Okay I know Silence Priest has been a thing for a long time and it's very much a class identity but hear me out.
The most important cards in the new Silence Priest deck are good ol' Ancient Watcher (2-mana Yeti), the brand new Ancient Watcher (3-mana 5/6), and the all-important Dalaran Librarian (River Crocolisk w/ "Silence adjacent minions"). And these are all neutral class cards. (Faceless Rager and Sunfury Protector are also good neutral-class synergistic cards that are run in some versions of the deck!)
Please note, I do understand that the Priest-specific 0-mana Silence and 4-mana Unsleeping Soul (silence, then copy) are fantastic cards in this deck, as well as double Divine Spirit into Inner Fire/Topsy Turvy for a very cool high-roll.
So I wanted to ask the community, what other classes do you think could pull off a Silence-themed deck with those eight-to-ten cards (optional Sunfury) as a base? We're not trying to build a tier-1 deck, but maybe something could make it work.
First (bad) ideas:
Paladin...? The loss of Divine Favor makes it really hard to think of any kind of good draw engine, but you know, summoning an overstatted minion, then silencing it and buffing it to high heaven just sounds awesome!
Warlock! This is a heavily minion-based strategy, and noone's better at that than Warlock! Inifinite draw is cool, and the new Rafaam is always good fun for when a zoo deck runs out of steam. Plot Twist in particular fishes for the best cards you want, although it is to be noted that Watchers won't usually work with Fel Lord Betrug. Such a shame.
So! Any ideas?

Ooooh I like the Rogue idea. Spellpower Rogue with a self-Silence package? Think of all the value with Fan of Knives, Shiv... Headcrack (kappa).
And Cheap Shot. Yikes.
@Kaladin Yea, thanks and all, but I already knew about Silence and Unsleeping Soul. Read the post, that wasn't the point :/
@Ivydoom that sounds like fun! I had tried a spell damage mage once but a silence package with freeze sounds cool (pun intended)
@Rang_Dipkin That looks pretty cool too. What do you think of adding Zuljin and a pair of the Wyvern-calling card?
