the minions are cheap but honestly there arent enough minions in the deck to make lady prestor worth it i think.. 

i think defender of argus is a key card in the deck since it often shields too big minions and can really help against aggro. the razorleaf is a great statted minion for 3 mana so i also like it in the deck. i agree about stockades gaurd it can easily be replaced by a good class card.

i think if you play cards like illuminate and handmaiden you have to play Lyra the sunshard and than it just becomes miracle priest instead..

thanks! glad you liked it!

yeah northshire is a great card!

you are probably right. this deck is just a 1st version and i put some cards like darkspear berserker in even though they are not that good because i wanted to put many silence option. after trying the deck out cards like that and the mammoth for example should be changed for some draw such as gift of naaru.  

here are my ratings for the new 25 legendary cards for Scholomance Academy - standard mode only.

1. Ace Hunter Kreen - 4 stars

will be a staple in highlander hunter but other then that wont see competitive play because it doesn't fit the hunter or DH aggressive playstyle

2. Shan'do Wildclaw - 5 stars

such a versatile card. will be a staple in highlander hunter and will also create a new beast archetype for druid and maybe also for hunter too.

3. Speaker Gidra - 3 stars

would have been rated better in the current meta but in the upcoming meta will sadly fall short as it's a bit too slow. also it requires a high mana spell to become an actual threat and big spell shaman will not be a strong deck in the new meta.

4. Ras Frostwhisper - 4 stars

if spell damage mage\shaman succeeds in being a top tier deck this card will be the absolute core of the deck and might be a 5 star card. worth mentioning that it can hit face with his ability, on top of being fairly statted.

5. Jandice Barov - 3 stars

this card generates a lot of stats for 5 mana but it is too random and also too slow (doesn't impact the board unless it summons a rush minion) so it won't make the cut for aggro rough (secret passage rouge).

6. Doctor Krastinov - 3 stars

compared to captain Greenskin the doctor has an immidiate impact on the board (rush) so it can fit in control warrior with some weapons and can help any warrior/rouge weapon based deck.

7.Lord Barov - 5 stars

this cards is bonkers in almost any warrior or paladin deck which makes it an easy 5 star card. probably will work better in warrior.

8. High Abbess Alura - 3 stars

the card will fit well in libram paladin but still this deck is not a good enough deck and won't be one in the upcoming meta. also the randomness of the card makes it less reliable.

9. Disciplinarian Gandling - 4 stars

could easily be a 5 star card in the current meta but i thimk zoolock will not be good enough compare to other aggro decks that will dominate the new meta. still, this card alongside thekkan can make lackey-zoolock a really good deck.

10. Soulciologist Malicia - 3 stars

this cards has a lot of potential to be very swingy but it really depends on how the meta is going to turn out to be. i think it will be a better match for warlock because DH is too aggressive for this kind of a control oriented card.

11. Star Student Stelina - 2 stars

has some potential to be a combo disruptor, but i think it will only see play if the meta will be too combo oriented and glide won't be enough or will get nerfed.

12. Forest Warden Omu - 5 stars

possibly the strongest card as it enables a crazy OTK combo on its own. will probably get nerfed pretty soon.

13. Professor Slate 1 star

doesn't fit hunter playstle even if it had more cheap damage spells to support it.

14. Mozaki, Master Duelist - 2 stars

could see some play in spell damage mage but too slow and too hard to take a good advantage of.

15. Turalyon, the Tenured - 1 stars

at first glance it seems like a decent removal card for paladin, but for 8 mana it is definetly too slow and will see play only in a very slow and control oriented meta.

16. Mindrender Illucia - 5 stars

maybe the best card in this list as it is so versatile and disruptive to the opponent. will be played in any priest deck and good against any kind of deck.

17. Infiltrator Lilian - 4 stars

easy inclusion in any rouge deck and a stealth rouge deck especially can take advantage of this card. an amazing card to play on curve

18. Instructor Fireheart - 3 stars

will fit perfectly in control shaman but since shaman is not going to be strong in the upcoming meta this gets just 3 stars as it cant make shaman strong on its own.

19. Archwitch Willow - 1 stars

too slow for standard. 

20. Rattlegore - 1 stars

too slow for standard.

21. Sphere of Sapience - 5 stars

such an amazing card for any combo/control deck. will definetly see a lot of play and will force a lot of players to include ooze in there decks

22. Vectus - 3 stars

this card is very strong on its own but in reality, i cant see a deck that can revolve around this card and be really competitive hence it only gets 3 stars. with the right support can become a 5 star card.

23. Lorekeeper Polkelt - 4 stars

could be strong in aggro decks but the question is if it will find a combo deck to fit into, only time will tell.

24. Headmaster Kel'Thuzad 2 stars

to slow card and will probably not make the cut even for the heaviest control decks.

25. Keymaster Alabaster 1 stars

the worst legendary of the set (for standard mode). has a very slow effect that is dependent on your opponents plays. still, will be an amazing card to summon randomly.

in conclusion, i think the power level of the set is through the roof and almost every legendary card in this list is good.

personally i think all the 5 star cards are safe crafts but as always the meta can be very shifty.

i opened 111 packs and got only 5 legendaries! and 3 of them (the first 3) were the worst 3 of the expansion (oblivitron, chef nomi and the boom reaver) and no golden legendary. so no, they didn't change the odds, you were just very lucky, in the opposite of me.

after that i was so upset and spent all my dust (15000) to buy all the legendaries i want (something i usually don't do before the meta is settled.
