1. you get 1 pack for the first win and a second pack after ETC (8. enemy)

2. after you pick one class, you can play as long as you want. if you lose, you can fight the enemy again. if you want to change the class, you have to start from 0. (need to view the deck + retire) ETC is stronger then the other bosses imo, so you have to start from 0 if you cant beat him with one class.

3. weaker clases:
Druid: fun deck, but loses steam to fast imo.
DK: i read a lot that he is one of the weakest ones

Priest: seems to be very fragile and luck based

4. strong clases:
Paladin: decent aggro deck. can get a good amount of value from his divine shields. just rush the enemy down. games are fast.
Hunter: big minion deck. the first rounds are kinda slow, but you often have enough tools to stay alive. at round 7/8 you get your Banjo T-Rex out. the enemy doesnt have much hard removal, so you just mow everything down with your big boy. getting him to 30/30 isnt rare.
warlock: have not tested him, but i read often that he is strong.

good luck

hi there. i was crafting Lightforged Cariel and Lord Barov for a libram deck, and i cant get that "big + infinite" feeling. before crafting more cards, i wanted to ask here about: Immortal Prelate

most decks I found are super old, so: you guys have any ideas wich interactions are still strong, which are too weak and which are new and useable. and how would you weight them? 

1. Attack/health 10/10

a 1 attack minion will not save you in the long run. but cariel (maybe polkelt to pull her) will give prelate enough stats in the long run. so you dont need many of those buffs? 

2. Infinite value 9/10

i like the idea that you have a constand stream of minions and that you are close to immune to fatique. desperate stand and gift of luminance ensure that enough prelates are available. does desperate stand make too many minions? how many copys do you aim for? 4-5? 

3. Strongest Stats 9/10

a lot of late-game decks dont care if you play like a 8/8 minion on turn 10+, so you want some extra buffs on it. while taunt/rush/lifesteal all look super good. i feel, you dont NEED all of them. how do you value buff cards in general?

4. Taunt 5/10

nice to have and sometimes super strong. but can be compensated with lifesteal/rush, if you dont get it. a single sunfury protector can buff 2 minions at once for 2 mana. dont need much more then 1-2 of them? 

5. Rush 8/10

having to much buff cards might be problematic, cause you missing removals. rush can somehow help with dangerous minions. broomstick is cheap and can buff many minions. but is not compatible with call to adventure? 

6. Lifesteal 6/10

against aggro, face damag and fatique very good. not that usefull against otk decks.

1 copy of lightforged blessing is enough? 

7. Card Draw 7/10

ideally, you want like 3-4 prelates in you deck (?) buffed with taunt/rush etc. Cariel will buff attack/health later on, so you want to cycle your deck pretty fast? card draw on prelate itself? 

7.1 Draw specific cards

how do you feel about call to adventure and pokelt to draw your key cards? 

8. Da Undatakah

looks funny. love him. but to expensive? you rather want cariel from polkelt? 

9. Secondary stats

what about stats like: devine shield? maybe card draw? windfury? 

10. Libram

they will just full your hand later on. so not usefull? 

11. Cariel vs Making Mummies vs Val'anyr

the reborn paladin quest looks kinda funny. a lot of sticky minions to fight aggressive decks? but needs to many cards in deck? Valanyr scales harder with prelate, but doesnt offer the protection like cariels weapon. and those buff interactions looks like they lag the game. cariel is just to good for that deck?

Thanks!

I was really stupid, but I couldn't actually figure out how to start from 0 again, you have to view deck and retire.

I ended up with Priest, which whilst good against a lot of the levels.  You need to realise that you want to be very face aggressive from the start and hope the opponent doesn't have an answer to the scaling overheal minion, if the game goes long you lose.   It's incredibly difficult/luck based to win against ETC with Priest and I would have loved to retire and start over.  I had to bash myself against it for a lot of attempts.

I would put Priest on the weaker decks, it's very strong if they don't have an answer to a very early 1/4 which scales with overheal Holy Champion then you go face and win quickly, but it has very little draw and if you don't get a lucky mulligan it's very difficult to win.

Dunno, they are probably better persons that someone randomly complaining on an internet forum about people playing good decks to win

Pirate Rogue is an efficient deck to climb from d5 to legend, but also a bit boring and one-dimensional. I assume once the make legend many players simply switch to more 'fun' decks

You can always try my deck that I made a week ago: https://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/1409061-tempo-divine-shield-immortal-prelate

It makes use of Dun Baldar Bridge, Drek'Thar and Call to Arms as most expensive cards, which can/ should all be used as soon as you have them in hand which makes Divine Favor a good option. Not to mention I can often play them on turn 3 due to Murkwater Scribe. This deck also doesn't solely rely on Immortal Prelate which makes it more consistent. Ways to buff the prelate are (Prismatic Jewel Kit, Dun Baldar Bridge, Seafloor Savior, Ring of Courage, Noble Mount and Alliance Bannerman). It does quite well in diamond.

Minus is, this deck is straightforward to play and doesn't run Lightforged Cariel but at this point I don't know if Immortal Prelate could ever work (competitively) in a hand control deck (since it's always vulnerable to silence).

At the moment Whirlpool is played there are no other copies of Prelate anywhere else to destroy. So first Whirlpool destroys the Prelate and afterwards the deathrattle triggers that shuffles a copy in your deck. I think it works as intended

Hi I'm glad I could help, the deck you posted looks promising and I'll try it myself.

2. I use double Gift of Luminance. I have no experience with Desperate Stand but I can definitely see where it goes wrong.

2b. Yes priest (and sometimes shaman with Devolve, Devolving Missiles) can be very annoying. Luckily, most other decks are kinda okay. The (only) way I found to bypass that is to tempo play for board so the opponent is forced to use silence before you play the prelate.

2c. Zola might work but I don't know for sure. If you decide to cut Drek'Thar you could consider Queen Azshara + Holy Maki Roll + extra pyromancer. Other options could be Cariel Roame/ Blademaster Samuro/The Leviathan. A last option could be to include more 2 cost minions (example Bloodmage Thalnos) and add a second Call to Arms. 

2d. Faceless Manipulator is kinda slow, maybe 1 copy could work.

1b. You can consider cutting them because I suggested it with you not having much minions on board and right now it's dangerous for your own minions. Also I forgot to mention this but it'll always be useless against quest hunter. 

1a. I personally play low cost/cycle but that's also because I lack some key cards for midrange. 

Good luck!

Hi I have some experience with immortal prelate so I'll try to answer your questions:

1a) If you depend on cariel to buff the prelate you should have a control heavy deck and the first option is highlander (with High Priest Thekal, Mountain Giant, Sir Finley, Sea Guide) which is probably the best. 

1b) If you don't have all those cards you could try a deck with Wild Pyromancer, Equality, City Tax, Holy Maki Roll, Lord Barov and Righteous Defense. Equality shouldn't be played with Immortal Prelate so you can add Knight of Anointment to draw your holy spells faster and Crystology to draw Knight of Anointment.

2) At least 3, but 4-5 is optimal.

3) If you play control you can take your time but burst buff like Righteous Defense can help a lot.

4) Spikeridged Steed can be fun and strong but only include 1 copy because it's bad in opening hand. Sunfury Protector doesn't give any buff and is handfill in the first 8 turns so I don't recommend.

5) Animated Broomstick is too slow since you can only play it turn 8+ in the control version. 

6) Lightforged Blessing is quite slow but can be fun with Wild Pyromancer.

7) Cycling is indeed important. You can consider adding 3 mana naga or Divine Favor.

7.1) I would never use Call to Adventure because it limits your deckbuilding options too much. Crystology should be enough.

8) Da Undatakah is way too slow.

9) Blessing of Wisdom is too slow and doesn't work in a control deck.

10) If you put some Libram of Wisdom tempo into your deck by using Sunwing Squawker and add some synergy like Kotori Lightblade, Eydis Darkbane, Veteran Warmedic, Gadgetzan Auctioneer or charge minions, libram can be fun. 

11) Unfortunately, making mummies is way too slow. I have no experience with Val'anyr but the cariel weapon should be better.

I'll just add something that works for me: By using Drek'Thar and Call to Arms you can very reliably thin out your deck and put the prelate on the battlefield which makes them an ideal target for field buffs if they manage to survive a turn. It's a different way of playing (more like pirate warrior) but for me it kinda works.
