??? u complain for almost all class what is wrong with you? so only cancer warrior, shaman, mage and hunter are fine? so u ban more than 50% of class. What a creative post. At this moment is nice that rogue can play galakrond and highlander, druid play spell, big/dragon or even still quest, priest galakrond and ressurect, warlock combo quest so we have many archetypes...

DH is favored against priest

Prior to the nerf the most popular DH list played priestess of fury. It was always a very strong play to get raging felscreamer into priestess of fury on turn 5 (and it still is a very strong play, but it is inconsistent). The deck enjoyed a favourable matchup against every other deck save for warrior. One issue with priestess of fury post nerf is that it dies to bloodboil brute now as well as rush minions like Rusteed Raider and Siamat. It can also die to some two card combos like skipper + korkron elite. People therefore started dropping it to run a much more aggro orientated list with cards like beaming sidekick but also we see frozen shadoweaver being teched in to help with the warrior matchup.

HsReplay refers to all DH decks as tempo DH but this is an aggro deck through and through. See the deck list and stats below for legend rankings:

This list was hit by the nerfs a small amount because of the nerf to crimson sigil runner. Despite this, vicious syndicate recommends to keep running it. Some people though replace it with cards such as blazing battlemage. The above is not the only viable list for aggro DH, but the important aspect is priestess of fury (and by extension raging felscreamer) is out and beaming sidekick is in. Let's now look at the win rate for this deck:

We can see this aggro deck beats everything quite easily except warrior decks. Where the priestess of fury version struggled a little bit vs face hunter, this more aggro version is definitely favoured. The nerfs just meant that more DHs are now running what was arguably always the higher win rate list and again it cements itself as the best deck in standard despite three rounds of nerfs. 

There have been people on this forum complaining they struggle vs priest. This is a skill issue because aggro DH definitely does not struggle in the legend ranks. The matches you lose may feel frustrating when priest does priest things, but ultimately the deck is favoured. One thing you can take comfort in is that not only are frozen shadoweavers good vs warrior, they are 4 attack minions and so do well vs priest.

Don't be surprised if DH gets nerfed again because it's still well and truly the best deck for laddering. It's super fast, usually with game duration on average 7.5 turns. Its only counters are really hard to play and so arn't played very often and there are no really hard counters where you have almost no chance to win. Aggro DH therefore enjoys a meta where it has mostly free reign. That being said, aggro DH may be the only thing keeping quest warlock in check as otherwise quest warlock is nearing oppressively high win rates against a lot of decks. Further, it's literally the only deck challenging HL hunter to any significant degree.

A more balanced meta would in my opinion:

1. see DH having a viable highlander deck. Currently its legendaries arn't good enough in long games and it can't cheat mana like rogue and mage can - DH is just really awful going the long haul since cards like kayn are only good in aggro decks and Nethrandamus has to be in your hand to upgrade. It functions like a second dragonqueen alexstraza but with the disadvantage of being a bad top deck. 

2. Aggro DH having a couple more counters in the meta (maybe if shaman and paladin were fixed so they had some viable decks their healing would be able to compete. Pure/Libram Paladin probably should beat aggro DH but it doesn't since it has no draw and too weak of an early game and call to adventure is too slow/bad).

3. HL Hunter having some more counters in the meta (again looking at you pure/libram paladin, you should be a thing here but just arn't!). 

playing DH and complain, what a bad joke xD

Best deck against priest is highlander hunter, enjoy the free wins!!
