How are people gonna say this is a weak card? Compare it to priest 6 mana dragon 4/4 which MIGHT kill a minion. This is 2 mana more, but it basically guarantees a minion kill and you then get a 3/9 body with the potential to do it again to a big minion. It basically has to be removed before you can play something else big. You're crazy if you don't think this sees a lot of play.
You're stuck in gold, but it's not because of your skill? That makes absolutely no sense. If you're stuck in gold with any class, it's 100% because of your skill. Sorry to burst your bubble. Keep practicing. Maybe watch some top streamers.
I know people want to ASSUME it's not rigged, but I played hundreds and hundreds of games these past couple months (maybe even thousands) due to corona and when I play at diamond 5 to legend using a certain deck/class for a while, I will match its counter over and over again, then when I go to switch to a deck that counters THAT one, all of a sudden the deck/class I was just playing against repeatedly is NOWHERE to be seen, and I'm now playing against other classes/decks that counter the NEW deck over and over. This happens even more frequently on your game that will give you legend (I faced a direct counter 7 times in a row last season each time I was going for my legend game).
Now obviously there is no way to keep people at exactly 50%, so the people arguing that because some decks have close to 60% winrate its not rigged are clueless. The system is designed to TRY to keep you at 50%, but with random luck and RNG and human misplays, it's not always going to be successful.
It's definitely not coincidence. There's some hidden variables here.
There are many priests that don't even run this card in many decks (including me and I'm a priest main).
On a side note and humblebrag, I just went from diamond 5 to legend while only losing 3 maybe 4 games (I guess that would be over 80% winrate) with a self-created highlander priest deck that I kind of made for shits and giggles to try it out. I played a little bit of everything and thankfully dodged most rogues (I think I only played 2 and broke even with them). When I started playing it, I had legit never come across a highlander priest deck this season, but along the way I actually ran into 2 other priests also playing highlander so maybe it's starting to come along a bit. I play on an ipad so I have no proof of all the matchups or winrate, but it was definitely around 80 or maybe even a little more. Lost to a rogue once and hunter with perfect curve twice with maybe one other loss in there to a demon hunter that also curved out perfect. Had some really close games and a little luck since the only way you can get 80% is with both skill and some luck.
Rogue players (which is the strongest AND most played class) see no issue with these priests you speak of. It's basically an auto win for the rogue. Then again, most things are.
OP is just mad when he actually has to think before making his moves, and can't just go face.

Anyone else confused as hell by all this? Like holy crap why does it need to be this complicated? Why does it need to be changed at all?

No DH nerfs? Really?

Done.

Umm, is this minion untargetable as well? Because it doesn't say "other" minions. If so, this card is going to be very underrated.

5/4 and a spell literally for free. GREAT IDEA!

Should be a 1/1. Way too good.

One card only played as a singleton in certain highlander decks nerfed by 1 mana. I think you'll survive...

With sac pact nerf, only warlock deck that can sometimes perform well is zoolock. I can't even remember the last time I've lost to a gala warlock.

I legit got 3 of the same rare card and then 2 of the same rare card in my rewards for legend. 5 total cards, but only 2 different ones. Woo hoo...
