The point is to draw the whole deck by turn 10. That's why there is Brann Bronzebeard in there.
The win condition is that it can consistently draw the deck and then finish with THE COMBO after playing Justicar Trueheart and Raza the Chainedon a previous turn.
Am I the only one who thinks that highlander priest decks advertised as OTK priest are missing the point?
I feel that a true OTK deck reliably draws into its combo and uses it to win the game instead of having an OTK if everything aligns. I am experimenting with a Raza the Chained-Auctionmaster Beardo OTK list, where Raza is used either after Justicar Trueheart or double Shadowform with only few cards left, and can produce an OTK even without Emperor Thaurissan.
In order to consistently achieve this, the deck needs insane drawing power and good removal. My list is probably too heavy on draw and not enough on removal, but I think there is a potential for a really innovative deck here and I have yet to see anyone theorycrafting with a similar concept.
Do you people have any idea how to make this viable? Could this be viable?
Really good job! Can't wait to play this! I have two main comments:
First, I think Wild Pyromancer would be a really good fit! The current list can struggle against aggro, but with so many cheap spells, that card stops any early aggression. Moreover, it synergises really well with Acolyte of Pain.
Second, is that the one big problem with this deck is that your winrate entirely depends on when you draw Eydis Darkbane. If you draw her late and you have a Gadgetzan Auctioneer on board, you fatigue yourself to death. If your enemy has any board, you just don't have enough damage to finish them, as you can only hold 10 cards, from which I doubt more than 7-8 will be buff spell.
What happens if I have Poisoned Blade equipped, a Buccaneer on board and I use my hero power again. Does this modified hero power still count as equipping a weapon? In other words do I get the +1 bonus from the Buccaneer or only from the Poisoned Blade description?
There is not much to it actually. I needed a secret to stay for Illuminator and wanted to try Effigy as it works nicely with overcosted battlecry cards like Antique Healbot and Azure Drake. Then I realized what if Baron Rivendare is on board when a Mad Scientist pops so I added Counterspell. I agree that the secret choices are dubious, but I am not sure what to add, maybe Duplicate? What do you suggest?

The combo (Emperor Thaurissan helps but not necessary):
1. Auctionmaster Beardo
2. Embrace the Shadow > hero power
3. cheap spell + hero power
4. repeat step 3. until enemy is dead

Void Terror and Power Overwhelming are insane. Haven't lost a single game thus far.

That is why you need another win condition! I am thinking either Prophet Velen + 2 Mind Blast or the good old Divine Spirit + Inner Fire shenanigans.

I will definitely try out: Hobgoblin taunt warrior, Rhonin missile madness, Confuse combo priest, OTK priest and face priest

Rhonin for my 80 missiles OTK mage, Nexus-Champion Saraad as it is a win condition in itself and Eydis Darkbane, Fjola Lightbane and Confessor Paletress for my TGT priest deck.
