Cards in this set seem more complex and demanding some thought while playing which is good, but I do worry that meta would not be shaken up much. 

First class I will try out building decks for is big non jade (maybe quest) Druid - some new crazy control tools over there with 5 mana wall of taunts and that bonkers 10 mana spell.

In April season I was rank 1 with 3 stars on the last day of the month, finished that season at rank 2. Yesterday I was rank 1 with 3 stars, lost 2 ranks in a couple of hours after a losing streak filled with nightmare matchups and now will not have enough time to hit legend this month. Wonderful feeling.

there are several directions to go for this quest: all about the tempo The Curator version with lowish curve, Nzoth and maybe Cthun. Here is my attemp at Cthun taunt quest warrior to see if all cards needed for this idea fits, more comments in deck description: http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/764378-ungoro-cthun-quest-warrior

I fear 6 taunt minions +2 from Direhorn Hatchling are not enough, you will need to go through 20 turns at least to trigger the quest. Instead of barongeddon add that new 8 mana taunt dragon that deals 2dmg to all. 

Its pretty hard to replace, but maybe 2nd entomb, dr boom or maybe Barnes 

Didnt put deathloards into this deck initially mainly because I didnt want Nzoth to bring them back and I hoped to get away without them, then had a good run from 5 to Legend and was not forced to do something about early game and put deathlords in, meta was friendly enough. Now for nova vs exc evil, there are two lightbombs + auchenai with circle to do what exc evil does and you dont give your opponent a tool to deal with your Nozht turn if you use nova. Often you can do pyromancer + nova to reach for that 3  damage. And obviously nova gives opportunities draw with northshire.  This deck crushes zoo hard as it is listed here, but since meta is everchanging, feel free to make adjustments as needed, good luck.

I also feel I will need to add ooze or Harrison in standard, Harrison instead of one Acolyte most probably as Harrison in this deck brings a risk of overdrawing and burning cards, especially vs Doomhammer.

Good to see meta of 2nd full month of Wild being friendly to this deck. Didnt go for wild legend again this month with this deck myself, just hit rank 5 rather quickly and switched to Arena for the rest of the month. Next month I will try a standard version of this deck on that ladder, just went for direct replacements for those shredders and belchers, here is the deck http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/579934-standard-nzoth-priest

Thank you very much for this, updating deck description with a link to your video. 

If you face enough mirror matches, warriors and other fatigue control vs control games, sure put Elise in. I just didnt need her last month, deck was performing well enough without her vs secredins and zoos mostly. Having Elise in the deck changes your play a bit, you start saving cards like Pyromancer in your hand for that Elise value instead of just dumping everything you have on the board. Out of this list if I would want to put Elise in, I think I would remove Curator.

2 X Excavated Evils perhaps. Maybe another entomb or shadow word death as well instead of Curator to deal with huge threats that are cleared by Lightbomb like Ragnaros, Dr Boom, or buffed mysterious challengers. But Lightbombs will be missed for sure, deck not as strong as with them.

When creating this deck I though "let's see if belchers are enough for taunt in this deck and if not I'll have to put Deathlords in". And then there were not that many pure aggro decks in the meta (secredin, zoo, tempo mage, patron/armor/nzoth warriors mostly), so I didnt really need Deathlords and kept winning without them. Would struggle to squeeze them into the deck as well (replace curator and 1 nova with deathlord maybe). Nzoth does need a taunt deathrattle minion to summon and that's Belchers in this deck.  In mirror matches Shadow Word Pain on Deathlord is a huge swing in your favor as well. But sure, coin+deathlord on turn 2 and then northshire+heal Deathlord on turn 3 is a very strong start indeed.

I think with 2Xauchenai+2Xcircle and 2XLightbombs we are covered here for 3health removal. On turn 7 you can also use Pyromancer + Nova to clear opponents 3 health minions (doesnt work on Grim Patrons obviously).  Also I dont want to give my opponent a card that helps to clear my post Nzoth board.  And as usual, Northshire+Nova is another draw opportunity. 

Having said that if you really need one card slot in the deck, taking out 1 Nova and put something else instead (Another entomb or shadow word death, Cairne, shifting shade, velens chosen, Elise, Eater of Secrets or some other tech) could be considerable. But this deck performed well for me last month as it was so I didnt have to experiment with 1 Nova deck.

Sneed's Old Shredder if you have him, then Dr Boom/2nd Entomb/Cairne/Sky Golem. Sylvanas replacement has to be deathrattle one somehow. Also, save some dust for Sylvanas, she's worth it.

Actually I had 1 Lightbomb in the deck up to around rank 4 I think. I remember I got angry that I lost to secredin because I didnt have Lightbomb in my hand to deal with opponent's board after I cleared all Challenger secrets, so I removed 1 of Curators and put second Lightbomb in to make sure I always have it hand when I need it. 

As for replacement - Eater of Secrets (wins vs freeze mage as well, useful vs hunter), another Shadow Word Death, Veleen Chosen (put this on Acolyte to get wonderdraw), Ooze, Dr Boom (why not :) ), second Entomb, maybe Escavated Evil, maybe Shadow Madness. With 2 Shadow Word Pains I didnt miss Cabal that much I think but sure its nice to steal Minibots and Flamewakers.  Shifting Shade also makes sense and its a very fun card, you can even steal opponent's Nzoth sometimes :)
