to bad you can't go full northshire anymore. reliquary is a good card with a little draw maybe a buff or alongside another minion early on, but there's just no room for it anywhere. been trying for some sort of non-cancer deck, not looking good so far.
Check out my Highlander Priest, been having some decent success with it. I think the card is only worth playing if you also play Activate the Obelisk alongside it - being able to play a 4-6 lifesteal minion late in the game is pretty valuable, and so is playing a 9-11 taunt with lifesteal. In decks without Activate the Obelisk, a late Reliquary of Souls is just a weak draw, and the Reliquary Prime isn't that powerful when it can't continuously be buffed.
Someone suggested making the 1/1 albatrosses draw a card after being drawn - and the deathrattle could be changed to a battlecry instead without nerfing the stats at all. Seems like a decent change.
HS Replays is worthless now. Many streamers and pros are either eccentric or memers, many are good players with any deck, many judge cards by feelings and habits which is biased. And then people netdeck from them. The result is that majority of netdecked ladder decks are wrong and simply bad. Very few pros are actually good deckbuilders.
Reliquary of Souls isn't particularly good without Activate the Obelisk - and most of res and highlander Priests don't play it. It's far from the strongest card in the deck, but it's a decent addition. On top of that you need to remember that playing Reliquary of Souls does not equal to playing Reliquary Prime.
If you want to assess the overall performance of a card, it's better to look at Drawn WR rather than Played WR, because finisher cards have an "artificially" higher played winrate (because you normally play them to finish the game).
And the other way around, board clearers like Soul Mirror will usually be used in situations where you're pretty fucked.
It's not even about exploiting, it's just a good mechanic on its own, that way when people disenchant cards they don't want, they won't risk opening them in packs again.
Geddon deals up to 14 to enemies and he's rarely used.
This one deals 6 randomly and has 6-drop stats and is suddenly op?
Have you realized that it deals 6 damage to face when the opponent's board is empty? Have you realized that it has the potential to remove big minions and massively help trading. Baron Geddon is a 2 damage repetitive AOE (that also hits your own board and hero), she's way more powerful than that. Not to mention she has one more health and can be played as a two-of.

Albatross is by definition a counter to every archetype because it delays every archetype's draws.
