[Archived] S7 Hearthstone Legendary Priest Control Deck

Recommended Posts

Guest AwwsumAnthony

Yeah, wow. What a shitty deck. You have you to be extremely lucky to actually draw all the cards you need to play that taunt combo. Then not to mention my opponent can usually just bring down my wall in just a few turns before I can actually do anything else because of how high cost my cards are. Waste of arcane dust if you ask me. Was doing better with the mid budget hunter aggro deck.

This deck was initially designed for the meta game that was full of druids and other mid-range / control decks and it performed pretty well, however lately the meta game is extremely aggressive and priest simply doesn't work well in an aggressive environment.

After I've read your comments, I decided to go play and see what could potentially be improved. The deck performed really well as I started with a nice 4:0 win streak, playing against 2 shamans, 1 clueless warrior and a druid, however my odds rapidly changed once I started meeting hunters and other aggressive decks. I dropped below 50% win ratio after 12 games and decided to tech the priest to suit the meta game better and to give you guys a better priest deck.

This is what I've come up with:

2x Circle of Healing
2x Power Word: Shield
1x Shadow Word: Pain 
2x Acidic Swamp Ooze
2x Sunfury Protector
2x Wild Pyromancer
2x Shadow Word: Death
2x Injured Blademaster
1x Shadow Madness

2x Auchenai Shadowpriest

2x Sen'jin Shieldmasta
2x Holy Nova
1x Faceless Manipulator
1x Holy FIre
1x Ragnaros
1x Ysera

The deck started performing really well and I managed to bump my win ratio back - went 15:7 with this version. This deck lost majority of the "taunt" combo, which makes this deck similar to the other version of our legend priest deck and we will most likely be removing one unless I come up with something better in the next few days.

If any of you guys will be trying the decklist that I've posted, let me know how it goes for you and we will update the deck based on the feedback you guys provide.

Thanks,
Regards,
Poyo

Poyo,

 

Thanks for the input. I wasn't meaning to be rude if thats how it came off. I'm very appreciative of the work and information you do here on icy veins.  This deck is fairing much better.

i dont have rags  and i sort of replaced it with demolisher, and added a knife juggler, but it really cant compare to a rag, saving the dust for it.

I am using this with exception of substituting 1sunfury protector for defender if argus and 1 shadow word death for shadow word pain. The key for me is to wait until I am generating 4-5 mama before playing cards unless I need to do a quick take out. When I am willing to accept some upfront damage to ensure I have the correct card combos I am wining 4 out of 5. Thanks for the deck build

"Useless Priest Control Deck" is a better name for this deck !

I played Hearthstone for a while and when i tryed this deck i was so disapointed ...

fighting against Hunters or other champions with low hp cards is good. But when you play against players with good builded decks this deck just looks so useless and you just try to outplay the game somehow or trick the enemy player. I found fighting against monsters like Chillwing Yeti, Sen'jin Shieldmasta, Oasis Snapjaw, Gurubashi Berserker, Archmage, Sunwalker and many others to be really annoying. This deck is for people who has the legendary cards. Without them its just pointless to use it. So if you already have a good priest deck and you don't have the legendary cards Ragnaros the Firelord and Ysera just don't go for that useless deck. In my opinion you don't need legendary priest control deck without the legendary cards and just don't waste your time to craft the cards ... Firstly craft the legendary ones and use it on your deck!

If you could provide us with a video of you playing that deck, we would be more than happy to help and point out what you did wrong. Criticising like this does not really help and calling minions "monsters" makes it hard to take you seriously.

      Hearthstone is taking a bold step into the StarCraft universe with "Heroes of StarCraft: The Great Dark Beyond," a 49-card mini-set launching in January 2025.
      Featuring iconic factions like Zerg, Protoss, and Terran, complete with legendary leaders Sarah Kerrigan, Artanis, Jim Raynor, this set blends StarCraft nostalgia with Hearthstone's gameplay.
      Additionally, Arena Mode is getting a massive overhaul, introducing shorter Normal Arena runs and a high-stakes Underground Arena with a game matching "re-draft on loss" mechanic, giving you the option to re-draft cards, edit your deck, and keep your run alive, after you lose.
      The year ahead promises 3 expansions, including the Emerald Dream's battle between Old Gods and Druids, a return to Un'Goro Crater, and a Chromie-led journey through alternate realities.

      Hearthstone: Heroes of StarCraft – The Great Dark Beyond Mini-Set  
      Early next year, Hearthstone is going beyond Warcraft and into... Heroes of StarCraft! This special Mini-Set will have a whopping 49 new cards across three themed factions, which show what the StarCraft universe would look like in the Hearthstone Tavern. Each faction is made up of cards that can be used across multiple classes, including an iconic Hero card. 
       Zerg 
      Death Knight, Demon Hunter, Hunter, and Warlock have joined the Zerg! Led by the formidable  Sarah Kerrigan, they will have aggressive cards that win the game by swarming the board. 
       Protoss 
      Druid, Mage, Priest, and Rogue fight for the Protoss Empire. Led by the High Templar Artanis, they will have powerful, high-cost cards that are made cheaper throughout the game. 
       Terran 
      Paladin, Shaman, and Warrior make up the Terran forces, led by the one and only Jim Raynor. They will command Battlecruisers—a special take on the Starship mechanic from The Great Dark Beyond. 
      The Mini-Set will feature a slew of StarCraft units which are sure to invoke nostalgia, as well as the Terran-armored Murloc, Grunty, and new, thematic music. You can chart a course for the Heroes of StarCraft Mini-Set, launching in January 2025! More announcements, details, and card reveals are coming closer to launch. 
       Major Arena Updates 
      Then, for the first time in 10 years, Arena Mode is getting a major overhaul. With that update, there will be two kinds of Arena to choose from. Normal Arena will be shorter form, allowing you to complete your runs more quickly. Competitive Arena players will be able to play in the higher-stakes Underground Arena, with longer runs and a new feature: Re-Draft on Loss. Re-Draft on Loss means that, after you lose, you’ll have the option to re-draft cards, edit your deck, and keep your run alive. 
      Ratings will also be added to both Normal and Underground Arena. Normal, skill-based matchmaking will be used for Normal Arena. Underground Arena throws caution to the wind and lets you face off against opponents of all skill levels. 
      This major Arena revamp is coming in the first half of next year. Look out for more details about this update closer to when it goes live. 
      A Preview of the Year Ahead: The Year of the Raptor!
      On top of those updates, Hearthstone has an exciting year of expansions ahead, with much-requested themes, locations, and familiar faces across Azeroth. 
      In the first expansion of the year, enter the Emerald Dream and join the battle between the Old Gods and the Druids of the Emerald Dream for the fate of the World Tree. Things will heat up even more when the Druids of the Flame light up the Mini-Set (releasing earlier than normal this year, during the 32.2 Patch). 
      The second expansion of the year will be Hearthstone’s first-ever sequel: the return to Un’Goro Crater! Join Elise on a hunt for a mythical, lost Tortollan city. When you find it, join the Tortollans in a festival to celebrate the mighty dinosaurs of the crater in the 33.4 Mini-Set. 
      In the third expansion of the year, travel with Chromie through alternate realities to recruit Legendary Warcraft heroes like you’ve never seen them before. Leading to the 34.4 Mini-Set: an epic showdown against Murozond at the end of time!
