Used this deck to beat Heroic Prince Malchezaar on first attempt (with some luck).  In first phase, mulligan hard for Shadow Word: Pain and Priest of the Feast plus any of the buff cards (Power Word: Shield and Velen's Chosen).  Cleric and Flash were also helpful for card draw and surviving the early onslaught, and Priest of the Feast was key to allow you to keep your face healthy while using your hero power on your minions.  The first boss made some suboptimal moves to go after my clerics and priest of the feast which gave me time to start buffing Priest of the Feast up (and healing in the process) and keeping healed with hero power.  When something dies, use Onyx Bishop or Resurrect for a second chance.

Try and keep the first phase going until turn 8 or 9 at least and until you have the following in your hand: Two Divine Spirit, one Inner Fire, one Mind Control, one Velen's Chosen and ideally at least one Entomb.  Then finish off the first boss however you can.

For the Malchezzar phase, he'll probably dump most of his hand during his first turn.  If it is too scary to let slide for a turn, use Entomb (to summon a 6-coster) and at most one other spell plus your minions to clean it up, but ENSURE YOU LEAVE AT LEAST ONE CHARGE ON THE STAFF.  When you can, use Mind Control on one of the infernals and hope for a 10-drop from the staff that has high health (I got lucky and got Deathwing, but anything with at least 8 health I could have won with).  Then hope that it survives Malchezzar's next turn.  If it does, use Velen's Chosen (if you have it) then 2x Divine Spirit then Inner Fire and you will have a minion with somewhere between 48 and 72 attack (depending how far you were able to buff) for the OTK (or 2TK at most) on Malchezzar.

Definitely requires some luck, and the deck definitely isn't perfect.  I don't have Lightbomb but imagine it would work well anywhere in this match (maybe replacing Entomb).  Northshire Cleric was helpful for early card draw, but also can mess up your resurrections so maybe there's a better alternative for card draw through spells that synergizes with Priest of the Feast (dare I even suggest Purify?).

Good luck to others, hope this helps those who are looking for a budget path to the card back!
