Any replacement for Priest of the Feast?

Replaced Shadow Madness w/ Baron Geddon, deck works not bad at all.

 0-5

It's far too dependant on draw.

I'm 0-2 against midrange shaman, you sure it works? I mean they just played on curve and I kept removing his minions but I sitll lost. :(

Decided to change it to include the nzoth package, and it ended up quite fun http://imgur.com/a/Kwm10

The one thing I'm still tweaking is indeed the Embrace the Shadow + Auchenai Soulpriest + Circle of Healing. It does feel clumsy at times, but on the other hand, reducing that amount of cards will reduce the consistency of the aoe combo: in other words, you might end up not having the circle 4-dmg aoe even after drawing 2/3 of your deck (costing you a game).

Right now, I'd rather replace Embrace the Shadow with another Auchenai Soulpriest than anything else. The idea behind the Auchenai Soulpriest, is to use it in conjunction with Flash Heal or Darkshire Alchemist for the additional removal.

The other possible move (specially given that there is also the Bloodmage Thalnos + Excavated Evil one), is reducing the combo to one single instance (1 Circle of Healing + 1 Heal-as-damage). Your deck will lose consistency in that regard, but it is the safest way to get a card slot for something of your liking (Forbidden Shaping, Sylvanas Windrunner, Shifting Shade, Harrison Jones, Arcane Giant, Mind Control).

Let me advise you against putting Prince Malchezaar in this deck. First of all, if anything, it should replace Elise Starseeker. Running both doesn't feel right to me. Now, I did try it at the beginning, and in general the result of Prince Malchezaar is underwhelming at best, and game-losing at worst (you should only run that card with tons of card draw, which this deck cannot have). One example: with Prince Malchezaar, I only managed to draw and use my second Shadowform on like 1/6th of my games...

Can you help for mulligans?

Try to keep cards playable on the early turns (Shadow Word: Pain, Shadowform, Thoughtsteal). The one hard to choose is Wild Pyromancer. Keep it when you are going second, or when you already have a Power Word: Shield, or when playing against deck very likely to be very zooish (Zoolock or that occasional Divine Shield Paladin). And remember the Pyromancer should almost never be played for tempo (at least on the early stages of the game), since he represents a good amount of aoe on his own. I still haven't figured out whether Bloodmage Thalnos should be kept or discarded. Do not keep it in general, except against Hunters I'd say, since they lack the tools to cheaply remove a 1/1.

Regarding the 4-drop(s), the only true 4-drop is Elise Starseeker. Neither Auchenai Soulpriest nor Priest of the Feast should be played on turn 4 for tempo, since getting them removed without getting any value out of them will most likely lose you the game (specially for Priest of the Feast). Still, keeping the Auchenai Soulpriest in the Mulligan might not be that bad of an idea since you only have one in the deck.

Discard anything that costs 5 mana or higher, discard Shadow Word: Death unless you are worried of Flamewreathed Faceless.

Awesome deck, I went from rank 25 to rank 20 without any single defeat !

100% winrate so far, are you the new deck builder god ?

PS : Dark Tyrande is so cool bro !

Those games must really be a challenge at rank 20
