A TheoryCraft Reno Priest OTK deck. The OTK plan is easy but requires preparation.
Play style
First you want to draw alot of cards with your low drops like Loot Hoarder, Northshire Cleric and Acolyte of Pain can also draw extra cards with Kabal Talonpriest and Wild Pyromancer.
Then play Raza the Chained, Justicar Trueheart and if necessary Emperor Thaurissan. Now for the one turn kill you want to play Auctionmaster Beardo with Embrace the Shadow then pump out spells like Mind Blast, Flash Heal and smorc free hero powers between each spell to his face. You can also combo it with Prophet Velen for some extra damage. This deck can reach insanely high damage, so even Warriors shouldn't be a problem OTK'ing.
I am most interested to see how Kazakus, you will probably find yourself picking Damage to all Minions, Draw cards, Gain X armor and the Deal X damage. 1 mana Deal X damage can also be really good for your OTK since it just doesn't deal damage to his face but also gives you another hero power.
Mulligan guide
coming soon
Cards that didn't make the cut
Entomb, strong card against control decks but way to slow and a dead card against aggressive decks. Steal minions by Pint-Size Potion with [card]Potion of Madness[/card] [card]Cabal Shadow Priest [/card] instead. [card]Potion of Madness[/card] will also be good early game against aggressive decks and it is a spell that can help with the combo!
Purify, really good card and good synergy with Kazakus, and even with Potion of Madness
Cards that can be good
After testing the deck now, there is some cards that you might like in the deck aswell, if you feel like some cards is not working.
Holy Nova is good against aggro and possible jade. Have synergy with Bloodmage Thalnos, Northshire Cleric and can work with Prophet Velen.
Shadow Word: Horror can be good against aggro, even better with Pint-Size Potion
Dragonfire Potion, is bad against dragon decks but is great when you do not play against all the dragon priest, but I feel that this card might be to inconsistent.
eZ legend, if 50 up votes i do mannequin challenge!
Change log
27 November, developed the guide.
28 November, - Thoughtsteal, + Gnomish Inventor, deck will need more draw to get to win condition.
1 December, added Harrison Jones removed Gnomish Inventor. Because of the god Damn aggro pirate warriors.
Justicar is going wild. you dingus.
Not until the next expansion mate,so we still have time.
how have you missed so many posts and comments that says no expansions are being rotated out?
Looks like it could use more draw to me.
Maybe
-1 Thoughtsteal
-1 Kabal Shadowpriest
+1 Polluted Hoarder
+1 Gnomist Inventor
Just anything to help burrow through your deck to get to your win condition. Thoughtsteal and KabalshadowPriest are good cards, but don't seem to help get you where you need to be. At least that's how I see it.
Prophet Velen + Auctionmaster + Embrace the Shadow + Flash Heal deals a total of: 8+10+8, that's 26. It requires a lot of preparation, but it's not THAT far fetched and you don't need Mind Blast to stay dead in your hand.
The downside is that you might use Flash Heal for yourself against aggro decks. Now i see why they made Raza the Chained a highlander card, it would've been busted in a normal deck.
"This deck can reach insanely high damage, so even Warriors shouldn't be a problem OTK'ing."
Can you outline for me exactly which cards you would play after playing Auctionmaster to do 60 dmg to a warrior?
Prophet Velen (6 mana) + Auctionmaster Beardo (2 mana)+Embrace the Shadow (1 mana)+Hero Power (8 damage)+Mind Blast (1 mana, 10 damage)+Hero Power (8 Damage)+Flash Heal (0 mana - 10 damage)+Hero Power (8 Damage)+Holy Smite (0 mana - 4 Damage) +Hero Power (8 damage)+Forbidden Shaping+Hero Power (8 damage)+Circle of Healing+Hero Power(8 damage).
Extremely unrealistic, but 72 damage in total and someone will make a youtube video out of it some day.
LE: You can even Pint-Size Potion for an extra 8 damage, so that's 80. Fairyland could come true in 1 out of 300 games.
" Auctionmaster Beardo (2 mana)+Embrace the Shadow (1 mana)"
Insert here additional hero power :)
Very specific, but can be done:
Emperor Thaurissan with these cards in hand: [card]Prophet Velen[/card], Mind Blast, Flash Heal and Auctionmaster Beardo. Also you need to have the Forbidden Shaping in hand when you OTK.
Now, you must have played both [card] Raza the Chained[/card] and [card]Justicar Trueheart [/card] Then you need to have played Kazakus and picked the 1 mana Deal X damage.
Now you play [card]Prophet Velen[/card], Auctionmaster Beardo and Embrace the Shadow. Then Hero Power (0 mana 8 dmg) + Mind Blast (0 mana 10 dmg) + Hero Power (0 mana 8 dmg) + Flash Heal (0 mana 10dmg) + Hero Power (0 mana 8 dmg) + 1 mana Deal X damage (0 mana 10 dmg) + Hero Power (0 mana 8 dmg) + Forbidden Shaping (0 mana 0 dmg) + Hero Power (0 mana 8 dmg).
The total damage is 60.
The real question is: how many times this sequence is possible against a Warrior, before he totally destroy you?
You can't, because it wil be your initial hero power that heals, not deals damage.
That is why you play Embrace the Shadow
Why is it Forsen's deck?
Well done, but too complicated in my opinion.
The basic combo you mentioned needs 4 specific cards (and requires at least 2 more as setup), total of 6 cards for a 22 damage (if I'm not mistaken).
A Velen + Mind Blast combo would require 3 cards and just 1 setup (Emperor). Total of 4 cards for 20 damage.
To sum up, I think you absolutely need Alexstrasza in this deck, because the real OTK is overwhelmingly complicated.
Then it could be a thing, and I'd be glad if it worked, because it would be a Reno deck with actually a strategy different than erosion.
Alexstrasza will me a must have anyway if Reno decks will be a frequent occurrence when the expansion hits.
Like this deck already :-)
Want to play this and to see dragon priest in future meta aslo :-)
The main problem of the Auchenai Circle of Healing combo is its inconsistency. Having one copy of each really isn't going to help that. I know that Auchenai can help with your OTK if you don't have Embrace the Shadow, but it just feels so bad when you have a dumb Circle of Healing sitting in your hand.
