GUIDE IS A WIP
One of my favorite decks to play. Very fun although hard to pilot. This combines the power of inner fire/divine spirit OTKs with the Velen spell damage OTKs. Name inspired by unicorn priest.
This deck is meant to either gain board control in the first 2 turns and keep it using removal spells or relinquish it and survive until turns 5-8 using removal spells where you can begin to contest it. Generally you will want to stall the game until your opponent runs out of steam and you have a massive card advantage. The win conditions for this deck are Velen into mind blast or other burst spells or a divine spirit x2 inner fire combo.
Mulligans: You generally want to mulligan for a northshire cleric which will allow you to gain card draw early on. Another good card to keep is power word shield as playing that on your northshire will allow you to keep it alive longer and gain more card draw.
Card Uses:
Power Word Shield and Kabal talonpriest can be used to allow minions to trade without dying and also work well with your divine spirit inner fire combo.
Power Word tentacles is extremely powerful in this deck as it allows you to trade into other minions and works well with your inner fire combo.
Silence
Auchenai
Velen
Mind Blast
Holy Fire
Darkshire Alchemist
Flash Heal
Mind Control
Evolved Kobold
Holy Nova
Circle of healing
Thoughtsteal
Shadow Word Pain
Shadow Word Death
Combos:
Auchenai+circle of healing is an extremely powerful AOE board clear for 4 mana leaving you with a 3/1 on the board
Divine spirit+Divine spirit+Inner Fire one of your win conditions and finishing moves. Can be combined with power word tentacles for a pretty nasty 10 mana combo. Or, with power word shield for a cheaper but very potent combo.
Mind Blast+Mind blast+Holy Fire 10 mana deal 15 damage one of your finishing moves to burst people down. With Velen it does 30 damage and with velen and evolved kobold it does 42.
Auchenai+Flash heal 5 mana deal 5 damage can be used with Velen or other burst cards for OTK or for removal.
0-10. Back from 16 to 20.
unlucky :(
This deck is the absolute shit I reached rank 5 with it when I couldn't with any other deck
Gets shrekt by aggro but sometimes you can heal up out of lethal range cuz priest
Absolutely wrecks all the reno decks
Thanks man
I got a B in Spanish in high school, but I know enough to say, "A mi me gusta." This is a real fun deck!
muchas gracias :D
(i think thats how you say it right?)
nice thanks!
I'm in the same boat with you. I'm sick and tired of the meta right now especially the agro decks.
This deck is very fun but doesn't do too well in the higher ranks approaching legend. The reason for this is because of agro decks like agro shaman and pirate warrior see a lot of play. Those decks do very well against this one because unless you draw perfectly you will probably be dead by turn 7.
I'm not sure this deck could reach legend right now because of the meta but I would be interested to see how far you can get with it.
thats a good idea i think that dirty rat+doomsayer would help a lot with the agro and it would push the game longer where you have the advantage. I'll experiment with it. Any thoughts on card substitutions?
thanks for the suggestion :)
I use this deck to climb to rank one legend- it's easy once you find the most elegant method
:D
Myślę, że chciałem napisać:
Używam tego pokładu podejść do rangi jednego legend- łatwo po znalezieniu najbardziej elegancki sposób.
Please don't take my hearthpwn account
Wow ur super cool I wish I could get to rank 1 it must feel pretty neat m8
how is it going vs aggro? am i just unlucky? lul
fun deck btw
agro is this deck's main weakness. you should try and mulligan for cheap removal as well as some sustain to get you to turn 5. Once there you can heal with darkshire alchemist.
I normally mulligan for these cards vs agro:
auchenai/circle, shadow word pain, holy nova, and maybe a cheap minion.
flash heal is good for a cheap heal early on as well
Unfortunately this deck does pretty badly vs full agro decks and its a tossup based on the starting cards each player has. One has to hope they didn't draw perfectly to even have a chance at winning :(
The good news is that if you manage to push the game to late game you can win by card advantage and the immense sustain you have since most agro decks fall off late game.
i have not velen,i gonna replace it with malygos
interesting, i considered adding malygos to this deck but didn't think it was worth it to substitute any cards for it.
tell me how it goes :)
I think malygos would work similarly but it wouldn't be the same. The important thing that velen does is that it DOUBLES the power of all spells both healing and damage, malygos only gives +5 spell damage. The thing that malygos might contribute to this deck is that it is a high health minion which is great for the divine spirit+inner fire combos.
Very interesting deck
thanks :)
