Mulligans
Aggro Mulligans
Basically duskbreaker and any other dragon (if possible)
Previously, on the month of August:
The Deathrattle Rogtards (Hunter & Rogue) ruled over Hearthstone.
They were a formidable foe that relinquishes the rightful position of other deathrattle decks attempting to ever survive in this desolate and grim world.
Only the Ben Brode, master of all RNG and Balance could stop them.
But when the community needed him the most, he simply left.
BUT that time of unease and lack of diversity is over now. A new HOPE has APPEARED.
Priest
Branding its very own powerful & deadly arsenal of deathrattle minions, Priest seeks to rise above all and claim its well-deserved spot on this season’s ladder!
Priest
Reunited with the classic dragon set: Duskbreaker, Twilight Drake, Primordial Drake, Cobalt Scalebane and not so dragony Mechanical Whelp, this deck is ready to DESTORY.
Armed with the irresistible deathrattle cards: Devilsaur Egg and Mechanical Whelp and Carnivorous Cube. Its power is enhanced further by Priest’s own specialized deathrattle-synergy cards such as:
Dead Ringer: acting as card draw to your important deathrattles.
Mirage Caller: AMAZING at copying 1/1 Devilsaur Egg or better Mechanical Whelp , or EVEN BETTER — copying a Carnivorous Cube
Twilight's Call: Hmm hmmm, do you smell that value in the air? I sure do. Twilight's Call or as I like to call it — Call for Concede, has an AMAZING synergy with this deck. 3 mana summon two 1/1s that summon 2 7/7s is PHENONMENAL. Furthermore, it can be combed with Carnivorous Cube at just 8 mana! Talk about play dead, this card is BUSTED.
Unidentified Elixir: A pretty uncommon addition, I’ll admit. However, its amazing versatility and combo potential was too good to be left out.
Apart from all the deathrattle shenanigans, Omega Medic is a fairly new addition I found good enough to include both copies to substitute traditional forms of heal.
Substitution
Omega Medic –Replaced by Divine Hymn/Holy Nova
(Arguably stronger) Non Budget:
Omega Medic x2 –Replaced by–> Awaken the Makers (Quest) and Zola
Any other cards (apart from core set) could be replaced by any of the cards mentioned below:
Shadow Word: Death
Holy Nova
(Any form of Silence)
Spirit Lash (If meeting too much tokens)
Shadow Ascendant
Alexstrasza (Replace a dragon; To close games/Burst/Finisher)
Statistics
Winrate: 65%~ (I’ve played more than 30 games)
Favorable Matchups: Deathrattle Hunter, All types of Druids
Neutral Matchups: Zoolock (Depends heavily on your draws, you either straight-up win or downright lose)
Hardest Matchups: Odd Rogue, Quest Rogue
Rank Range: Played from Rank 12 to Rank 5
Have a fun time!
Really cool deck! The duskbreakers crush aggro just like they always have, and the deathrattle combos give huge value. I dont even have the DK, but the deck has still done quite well in many games.
I’m a newbe so sorry if this is stupid, but wouldnt the priest quest fit into this?
That’s no stupid suggestion!
Because I had initially planned for this to be a semi-budget plan, I never thought to include too many legendaries.
However, that is a very viable include.
Substituting the Quest and Zola for the 2 omega medics would be most suitable!
I actually don’t think you run the quest in any Deathrattle Priest deck just because you can. Losing one card in mulligan and a turn one play is just bad for a tempo deck. The reward of the quest also seems more of a defensive card than a card that helps you win. I could be wrong though, and this deck might prefer running a few defensive tools as opposed to going for just tempo.
