Battle Priest [MSOG]

Priest has the best early game imho, next to maybe shaman. This deck is built to exploit that.

The goal is to take the board and never lose it from the get go…

turns 1-3: use your 1,2, and 3 drops (depending on coin) to fill the board. Twilight Whelp Faerie Dragon Mana Geode Wyrmrest Agent Kabal Talonpriest are all key keeps and plays. 

turns 4-5: use your boosts, Power Word: Shield Divine Spirit Defender of Argus to keep board vs aggro, or move in to bigger dragons vs controlTwilight Guardian Azure Drake Drakonid Operative

Tech choices:

Confuse Crazed Alchemist these are both in here due to the massive amount of health you can keep on the board and go lethal with. Crazed is also good vs doomsayer

Genzo, the Shark  is an interesting choice, but is great when played turn 4 after a Twilight Whelp Wyrmrest Agent Kabal Talonpriest  start. your opponent is forced to deal with the shark while leaving your strong board. 

Circle of Healing is in as a card draw machine (when you drop a Northshire Cleric ). I like this play in an aggro/midrange matchup. Even if you heal some of your opponents cards, your draw is too much value for them. It also helps activate mana geode if need be and helps keep your taunts up and going. 

Dirty Rat speaking of taunts… this guy is in here to counter any pirate aggro and can also be useful at potentially pulling out reno in control matchups. He’s also a good confuse/crazed alchemist target. 

Spawn of Shadows my one flex spot at the moment, but he can deal that last 4 dmg at times, and if you’ve switched hero power with sir finley, then he can be hitting for 6…. still debating this slot though. might go for another defender of argus as something more consistent. 

Thanks for reading, suggestions and comments would be great.
