Mulligans
This deck is my interpretation of the wild deck big priest in standard format. It’s goal is to cheat out big minions on to the board and then redirect them again and again keeping up board presence and pressure. Aiming for t6 shadow essence and then keep resing for board presence. Big swing turns in spellstone.
Silence to counter magnetic and cheap spell to charge spellstone
Shadow visions to charge up spellstone. In early game to fish for removal or shadow essence for t6 and in late game find extra spellstones for extra value
Shadow word pain to stop early game aggression + v good 2 for 1 against magnetic
Spirit lash for heals, to combo with holy nova, and to counter odd paladin. Bear in mind you have to be greedy with aoe removal as priest doesn’t have any to spare
Shadow word death to counter agro midrange and even warlock. Hits egg death rattles
Mass dispel to counter magnetic and other buff
Holy Nova removal
Psychic scream removal, extremely good against magnetic and shuts down mech paladin
Free from amber to allow for good odds when playing shadow essence. 3/5 chance to hit a taunt minion and only deathwing is a bad pull. Also give opportunity to double up on minions like the lich king ysera deathwing or obsidian. Fills up res pool
Damn Dat deck hits hard like a sativa dominant strain
I feel like I have a unique perspective to ratify that pov
