You definitely want to keep Northshire Cleric to help you be able to draw the combo. The other one drops and two drop are also nice.
This simple combo deck can be devastating in beginner level game play, especially if your opponent doesn’t have destroy minion cards or silence. Even if your opponent does have silence or destroy minion cards, this deck still has potential to win as it can easily gain board control in later game.
You wanna play Gurubashi Berserker first, then Power Word: Shield, and finish it off with Divine Spirit, giving you a 2/18 minion that becomes stronger as it takes damage. Voodoo Doctor and Priest’s hero power helps keep your Berserker alive.You can also use Shattered Sun Cleric‘s battlecry to add to the combo. But do watch out because your opponent might silence or destroy the Gurubashi Berserker.
Novice Engineer and Northshire Cleric give a nice card draw, giving you a good chance at pulling off the combo all the time.
Holy Smite and Elven Archer deal cheap damage to your opponent and helps well in early game board control or at least make a neutral broad.
Goldshire Footman and Ironfur Grizzly help prevent to much damage on your hero and even your Gurubashi Berserker if your opponent has a big minion.
Shadow Word: Death and Shadow Word: Pain are for keeping regulation of your opponent’s minions.
Acidic Swamp Ooze gets rid of your opponents weapon while having 3/2 for stats making it a really nice 2 drop.
Mind Vision helps give you pretty good cards from your opponent and/or tell you whats in your opponents hand.
Holy Nova deals nice area damage while healing your minions, it can add onto the combo for healing if your opponent deals some damage on your Berserker.
Mind Control can get you some super strong minions while decreasing your opponents power.
Some Cards to Watch Out for:
Execute, Shadow Word: Pain, Shadow Word: Death, Deadly Shot, Naturalize, and Assassinate can all destroy the combo.
Paladin
Paladin is the best class to go against with this deck because it doesn’t really have cheap silence or destroy minion cards.
Warrior
Warrior is a tough one. With the the card Execute it can be hard to counter. If the combo fails, immediately true to gain board control, and keep pushing, but watch out for Brawl . Warrior has horrible draw cards so if you can keep pushing for about 5-6 rounds you most likely won.
