Deck Import

Priest was original one of the worst decks sitting on tier 5 along side other trash decks such as pirate warrior. But with this new expansion the ‘mean streets of gadgetzan’, Priest and in particular, dragon-priest is predicted to sky rocket into tier one making priest a force to be reckoned with. Therefore the deck i have created is a priest deck that has no duplicates to certainly make sure that the kazakus (priest)  create a spell can be activated. Due to this strategy of no duplicates, survival and board removal will be tough to accomplish. Therefore with the use of dragon buffs in this deck will allow you to control board by out valuing your opponents cards. 

Strategy: 

Due to few removal but strong minions and good minion value, this deck is more control based and should be used to destroy your opponents in the late game with cards such as YseraDeathwing, DragonlordNefarian and alexstraza. these late game dragons will allow for you to beat your enemy in the late game as it doesn’t leave them with many options. So the main purpose of this deck is to stall until late game where you can then overwhelm your opponents. Not only are these cards used to win but also cards like Reno Jackson  can be used to frustrate your opponent and make them concede or again allow you to stall until late game. And the star attraction for this deck, kazakus (priest) will allow for you to do so many things. This card in my opinion along side Mistress of Mixtures are the best cards so far in this new expansion. kazakus (priest) is one of the best cards in the new expansion due to how many options this card can give you. Therefore this card can be either be used to win the game, survive, control, stall and/or burst down you’re opponent. 

Conclusion: 

Out of all the new archetypes and decks this new expansion creates, this deck in my opinion is the most exciting and surprising. With priest coming back hard and strong into the current meta was no surprise to many people as it is what blizzard does. Has one class that is bad, realises that it is bad and fixes it. But the fact that after they are soon about to put BRM, TGT and LOE into wild, dragons wouldn’t come back into the meta just as what happened with all mech decks when GVG rotated into wild. So in conclusion This deck has alot of different possibilities and potential to be one of the best decks in the current meta, with all of this being said this is only a theory craft and could potentially be complete trash once tested after the expansion is released.

    This looks really interesting, but i would do 3 changes:
    – Midnight Drake
    -Onyx Bishop
    -Potion of Madness
    and
    + Brann Bronzebeard
    + Blackwing Corruptor
    + Netherspite Historian

    The reasons are:
    Midnight Drake is not a good dragon, cause toughness 4 is too fragil. Corruptor has a good body, even with a toughness of 4 and kills a minion. With Brann a big one.
    Potion of Madness is not necessary, but a early minion is. And this minion gives you a dragon and a body. And with Brann 2.
    Onyx Bishop is also not so good with so many battlecry minions, but Brann fits very well.

    When the next expansion comes out i will try this out so.

      And for Holy Smite i would advise Power Word:Shield, cause there is not much carddraw and Holy Smite should be not necessary in this build.

      imho

    I was brainstorming this certain reno dragon priest ever since they revealed kazakus and the other new priest cards for a while now. My version though is more based on the older version of this reno dragon deck back from the old meta which had shadowform and elise and voljin. This version tho looks pretty neat but might be slow due to the high costing dragons but to make long story short, i like the concept of this deck overall and plan to make my version of this deck once gadetzan is out. good job man
