Getting Better
You’ve unlocked the Priest hero and have gained all the basic class cards through leveling up to 10. Now you’re ready to take on those Priest quests that have been building up.
Priest has some very useful basic cards, we suggest that you take the basic deck that the game gives you and and make a few substitutions with the cards gained from leveling and a few created with dust.
2x [River Crocolisk] —–> 2x [Thoughtsteal]
1x [Razorfen Hunter] —-> 1x [Holy Nova]
1x [Bloodfen Raptor] —-> [Auchenai Soulpriest]
1x [Darkscale Healer] —-> 1x [Holy Nova]
1x [Stormwind Champion] —-> 1x [Cabal Shadow Priest]
1x [Stormwind Champion] —-> 1x [Mind Control]
The Mulligan
If you are going first I would try to hold onto any 2 mana minion, [Power Word: Shield] and [Holy Smite]. These cards will allow you to clear their 1 drop and allow you a minion on turn 2.
If you are going 2nd I would keep all of the above, but also keep [Thoughtsteal]. This card can be played on turn 2 with the The Coin.
Playing this deck
You are probably thinking, “Why not play [Northshire Cleric] on turn 1?” With this card, I find that if I do not use it to get a card on the turn I play it, it just acts as a target for a low cost removal spell or is just killed off by a minion that will stay alive after killing it. So I usually play it when I know I can get the most from it. Unless… I can play it and [Power Word: Shield] on it. Then I am fine with not healing to gain the card.
I always tried to keep my opponents board clear of minions and used my hero power to keep my minions alive. I rarely healed myself and use my hero power to keep my minions alive to help clear the opponents board.
Be careful when healing your [Gurubashi Berserker]. If you heal him back to full, he will lose his bonuses for being enraged.
And keep in mind that trying to heal a minion or yourself while [Auchenai Soulpriest] is in play will “Deal” 2 damage, not heal it. I’ve fell victim to this trick one too many times. Pay attention. But, with the case of the [Gurubashi Berserker], dealing damage to it to enrage is not a bad idea at all.
