Resurection from the Shadows – Priest (Standard)

This is an updated version of the Shadow Priest archetype. Your goal is to control the board with your hero power and build your own board in the late game with Inspire effects.

Acolyte of Pain is important to draw cards and synergizes well with Tentacle of N’zoth and Wild Pyromancer Combos (w/ Forbidden Shaping, Shadow Word: Pain, and Shadowform), which lets you also increase possibilities for early board clears.

Cyclopian Horror seems to be a good replacement for Sen’jin Shieldmaster and Sludge Belcher, especially against zoo decks. Darkshire Alchemist is a great tech card to gain health when you are in Shadowform. Cabal Shadow Priest is very efficient as a on-off for midgame tempo swings.

Your key win condition cards are Kodorider and Confessor Paletress which can snowball into a board which your opponent cannot handle. However, make sure to play them at the right time and always make use of the Inspire effect on the same turn. Prophet Velen is a great card which turns your second Shadowform hero power into a 2 mana Fireball.

I think Soggoth The Slitherer is a great lategame card to protect your confessor and Kodorider. But this has to be tested when WotOG goes live.
