It looked weak at first, and then I watched and realized, huh, that's actually maybe a thing. But it does require the priest to survive til the late game enough to assemble Test Subject, double Radiant Elemental, Divine Spirit, Topsy-Turvy, and preferably a boar. OTOH, maybe that's not all that tall an order, and the only question is going to be getting the combo off without running out of time. Now, in any other context, Test Subject is fairly awful. It's "get another card from Power Word Shield" and that's really about it. Topsy Turvy https://www.hearthstonetopdecks.com/cards/topsy-turvy/ Rating: High Comment: 0 mana spells are always dangerous. 0 mana spells that enable the cliche priest combo that's been available since forever, and allow attacking via health without needing Inner Fire are going to be absurdly good. And, of course, there are other applications, but you probably won't see them unless you need Doomsayer tech...in priest...somehow. Zerek, Master Cloner https://www.hearthstonetopdecks.com/cards/zerek-master-cloner/ Rating: Low Comment: 6 mana for 5/5 that can come back if you can hit it with spells. Problem is, priest doesn't have a ton of those worth playing, and honestly, is getting back a 5/5 vanilla minion really all that powerful? If I was that worried about this guy, I'd silence him. Zerek's Cloning Gallery https://www.hearthstonetopdecks.com/cards/zereks-cloning-gallery/ Rating: Medium Comment: 9 mana is a steep price, but for a very specific deckbuilding challenge, I think this card can be potentially phenomenal. Having powerful minions to resurrect with spellstone is good. Having a ton of deathrattles appear out of nowhere is good. I see weird Velen shenanigans as possible, too, since if you haven't drawn him yet, you have seven chances for him to appear on board. So yeah, people, will experiment with this, and I have a feeling something will stick. The question is only how broken and how consistent it will be. --- Video Game Music Contest 12 winner: Ys 8 - Sunshine Coastline <cite>azuarc posted [p:906331908] in Hearthston...
