...... I just win-streaked from low Rank 9 all the way up to Rank 5, 4 stars over the course of 2 days with my homebrew Singleton Galakrond Priest deck, and I'm quitting for the night with my streak still active. My win to cross the threshold into Rank 5 was a total doozy, too.

I had to fight back against a Galakrond Rogue who had Togwaggled 3 times over the course of the game. I found a turn to just barely play my Dragonqueen Alex, which gave me Emeriss and regular Alex. I came this close to following up playing Emeriss with Alex, but decided not to, and the next turn, he ignored most of my stuff, sapped Emeriss, and put me down to 2. The next turn, I was able to Alex myself for free and play Zilliax, Penance, and Holy Ripple to clear the board completely and put myself back to 22. He still came back into it, though, after his Crown summoned two Deathwings. Then I hit a 2/5 chance to kill his second one with my Galakrond, and successfully read his generated Hunter Secret as Misdirection and refused to attack his face with my 12 and 16-attack minions until I could test with something else, which ended up winning me the game.

Here's the decklist, I guess?

Embalming Ritual and Cabal Shadow Priest have been pretty underwhelming for the most part, but I'm scared to change anything because it's winning so much. If you were to try for yourself, I think I'd plug Siamat in for CSP and something like Injured Tol'vir for Embalming Ritual, to help fight for early board control, but still isn't terrible to Grave Rune or get back from Psychopomp.

In a few days, hopefully I can slot that new Priest Dragon in here!
