Miracle Gurubashi Priest OTK

Yes, you aren't mistaken, I actually typed Priest OTK. No, I don't want to talk about the clumsy Light Well Inner Fire Divine Spirit OTK here.

It all started from weeks ago, where Miracle Rogue was dominant. I know the scary thing that makes that deck work isn't the deadly Shadowstep+Leeroy, but Gadgetzan and its synergy with many 0 or 1 mana spells in rogue. I thought if I could abuse Gadgetzan in other decks, something fun could happen as well!

Then it comes to Priest. Priest has a lot of cheap spells, but generally, they are used solely for Wild Pyromancer to clear board. How about combining them with Gadgetzan? The initial brute Gadgetzan Priest is based on that idea and runs Mountain Giant et Molten Giant to abuse the drawing power, while Molten can defend myself from aggressive decks. If I throw away my Giants, I feel like my deck is really weak as it has no real way to deal damage.


Then a few days ago, I accidentally watched this: 


Brilliant! I don't know whether Sharthstone (the owner of this awesome video) ran Gadgetzan or not, but as for myself, I think Gurubashi Berserker is the perfect missing piece for this particular Priest deck.

Unfortunately, I have only enjoyed some casual games with this deck in NA server. Let's see if there is any room to improve this ^^


Alternate version, for those who love giants like me:


So now the deck has everything it needs to be able to compete:
- mass field sweeper: Pyro + spells, or Circle of Healing + Auchenai Soulpriest
- good counter/comeback from aggro rushes: Molten giant + sunfury, or Alexstraza
- game ender/finisher: Gurubashi Berserker
- mid game advantage: Gadgetzan + any spell, or Thoughtsteal alone
- exclusive goodies: 0 mana Silence!
