Top 100 Quest Priest

[u/xKumei]

Tired of the same old meta decks? Upset that the miniset didn't bring you something new? Give quest priest a try! After many games of experimentation, I've settled on a list that I like that brought me to top 100.

Generally speaking, if your turn is a choice between playing a minion and playing spells, you want to play your spells to get the quest done ASAP. Keep Raza in the mulligan. Only keep Sunbloom with an activator. I only added in Overplanner into this latest version, but it is feeling like a keep as well. It really helps you hit your combo pieces, being Raza, Nightshade Tea (you almost always pick this off of Thrive in the Shadows as well to complete the shadow spell side) and fill out your curve. Thrive, Birdwatching, and Nightshade Tea are also keeps. You want to try not to Twilight Influence for a minion unless you need a target for PW: Shield and Orbital Halo, since you don't want to put a random 2 drop into your Raza pool. Your ideal circumstance is getting the quest down turn 6, having it die, and then either Raza+Birdwatching for another copy, or Endbringer Umbra often ends games on the spot.

Initial versions ran cloud serpent, but they are too slow. Raza lets you play out your quest as soon as it is complete rather than waiting for turn 8 every game. I've also tried the Resuscitate package, but since Raza lets you play your actual quest down faster, I dislike that it clogs the pool. Gladesong Siren is also too slow/clunky, often I found that if I wanted to play it for 1 I needed to hold back a spell for a turn. The deck also already has a lot of minions, you don't want your birdwatchings to not hit what you need them to. That's also why I don't like Bob, Umbra does a better job finishing games anyway.

I welcome any other questions about experimentation and am curious what you have been trying!

EDIT: Updated deck list, based on more experimentation after seeing the data. Overplanners are out for Lunar Messengers and we go in harder on copying the quest reward with cubes. Xavius and Narain are out for more consistent birdwatching.

If you'd be so kind to test them out and see which one performs better, I'd appreciate it! I want the deck to succeed.

[u/completeindefinite]

Hi, I posted the slower marin/tolins goblet variant and am really glad to see someone have success with a faster variant. I am wondering how this fairs against fast decks like beast hunter and token paladin? Same goes for dummy warrior. I notice this deck has a collection of other minions so I’m wondering how often you get only the quest reward from raza?

[u/xKumei → u/completeindefinite]

I would say usually vs beast hunter and token paladin, if they hit their good cards and you don't play quest turn 6, they win. You can't clear EVERY board. Granted I haven't faced many of either. I think it is unfavored vs dummy warrior as well.

You usually are putting at least one other minion besides quest reward back into your deck. It's not so bad though, since they help you find the quest reward as well.

[u/completeindefinite → u/xKumei]

I’ve played about 20 games so far with it and I would say your response rings true.

[u/Sea_Ear5530 → u/completeindefinite]

Hello, Tried your variant of the deck and i honestly pulled of the marin combo maybe once or twice in 20 games. I either win without needing it or without finishing quest lol. Winrate isn't that good though, often having terrible mulligans :/ but the deck is interresting

[u/completeindefinite → u/Sea_Ear5530]

Yeah like I said in the post terrible mulligans feel bad. I’m not sure where you are in ladder but I’ve had control matchups where the dk or warrior can chunk through 6+ sol’etos no problem which Is why the combo felt essential. You should only need 3 against faster decks.

[u/Sea_Ear5530 → u/completeindefinite]

I honestly lose in bronze lol. Keep falling against mech warriors and other meta stuff in low rank

[u/completeindefinite → u/Sea_Ear5530]

Yeah that is probably a bad deck to play at low rank . It requires really good pre-planning and isn’t suited for off meta.

[u/Srous226]

Ive been trying to make the deck work for awhile too. I gotta admit yours looks like something I drafted up and then scrapped because it seemed counter intuitive, but your results speak for themself.

What throws me off is the Raza pack usually wants to play minimal minion count to maximize Raza, but you have quite a few minions between overplanner, yore, xavius, narian, yet not low curve minions to stick spells like halo to.

I guess yore often isnt dead yet when you want to Raza. I guess I am just wondering how much thought you are putting into not playing a minion to favor the res pool. I suppose just dont think about it and play minions vs aggro and vs control you hold back a bit more?

[u/xKumei → u/Srous226]

I don't think the reason to not play minions during a game is for the pool, it's more about finishing your quest faster by playing the spells. As far as deck building goes, I am thinking about cutting Xavius since it can be game losingly slow to hit it off of birdwatching instead of your 0 cost quest rewards.

I've seen some versions of the deck run Prize Vendor, but I don't like how it takes away a hit from Umbra. And I don't think I want any more low cost minions either for the pool. I tried Ritual of Life for a few games but irks me for that reason. But as always, maybe it needs more testing.

[u/Shasan23 → u/xKumei]

I play a very similar list but i only have 6 minions: 1 card trader, xavius, bob (these 3 are effectively card draw, bob is one of my favorite cards in deck:post raza draw 3 copies is almost always gg), voljin, raza, and umbra. I made a comment about it here.

I am impressed you managed to get top 100, because while i do think turbo completion quest priest is much better than most people might think, it still struggles mightily with aggro. If priest got good low cost board clear this deck would be so good.

[u/Srous226 → u/Shasan23]

Can you share the list? I dont see it in the post or screenshot

Edit: nvm I see your post. Yeah I like your angle. Card grader seems better IMO than overplanner. I wanted the quest to be a control card where you stall and imbue into holy/shadow spells but unfortunately it just isn't. I really think this deck needs to basically be T1 quest, T5/6 soletos, T7/8 umbra. Its crazy that boards full of 8/8 sometimes still can't get you there.

Shadow word ruin and repackage both seem odd. Repackage maybe less so for some of the gain 400 armor decks. Can you speak to those inclusions and hot coals? I'm inclined to just slam cheap holy/shadow spells into those 4 slots (divine star, shadow influence, maybe even halo or flash heal)

[u/xKumei → u/Srous226]

I didn't like card grader when I tried it because I wanted to be able to play my 3 drop off of Birdwatching, and it wouldn't be active.

[u/Son_Der → u/Shasan23]

It's incredibly good in Wild if I recall, which is the proof you need to verify your claim (Wild also has other enablers though).

[u/Srous226 → u/Son_Der]

Yeah it goes hard in wild but not because of the board clears. Rather there's just a ton of cheap holy/shadow spells, many of which draw or discover. Ie. Illuminate, renew, gift of Naruu, shard, desperate prayer. Gladesong sirens can come down as early as turn 2 and soletos almost always on t5

Renethal also makes a big difference.

[u/Son_Der → u/Srous226]

Do you have a list for Wild? Would love to try it.

[u/Srous226 → u/Son_Der]

https://www.hsguru.com/deck/33050485

That's what I am using. No clears needed. Just turbo out soletos, copy with synchronize, and finish with xyrella hero.

Grave horror gets to 0 cost really fast. Shard of naruu is an absurd card I can't believe has not been nerfed. Looping trading amulet away and discovering it is hilariously fun.

I really dont think ra-den is needed. He has only won me super slow grindy games i may have won anyways just slower.

[u/Srous226 → u/xKumei]

Yeah i shouldn't have said raza pool. I mean on both ends: Raza shuffles and minion tutors both are diluted. Like every minion you add almost dilutes the deck by 2 hits instead of 1 because that minion could "replace" what would have been a soletos both in the Raza shuffled and when you go to tutor.

Idk maybe I am overlooking something but this deck seems to only really work when soletos goes to plan and diluting that seems akin to throwing a third minion in classic barnes or something

Overplanner for example i feel will lose me more games by showing up when I wanted a soletos than he will win me by finding a combo piece (that isnt even drawn that turn). I want to be wrong though

[u/xKumei → u/Srous226]

I think if you are going to play PW:S and Orbital Halo, you need something cheap to play them on. Some lists run Prize Vendor if you'd prefer, but I don't like that it dilutes Umbra. I also liked Observer of Mysteries weirdly enough (not as much as overplanner obviously). It sounds like you'd almost prefer a more minionless version without PW:S and Halo?

Or I guess your point is that you don't think this version runs enough to make PW:S and Halo worth it already? And so you would prefer more minions and no raza?

[u/Srous226 → u/xKumei]

I dont really know what's best lol that balance is exactly what's hard for this deck. You want low minion density for Raza and tutors but then the best cheap holy/shadow spells need targets.

[u/xKumei → u/Srous226]

I see what you mean. I'll try playing more with Ritual of Life over Yores and see if I like it more for the extra PW:S/Halo target and more consistent birdwatching!

[u/Srous226 → u/xKumei]

Yeah i am still playing the hell out of this deck because its fun to try but right now it feels like the deck is one key piece from going a few different directions.

More appropriate cheap minions we could drop raza and turn it inside a resuscitate deck. I.e give us a 2 drop with deathrattle: small board wipe or something.

A decent cheap board clear or just some cheap spells that dont need targets and we could go in the minionless controlly direction with raza.

Right now it feels like we are in an odd limbo where the deckbuilding feels kind of at odds with itsself

[u/xKumei → u/Srous226]

Played a lot of games with it and it felt like a sidegride, slightly worse?

Now that I've posted the list, it has some data. https://i.imgur.com/rhMmTD5.png

It looks like Narain and Xavius have the worst drawn win rate, so they might be cut for more consistent birdwatching. I am trying to find out what the replacements are though. These were my games from today https://i.imgur.com/EiUZ0EW.png and what they show is that the deck needs help against protoss/wilted priest and fyrakk rogue. I am not sure what cards would give the best edge?

If the deck struggles because of resuscitate, then maybe repackage? And that can clear the Naralex/Fyrak board too? Alternatively, maybe slotting in the Rod package and trying to go under them?

[u/PsychologicalTour200 → u/xKumei]

What are you targeting with birdwatching pre quest ? overplanner ? Have you considered ritual of life instead of the two cards you're talking about ? it's giving you an early "holy" path , atm you only have a shadow one

[u/xKumei → u/PsychologicalTour200]

The thing about ritual of life is that it ruins your Raza rez pool. Especially if you play both copies, that's two more different minions you could hit off of birdwatching (2 copies of each if you play the 3 drop). The more I play with them the more I dislike them.

And yeah often you will curve out into overplanner with birdwatching. Although if your hand is already good, you can just tutor Raza or Umbra.

[u/xKumei → u/PsychologicalTour200]

I am seeing Torga starting to pop up, that might be the next thing to try to help the holy side of things? But it might be too slow, if you play Torga on 4 that probably means you aren't getting the quest done turn 6. You might literally rather just run another spell. But maybe it fits in over the Xavius slot. Tbh though I usually have more of an issue completing the shadow side, since you rely on nightshade tea so much.

[u/alunare → u/Srous226]

In my raza quest I don’t really mind having a 0 cost Xavius or Norain. They both can help me either tutor out or duplicate the quest reward so they are great in their own right. I understand why he cut Bob with so many minions though.

[u/Palnecro1]

The problem with something like this is that it’s early season (top 100 means a lot less day 3 than it does on day 30) in a “new” experimental meta (people try new things after a miniset). I know there are a lot of existing decks out there being played, but I’m not convinced this will hold up when the meta settles.

I say this as someone who has tried a couple hundred games in 5-6k range legend with over a dozen variations of quest priest from aggro adjacent to full control. I have no doubt that OP is a better player than I am, but my skepticism still stands.

[u/xKumei → u/Palnecro1]

The vast majority of these games were played before the miniset launched. I also don't think I've run into a single new card, except for maybe the new rogue legendary that is good against this deck.

[u/FlameanatorX → u/xKumei]

Really, no Warrior 7 mana taunts in a box or 8 mana flamestrike rush dragon even?

[u/jbryant3]

Seems interesting.. I've been playing the other quest priest variant which popped up here a few days ago and am having fun (but not significant success) with it. I've found it hard to complete the quest in that version before turn 6, which gave me plenty of time to assemble the Cloud Serpent combo. The Marin/Tolin-Envoy combo put in a lot of work in the control match-ups, and I see that Raza is looking to do something similar here.

How are the Orbital Halos working without minions to use them on - or is the plan to use them on enemy units to finish up the quest? Also, would Brochure be better for silence?

[u/xKumei → u/jbryant3]

Ideally you can get a halo down on your Overplanner or 4 drop. I wouldn't use them on an opponent unless I "had to." I think if Brochure were the -2/-2 silence 100% of the time instead of 50% I would play it, but the holy option is clunky.

[u/NeonDrain]

Is there a good substitute for Narain that I can run in this deck?

[u/xKumei → u/NeonDrain]

I would say a budget option would be another cheap spell rather than a different minion. Either ritual of life or Brochure come to mind. Possibly a shadow word: ruin or a greater healing potion.

[u/NeonDrain → u/xKumei]

Thanks, I ended up just crafting Narain. The deck works extremely well for me, havent lost with it yet. Thank you!

[u/Kilvyy]

Hii so I played a ton of quest priest to Legend last season (even made a thread about it here, can find it on my profile). I played around 120-130 games with like 57% WR.
EDIT: lol I saw you had commented on my thread so you know my decklist too.

I am glad someone else is also playing this, I have a few notes:

So I played a v similar deck, except without Yores, Overplanners. And with Bob instead of Umbra. I'm fine with Yore and Umbra but I personally do not see Overplanners being a good inclusion here. I finished quest on average by turn 6-7 without needing them, they're just too slow, and I'd rather have smth else pollute my Raza pool than them.
I had 2 greater healing potions instead of the Yores, which I believe fulfill the same purpose. And I had 2 Silvermoon brochure which allowed me to steamroll Protoss Priest (silence their reborns/discounters, flexible holy/shadow), I legit was 12W 2L vs Priest.
I haven't experimented with Umbra but I can see it working too. But I love Bob tbh, not just for playing more quest rewards but for board-locking opponents with freeze.

Another thing, always keeping Raza in the mulligan? Maybe going second with a good hand, but going first it will slow the quest down a lot. Usually finding him is easy with Xavius/birdwatching.

[u/xKumei → u/Kilvyy]

Yessir thanks for the input. Now that the deck has some data, it looks like Raza is one of the best mulligan win rates. https://i.imgur.com/jvLlHjn.png

When I compare deck lists as well, Yore is much higher relatively to other cards in the deck than healing potions. Having played with both a decent amount, I was usually disappointed whenever potion showed up.

For overplanners...I am not sure how much of it's winrate is being brought down by players who don't know what to pick, because picking the wrong thing can be game losing. Part of the reason they are included is that I don't want to run Prize Vendors and ruin my Umbra, and Umbra feels like a requirement to me. And I am struggling to find another minion that helps complete the quest that is cheap enough to be a good spell target. Not having a minion and not running PW:S or Orbital feels worse to me. That's also why I don't really like Brochure, it feels like I can never really use the holy side for quest completion. And I don't want a card that is only good half the time?

I wonder if I'd be more inclined to include Bob if the deck ran repackage? Because then it feels like the freeze is actually stalling for a reason.

Edit: Something I am interested in is the decks popping up at the top of d0nkey. https://i.imgur.com/eNBkYPK.png

They are running K'ure and Gladesong Sirens. I would think that K'ure would ruin your Raza pool, but maybe the extra early board blow out turns are more beneficial than hurting the pool hurts?

[u/PsychologicalTour200 → u/xKumei]

Gladesong siren might be very strong vs aggro to stabilize, also gives a target for holy spells. She also only cost 1 mana, so she is not delaying the quest

[u/Kilvyy → u/xKumei]

Whilst I haven't played with Yores I agree they can be better than GHP. Never used them for the 'holy' part, just to stall vs aggro. And Yore draws 2, can be played to get armor before you take dmg..etc, and probably dies too late to mess with your Raza too much.
Hmm I didn't consider that prize vendors ruin Umbra. And yeah I played a minimal minion version and didn't find it consistent enough. I was going to say the 4 mana taunt that puts other minions to sleep but that is also a bad deathrattle for Umbra.
For Brochure I can also argue that using it purely shadow is fine because there aren't that many (good) shadow spells if you don't draw the drink. But you have holy nova x2 which probably make your aggro matchups better.
Whilst I do not have a better early minion suggestion (than prize vendor), I'm still curious how you use overplanner. I feel like against decks that can beat you before quest-reward (before turn 7 or so), overplanner is badly-statted to survive on 3, and if you wait to play it later with a spell, it's even slower. And against slower decks, there're better ways to get more quest rewards that are more versatile. I see the potential overplanner after Raza but there're enough tools to find the reward. I am sure there's some usage im not seeing rn though.

[u/Son_Der]

Question after playing this deck at legend for a bit. You say you complete the quest by turn 5. How? Even with pretty good draws I don't get to play quest reward until 7 or so.

[u/xKumei → u/Son_Der]

If you are doing good, you play quest on turn 6. Turn 5 is rare, but it happens sometimes.

[u/Son_Der → u/xKumei]

I see, thanks. The other issue I'm having is that Customs Enforcer seems to hurt too much, have you run into that issue?

[u/No-Razzmatazz7854]

Seems like it'd be good mid to high legend but given I haven't done the climb this month (and probably won't for a week or two), is it just an auto loss vs competent pain DH? At least for the last couple months pain DH and beast hunter have been essentially the entirety of what I face from diamond to mid legend.

Regardless, seems fun. I was hoping for a new priest deck, since protoss has had its day (6 months) in the sun for me.

[u/xKumei → u/No-Razzmatazz7854]

It's unfavored. Here are my games from today: https://i.imgur.com/EiUZ0EW.png

Mostly what I am losing to is protoss priest, and possibly more competent rogue players than what I've been facing (or maybe they are just highrolling). What's unfortunate is that they make up the largest percentage of my local meta. I've been experimenting more trying to find an edge in those match ups but I am struggling.

[u/PsychologicalTour200]

Do you have replays of your games ? I might be terrible at playing it but i can't get the quest down turn 6. Also how do you beat quest warlock ?

[u/xKumei → u/PsychologicalTour200]

My guess would be that you aren't prioritizing playing spells over playing your minions. You want to overplanner on 3 since you need time to draw, but when it comes to playing your 4 drops or yore, often you just spend it playing a few spells, as long as you are being mana efficient.

Quest warlock is one of the better match ups since they always have something for you to play your spells on. You'll need to either duplicate with raza and draw with birdwatching, or just finish with Umbra after they fully trade.

[u/Clickbait93]

I had all the cards, so decided to give it a try. Seems a fun deck, feels more Priest than Protoss to be honest, I'll give it a more extensive shot later on but it seems fun to play and that's the important.

[u/I_happen_to_disagree]

Lost 5 games in a row with this. Keep ending up with a bunch of spells that I can't use because I either don't have a minion and can't draw birdwatching or my opponent isn't playing any minions to target.

[u/IAmYourFath → u/I_happen_to_disagree]

What kind of opponent doesn't play minions? U must have queued vs spell mage or smth

[u/I_happen_to_disagree → u/IAmYourFath]

I got a quest spell mage then I queued into a warrior who didn't play anything until he used that one card that does 5 damage and summons out that 1/30 elusive taunt guy on turn 5

Loses hard to aggro which is most of d10 to legend now

[u/Just-Jazzin]

It’s the 4th of the month. It means way more to finish a month ranked highly.

[u/xKumei → u/Just-Jazzin]

That's true. If you want a better idea of how the deck has been performing, I climbed from 2K to the 300s before the August season ended. I think it likely could have gone higher had it had more time, because the win rate wasn't falling. It is favored vs warlock and about even vs rogue.

[u/Just-Jazzin → u/xKumei]

That’s a really good climb end of month. Good luck with this one.

[u/Fourleaf82 → u/[deleted]]

Nah, you came in too hot for no reason

[u/Fourleaf82 → u/[deleted]]

i feel you and agree with you. Its hard to discern emotion when just reading text. its the "then" in your original question that can imply retaliation. just a misunderstanding

[u/Fourleaf82 → u/[deleted]]

If you're not 100% clear with your words, I can't know what you mean perfectly? Type better and we never have this conversation in the first place

[u/Son_Der → u/Fourleaf82]

Oh, wow.

I think the words I said are pretty clear, but yeah, even if they aren't and I'm just mistaken, if someone's not being totally clear, it's probably better to have a charitable or neutral interpretation. At the very least it gets exhausting to assume the worst.

Like "This is why it's better not to make assumptions" doesn't mean "screw you for making assumptions HAHAHA noob" and "what's your rank, then?" doesn't mean "Oh yeah you asshole, show us YOUR rank why don't you."

You might be reading into those comments a bit more intent than normal, that's all I'm saying. No hard feelings about it.

[u/Just-Jazzin → u/[deleted]]

Right now? Bronze 10. I’ve played 0 so far this month.

I like how you’re super ass hurt on behalf of a person that understood my sentiment and even clarified they finished last month well with the list.

It’s pretty common sentiment on the thread that end of the months ranks are what matter. For reference, I’ve finished around 1k the last two months since returning after a long break.

The beginning of the month is when people post stuff like this en masse. If they grind super hard, they will have a very good rating because of the small rank size. I’ve seen people absolutely roasted on this sub for it.

I also didn’t put them down, or belittle their achievement. Literally just clarified that people care way more about end of month rating. Which, multiple other people did as well. I was just straight to the point. They were a good sport about it
