Resurrect Priest

Rise from your grave!

Resurrect Priest (Also known as "Big Priest") is a Priest deck type. It utilizes a spell-heavy deck with a small number of powerful minions with ongoing effects, with the intent of "cheating" out these minions earlier with cards like Shadow Essence, and resurrecting them with cards like Eternal Servitude and Diamond Spellstone after being removed. The deck's goal is to outvalue the opponent with huge minions late game or dominate and end the game early with Palm Reading and Shadow Essence on turn 5. In Wild, this deck gains access to Archmage Vargoth, giving them access to resurrectable minions much earlier, as well as access to larger threats like Blood of G'huun and Scrapyard Colossus.
