Hearthstone Standard Rotation: The 5 Best Priest Cards Leaving Standard in 2019 (Constructed)

#1. Shadow Visions

Expansion: Journey to Un'Goro

Shadow Visions is a perfectly balanced card which now sees over 90% inclusions in all Priest decks in the game. You can double Seance to get a copy of a minion, double Mind Blast to get 10 damage, double Psychic Scream for the extra clear and more. Cards like this are not seen often in Hearthstone, so let's hope Blizzard prints more balanced cards like it!

Honourable Mentions

Awaken the Makers

Expansion: Journey to Un'Goro

Awaken the Makers is a Quest which is also very balanced. It is not OP and takes a while to finish the quest. Getting 40 health doesn't make you immortal but it is quite powerful when you summon Amara. The Quest was used in many different meta decks over the past 2 years, most recently in Mecha'thun Priest.

Lyra the Sunshard

Expansion: Journey to Un'Goro

Lyra was released parallel with Awaken the Makers and saw a great amount of play in many Priest decks. Even though it is a little RNG dependent, Lyra proved to be surprisingly strong especially when combined with Radiant Elemental.

Obsidian Statue

Expansion: Knights of the Frozen Throne

Initially used as a Big Priest tool, Obsidian Statue is also a surprisingly balanced card. It is balanced if you play it on Turn 9, not turn 4 or 5. It has a strong death rattle, a lot of health for a taunt and the ability for your hero to gain back a lot of life.

Archbishop Benedictus

Expansion: Knights of the Frozen Throne

Archbishop Benedictus is by no means a good card. He was always used as a meme card, to copy your opponent's deck and use it against them. Archbishop Benedictus can also make you avoid fatigue or delay fatigue in case you draw too much too fast. There is no card quite like him and he will be sorely missed!
