Why Twilight Drake when you don't have potential to draw many cards?

Why Twilight Drake when you don't have potential to draw many cards?

 

You do not need a deck that draws a lot of cards to make good use of Twilight Drake. Usually, you play these on turns 4/5, while you have been holding on to your cards for the first 3 turns, and then you give them taunt with Sunfury Protectors or Defenders of Argus.

 

As a Priest, you play a pretty slow control game, so you end up holding a lot of cards in your hand all game long. This is especially true since a lot of your cards are answers to your opponent, so you can't just play them whenever.

I use almost the same deck, but I only have Rag and Tink, not the other legendaries. But I cant progress further r14, no matter what. I usually lose to handlocks or rush rogue/hunters. whats the tip? I dont play  the cards mindlessly. and I dont have the feeling that I have a lot of bigdick units. If they shoot/hex/poly/whatever the Rag, the main killer is gone, the others are the 4/x cards...

This deck sucks indeed.

While I don't think the iteration above is that great for a couple reasons, I have been running with a version that I adapted, replacing a few cards for some card draw to synchronize better with the deck. 

 

When you combo the card draw from the priests with the healing used on the taunted blademasters, watchers, and drakes, you can build your deck fast. The addition of Thoughsteal and Mindgames add some RNG that generally helps quite a bit, especially to throw your opponent off. Also, I replaced BGH with SW:D because I feel the >5 threshold is a bit more useful. This version has a little more flexibility in the early game, while depending upon rag, mc, and ysera to close out.

This deck isn't overly helpful - I built this up, and every opponent rolled over me so fast, as over most cards cost 4 and above... I am constantly left with 4,5,6 cards for the first 4-5 rounds (obviously).

 

I would suggest editing in some more low level cards if you want to use this.
