Questline Priest Deck (March 2023) – Stormwind
While Priest is mostly getting attention for finally getting a chance to lean on the darkside, that doesn’t mean the class can’t stay with the light! If you want to play a deck that has a true win condition in every sense of the word, then you will want to try out the Seek Guidance quest that Priest received in the Hearthstone United in Stormwind expansion.
The questline seems innocent enough, you just need to play specific mana cost cards for each part of the quest. The first one requires you to play a 2, 3, and 4-cost card. The second is 5 and 6, and the final part is play a 7 and 8-cost card. Once you’ve completed the third part, you will get the 5-mana Xyrella, the Sanctified minion. She is a 7/7 Taunt that has the battlecry text, “Shuffle the Purified Shard into your deck.” Well, what does that card do? It’s a 10-cost spell that reads, “Destroy the enemy hero.” Obviously, if you can pull that combination off, you will win the game!
While that seems like it shouldn’t be too difficult to pull off, there are going to be some issues. First, you need to have all of the right cost cards, so you will need to play a fair amount of draw and tutor abilities. Cards like Cleric of An’she which can Discover things from your deck are good. You will also need to make sure you play at least one or two cards for each cost that is required. This is easier said than done, because there’s not a whole lot of 8-mana cards you’d want to play in a deck like this!
At the end of the day, figuring out a way to consistently get the cards you need is going to be the biggest obstacle to making this combination happen. It can’t be too easy, because the card is extremely powerful and any slow deck against this will have a real tough time beating it with that kind of ability sitting in the deck!
Keep in mind that you should be very careful about crafting any new cards or decks when a new Hearthstone expansion is released. The power level of decks is hard to predict, and a list might be powerful one day and weak the next. The meta is always evolving in the early stages of an expansion release, so consider waiting before making any decks if you’re on a budget!

Hearthstone Questline Priest Deck
After both patches that brought nerfs to classes like Warlock and Demon Hunter, there at least seems to be a small place for Questline Priest in the meta. This deck is still being refined, but at least it has shown some promise.
