Finished off my first climb to Legend... with Rez Priest

I know it's a polarizing deck, but nothing else was working for me past Diamond 10 than Priest. Dragon Hunter, followed up with pre-nerf DH, got me up to Diamond pretty quickly, but I couldn't sustain any momentum after that.
Rez Priest, swapping cards in and out occasionally, work like a charm. 71% from Diamond 9, finishing with an 11 win streak (including dumpster legend, >10k).
FWIW, I love Soul Mirror. Probably superfluous in a deck with 2XPlague of Death, but there are those rare times you can copy something super useful, e.g. the time I copied a Archmage Vargoth after my own went down to Hex. Shenanigans!
GL;HF out there, everyone!

Well played, sir!
I'm a long time dad legender too, who hit full legend this week for the first time with a dirty aggro DH deck. Don't plan on making a habit of it, but ground it out pretty easily given it's such a broken deck and picked up my free classic legendary.
Bagged myself a Natalie Seline - what did you get?
May all your legendaries be golden.
Congratulations! I'm not a fan of the Rez Priest deck but it's still no easy feat to reach legend with it. Mind sharing your stats?
Congratz! I am doing the climb right now but in wild. It seems like chance. Sometime I find 8 quest mage in a row and others I cant find them. At least I found a way to counterplay them.
Right now I am playing razakus priest so most aggro decks fall short as you have ton of removal. Just OTK and control kinda stop me if I dont get my own combo. Just reached diamond 5 and now gonna rest till tomorrow. Or wait for the nerfs, not sure

climbing to legend with a 20min deck per match? Admirable
Congrats! :)
With a couple of iterations, I went 48-23 (68%) with Priest overall in Diamond league. Finished on a 7-game win streak.
In hindsight, I thought about the climb and tried Dragon and Highlander Hunter, and also Tempo DH, again at Diamond 5 with some success. I swapped back to Priest when they all stalled out. 11.9 min average game length - not for the impatient.
