High Priest Amet - how to use this legendary supporter?

High Priest Amet is a unique Legendary character available for the Priest. This supporter has a lot of health, which makes it difficult to eliminate him in one round. Moreover, High Priest Amet has a very interesting ability.

1. Special ability - Every time you play a supporter, you set his health points to the equal amount of High Priest Amet HP. This means that by increasing Amet's health to 14 points, each summoned creature will also have as many health points!
2. Reborn - It is worth mentioning here that the ability of the High Priest Amet is also activated after the Rebirth. For example, if Injured Tol'Vir dies when High Priest Amet is on the board, he will be reborn with health points equal to those of a legendary supporter.

Psychopomp - how and when to play this card?

Psychopomp is a unique card in the Priest's deck, which calls upon a random friendly supporter who died in this game and additionally gives him a Rebirth.

1. When to play - Before you play Psychopomp, make sure that at least one ally is killed in the game so as not to waste the potential of the card.
2. Summoning Effect - It is worth remembering that the creatures summoned by the Psychopomp appear with a full pool of health. If there is a High Priest Amet on the board, the health of the summoned supporter will be automatically aligned with that of the legendary priest.

Mulligan - the appropriate selection of cards

Each duel begins with a so-called Mulligan phase, that is the selection of cards. During this time, you can decide which cards to leave in your hand and which ones to discard and look for others. Card shuffling always involves some risk, but sometimes it is necessary to use it in order to have a chance to win.

1. High priority - Northshire Cleric, Power Word: Shield, Acolyte of Pain. From the very beginning of the match you take extra cards to build matching combos.
2. Medium priority - Consider leaving Injured Tol'Vir in your hands if you have a Psychopomp - this combination will allow you to effectively stop the aggressive deck for at least a few turns.

Defense

Defense is not the strongest point of this deck, so you should look for a large number of minions with Taunt. You have only 2 of them at your disposal, and you have to deal with any problems you may have by using the remaining supporters or spells - Holy Ripple, Mass Dispel.

1. Minions - your supporters have a large health pool so you will be able to perform beneficial exchanges and then restore them to full health.
2. Wild Pyromancer - combined with a few cheap spells, Wild Pyromancer will be able to clear the entire board.

Offensive

The Priest's deck gameplay focuses on creating a minion with a large health pot, which can be further increased by using the combination of Divine Spirit + Inner Fire. With this combination you can create a minion in one round who will finish off the opponent with one attack.

Pay attention to the removals - Try to keep the combo on your hands at that moment. Your goal is to finish the enemy in one turn. Due to the large number of removals in the game, your minion may not wait until the next round, and you will lose your chance to win the duel.
