Information

This is the evolution of my healing deck with the new expansions. I find it's stronger now than before, because of the consistent health increases. If you get Katra out, more often than not, it's game over. I will continue to update it as it evolves. Feedback is appreciated. I added four merchants and Xenan Lifespeaker. You can compare it with the 3.0 build if you want to see the full changes or need to know what to play if you don't have these additions.

Some tips for playing... don't sacrifice your 1 cost cards in early in the game, simply because they are needed for the synchronicity of this deck, more often than not. Always drop a Sanctuary Priest before dropping power. It's best to hold Ghostform until it can do something beneficial, such as increase your attack and health with Katra or Cult Aspirant, summon a 4/4 radiant with Premonition Wisp, or draw a card with Beckoning Lumen, if you have no lifesteal or Ancient Bauble or Power to play off Sanctuary Priest.

Rule number one, after this deck gets going you gain health fast, so don't sweat a little damage early on because most of the cards in this deck grant you health. Most of the cards in the market are meant to help with adding something you might not have drawn, such as Katra, or Katra, or Katra... okay, Katra is your pride and joy and the most useful card in this deck, don't attack with Katra if there's a chance your opponent will be able to buff the defender. You don't want to lose Katra, so attack wisely.

Reliquary Raider is more often useful for her card draw than her healing defense, so attack if you need a card.
You have 3 insta-kills in the deck and one in the market, so use them prudently. You don't want to kill a 3/3 when you're at 20 health, to have your opponent drop a 10/10 the next turn. Always drop Katra before you drop power, if you have Sanctuary Priest out.

Use Ancient Bauble to it's full extent every turn, especially if you have no fast spells in your hand, because saving power at that point is pointless.

Lastly, if you find something works better for you in this deck, then tell me, I'm happy to change things around. My belief is that you can make a top tier healing deck and with the recent expansion I think we'll see them. This is my tinkering to find the way and my attempt to provide cheaper alternatives for ranked decks for people who might not have the shiftstone.

Props to bearsman6 for the suggestion regarding Xenan Lifespeaker. It's a gamechanger for sure.

Hello
First of all I thank you for your work, I find that the cptzoom healer series decks are fantastic. I found your version 2.5 deck looking for Katra in the search engine of the site and I fell in love with it. It certainly is not a Tier1 deck but it is very fun to play and also wins very often. I saw version 3.5, the one that introduces the cards with the mechanics of the 'market' but I do not find it performant like this even if I sense the necessity I would say 'vital' to have one more way to fish for Katra. Keep me informed if you post new versions of this deck and thanks again.

I added 2 Corrupted Umbren with the Berserk ability combined with Xenan Fanatic is pretty nuts. I also added 2 Surgeon's Saw when there is extra Power the Dark Return is nice.

I like this deck but I am curious why you are not running any Legendary cards. Trying to keep it as a budget deck?
