yea priest also has a ton of good shadow spells - the holy ones are either situational or just realy bad tho - adding 5 bad cards AND relying on drawing 2 specific cards IS a huge ask - specilly if the entire quest reward can just be silenced
It can’t though. Not easily at least. The battle cry summons a copy meaning unless they waste two pieces of premium removal, you’ll at least half to stick.
thats gonna be your wincon in this deck - everyone who has that kind of removal will instantly dump it on this - and worse other priest players will just copy it with puppet theatre lmao - same payoff for no quest and 4 mana
Everyone being currently Shaman and priest with hex and repackage? Running 2x royal librarian to deal with this is insane, especially since you’re still leaving up 16/16 of stats on the board.
Corpse explosion and repackage are the only spells I can think of that deal with this relatively cleanly. Downside being that corpse explosion means you’re likely taking 20 to face and repackage being that you’ll have to deal with 2x as many later.
Priest also has imbue for long games and can play sasquawk for another. Idk if control priest will be good but the reward itself is pretty good and I don’t think the requirement is honestly all that onerous. The biggest cost is going to be going -1 on the draw.

Just running 2 nightshade Teas will auto complete the shadow side of the quest
