The problem with Ressuredt Priest is that the Bishop has anti-synergy, and giving Priest another way to res a minion doesn't really help their abysmal early game.

I also disagree that Priests C'Thun minion is better than Warriors. Armor can overheal, so Warriors C'Thun minion plus Bran is always a 20 heal, while Priests is very likely not. Not to mention that armor has syngery with cards like Shield Slam, and warrior has far better ways to survive till tur 10 and use this combo. If Priests card could heal any friendly charatcer, it might be on par.

And I also don't think just waiting is a good excuse. Priest has been bad since Standard Rotation, and the next expansion gives us Purify. Blizz had loads of time to buff the card or even give us another, it's not like Priesr was only discovered to be bad yesterday.

I also don't like the excuse that the 7/7 was made before the BGH nerf. Why not just change it then? It's not like once it's made it's set in stone. They should have looked at the card - realised what they balanced it around was nerfed, and acted accordingly.
