Topsy Turvy Priest (also known as Test Subject OTK Priest and Wall Priest as it's sequel variant) is a new Priest archetype that has been emerged with the release of The Boomsday Project, specially thanks to the  Topsy Turvy. It's main purpose as a combo deck is to buff  Test Subject with cheap spells in conjunction with Radiant Elemental's, while killing Test Subject's to retrieve your spells back; this combo repeats until reaching lethal. However, after the February balance patch the deck got some changes in order to adapt the new meta. The new version of the deck is called Wall Priest and it features big sticky minions instead of  Test Subject while retaining the  Topsy Turvy and  Inner Fire package. This version also contains resurrection package similar to Resurrect Priest to out-value opponents.
