OK some of you might not use neither of them, but if you had a 4 card slot what would it be?
4 ice storms, 4 smites or 2 + 2?

Ice Storm is probably the better choice, if I had to say one is definitively better than the other, simply because of the meta. As was stated above, Ice Storm kills Ironhide Karash and Furion Terror, not to mention other problem allies, such as Nightshade and Wulven Savage.
Against Haste/rush decks, it also kills Kristoffer Wyld (maybe even two of them, if they came on back to back opening turns). It softens up pretty much every (3-4) ally, making a killing strike possible from even smaller allies such as Puwen, Champion of Irum, or an Aldon-boosted Krist of your own.
Smite is good in a few key situations, but I'd say 4/5 of the time, Ice Storm is better.
However, you don't need to run 4x of them. 3x at the most, IMO.
2-3x Ice Storm
3x-4 Tidal Wave
2-4x Retreat!
2x Banish
That's a pretty sufficient spread of ally control for a Priest.
