Hey guys, I am here with my first deck I will be using in Starladder tournament this week! It's a BO5 conquest with a ban, I during these days I would like to present you my whole lineup. This is an updated version of hunter that Xixo played in Seatstory, so huge shoutout to him, I just loved it immediately!
In the mulligan you really want to see great curve, 1drops are especially important. However, there is an exception to this, Spiteful Summoner is a card I like to keep even though it's super expensive. Yes, it is that good. Corridor Creeper is also a solid keep against minion heavy decks such as Paladin or Rogue. Against these you want at least one weapon as well.
The fact that you cannot play any spells besides Call of the Wild has some pros and cons, but it mostly means you have a really good minion curve just because of abundance of minions in your deck, making it more consistent.
With this deck you are playing a regular Hunter deck, going fast and hard on the board. However, you got some big aces up your sleeve in case your opponent starts to stabilize. Spiteful Summoner will awlays hit Call of the Wild, creating something like 13/13 stats for 6 mana, which is just crispy. Out of those you often get Ysera which generates even more value, or Dragonhatcher which will bring you Cobalt Scalebane, which is the reason I run 2.
To top things off, once you get to the real lategame (which means turn 8 with Hunter) you just slam Grand Archivist to create 17/17 stats, just like that. Just compared ot to the unnerfed Call of the Wild, except you get extra 4/7 body, which they have to deal with, or face yet another Call next turn.

Fun deck to play. I removed one Cobalt Scalebane and added in Deathstalker Rexxar just for more late game control if it happens to get to late game. Been a few games it did get there and the combo minions saved my ass.
Hello guys I'm playing this deck on ladder and have had some winstreaks allready! :)
One thing though: When I matchup agains warlock it's autolose. Voidlords left and right are just too overwhelming and as soon as they play their Gul'dan it's bottom right buddy. Is it worth to put a silence into the deck to be able to burst some damage through the first Voidlord or should you just accept the fact that you are going to lose as soon as you see a warlock pop up?
how do you get Ysera?
Can this beat Cubelock, like ever? Or is this what you use when you ban Warlock?
I like how well this curves out. :)

Keep in mind this is for tourney - if you are planning ot use this on ladder make appropriate changes.
First game: My hand started with Patches and Call of the Wild, Mulligan those out just to grab my other Call of the Wild and then drew Call of the Wild on turn one...shit.
Deck seems fun but that first game, yeesh.
Grand Archivist feels underwhelming. It consumes the spell destroying future spiteful potential. It is end of turn so you can not use Huffer or Leokk. With the amount of board clears in current meta such board is trivial to deal with. I consider adding a Stitched Tracker instead.
8 mana for 16/17 worth of stats on board is huge, sure your opponent may have a Twisting Nether or Psychic Scream but if they don't it's gonna be rough to clear all of that, especially with a taunt on board.
If you don't draw your Call of the Wild, you can cast it on 8 mana and add an additional 4/8 minion to your board.
It doubles the chance to draw your Call of the Wild, with the possibility of casting it one turn earlier.
With this deck you are trying to kill your opponent with tempo, and this card increases your tempo and the chance to find your finisher.
I'm guessing you'd like to discover another Spiteful Summoner with Stitched Tracker, but I think in this deck it diminishes your tempo on the very important turn 3 when you'd rather play Bearshark to follow it up with Houndmaster and possibly Cobalt Scalebane, or the Eaglehorn Bow to control the board. Then if you have the Spiteful Summoner on 6 it's insane, do something on 7 and play your Grand Archivist on 8 for a guaranteed Call of the Wild and a Happy Feast of Winterveil for your opponent.
Run 2 Golakka / 1 dire wolf instead of 1 Golakka / 2 dire wolf. Golakka is much better in meta right now.

Any replacement for Patches? I don't have it and don't want to craft for 3 months before it comes to wild
Patches is the best legendary in the game. You'll get your dust's worth out of him if you craft him right now, trust me.
Use the basic 1/1 boar with charge.
Remove the whole pirate package if you don't have him. replace it with second dire mole and golakka and perhaps even kill command
unleash is good against aggro/token decks aswell
Kill Command will ruin the whole plan with Spiteful Summoner not always hitting Call of the Wild. I suggest 2 Golakka Crawler and 1 Dire Mole if you need to replace the pirate package.
Kil command has awful synergie
