Built around the old face hunter shell, but removed a lot of the higher variance fragile minions for some more durable early game threats.  The deck is a bit slower, but still has pretty good matchups against the popular decks seeing play.

Undertaker this card is extremely good.  I've never had him be smaller than a 2/3 by turn 2, and he can scale very well into the mid-game.  Dealing a bunch of damage and then trading up is just what you want to be doing.

Leper Gnome, isn't nearly as good, but is still solid on turn 1 and are needed to support the undertaker. 

Webspinner Has good synergy with undertaker, isn't nearly as aggressive as a 1 drop, but also can draw cards off buzzard and can help fill the curve with whatever you get off him.

Haunted Creeper This was zombie chow until recently, but the lifegain on the zombie proved too bad, and so I wanted the best deathrattle that was cheap, and this is it probably.

Mad Scientist Triggers the undertaker, and is just a solid card.  Lets you effectively run more copies of explosive trap and freezing trap.  May want to run 1 copy of misdirection so that he always has a target. 

Explosive Trap and Freezing Trap They have always been at least worth considering in hunter decks, and now with the mad scientist they gain a bit of value, which is just upside since they would be played in aggro hunter anyways.

Flare a metagame call, personally over 1/2 my games are against secret hunter decks, and occasionally a secret mage deck, and it is just the best card ever against those decks.  I would add 1 haunted creeper and a dire wolf alpha if you don't play against secret decks.

All the other cards are fairly obvious for an aggro hunter deck, and can't ever be cut.
