UPVOTE FOR FACE NATION!

SO you're probably wondering where the DK is in this deck well...

Its bad, and I don't mean like it Firebat's hair BAD, i mean like Jake Paul's new song kind of BAD. It should not belong in this type of deck period. You need as much tempo and board control as possible to push face and the DK is the exact opposite. 

For any wondering I just got back into hearthstone after a few months break and started the day before the nerf. After it went live I got on the grind and got from rank 20 to 3 with an overall win rate of 72% across 61 games (44-17). Try it out for yourself and start hitting those other DK hunters in the face ASAP. Goodluck!

Edit: So since I don't know how to post my stats from hearth tracker here they are in glorious writing!

VS Druid 3-3

VS Hunter 11-0 (lol foreal tho)

VS Mage 6-1

VS Paladin 4-2

VS Priest 8-5

VS Rogue 3-2

VS Shaman 3-4 

VS Warlock 4-0

VS Warrior 2-0

Total: 44-17 (72% WR)

 

Edit #2

In honor of getting 1k views again ( special thanks to you filthy aggro players) Ill be posting the mulligan guide and basic strategy on how to win the most requested meta matchups. Ill post updates on any wacky decks that pop up as well and how to crush them, go get em tiger.

AGAINST HUNTER (DK hunter is only prominent class)

Keep: Alleycat, Crackling Razormaw, Bloodsail Corsair, Kindly Grandmother, Golakka Crawler

Strategy: Save Bloodsail Corsair for Eaglehorn Bow or after he's played his Golakka Crawler early. Board control is the top priority here so if you lose it you can't out value the DK and his big Bittertide Hydra. Whoever gets the best use of Houndmaster will decide the game so trade efficiently and find that sweet timing to pulling the trigger and going face. 

AGAINST PRIEST (Razakus or Big Priest)

Keep: Bearshark, Animal Companion with coin, Alleycat keep with Crackling Razormaw

Strategy: Bearshark is the man here, its all about buffing him with Houndmaster and rushing him down before Dragonfire Potion, then refilling with trackers or rushing him down with Savannah Highmane. Play around Potion of Madness AT ALL COSTS. It will beat you up and take your lunch money if you're dumb enough to fall for that 2 face damage. 

AGAINST DRUID (Jade mainly, Aggro is not as common) 

Keep:Alleycat, Crackling Razormaw, Kindly Grandmother, keep Animal Companion with coin

Strategy: RUSH HIM DOWN, don't go wide on board due to Spreading Plague, save silence for Taunts and make him trade since its very inefficient for him and will mess up his ramp overall. Pressure is key, and if he makes it to turn 10 you're probably dead. 

AGAINST ROGUE (Keleseth is a rough matchup)

Keep:Alleycat, Crackling Razormaw, Bloodsail Corsair, Kindly Grandmother, Golakka Crawler

Strategy: Step 1) Pray he doesn't get Prince Keleseth, Step 2) he gets it, Step 3) Panic badly. After panicking make sure to maximize Golakka Crawler since they roll the pirate package, try to snowball off of beasts with Crackling Razormaw, and pray you get silence for when he goes all in on Edwin VanCleef.

AGAINST WARRIOR (Free win against Deadman's version so mulligan hard against pirates)

 Keep:  Bloodsail Corsair, Kindly Grandmother, Golakka Crawler

Strategy: Golakka Crawler seriously mulligan, draw it and win. If it's the Deadman's variant then play around Brawl and whirlwind effects as best as possible. You should be able to rush them down with your stacked up beasts, and refill with trackers.
