Sure, hunters don't have Divine Favor - but they do have access to Cult Master (which has become much more popular since the Buzzard nerf) and Tundra Rhino, which has the potential to turn this into a baby King Krush.
Clearly this is not a thing to build for (folks don't run KK, why would they run a conditional combo to emulate him), but I suspect that the Core Rager is still going to prove a worthwhile utility card. Not necessarily an auto-include, but I think it's going to be worth at least considering.
Mmm. This seems like an obvious waste of time (even more so if you have Krush), and I knew immediately upon seeing this card that I am going to have to try it.
I think that Core Rager might see some play in beast hunter just because its a viable four drop. Its only competing with Oasis Snapjaw and Lost Tallstrider for the beast four slot. And while that extra one attack on Lost Tallstrider might seem better it puts it into priest kill range and the extra battlecry makes Core Rager a better card for late game. I mean everyone yells about facehunter but I think this is better in a tempo beast hunter or at the very least a great arena pull.
It's an arena card, don't think too much into it. Even if you are going to play a hunter deck that goes into the late game you have better alternatives Dr.boom, sylvanes, Ragnaros, savanah highmane, heck even King Krush and ghaz'rilla will make a better fit into a lategame hunter deck.
Oh and you don't have play any of those cards from an empty hand to get something decent out of them. It will be valuable in Arena that much I can't disagree.
If you look closely, you can see this is a signature and not a comment. Why are you reading? Stop reading this. Did you read this too? Dang you must like reading.
On turn 10? Assuming you drew a 2 mana card when you had only these too cards in hand...

Garbage. Not even remotely good in face hunter (which sucks atm). First off, it's way too expensive to fit into the curve, secondly, you rarely have an empty hand because you just don't want to just throw your UtH, Kill Commands and Ironbeaks for instance.
Beast hunter decks still run cards like UtH and kill command so the difference is not that big. Also, because of the midrange elements in the deck you are even more unlikely to have an empty hand and giving your Rager full value.
Years ago, in MTG there was a goblin deck called "suicide goblin" it can fit in such type of deck. Not in a classical face hunter but in a suicide variant...

Well they probably know that only Hunters can play Hunter class cards.
Is it hunter class? When i first viewed the minion it was neutral....
I need YOUR feedback on my ideas for this weeks card contest!

Aaaaaaaand it's a Beast!? I despise Hunter.

Why am I sticky?
well unfortunately it is debate with other great 4 mana drops like Piloted Shredder, Defender of Argus or Senjin Shieldmasta.
They are all more played than this one.
As others said it will be easily BGHed when you have an empty hand.
