Why are people still thinking its Hunterstone ? Its not!
That's your takeaway from this thread? Lol! XD You're triggered just because someone used the term Hunterstone... oh dear...
Hunter is way more interactive and fun to play against , and i dont see them nowhere as much as i face Priests. https://imgur.com/a/1BzKR8n
Subjective opinion is subjective... I've added my own statistics for you to this comment. Because this is what I got, this must be the same for everyone. right? Ooh lookee! 27% for both Hunter and Paladin! Yeah, no Hunters playing right now... Yay statistics!
If i would be a mod here , i would demand OP to take the post down , since it is clearly not "Hunterstone".
Good thing you're not then, since you would be asking the OP to do something that is not within their power. Forum users cannot delete a thread once it is created. And demanding a thread be deleted just because your #feels are hurt by a simple term like "Hunterstone" is rather childish - generally not the sort of quality that admins would look for in a Mod, usually.
My feelings are not hurt.
Your term is simply misleading and wrong .
Just watch some streamers, all they meet is Priest and Paladin (mostly). Maybe at lower Ranks there are a lot of Hunter, because its easy to pilot.... But we shouldnt focus on those ranks , shouldnt we?
If you're at such a low rank, then fair enough. I don't know what you're likely to face down there. Up here at Rank 5-legend, there's more Hunters than any other class (except for perhaps Paladin) as the stats show. *shrug *
Well I'd hate to be considered incorrect in my assesment. So let's check the official data report on the actual numbers.... Hunter - the most played deck in All Ranks, Ranks 4-1 AND rank Legend.
In fact, if you look at the numbers for All Ranks, across the game, you'll notice that Hunter outstrips all other classes by ~ twice the amount of players (to the next played class).
So tell me again how this isn't currently Hunterstone? XD
In so many matchups, you desperately need Duskbreaker. Not sure if 6 dragons is enough to get it off consistently enough
Your curve seems a little too lopsided for a deck that needs to get tempo early, I'd consider dropping the Archivists, Benedictus, or Anduin
Not necessary, but Lady in White can work wonders for this archetype. Granted, it has anti-synergy with Twilight Acolyte, but late game thats not really too much of an issue in my experience.

When i wrote " maybe (wich should imply that i am not aware what is going on at lower ranks) at lower Ranks there are a lot of Hunter, because its easy to pilot.
"easy to Pilot" further implys that there are more likely Hunters at lower ranks than at high Legend .
So please read my comment carefully next time , before responding in your cocky way.
Lol this list loses heavily to odd warrior..It's not just hunters in ladder you know.
Quest warrior perhaps. Straight Odd Control Warrior it absolutely destroys! Archbishop Benedictus makes OW cry salty tears. Trust me, these are my all time favourite matchups! :-)

Perhaps you should look at the actual stats I posted before making incorrect statements like this. Legend rank is swamped by just as many Hunters as most other ranks. If you choose to disbelieve the official stats, then that's up to you. You are allowed to do so.
Geist has gotten worse over time, there are better things to run.
Benedictus is going to be relevant in too few matches, not worth it
There's an alarming lack of 5 drops. Other decks can compensate this by running plenty of 4 drops and 1 drops or 2 drops and 3 drops, but that can't work with your list (because you only have two 1 drops and one 2 drop). Why are you not running scalebane? Not only it's a great 5 drop that suits the style of spiteful decks, but it's also a dragon.
In the spirit of the last point, I would also add the second fungalmancer
Other considerations:
The lich king isn't really necessary because you already have 2 copies of free from amber and an archivist (you don't want to make the deck more top heavy than it already is)
The DK is kinda spicy but it would be one of the first things to cut imo.
Not sure if 2 copies of cabal shadow priest are necessary, 1 could be good enough (especially considering it's not great vs hunter)
I decided to go with your suggestion about Scalebane to give it a try: dropping Anduin and Fungelmancer for 2 x Scalebane to increase the number / frequency of dragons. I dropped Fungelmancer because it's too clunky a lot of the time - I definitely think Scalebane is better than him, on latter consideration. ^_^ On a related note, my last game was versus and Odd Warrior. I realised that Skulking Geist is amazing against OW, as it gets rid of the Shield Bashs and Omega Assemblys swinging it heavily in your favour (protects your big minions nicely)

I dont disbelive those stats ( i can even show another graph of the games i play on Legend, surprise , i faced even more Priests its 26% now), but like i said at certain spots on Ladder "Hunterstone" is just not true.
Even Viper the HCT Champion just said on his stream, on eu the last coupple days he mainly faced Priests, maximum 10% Hunter.
I would take out both crystalline oracles and put in a second fungalmancer and a second grand archivist
You don't think 2 Grand Archivists is a little overkill? With only 4 spells in the deck, it feels like there would be a highly likely chance that there isn't a spell to cast.

Interesting list! I haven't seen Archmage Benedictus in a while.
Couple tips that could improve it:
In so many matchups, you desperately need Duskbreaker. Not sure if 6 dragons is enough to get it off consistently enough
Your curve seems a little too lopsided for a deck that needs to get tempo early, I'd consider dropping the Archivists, Benedictus, or Anduin
