Used Hakkaro Hunter myself and won by turn 6 - of course, because I went first. I agree with all others who have said that going first provides a huge advantage. I wonder why Blizzard didn't design it so that the first player got one turn, then everyone else got two thereafter (as suggested above). Seems like that would have been a little more balanced, or at least fairer to the player going second.
This deck is only successful with the right RNG pulls. Waiting around until turn 5 and hoping for the right cards really puts a player in the hole to start. Too much luck required to run this deck.
Your opinion may change when you try the Lich King. I have tried with three different decks (Mage, Hunter, Druid) and each time his hero power pwns me.
Why suggest Arcanologist when there are no secrets in the deck? Seems like Acidic Swamp Ooze might be a better replacement to have some recourse against decks that depend on weapons.

Does it make sense to include an Ironbeak Owl for the silence effect? Possibly as a replacement for one of the 1-drops or maybe one of the Hyenas?

Thanks for this idea. Took a few tries to get the right starting cards but eventually the Jade Idols and Auctioneer took over and did the trick.
