Hey, I'm Breytonioso (or Brexton), legend player with over 1000 ranked hunter wins. Midrange hunter has always been my favourite deck, but the viability has been somewhat lacking in the recent meta. Early board leads that translated to turn 7 wins after dropping that highmane on turn 6, or having too much board pressure for a freeze mage to deal with is what made midrange hunter feel so good, but the strength of the deck has faltered beneath the sheer strength of control and combo decks... until now.

Although it's only a few days into The Witchwood, I think it can be agreed upon that the strongest decks we know of are:

  • Cubelock
  • Odd Paladin
  • Even Paladin
  • Spiteful Druid
  • Spiteful Priest
  • Tempo Mage 
  • Face Hunter, and
  • Battlecry Shaman

This deck can consistently win against all of these decks given the matchup is played correctly, but most importantly, this deck crushes the most popular deck on the ladder - Odd Paladin. Of the 10+ games I have played against odd paladin using this deck, I have won over 90% of them due to early board efficient minions and cards which can counter the flood paladin brings to the board each turn. 

If this receives 20 upvotes I will write a detailed guide, but for now have fun climbing with a hunter deck that requires at least some brain cells.
