This is my best shot at a control hunter deck so far. It captures several of hunter's best win control type win conditions, (spiteful, big beasts, zombeasts, and deathrattles). I've been playing with this deck for about two weeks, and it is a lot of fun, every game is different. This deck has lots of different win conditions, so you are not screwed if you don't draw spiteful or kathrena. Although this deck is off meta, it can definitley beat aggro palading

Please note that this is by no means a competitive deck. For the time I've played this deck, I've been stuck at rank 12, so please don't play this deck thinking you will climb to legend. This deck is purely for fun, and I promise it is fun. Despite this deck having many on curve win conditions, I feel the skill cap of this deck is relatively high, compared to other hunter decks on the ladder. I feel whenever I lose a close game there were almost always things I could've done better had I been more familiar with the deck.

If you have spent anytime at all looking through the deck list, you will probably notice that there are some very unusual inclusions. I feel the weirdest inclusion is Prince Keleseth, in a control deck. Well, for one thing, keleseth has good synergy with recruit style decks, especially when the minions being recruited have taunt or charge. Also with this being a spiteful deck, there arn't many two cost minions that a hunter would want to run in a control deck. We're cutting the secret package to make Spiteful Summoner more consistent, and really the only two drop I was considering adding was Loot Hoarder. I felt like this was a perfect opportunity to add keleseth to the deck, it makes a great addition, and I recommend trying it out. 

The second unusual inclusion in this deck is Deathwing. I originally didn't have Deathwing in this deck, but as this is a very slow deck, I felt like there had to be just a last ditch effort card, to let you live for just a couple more turns. Nothing says, "last ditch effort," quite like good ol' deathwing does. You can draw deathwing from The Curator, and it can win you games, even though it is usually a dead draw. This deck typically has not trouble with having an empty hand, so drawing deathwing early is never too big of a setback, the biggest problem is do you have the courage to discard your entire hand of giant beasts and legendaries.
