Notes
In the past few weeks Midrange Hunter was on the cusp of being #1 again but struggled a bit as it was forced to run cards like Abusive Sergeant.
Now that Quick Shot is avalible Midrange Hunter has entered its prime. Era seems to be the first to craft a solid Midrange list with Quick Shot as he has managed to hold #1 NA all week with this list and many others have had success with it as well.
The Kezan was added to deal with Freeze Mage which was popular at the start of the week and is good against vs Face Hunter which has historically kept Midrange Hunter down.
Lastly, Explosive Trap is back in Midrange Hunter for the first time in a while as a nod to the heavy Zoo presence in the meta.
#1 deck - Ladder Snapshot #13 (4/25/15 ; tempostorm)
Replacement for Mad Scientist?
it's the best card in the deck(secret 4 free)
Yes, it is true, there really is no replacement for crazy science dude, but really, is this much toxicity necessary? The question doesn't deserve minus 10, and also it is a fair question to ask if one does not have Curse of Naxx.
Yeah, I didn't have Naxx, sheesh chill guys o.0
this is the funniest thing i've ever seen on this website and i don't even know why i need help
Nice, simple deck. Thanks for sharing.
This is not huntard. It actually takes skill unlike face hunter, and requires lots of strategy to play properly. Don't hate on other people's class decisions.
What about Cult Master? Generally this kind of deck runs out of steam if it doesn't get a great start.
I could see this deck being good with Cult master rather that Kezan Mystic, however, one might also argue that because Quick Shots are in the deck, a cult master would be unnecessary.
This is why I swapped Kezan for Cult master and the two hound masters for two defenders of argus, thoughts?
Im having the same feeling. Sometimes i leak a good turn 4 to establish my board more. But if u get effort of houndmaster in turn 4 u might be far ahead. Nothing more left to say, great deck.
Great Deck! Can you put out a mulligan guide?
For all those who may be concern .
you need to be a specific player in order to get the best out of hunter .
for me - i'm just too "control-board-minion-based" player therefore im very weak playing with all kind of hunter's deck and thats unfortuant cause i have all the card for this class :) (mb beast synergy, but "that belong to the museum")
that's why - for example im above average at arena run's (Minion-based-board-ctrl-value-blablabla)
and in constructed it's paladin mage priest or go home mister.
good luck to you all those face-zoo-alike player's :)
Midranged hunter is control board minion based, just look at all the high value cards in this deck.
Midrange Hunter is more like Zoo in it's "control" aspects. There's a point in the game where you just need to go face and forget trading, etc, or you'll never win. I would say Zoo hits that point later due to the ability to keep flooding board, value trading, Draw, etc, while Hunter's Hero Power lends it self far more to an earlier abandonment of the control game and just going face.
Obviously this all depends on matchups.
The reason hunter can't be a good control deck is the fact that its hero ability does 2 dmg to face, Which is very aggressive.
Basically Hunter only does good as faceHunter or Midranged.
Actually hunter can be a good control deck in the right meta, there was a period right after the Undertaker nerf where the meta became extremely control heavy and control hunter did really well. basically control hunter can keep up with extremely greedy decks long enough that it reaches a point where it simply can do more damage to the other person then they can do to hunter so the control hunter wins. However control hunter is hopeless when it comes to aggro matchups which is why it is never seen out side of the rare extreme greed metas
Thats actually a mistake, you are still a Hunter so dont Trade Every time, dont take the game to Slow, cuz there are actually Only 3 bis threats you have!
Midrange hunter is all about controlling the board until a point where if you go all face even if you lose your whole board you can still win via bow, hero power, kill command, and quick shot. If you don't think you opponent has a way to deal with your board then let them make the trades and get that extra damage in on their face
What can I replace Dr. Boom with considering I still don't have it?
