Got to to Legend 28 by mostly playing this deck.

Sup guys,
first of all thanks for the positive feedback so far. This guide is just going to focus on the tech decisions and explains the general game strategy.
Basically this is a standard Midrange Hunter Deck just with more aggressive techcards. So your game strategy is to control the board early to midgame, until you can outrace your opponent with your Hero Power, the board you build up and direct Damage spells.
This deck does really well against all sorts of Aggro and Midrangedecks, but has a hard time against Controldecks like Renolock or Controlpriest.
Why Leper Gnome?
Leper Gnome can trade with a lot of 2 drops like Dark Peddler or Knife Juggler and when uncontested gives you nice face damage (+the dmg of the death rattle). And with its death rattle, Leper Gnome is also able to deal face dmg through taunts, which might come in handy.
Why 1 Webspinner?
Turn 1 Webspinner isn't even that strong of a play, since its stats are weak. But it works really well as an activator for Kill Command or Houndmaster. And a third 1Drop makes you curve out better.
Why Explosive Trap?
I think its really good against decks that flood the board. Also running 2 copys of it is kinda necessary to make sure that you draw a copy or get one out of Mad Scientist. It also stops the Druidcombo and often wins you the game if you play it before their turn 9. Furthermore people dont expect Explosive Traps in Midrange Hunter, so they often just go for face thinking it isFreezing Trap or Snake Trap.
Mulligans:
They really depent on what class you are facing and have been explained in several other Midrange Hunter Guides.
Gameplay:
Thanks to Khristophesaurus for the Gameplay Video.

Deck works way better on ladder than any of the other midrange hunters currently around. I probably write a more detailed guide if this gets enough upvotes, but mulligan and general strategy is basically the standard of midrange hunter.
Alright mate this deck seems pretty great but the only things I don't have are a single Eaglehorn Bow and Quick Shot. So subs for Quick Shot and Eaglehorn Bow?
Eaglehorn, UtH, Kill Command, Animal companion..there really isnt a need for a 9th three drop :/ and a 2 mana 1/1 is pretty bad solo
Turn 7'd a mech druid. Strange decks out here at lvl 15...
Lol now I turn 6'd a control warrior. Without using the two kill commands that were in my hand.
10/10 ign deck
Gladiator's Longbow any good in this deck?
no
Any place for hunters mark? Hard removals are a problem here (esp Deathlords, Giants and early Fel Reavers)
Hi!
Thank you for sharing deck. I haven't dr. boom and replaced it with Ram Wrangler. Also, what you think about Freezing Trap instead of Explosive Trap × 1 ?
Now i am playing around 13 rank and can't go up(
What about -1 Webspinner +1 Sir Finley Mrrgglton ?
Just saying, bad idea. Hunter hero power is irreplaceable because of how it can carry you to win late game. Constant 2 damage to the face is just too good when hunter relies mostly on getting early board control to win.
yeah hi there Im an europe player and my highest rank is 6 and Im looking this season to get to atleast rank 5.Im a free to play player and I only need dr boom which I am going to craft and I need to ask you is this deck still viable in this meta nad should I play it?sorry for my english.
Is it still viable I am thinking of crafting it?
ty man just crafted dr boom and ready to play this deck.
(Newbie Question) I am not the worst player in the world but playing this deck in casual mode lead to horrible results. Is this deck somekind of "ranked only"? At the moment i am rank 20, my highest one was 13 and i am looking forward something viable and testing it in non-ranked mode. I mean... i would do exactly the same moves as the ones you did in the videos but i am still loosing in casual mode so hard.
I am so sorry for my english :) Cheers.
Hey, your english seems pretty good, partner.
Well, Casual is not what you want, because it have absurd decks, the thing you found here are, like, absurd and impressive. I think you should try to go foward than rank 13, because the deck is pretty good.
Even if doesn't work, use another deck, maybe this deck here is not for ya.
Cheers!
This dec is not working at all! Always get countered by the bad RNG! Every game the opponent has an answer for me!
Man, continue playing with the deck, you will find people that have super cards vs you, and in other time you'll have the super cards. RNG is RNG, man.
went from top of 18 to rank 20 with this deck. Everyone I have played had a answer card for whatever I played. The RNG was so bad
Just hit legend with this deck! worked amazing from rank 2 - legend!
thanks
best hunter deck that i've played
