Hey all.

Game Plan.
Early-on you want to keep their board as clean as possible. Use removals like Quick Shot, Eaglehorn Bow(Sometimes good Kill Command.This tempo deck than normal Midrange. On start we must keep board.On turn 8 use Call of the Wildand end game. My average game time 9.6 turns.
Replacements.
- N'Zoth, the Corruptor: N'Zoth very good if you meet many control decks. Can replaced for Princess Huhuran or Sylvanas Windrunner
- Quick Shot: can be replaced for second Eaglehorn Bow or Arcane Shot.
- Huge Toad: if you don have LoE can replace for Flame Jugglers.
- Snake Trap: can be replaced for secondBear Trap or Freezing Trap
- Call of the Wild: its core card and dont have replacements.
- VERSUS AGGRO:
- -1 Snake Trap,-1 Bear Trap
- +2 Explosive Trap
- VERSUS CONTROL:
- -1 Unleash the Hounds
- +1 Deadly Shot
Matchups.
Quick Shot, Eaglehorn Bow, King's Elekk, Huge Toad, Fiery Bat. Versus Aggro just try to control the board and play a bit more defensive. Versus Totem it's a bit harder since they flood the board but we have Unleash the Hounds.
Fiery Bat, King's Elekk, Huge Toad, Animal Companion, Knife Juggler, C'Thun Druids are slow and you win easily. They dont have good AOE. Just keep board and lethal him
Fiery Bat, King's Elekk, Huge Toad, Animal Companion, Knife Juggler, Eaglehorn Bow Easy matchup. Priests now dont have Lightbombs. But remember they have 1-2 Excavated Evil.
Quick Shot, Eaglehorn Bow, King's Elekk, Huge Toad, Fiery Bat. Mirror. I saw more Hunters and all of them have Doomsayers. Just keep board and win.
Fiery Bat, King's Elekk, Huge Toad, Animal Companion, Knife Juggler, Eaglehorn Bow, Unleash the Hounds. Against zoolock control board with early drops and removals in midgame can pressure him.
Flame Juggler, King's Elekk, Eaglehorn Bow, Animal Companion, Fiery Bat, and Huge Toad Against warriors good Stampeding Kodo versus Bloodhoof Brave, Acolyte of Pain.Control warrios too slow and we have too much damage. If you see Frothing Berserker its dont control warrior he has 2x Ravaging Ghouls and Whirlwinds so he can easily clear your low hp board.
Fiery Bat, King's Elekk, Huge Toad, Animal Companion, Knife Juggler, Eaglehorn Bow Tempo Mage depends a lot on draw and who establishes stronger tempo is usually the winner.Mages in Standard keep at least one Flamestrike and some even keep two of them. Try to use Call of the Wild only as lethal because of that Flamestrike.
Fiery Bat, King's Elekk, Huge Toad, Animal Companion, Knife Juggler, Eaglehorn Bow. Just pressure him but don't overdo your board cos of his AOEs and that should be it, just like with Mage try to use Call of the Wild only for lethal.Easily matchup.
Fiery Bat, King's Elekk, Huge Toad, Animal Companion, Knife Juggler, Eaglehorn Bow. Just play as aggressive as you can and think about their Sap, if they used it already and all that.Face is the Place in this matchup. Trade only when its needed (for example kill Bloodmage Thalnos so he doesn't use Fan of Knives and destroy you turn after).

Well done Nick Chipper! Went from Rank 20 to 14 with one loss (dirty face hunter).
Don't you mean Knife Juggler instead of Flame Juggler for Warrior mulligan?
Hi,
I just wanted to say I love this deck. I usually don't play Hunter and this deck really got me into it.
Here's a video that I made that really shows the power of N'Zoth in this deck.
Can you imagine a place for Princess Huhuran in this deck? I don't think that two Thundra Rhinos will survive very often.
I don't know if Princess is good in this deck. My best win condition is having 1-4 beasts on board before CotW, Princess could put too many on board.
Rhinos are great in this deck. Have you played it?
I wish we anybody could say ''replace some 1-drops or 2-drops'', but since Hunter doesn't have efficient board clears or recovery mechanics by itself a control-ish hunter is an almost imposible chimera. Hunter IS an aggresive class
Or maybe you should be considering adding Doomsayer, some heavy deathrattles + Loot Hoarders and Huhuran if you have it of course
N'Zoth is the answer when your game goes past turn 10. Usually you win before that, but if not N'zoth can win the game.
Awesome deck. 20-11 in less than hour, and that's with only one CotW (only have one) and no snake trap.
Why Tundra Rino?
If it survives turn 7, you drop CotW turn 8
It does. It's also a good drop on turn 9 if it survives and you've played enough of your deathrattles. Drop N'zoth, game over.
its a good card, works like a taunt, opponent forced to remove it, if not you can do some nasty dmg with highmane on following turn or infested wolfs, or clear board efficiently, all your beasts get charge the ones from death rattle too
Rhino works great for me, even on turn 6, gives fiery bat charge--and if you have it up and kill your infested wolf or savannah, the released beasts get charge, gives board control. If you have it up and then CotW, gg.
Really nice deck I beat every Shaman I've seen today
Is it worth to craft snake trap?
also wondering
You can replace it with explosive trap .
much better for all those agro-zoo-pala-warloc-shamans-whores ^_^
I agree with others here....I have snake-trap, but will try to switch for explosive due to the amount of zoo in the EU-meta...
I use freezing trap instead, it works fine for me, but I think explosive pretty good too.
I guess reason why snake fits in this deck is a combo with Knife Juggler
