Hey all.

deck:
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).

Thanks for the tips, and information!
57% winrate is nothing to brag about, and contrary to your belief it does not mean it's a good deck.
Is there a way to fit leeroy into this deck?
Perhaps, but it doesn't play into this deck's win conditions. Hunter Midrange has always been one of the more flood/board control-centric kind if decks and a 6 (or 8) damage finisher is 1) underwhelming and 2) doesn't help board state. Though I understand the interest in the card, I do not believe this deck should fit in leeroy.
Currently rank 9 on EU :) Altough i changed a few stuff here and there to even better crush aggro.
This deck is really relevant in current meta
Thx
How do I beat Control Warrior? Do i need N'zoth? I have Princess Huhuran instead and not working so well... they alwasys end up with a ton of armor before i can do shit.
He commented on a N'Zoth decklist...
Hi there,
don´t see the Snaketrap value, replaced it with Freezing Trap.
Also replaced Beartrap with Explotrap vs Zoo.
Went pretty well from 8 to 5 with 1 loss against Zoo.
Snake trap is for call of the wild as the 3 snakes are 6 damage and can help with trading. Propably not worth 400 dust though to be honest.
This deck loses pretty bad to warrior. Played 7 in a row, all variations, and beat 2 of them.
is snake trap a good card in this deck? most midrange decks I see nearly always run freezing trap... just wondered what snake trap had over it? I can see why bear trap would be useful against aggro of course
13-3 from 19-12. Pretty good deck. I almost never get to play N'Zoth but I still think that it's a good inclusion.
Just built the deck, and won against zoo and midrange shaman XD. Like it!!!
Can I replace rhino with sylvanas? I really like reviving her with n'zoth, however I'm worried it might make her somewhat of a "win more" card.
I don't know why but I always lose with this deck, passed from rank 13 to rank 20 in EU, 4-23... Am I unlucky or what...? N'zoth priest defeat, Dragon priest defeat, War Pirate defeat, didn't encounter shamans, even with other hunters I lose... Help pls...
Hmmm... It is a bit different deck to pilot than u might used to. Probablu ure not saving juggler-unleash combo when u should.
This deck is probably the best hunter deck I have played since the old gods came out! You can definitely feel the strength of the call of the wild
I did a video showcasing the deck which i hope you enjoy as much as I liked the deck :)
