Rexxar was born to go face, right? Wrong.

Rexxar gets confused when he can't go face, right? Wrong.

Smorc to win? Wrong.

 

Everything is wrong and kinda out of place with this deck. Its like Hunter got tired of murdering face so much and decided to take a different approach. He is meant to be an aggro slayer and that's exactly what this deck is about.

I got so tired of the brainless face and tempo decks around the meta that I tried to imagine what would be the best counter to aggro. Obviously something that can stall the game with excessive healing and removal; but wait, if that's the case... how do you kill the opponent? That's exactly where Hunter comes in. He has the tools to not only bring nightmare and chaos on the board but to also efficiently kill the opponent by turning the tides. 

I'll explain myself more in the guide.

General Mulligan

 

Against Aggro (your favorite food):

You want to find:

  • Snake Trap
  • Arcane Shot
  • Explosive Trap - Your bread and butter against rushers, you got 2 of them.
  • King's Elekk - This card is ESSENTIAL in this deck and makes this deck possible. Initially, I wondered how I could consistently get Reno Jackson when I needed him. Excessive card draw would just weaken my deck. This is one more reason Hunter is perfect for such a counter-aggro task. King's Elekk can fish for Reno anytime in the game, when you need him. You got only 7 minions in the deck, 2 of which are the Elekks. You're going to almost always draw a card with him sincer all the minions are high mana and you're never going to regret playing him. He thins the deck to the point where drawing into Reno (*cough* if you need him) wouldn't be a problem. The Elekk also gets you the tools for endgame. Such a great card.
  • Eaglehorn Bow - Keep the bow. With such an insane amount of secrets, you'll never run out of durability.
  • Powershot - You keep it situational, especially against Shaman.

 Against Control (wait that? there's also control decks?):

No problem! You can beat those too, with a little bit of luck.

Here is a pic of a poor Shammy, meeting his fate.

 Keep in mind that this is first day of season and everyone is playing cancer aggro.
