*Update* Replaced Snipe with Cat Trick
Hi there!
I've had a lot of success with this deck since the release of the new Opera wing.
Barnes and Cloaked Huntress are really great cards, and seem to settle nicely into this aggro/midrange hunter list.
There are few cards that can be moved about, but I climbed from rank 11 to rank 5 with 3 losses in total today. The key is to understand the versatility of this deck and to try and suss out early in the game whether to be more aggressive with your face damage or control board.
Depending on what you are facing whilst climbing you could easily replace one:
- Kindly Grandmother
- Tundra Rhino
and sub in an extra
- Unleash the hounds
- Stampeding Kodo
- Quick Shot (though I feel it's not needed)
- Deadly shot
If this gets more than 20 likes I'll do a more in depth mulligan guide, but the deck is pretty straight forward. If you have secrets, coin and Cloaked Huntress then keep your hand...Otherwise try to find Fiery Bat and a nice curve. Barnes is also nice to keep with coin. Without coin try to find King's Elekk, Fiery Bat or Kindly Gradmother...Even a Quickshot can work against a class that you know is going to have a strong/troublesome 3 health minion early on like shaman, warlock priest.
Happy Hunting!
Chaosmale
For quick shot I would say maybe loot hoarders or cults, however without call of the wild it would be hard...Just look for a strong 8 drop that you have :)
Would love to see the mulligan guide now that the deck has over 30 likes!
So dope dude! Thought about adding cat trick instead of snipe? Or maybe something else?
So good man, glad you're enjoying!
Hi,thank you for this nice deck. In 2 days i got 9 rank from 16.
So good dude! Glad you enjoyed it
Hey dude why no sylvanas or kindly grandmother? They work really well..
Hey man if you read the decklist there are X 2 Kindly Gradmother included in this deck. Sylvanas is a great card, but I am yet to try it in this list. Generally Sylvanas isn't a card that is included in many hunter decks unless N'zoth is being played
Pretty sure I faced this last game, but he had two huge toads instead of grandmothers. What do you say? Is it a good replacement? Oh yeah, he destroyed me.
Huge toad could be swapped in, however I think that grandmother being sticky is a huge bonus. Give it a try and let me know how you go!
well it got me from rank 11 to rank 4 with 3 losses...So i think its viable. Give it a go man!
Sub for rag ?
That's a tough one, because it has great synergy with Barnes and also finishes a game nicely. I'd maybe run a King Krush or just stack more in the mid with an extra unleash (If you are coming up against a lot of zoo) or another houndmaster/stampeding kodo could make it slightly more versatile in controlling a game. Good luck man!
Alright bro ! Thank you i appreciate that, i think i'll be endind up crafting rag , but i'm waiting a little bit so i think i'll put a second unleash cause the low ranks are only zoo everytime.
Nice man, let me know how you go!
Only managed a 6-4 on rank 10 to 9. Ok.
Thik its gonna need more traps and atleast another explosive against beast druids. Think theres gonna be alot more of em in the close future.
I wouldn't suggest running another explosive, but maybe try an extra quick shot, deadly or hounds. I haven't come up against many beast druids, but I don't think overdoing secrets would do much good, secrets are only part of the reason this deck works well. I just hit rank 4. Best of luck compadre!
Yeah you're probably right.
Played some more with it and just hit rank 5. Works great against all rez priests that's all over the place right now.
Edit: Rank 4 now ^^ great deck. Anyone legend with it yet?
Nice one man! Congrats. I haven't played for a while because of uni, but let me know if you make it!
I will try out this deck today. Seing the concept of the deck I am quite sure I will like it a lot!
