DISCLAIMER - This Deck is similar to Reynads' with possible changes, however, I created this deck without checking out those possible changes, I dont watch his stream as well. Just coincidence. Nonetheless I give all the credits to Reynad for MS deck idea.
After MS deck was published by Reynad I've tried it and got 5 rank, even got 2nd after I've changed some cards. I was tired of Hunters, so I tried priest, lock, war etc. to gain legend - that was unlucky for me - back to rank 9. After couple days around rank 5 I've decided to change some stuff and create some sort of zoo hunter.
Main difference from other hunters - no Starving Buzzard and Unleash the Hounds.
Just mulligan for Flare against Hunters and Mages. Ur main combo for all matchups - Undertaker + any deathrattle (esp. if u have coin + Leper Gnome or Webspinner.
Your goal is to kill opponent as fast as u can, control the board, attack with Eaglehorn Bow, use Tracking for double Kill Command etc. You will figure out how to play this.
This deck brought me to legend from rank 5 curse in 2 days. Good luck!
P.S. I dont like playing this easy deck (same with zoolock), but I had a goal to get legend in any case.
Video from my stream, where I got legendary. Hunter vs Hunter. (Russian language)
How do you beat zoo with this? Also it feels like if I don't draw my undertakers I'm just stuck with all this 1 or 2 drops and getting overwhelmed sooner or later.
Zoo cant heal himself and kill ur minions with spells. U've got hero power. Smart usage of traps is the best way to deal with zoo. However, if zoo gets perfect start with coin double falme imps and turn 5 doomguard - it's gg unless u have ur traps + board control. I defeat zoo with 60% winrate.
Best deck ever! Hunters are the hardest class to win with.
Nice deck, this finally brought me to legend after strugling at rank 3 for few days.
This deck is professional-grade. Please remove.
Alas, I was misunderstood... I was hoping to prevent the proliferation of this deck because it's ingredients are excellent. Well done.
This works, used it last night and went 8-2. I only lost to two priests. I am considering taking out tracking and adding in a leeroy or a king krush. I've noticed the games that my webspinner give me a king krush they were super easy wins. Good work.
I played with it this morning. It's ok. Priest will it you up like its cake. But I couldn't get a better win rate than my normal midrange deck. It did better against other aggro however. Thanks for sharing.
Mulligan for traps only vs zoo, otherwise use ms to activate traps. IF u got undertaker at the start - great, otherwise dont drop 1-2 mana minions, cause u need to start attaking face from turn 1 to win.
This deck is extremely good in high ranks. I've gone 8W - 2L so far and sitting on Rank 2 - 3 stars.
I replaced tracking with Leeroy.
I take it you're the idiot downvoting everyone then?
Probably. Lets downvote him to oblivion for such a stupid, shortsighted comment.
That's like saying "Doomguard is OP, why don't you run it in Handlock?"
Because it's not good FOR that deck.... People are really irritating sometimes.
I was using the standard hunter deck around rank 11 going up and down a rank used this deck and shot up to 9 no problem 1 lose with this deck so far and its against the same deck
Burst damage wrecks handlock. It should be one of the easiest matchups. Make sure you hero power as much as possible, hit his face before he gets taunts up, and finish him with kill commands.
Created an account just to thank you for this deck. I was stuck between rank 5-2 for about 3 weeks. I used this deck and went from rank 3 to legend in 4 hours. I replaced 1 highmane for leroy.
I'm going to have to try that. After climbing from 8 to 4 I've been stuck for hours, sitting dead on a 50% win rate.
Yeah you really just need to play based on what's in your hand. Don't play every game with the same plan. If you get burst damage go for face, if you get minions and traps then control the board.
I was destroying with this deck yesterday. Today, I've just lost every one of my first four games. Going to keep using it in the hopes my fortune turns around again. :/
EDIT: Finally a win on match 5. Ironically against another Hunter.
I cant seem to get past Taunts... Any advice?
You need to save Hunter's Mark, Kill Command, or use Ice Trap's prudently to take down Taunts, but if your opponent just keeps throwing them down (as happened to me against a Priest today) you're going to fall behind very quickly.
EDIT: I like to save Hunter's Mark for the final strike. The enemy will typically throw up a Taunt, thinking they've stalled you long enough to make it to their next turn. Then you reduce the Taunt to 1 health and kill it with a small minion and go in for the kill.
Ditto for Kill Command. So many of my final blows have been a Kill Command bypassing their taunts completely.
