This is a tough matchup because any kind of divine spirit/inner fire priest combo deck gets beat up by hunters mark, and hunter is just a faster class then priest so you have to find ways to make your priest faster. My priest ladder deck does well against hunters because of early taunt (and late taunt) and a good tempo. Just avoid dropping more minions then you need to because hunter often benefits from your extra minions. Keep a full hand and try to anticipate what hunter might do each turn. This matchup is usually a waiting game and hunter, like zoo, should run out of steam before you do.
No Priest baseline deck is ideal against Hunters. For the time being, you need to add tech cards because there are too many Hunters on the ladder. Anti-weapon cards and healing minions work well.

Actually I have a priets deck that is close to 80% winrate against hunters. It's a malygos + PV spell deck. Very few minions, only for draw. Destroys hunter.
I'd say its more about specific cards.. Shadow Madness & dreadlord are very strong along with smite/pyromancer. Harrison Jones is also gaining a lot of popularity.
Can someone please tell which Priest deck gives hunters the most trouble?

Do you want to share? And how is the matchup against other popular decks on the ladder, especially Zoo in its many forms?
