Well you got it. If you enjoy slow decks go odd warrior, i have about 80% wr with it against hunters. On the other side if you wanna join them in the cancer quest, stats show that odd pala crushes them.
As a hunter player, odd mage can be a tough matchup because of their numerous board clears and they don't have to play minions to proc your secrets. Once you get to Jaina it's gg. Shudderwock shaman has 5+ board clears to deal with wolves and healing rains to keep out of lethal. These match ups are tough but roughly even, so they're not direct counters, but they have good tools to deal with hunter.
I have 100% WR vs hunter with taunt druid. Spell hunter, midrange hunter and secret hunter simply don't have the tools to win against it from my experience.
I've yet to face a deathrattle hunter, but I think it's very much winnable if they don't get too out of hand early on.
I am really sorry, but I am one of those Hunters. Not capitalizing on the OP meta! I've been a Hunter main ever since Deathstalker Rexxar; it's just such a cool card and it's gotten to the point I got my golden hero. I just love that card and will continue playing it until it rotates out.
Now, to what you want to hear:
1) Odd Paladin. Their explosive stats usually destroy Hunter. Don't get cocky, a coined out Greater Emerald Spellstone on turn 4 can blow out ANY deck, Paladin included, without an answer. Odd Paladin is still your best bet to win against Hunter.
2) Discardlock. It's not a meme deck, just low tier 2. If they get their quest online, it's usually over.
3) Even Shaman. Matchup is slightly favored towards Shaman. It all depends who can spend their mana more efficiently. Control Druids have been run out of Standard by Hunters. It's a good time to be a Shaman.
3 Options of decks that will beat hunter (while also not auto-conceding to everything else) may not seem like much; but I think we have not seen everything out of the expansion. A counter will rise.
Here are some more images from my deck fighting a variety of battles and it destroys them. The only deck we have an issue with is kingsbane and even then if you draw well, I still think this deck can beat it with the taunts and cloning gallery. I only faced one and it is 1 of the 2 losses out of the 20+ games I played since creating this deck. The theory there is if you can either get rid of their weapon or catch them when it is in their deck and pllay Archbishop Benedictus then you can get the weapon and all the buffs.
Priest of all flavors is the definitive answer for all Hunter decks especially Mecha'thun Priest because the deck doesn't give a fuck about DK Rexxar just slows the game down to give you more time to draw your pieces. Also feasts on the Taunt Druids, Control mages and Warriors while also still being effective against Odd Paladin.
Jesus, hunter is Tier 2 at best. No point in suggesting counters OP will still lose due to misplays and a general lack of understanding the game. How the hell do you lose with odd warrior?
There are a number of decks that beat Spell and Secret Hunter. Your top choice would be Taunt Druid. Kingsbane Rogue and Odd Mage will also do nicely. Or you can always play Odd Paladin. As to Deathrattle Hunter, idk, have never played it myself.
Take a look at the imgur links on the description page.
Good Luck,

All IMG are casual mode. Doesn't say anything. Show that same on rank 5+.
OP didn't say he wanted a ranked deck. I don't play ranked that much. He wants a deck that beats hunter. Against Secret Hunter and Midrange Hunter this deck is 100% WR. It has issues with aggro hunter if you don't draw well.
As a Hunter main, the following techs ruin my day:
1) Silence
2) Weapon Removal - nothing sucks MORE than your opponent popping all your secrets...and then oozing your bow
3) Anything that shuffles minions into my deck (as Spellhunter)
The biggest tempo play are Spellstones so any taunts and AoE 3+ are a nightmare. You want to keep them on their toes and keep in mind what secrets they play.
If you want to add me I can use Spell, DR or MR Hunter to help you build a counter.
Not sure why so many people are saying Odd mage beats hunter well, unless you draw early Jaina you are gonna have a bad time especially against DK Rexxar. Not a good counter.

Hi guys. I was wondering if anyone had some good decks vs hunter.
Its unbelievable but 3/4 i face are hunters and this is no joke they seem to always have rexxar on turn 6... its quite frustrating(personally)
So is there anything out there that wrecks them? Id like to return the frustrating emotional breakdown im going through :p
I play paladin variant decks and some odd warrior, very difficult match ups vs hunter.
Greets !
Odd mage?

I teched a Chief Inspector into my Odd Mage, haven't faced a single hunter since. So...good...I guess?
Unpopular opinion: Rogue is OP
The matching system check your deck, if find this card you never will play vs a deck with secrets.
Best tech ever \o/

Free to try and find a game, dealing cards for sorrow, cards for pain.
This is coming from the same guy that actually said Griftah is broken and Zul'jin is a meme card rofl.
