I am pretty much lost. Needless to say, I detest DH right now. It had a lot of cool gimmicks and potential, but its ridiculous. The class kills more archtypes and decks that would flourish right now than it creates new ones. (sorry for salt)
I was trying to have fun with Galakrond zoo Warlock. The deck is pretty cool (not that powerful or anything), but zoo always has been a favorite. Nothing like the Darkshire Counselman days or Keleseth healzoo... I played 8 games now against DH and ive lost them all. I had pretty good hands now and then and i am certainly not a bad player. There is just no way out. I feel sad that it has come to that, so its probably back to wild.
All DH cards are insanely overpowered, crazy undercosted, have the cheapest and more efficient draw engines of the game history (put prenerf Miracle rogue into garbage tier), a powerful class demon make the HoFed Ragnaros a crap legendary in comparison and a "condition" so pathetic easy to play around you can say don't exist at all.
The class needed to be massively overnerfed now in a least 11 cards.
Egg Warrior is really good against them, but it is a harder deck to navigate honestly.
I actually played a bit of Tempo Demon Hunter just to see how good it is and it is honestly ridiculous. I played around 30 games at Plat to Diamond level and lost like 5! You just find a way to win as DHs have so much damage potential.
Another good deck is Face Hunter. Hunter was basically the only deck I lost too.
Embiggen all big rush or no target taunts. Rest spells including wrath swipe bees dreams innervate overgrowth and quest. Sitting at diamond 2 right now facing lots of DH.

Anyone got a cure?
Maybe try something like this. The way it works: control the board early on with Board Clears and heals, try to go 2 cards for one most of the time. Turn 6 is where you start putting your big demons on the field and from there it's a breeze. Of course, if they draw like god you can still lose, but for me this works rather great. Hope it helps:
Watch out for Combo though. They will prbly outvalue you, because this is a pure control deck. You can shuffle in a Coilfang Warlord if you want to fight that a little bit. It doesn't have too much draw power but usually control doesn't need so much since you're generally playing re-active vs. aggro. Vs. Midrange/Combo archetypes you need to put your minions out asap and against other control ONLY remove stuff on the board and don't waste cards (because that's the decks strength).
Vs. Aggro Demon Hunter: they deal insane damage directly towards your hero, heal alone will not be strong enough (trust me I tried). You need immediate board impact and Taunts to stop them.
Oh and replace the two Illidari Felblades with two Soul Splits to copy your big Taunt Demons. Can‘t edit it right now on mobile.
If you want to beat DH there is a drastic step you can take. Just don't tell anyone, not even your own mother. You can make a budget face hunter deck and probably win 60% - 65% of the games since you just go face and they die. The common DH decks do have some weaknesses. That is their healing is very limited, being two eye beams if they run that, they don't run taunts, and if they want to remove your minions typically they have to use their face. This makes face hunter quite well suited to beating them. Face hunter will beat most lists. Against the best DH list face hunter is even with them but not everyone runs the best list.
I would just stop playing ranked unless you want to play a meta netdeck designed to beat DH. Playing in casual mode allows you to insta concede against every DH and will match you up against other off meta decks.
Playing ranked seriously has never been fun, but now it's worse than ever. It feels like you're gimping yourself if you don't play DH or hard counters.
On a side note, are people really complaining about demon hunter still lol? The warrior deck absolutely obliterates it, without sacrificing effectiveness in other matchups. Watch ANY pro player stream and they all agree warrior is the strongest deck. And not just because it destroys demon hunter, it’s good against the entire field.
I am actually baffled that I haven’t seen complaints about warmaul challenger. A 3 mana 1/10 with upside is absolutely bonkers. Very few classes can deal with it after being damaged and buffed by rampage. Good luck even further if they copy it because you couldn’t answer a 4/10 on turn 4.
yeah, warrior best vs dh, skiper + armorsmith is game over for DH or Face hunter. and warmaul challenger is very op. consider it 3 drop worst case you can trade it into normal 3-drop with 3/4 or 4/3 stats hell it even ingnore taunt

Hi everyone,

One of the best deck against DH is Warrior egg, because it makes a lot of shields and can kill all the board of the DH easily.
I've had a lot of success with this deck against them (73% win rate): https://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/1349050-crusher-silent-priest
Holy Nova is really effective against them, and it gives you a chance to outtempo them in the turn 4-7 range.

You can't, just can't.

Against DH, you need a lot of armor or a lot of heal. So : warrior or priest are the best class to counter them.

Face hunter if you want to win (fast), warrior if you want to actually play the game
Answer to retarted dh is retarded res priest .

Tickatus isn't fun or interactive
Warrior is your go too class. They sweep the floor with DH.
Priest...never lost to DH with priest deck
As many have said, warrior and priest.
