okay fine, fine, I'll give Control Hunter a shot again
Why? This card is crap. Why would you EVER use it instead of Highmane or DK?
'cuz summoning a 5/5 devilsaur, a big random beast from your deck, a big random beast that's died or arguably 5 1/1's is better than summoning 2 2/2s.
The only thing the deck needs now is a stronger early game or for the meta to slow down quite a bit.
Checked out the deck you posted. Seems like a fun one, but I doubt it´ll work.
With this: "The only thing the deck needs now is a stronger early game or for the meta to slow down quite a bit."
You named 2 reasons why this wont work. Hunters early game is so important, because there is no armor gain oder heal in hunter except the DK. Kill Command is useless because there is almost no beast in the deck.
The egg makes no sense as well, because you cant get rid of it. Yes, you can activate its deathrattle, but until then and after that it just sits on the board doing nothing. You payed 4 mana and two cards for a 5/5.
Highmane is better in all regards because of stats, the deathrattle and you can play it on turn 6, while Sleeping Oozeling sits in your hand until finally a beast died (if you got the Abominable Bowman deathrattle).
Yeah like I said in an earlier post at best it's a WIP. I think I might just run 1 Devilsaur Egg. I also thought about running Keleseth and Valanar (the deck has no 4 drops and the 2 drops are iffy at best) but I think for that the deck needs stronger/better 1 and 3 drops.
Do we know how the chance of pulling things works with this? If I have 2 Devilsaur eggs is there a higher chance Ooze gets it's deathrattle or is it the same?
I think this has very nice synergy with the new cards, Silver Vanguard and Kathrena Winterwisp. They both have extremely powerful deathrattles that would be fantastic to copy. You can essentially build a "big hunter" deck using these and some nice 8 drops. I've even added Deathwing, Dragonlord and a couple high end dragons for the nice synergy too. I'm looking forward to using all these cards in conjunction with each other. On their own, they're fairly lackluster but they all combine together well.
So lets say you have this and Katerina in your deck with King Krush and Charged devilsaurs. You drop this turn 6 and it copies Katerinas DR. On turn 7 you play dead(or just ram it into something) your Oozeling to get a big charging beast...hit face, and then Cube your big charging beast and then Play Dead your Cube for 2 more charging beasts. 20-30 face damage on turn 7............ Easy peezy :D

The problem is hunter class don't have a hero power helping with the board, good cheap removals to deal with early agression or healing.

Don't will work, it is sad.
You can always throw in a bunch of neutral taunts and 4-prince to help curb the early aggression. Hero power isn't everything. Pirate warrior was proof of this. I'm not saying this will be some broken deck, just that this is likely the best way for this card to see value.
This card is overpriced. Playing highmane into sap vs rogue is already a game over, and nobody cares how powerful is deathrattle. I think the proper balance is 4/4 for 5 mana. 6 mana is a lot.
Especialy since it check the remaining deck for deathrattles, so you can draw this after your good deathrattles which is a considerable downside obviously

garbage, wont see play in any deck
The best part about this card is that if (IF) this deck actually starts working, then Weasel Tunneler will actually be a legitimate tech choice!
Counters deathrattle synergy, counters pulling a random beast, counters beast resurrection.
And it doesn't even have to be played on curve! Just before T6. Brilliant.
Anger is the punishment we give ourselves for someone else's mistake.
this is gonna be a pretty interesting card in my opinion.

Nothing. In the deck Carnivorous Cube doesn't even have a deathrattle really.
I don't think running this AND Carnivorous Cube is a good idea anyway. Much more of a one or the other situation.
