Please helpz. I really want to play Midrange Hunter instead of Cancer Hunter all the time and I am missing these core cards in the second wing of Naxx (still saving up). I am currently using 2 leper gnomes for the Webspinners and Maexxna for Loatheb. Any suggestions for replacement ideas much appreciated.
What other cards do you have? Maexxna is not a good replacement for Loatheb . She can kill minions (even very big ones), but she is more expensive and cannot deal high face damage. I would suggest Stranglethorn Tiger as a replacement for Loatheb instead of Maexxna. Even a Boulderfist Ogre is better.
Do you think Knife jugglers are Ok replacement for Mad Scientist. Just as an extra 2 drop that helps.
Knife juggler should not be a replacement for Mad Scientist, but an additional two drop. I personally see them as a staple in Midrange Hunter. But since you don't have the Scientists, Knife Juggler is definitly a worthy part in a Midrange Hunter deck.
It's difficult to play a hunter or a mage deck without scientist. That's means you have to play the secrets manually, that's means sometimes you should keep them in your starting hand, which is not a good move.
I already have King's Elekk for Knife Jugglers tho. So for me adding the knife jugglers was purely for a Mad Scientist replacement. Basically In my deck rn: i have Kings elekk and Knife Jugglers.
Leper Gnome for Webspinner - it's already a replacement some more hybridized lists make.
Mad Scientist - Largely irreplaceable in both Midrange and Facehunter so I'm not really sure where you'd go with this. I'd likely say either Knife Juggler and push as more of a hybrid along with the above Leper Gnome, King's Elekk if your list isn't already running 2x, or maybe even Loot Hoarder a 2 attack 2 drop that semi-cantrips (though obviously this is much worse than Scientist).
Loatheb I don't think is even great in this deck. Try Tundra Rhino - I run 2x in my list and it makes turn 6 Savannah Highmane nuts as you get to charge a 6/5 and even if you trade it into something, you then also get 2x 2/2 charge hyennas. Alternatively, try Stranglethorn Tiger.

The Leper Gnomes are imho fine though.
Loatheb ---> Sylvanas Windrunner
Mad Scientist ---> not really
Webspinner -----> well you could take any 1 drop minion, but will never get it's deathtrattle , maybe Clockwork Gnome

Mad scientist is irreplaceable
Webspinner. find a beast of 1 mana
Loatheb: any 5 mana minion, but you will not find a better one than Loatheb or Sludge Belcher
The short answers I would give are:
Leper Gnome for Webspinner - it's already a replacement some more hybridized lists make.
Mad Scientist - Largely irreplaceable in both Midrange and Facehunter so I'm not really sure where you'd go with this.
