Rogue pirate is...interesting. Cannon really helps speed up the deck. Is it viable...maaayyybe. It's probably the first deck you really see because most of the cards are in the Classic set. You only need a rare and a common from GvG.
Remember that for all of the mass of 100+ pack openings, 50% of players in games like this spend $0 on the game and most of the payers put in about $20-40 through their entire play life. A very VERY small % of people spend much more than that. Also note that most players aren't good at arena either.
Most players didn't come into GvG with much gold/dust. Most dust savers are probably like me: hoarding dust until viable decks show up so that the dust can go into good use. Thus they don't have much.
The result: probably about 80% of the playerbase has about 3-9 GvG packs.. that's it.
Think about what your first 6 GvG packs looked like. Care to tell me what sort of deck can you make with that?
Given that, what sort of meta change are you really expecting 2 days into the expansion?

Think this works for multiples if you have two of the same minion on the field? It reads like it does.

I've actually never heard that one, so... A little bit yes.

Smash Mouth was never considered a good band. But, I'm with you on Alakazam.
Also, the deck works just fine.

As opposed to responding to it?

I understand criticism for the Hunter class. And I'm fine reading the same argument again and again. It is played a lot, so I get it. But the second someone says "Huntard" I instantly stop taking your words seriously. It just sounds moronic to me. Is this just me?

Vaporize Straight up destroys your entire game if you don't have a non mech out.
Ice Block prolongs it
Flamestrike will wipe almost all mechs before they even come out. Blizzard would probably work also.
Fireball or Polymorph wrecks the head.
Mage will absolutely destroy any deck relying on this or mech swarm.
Just a thought.

Of course you stole that minion/card. Of course you randomly killed that minion. Of course you bombed my three one health minions.
It's usually Arena for me. Most constructed decks try to minimize RNG.

Picked 100.00% of the time in Arena rounds
Used in 86.40% of Priest decks
Probably one of the best cards in the game.

"Used in 1.26% of Hunter decks"
What? How?!?

If this was your 29th Arena draw and you have a ton of beasts... Then it would be great. But I'm thinking Blizzard didn't want something to meld with the current Hunter decks. Can you imagine the outcry?
