Hearthpwn

Wanted to post the exact same thing. Unbelieveble they feed us bullcrap about class identity today, while they didnt care about class identity when they destroyed wild groth, nourish and innervate

For me its literlly the costs.

I bought some packs and adventures back in the day. When the rotation system staryed, and when blizzard killed decks with strategic nerfs that would render whole decks useless, i figured i needed to pay more and more money, or play daily to be able to keep making tier 1 decks. 

Nah, shaman was top tier 1 a few times in the last 2 year. It will be again somewhere in the future, thats how it is and always will be.

This forums are getting pretty funny. Last week I learned that i can't play combo decks w/ low winrates, i cant play aggro smorck, i can play control decks with games that last 10 minutes or more, i cant play hunter, cant play otk and cant play decks that arent interactive with my opponent.

I guess i should quit hearthstone

Fun deck, but the version without liam is better. I played about 20 matches (on legend rank) with liam, and maybe played 1 or 2 semi usefull legendarys. The problem is that most marches end before turn 10. If you play liam at 5, you might draw one or two random legendarys (which often suck) before the game will end. Its just not really impactfull.

Spellhunter is a super strong deck, but relies heavy om 6-10 cards that are strong, the rest are filler cards to survive and secrets. Without 2x tracking youre winrate will defenetly go down a few percent.

Anecdotally, I've not found that to be the case for me. The only games I've usually won when using Tracking re ones I was already in good shape to win. And I've never won by finding the card I've needed from it. 
Conversely, having removed it and replacing it with and Eaglehorn bow, I have noticed a substantial increase in wins where I would previously have struggled thanks to the bow finding me that extra damage for lethal a lot of times. 

As said, this is anecdotal and your results may vary etc etc. But for now I am going to try continuing with the bow for a bit and see what happens. The only time I lost hard recently was against another hunter who got 2 secrets and 2 spellstones in his mulligan. I couldn't really keep up the damage and I dont think a Tracking would have helped much there! :-P

 So, youve never had tracking in your starting hand and found a spellstone?
You have never played tracking on turn 7 and found a to my side?
You have never played tracking to find a removal like hunters mark, kill command or flanking strike?
Never the explosive trap you needed to survive against odd pally?
You never realised the tracking you played early game that deleted 2 useless cards made you win in the end because you drew better cards now?
Never ever needed something to play and found an animal companion?
Never a turn 8 tracking into Rokdhelar?

Are you sure youre playing spellhunter ;')?

^^this.

Maybe a fun way to understand it even better. Check this:

Ticking abomination has a crazy played winrate, because its only played at the end of the game to secure the victory. The drawn winrate is waaaaay lower. Mechathun has the worst played winrate because its not meant to be played, the drawn winrate is way higher offcourse.

It really depends on the card (is it a comeback card, a combo piece, a value card, etc...) and on the deck (are you aggro, midrange, control, OTK?). Good luck on your HS endeavours!

Maybe surprising to a lot of people. Take a guess what is the WORST preforming card in secret hunter... Yeah, its Deathstalker Rexxar. If you look at played winrate you see spellhunter has a few powerhouses. Spellstone, Zuljin, Rhokdelar, to my side, kill command and animal companion.

These 6 cards make hunter strong. The deathstalker performs worst in mulligan wr, drawn wr and played wr! This is also why tracking is very good. We rather just have the 6 strong cards, but  when we dont have them, we get an extra chance through tracking. Before you say tracking has a mediocre  played wr, thats mostly because you always play tracking when youre losing, looking for an answer, but you won't play tracking if your winning and can perfectly use your mana every turn.

Dont dust non duplicatw cards if you are f2p, unless they are really crappy legendaries youre never going to use. If you play 1 month for fun, doing your dailies, maybe some arena if you can average around 4-5 wins, you will have enough dust to craft a zoolock deck or maybe even odd rogue if you allready have baku.

I would really advise you not to dust your priest epics and legends. Control priest is a deck that can easy get you to rank 5, also, priest might become tier 1 again in a few months. If you are going to dust priest cards, i would suggest only dusting the cards from last year, that will rotate out.

Never understand this topics, in seasons like this one its easiest to get to legend, because you just play a deck that counters hunter. Is it that hard to counter hunter for you? Priest, warrior and mage give you a 70% easy against most hunter variants. Git gud.

Both comments are from the same user, so they don't count.

Here's two comments with the same text

who wants consistency when you can have fun?!

"Sick em', boy– Wait, not me!"

Ever wanted to play a quest from another class? Here is the card. It basically lets you discover a quest and lower its conditions. Awaken the Makers would need you to summon 3 deathrattle minions for instance. Because it lets you discover a quest it is not so easy to build an entire deck around it so it would more be a meme card/deck. And yes that is Harrison Jones but with actual Indiana Jones art, lol.
