I was thinking about zoo warlock and why it is called zoo. So i got the idea to make real zoo with it's beasts and everything and i present you real zoo hunter.
If you want midrange version of beast hunter with call of the wilds and stuff you should check this deck out http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/583772-midrange-beast-hunter
What is new? :
This deck utilizes forgotten Snake Trap really really well.
And yes it runs actual Scavenging Hyena . With so many beasts trading for hunter becomes fun (don't get carried away, that's because you will do more damage to face with hyena )
why Scavenging Hyena ? - this card is amazing . it is 2/2 2 drop which can be traded in 1 drops and 2 drops and really good distraction if anything, BUT even if you trade 1 beast while having this on board it becomes best 2 drop in game. it's 2 drop threat which can go huge if unnoticed and forces your opponent into awkward situation, also protects your other minions because opponent will use removals on this card . it synergizes really well with Unleash the Hounds, Snake Trap and Infested Wolf . value is amazing: you trade 1/1 and you get + 2/1 .
Quote from Boldelar's comment " Scavenging Hyena is an important part and sometimes it can be the wincondition. It's a 2/2 for 2 mana with soft taunt with the ability to become a giant beast when combined with unleash, snake trap or infected wolf. Don't play it on turn 2, wait till you have a good board to drop it and buff. Instead, play another 2 mana minion or a secret. "
Main idea is to get ahead early and protect your board with cards like Arcane Shot , Quick Shot, Kill Command and Eaglehorn Bow which can also be used for face damage when needed.
Replacement for Leeroy Jenkins is Reckless Rocketeer
I hope you will enjoy the deck :)
Possible changes : - Houndmaster + Defender of Argus
- Worgen Infiltrator + Tracking
- Worgen Infiltrator + Stonetusk Boar
kiwiinbacon made an awesome video highlighting this deck.
Hmm
I understand the aggression and now 2 tracking makes sense but the anti synergy between Camel and abusive (or evem fiery) is just to strong imo .
I would try jungle partner instead . It's almost guaranteed 4 damage + a target for haundmaster .
Also the uth would be nice . Sometimes even 1 hound can make the difference between victory or defeat . And it buffs the hyena too :) .
i am still experimenting on the deck and i will consider that changes lets see
Desert Kamel is well for Tournaments but not that well for Laddering.
U want to have a free Tunel Trogg ? or flame imp ? me not so for laddering this deck isnt that well in my opinion.
For tournements great or u lucky and only face against controll/cthun decks.
when you play Desert Camel you are usually ahead on the board and you can trade whatever they get and also you can get Injured Kvaldir so pretty good value .if you are against control/midrange decks which don't run 1 drops Desert Camel is real MVP and if they get Sir finley and his battlecry will be denied thats good too.
If you rally like desert camel my opinion is you should run only 2 kvaldir and no other 1 drops to guarantee 4 8 woth of stats and not gamble giving your opponent something better for free .
if i run only 2 1 drop that means i will give up my early game and sometimes camel won't even get any 1 drop .
Hey! This is a nice deck!
I am currently 11-4, and have noticed that Scavenging Hyena feels very underwhelming, as most of the time it is just a 2 mana 2/2. are you having the same issue? Got any idea of what to replace it with?
Hey,
it's a zoo deck so there are many replacements for almost each card, you can replace it with : Dire Wolf Alpha , Knife Juggler , Argent Horserider , Argent Squire. try it and tell me how it worked out
C'mon, King's Elekk is no good in Zoo decks.
Shouldn't he try Flesheating Ghoul if he wants the same effects?
I think you should try adding Dire Wolf Alpha instead of Abusive Sergeant. Tell me what you think.
You are right King's Elekk is worst in that list ( i will edit)
Flesheating Ghoul isn't good too ,it's too slow and we don't have that many minions to trade plus if hyena gets buffed 1 time it equals 2 buffs for Flesheating Ghoul and if hyena gets buffed 2 times it equals 4 buffs for ghoul + 1 health
Abusive Sergeant is too good to be changed as it gives direct 2 attack on a minion and costs 1 so it's really good to make good trades. Dire Wolf Alphahas 1 more health, but 1 more cost and sometimes 1 attack isn't enough to trade minion and you have to trade with 2 minions. Warlock doesn't have that problem because he has man little minions with Forbidden Ritual and he has life tap so he won't run out of cards, but we can't throw cards like that .
