What if I say... there's a deck, that can be fun, interactive, and you won't regret that you lose (sometimes)
What if I say... there's a hunter deck that can be uberreactive and control at the same time.
What if I say.. that U don't have to worry about losing the tempo (and having an empty hand).
Sounds hilarious? Well, your fav deckbuilder (I hope) strikes again. Today U'll see a new hybrid version of Hunter. Deathrattle + secrets, sounds alotta fun, does it? Sure.
As a huge fan of the Windrunners family (I hope that we'll have a trinity someday) I wanted Sylvanas Windrunner be playable in the Alleria's deck. (Sorry Rexxar, me Smart). So, making a deck that can be good enough at the start bypassing all the early threats, that Ur opponent can pressure your face and board was my dream.
Yesterday I was thinking about a fresh way of playing a secret hunter. Totemization of the ladder, way too many Freeze mages, heeladins, druids... U always felt like ur running out of gas playing them? Sitting with an empty hand, topdeck or rekt... Where's my Call of the Wild? Kill Command plz plz... Nah, U dont have to worry about it, coz this deck never runs of steam.
You have draw, you have great opener in three first drops + Cloaked Huntress with a package of secrets. Barnes cant give you a bad card, except The God. And starting with the 6 drop you are unstoppable. Sylvanas Windrunner is the real MVP of this deck. Its unexpected in a hunter list. N'Zoth, the Corruptor, the second card that's waaaaaaaaaaaaay tooooooo underrated in the hunters list. It's not slow now. Why? Cause I dont see any reason to play Call of the Skill now. 10 mana deathrattle army, that makes sense now, not 5 to the face.
And the forggoten, key component of the decklist, Flare Justsaying: mirror matches, pallys and mages (tons of Freeze again), all getting rekt and a draw (like my rhymesaying? HaHAA)
So, lads, give it a try. Gonna hit legend with this list, works extremly great on high ranks. (And with my OTK Tempo mage). See ya here and on my twitch channel
Cheers and GL in laddering.
Hey, would like to see this deck in action so do you mind posting some gameplay?
mulligans?
This is an underrated deck. I've played all the current iterations of face hunter, secret hunter, midrange hunter... I believe this is the best hunter deck on the ladder at the moment.
[card]N'Zoth, the Corruptor[/card] itself has been underwhelming. There are quite a few games where I would have preferred Bloodmage Thalnos for everytime I had drawn N'Zoth, the Corruptor.
- The +1 spell damage has a lot of synergy with your quick shot, snipe, explosive trap, and kill command.
- Much easier to combo if you need a +4 quickshot for board clear or card draw. (N'Zoth, the Corruptor if drawn early is a dead card)
- [card]N'Zoth, the Corruptor[/card] even when played often lead to a pretty underwhelming summon.
- Bloodmage Thalnos is also a better Barnes summon.
The Flare is quite good and I think the deck could actually use 2x. Not sure what could go to replace it.
Have you replaced anything with Bloodmage Thalnos? If yes which card?
I just got Princess Huhuran and I'd love to make her work in this deck. Anything I could replace? Maybe one of the highmanes?
Highmane is one of the most important cards in this deck, you need two. If I were you I would take out an Animal Companion.
Great deck, currently i'm 9/3.
What do you think I can replace best princess huhuroan with?
There's no Princess here
I know there is no princess here I am asking where I can put it :D
- Snake trap
Is Snake Trap necessary? I dusted everything for Control Warrior, like, everything, I could get some dust for the second Secretkeeper, since I only have one, but not for snakes.
Snakes give you xtra tempo. There is no unleash here
So use Unleash the Hounds instead? Or if you must use a secret, just run a second Explosive Trap.
Flare won me two games vs Freeze mage (Jaina corps attack the Standard meta). Secret hunters mirror matches - OP. Keep it... if it wont work, swap
