AKA: *THE* budget deck.

[@huyphan7825]

The best part is that it's a fun deck to play as well!

[@facundomoralesdiorio3802]

The deck doesn't give you room to do much apart from curving out every turn...

[@onam3000]

You forgot to mention one thing: You shouldn't keep Grandmother(and rat pack) vs Priest

[@sheldonshin9167]

Onam how tf will u know ur playing against a priest?

[@relaxingpenguin6027]

Ninjafamily He meant you shouldn't keep it in your starting hand.

[@blackseac]

Ninjafamily idiot

[@Keifyn827]

Ninjafamily How tf are you this stupid?

[@Tibovl]

We're hitting levels of autism that shouldn't even be possible

[@warptens5652]

12:51 placement. shouldn't adapt the middle alley cat: 1) having weaker minions in the middle plays around some removal like swashburglar -> griveous bite for example 2) generally, dire wolf works better with weak minions in the middle 3) you can get the deathrattle adapt, and the plant that spawn can screw up dire wold buffs if they're in the middle

[@AkaMigeru]

rodriguez aymeric Yeah, but if the rogue zaps the summoned cat, you get a 1 mana 1/1 in your hand. if he zaps the original cat, you get two 1/1 with 1 mana. Adapting it over the summoned cat makes the rogue to choose if he wants two 1/1 plants or another round of two 1/1 beasts.

[@carleliasbaltzersen7187]

THE MADMAN!

[@rileymoogoo]

what's the origin of that?

[@danielchrismer1094]

I think it's a little more than that. He seems to call his opponent a "madman" when they've made an extremely high-risk, high-reward type of play.

[@joaoarthur6487]

+Daniel Chrismer also when they are using a memeworthy tactic in theirdeck

[@tomye1638]

00:02 - 00:05 The opening is completely wrong. ALWAYS HUFFER.

[@Tibovl]

Yeeee

[@Reach1335]

The only constant to Animal Companion is that you'll never get Leokk when it's actually useful but your opponent will. Always Huffer is a myth.

[@renvhoek]

Well put together video - explaining how and why your putting together this particular deck, showing deck building basic techniques, then some good example games with plenty of good exposition.

[@alvarozarate9615]

I have an almost identical list to this, but I found great success running timberwolves instead of tundra rhino and firefly as a core identity to the deck and playing with the token aspect of it, using tech cards like deadly shot and explosive trap. It's played like a regular face hunter deck where your finisher tends to be tolvir warden to lock in an unleash the hounds + double timberwolves combo once the board inevitably swings in their favor

[@SlackwareNVM]

"Noble Rexxar" KEK

[@daft2114]

You are amazing! Changed my Deck to this one and made 15 to 10 today.. Thank you!!

[@Edzter]

"against a secret mage i play a controll deck" nah you're just trump. Any other hunter would've smorced it even if it's wrong

[@bordeaux1337]

I would argue that mid-range hunter actually leans more towards tempo decks nowadays. Tempo decks aims to play early threats and then disrupt the opponent from dealing with them. (So basically playing cards that can snowball or "win more" when having minions on board) This is what the additions of cards like Direwolf, Razormaw and Hyena does.

[@Sasha-lg1ln]

the *MADMAN*! love you trump ❤

[@slingman1074]

thanks very much your teachings helped my climb from rank 20 all the way up to rank 5, cant thank you enough :D

[@PunxsutawneyDave]

There is something profoundly satisfying about watching quest rogue get destroyed.

[@TheLucas1138]

As far as i hate huntards, I have to admit that crushing victory against that cancer rogue was delightful

[@TheTrivek42]

7:11

[@DeeSnuttz]

Jumperino to Trumperino.

[@Val-io2do]

"Noble Rexxar" Lmao

[@kinehYT]

rat pack has one weakness over infested wolf, potion of madness, i guess that's the reason for picking a wold over a rat

[@NoeLPZC]

Also gives you more 4-drops so you can curve a bit better without emptying your hand.

[@Jimey28]

He should've mentioned that scavenging hyena is a keep in mulligan with a beast 1-drop

[@tylerfox933]

Thanks for the lesson! I'm trying to rank up as a midrange hunter!

[@kale8133]

At 11:02, there could have been lethal is the spell was mana bind, which was sometimes run, or spellbender with the combination of huffer or leokk. But, that was very off meta at the time, so I wouldn't think of it either

[@pedrolima2221]

"Thats how you use the Noble Rexxar to defeat those scumbags Rogues..." never thought i would live to see Hunter class called noble

[@ShowHero]

Perhaps I'm a bit weird but I run a Gladiator's Longbow in my deck. Yes, it's a high cost card but the 5 damage immunity gives you a solid chance to take out a big minion late game and preserve your health. It's also a good way to get that last bit of damage to finish off your opponent.

[@superkill6267]

ShowHero but the game usually ends before turn 7

[@topical746]

ShowHero i was until i realized how rarely i win because of the bow and it can be devastating if its in your starting hand

[@ShowHero]

True... I've had some success with it though and it's amazing if you get it exactly when you need it. Though I hear the problems that come with running such a card.

[@roslolian11]

thanks for this trump, as a control-oriented player I have a hard time playing aggressive decks, very few people teach how to play hunter because it's supposed to be "brain dead" but I find that aggro decks aren't really that easy or obv to play since you need to balance board control with face, and aggro decks dont have comeback mechanics like control decks do. In contrast control decks have 1 very specific game plan and you just need to react and counter what your opponents are doing unlike in aggro where you are always the proactive one

[@phuuc8075]

If you say tell the people from 2 years ago that hunter is now a noble deck and rogue is a scumbag deck you gonna get laughed at... how did we come to this...

[@TheMiningProbe]

this video is really helpful thank you trump/jens

[@Zwijger]

These deckteaching videos are so great, some of my favourite hearthstone content on youtube right now, I'm only waiting for him to come with a viable warlock deck though (if one even exists atm).

[@Woodshadow]

I don't usually like Rat pack but with the dire wolf alphas it gets an extra chance at a buff versus Infested Wolf.

[@jodyrappin]

I love nesting roc. I was hoping it would see play.

[@BrknSoul]

Jens: Could you add the import strings in the comments for the decks?

[@conquest4211]

Just like to say the editing is on point

[@gudebro2000]

Hi, jens!!!

[@freezerinokripperino4712]

10:25 Did he just check for vape for CUTE CAT instead of UGLY CAT?

[@alfredwinchesterjr]

14:12 Did Fan of knives: Deal 1 damage to all enemy minions, rotate out when I wasn't looking?

[@kuro13wolf]

Quest Rogue usually doesn't have enough room to run Fan of Knives.

[@loganhale3244]

"The great thing about firefly is that you can play it as a 2 drop." //In the deck that needs to curve out// So, logically, we're going to cut one for jeweled macaw because we need VALUE.

[@dotValkyrie]

I find Firefly really awkward because it's not a card that gives beast synergy with Crackling Razormaw which is basically probably your best turn 2 play so it really ruins the curve sometimes, for that reason I decided to cut it out completely from my deck and my Midrange looks something like Fenom's Midrange Hunter as shown in the video.

[@loganhale3244]

CrackedDoodle To each their own, I really like it and though I won't mulligan away Razormaw if I have firefly in my opening hand, I try to pair it with grandma or dire wolf. I often use firefly as a 2 drop instead of playing it on 1, to help curve out. Just the versatility and curve filler is what appeals to me.

[@demon3203]

Crackling is super strong with its effect, but playing it on turn 2 if its your only one is more important then the effect MOST of the time. Then firefly keeps putting things in your hand/makes it harder for someone to make you start top decking. So firefly to me seems like a very solid pick if you ask me.

[@hypetrained]

Adam R jeweled macaw you mean? firefly reload isnt as strong. the tempo is whats important

[@demon3203]

You can use the firefly to get tempo and yes i was talking about macaw.

[@willfreedo]

10:25 That "cats vs. dogs" segregation :c

[@tozaisusovac6842]

Next Secret Mage Keep up the good work

[@frickckYTwhatswrongwmyusername]

First match: traded the Razormaw when you should have traded with the other 3/2. Second match: adapted the wrong cat, Tobby Cat would've been better because of the positioning.

[@skylama6173]

wait, so against aggressive decks like pirate warrior, aggressive mage and mirror match do i control or attack

[@joeys4289]

Top notch editing

[@lip7985]

best one yet

[@crushingexistentialism]

I got prep from mimic pod caverns into prep unleashed today

[@thedinnerbox5174]

i used to run my flex card as dinomancy, it really helped me with control matches but i cut it because it wasn't the greatest.

[@andreasiyer1402]

Thanks trump!

[@viktorwidman2626]

Thats a LOT of different versions of midrange hunter.... btw nice vid

[@neelzen9975]

whats a good replacement for grandmother from craftable cards?

[@skipperinotrumperino7531]

7:12

[@andrei281193]

Made the deck last night with a few changes, still trying to learn it but I swear I can't get past rank 18.

[@Sgttv]

What about Leeroy Jenkins in this Deck, Is it a viable option? Maybe it get´s better when teching in 2 dr. 3s

[@realthoo]

best budget deck so far. reached last season rank 6 with it, didnt play much though... only reall bad matchup is taunt warrior.. impossible to win

[@ericm1839]

any consideration to terrorscale stalker? when it hits on turn 3 with a kindly grandmother on turn 2, you're playing a 3 mana 3/3 summon a 3/2. if you can hit highmane with it it's a 3 mana 3/3 summon 2 2/2s, both of which are insane (in case it goes to turn 9, just play that for massive tempo, or on turn 6 with a rat pack if you dont draw the highmane to pull similar value that is slightly weaker to AOE. might just be a one-of, but certainly fun to try out.

[@Gabi-dt7jn]

what about swamp king dred? it's not a ridiculous card like the other ones, but it's a 7 mana 9/9 with a nice effect. there's no 7 drop so I chose the dred. he can be the final nail in the coffin.

[@grepolianmagic7686]

Not that good

[@charpi1472]

@trump do a new miracle rouge guide please as it's mid game strategies seem to have changed with Sherazin being almost it's only mid game

[@hs3327]

The trades at 14:02 should be explained more since 3/2 not going face is kinda counter intuitive and you open yourself up to fan when your very favored already.

[@rodrigogonzalez6219]

Hao Sun that's game knowledge. Quest Rogues don't run Fan. You might get wrecked once against an opponent who uses it as a Tech, but on the long run it's simply not worth to play around the card. Don't do it.

[@NoeLPZC]

Quest Rogue's don't run fan of knives so your 1-health guys are safe(ish). They DO run a lot of bounce effects though (shadowstep, brewmaster, etc.). Clearing their minions makes their bounce cards useless, denies getting more cards from Swashburglar/Novice Engineer, and makes it harder for them to complete the quest.

[@ATAGChozo]

Tempo Storm says this deck is tier 3 but it's actually my favorite deck in the meta

[@superkill6267]

ATAG Chozo I like it because it beats up quest rogue

[@jamiedixon98]

I hate playing Kindly Grandmother against Priest, because of Potion of Madness.

[@NoeLPZC]

Play it when your board is empty so they have nothing to trade into (and then trade it into their guys or buff it out of range the next turn).

[@mikejames3608]

with which card can i replace kindly grandmother?Don't have enough gold for 3 adventures it would take me months to collect them

[@Valsin]

*THE MADMAN*

[@TheNewestTubeGuy]

*SHUT UP SAYING HIS INTRO ISN'T FUNNY*

[@rileyagricola1530]

Why didn't the Rogue quest go to 1/4 when playing the two Stonetusk boars? They have the same name.

[@christunnicliffe]

Freddie Agricola he was already at 2/4 after playing Swashbuckler's

[@Garytheblastoise]

thoughts on vicious fledgeling?

[@daemonpr22]

Is that bad call of the wild in mid hunter? I am playing on rank 2 with one of them and this card can be decisive in some match-ups

[@marcusmartin8959]

thoughts on using swamp King dred?

[@Lustblood89]

can u you do more teachings?? plz!!!

[@Zeridium]

GWENT GWENT GWENT GWENT GWENT GWENTY CARDS BABAAAAY

[@GlawiousAldredMarci]

I tried same with quest rouge than she play the fan of knives and end the game... not really working actually....

[@fatlipthompsonisbad9428]

In the thumbnail and outro.. white shape on Trumps glasses

[@Begeru]

It doesn't seem too weird to me to run Volcanic Potion and Ice Block in a Secret Mage deck.

[@stefanandyjapan7293]

Why does every single one of those run eaglehorn bow but doesnt run secrets

[@flomannscho6472]

I play MidrangeHunter as well, but i brought Barnes in my Deck, because of Highmane, Grandmother, Infested Wolf, etc... Do you think thats worth?

[@amriiheb]

wait he left tsm ? and joined tempo storm ? since when ?

[@shrektemgood9407]

thanks for teaching me trump. now imma go watch hentai

[@Kjbt70]

16:25 Huffer bad? SMOrc Huffer go face SMOrc Huffer good

[@mojointhedojo938]

Irun swamp king dred because it curves out wel with a tundra rhino and savanah highmane... and i dont have kindly grandmother...

[@juanluisposada3458]

NEW OUTRO?!?!?!

[@julianchen5351]

Hey Trump, I'm new to hearthstone but why no Timber Wolf?

[@nandoPluister]

A what is the background song by the second match?

[@longsleevepants78]

need a miracle rogue vid

[@flic1100]

what is the music at 16:40 ?

[@averagecommander]

Cool!

[@mattmatician]

music at the end?

[@justthattaco531]

My friends and I argue a lot about dinomancy. I believe that dinomancy is bad because it slows tempo, requires you to have a board, and cannot chip away the remaining health of your opponent, just like when taunt warrior has a huge wall in front of you that your minions just cannot pass even with the plus two plus two My friends believe that dinomancy is awesome as it gives so much value through pure stats and value trades, and it creates a lot more pressure I want to hear you guy's opinion BTW I probably spelled dinomancy wrong but I am too lazy to spell check

[@demon3203]

Personally, if you run a deck like trumps with jeweled macaws and fireflys then you probably don't need it. If you drop fire flys for beats or jeweled mccaw, because you think its bad then i would run dinomancy for your hand will run empty much more easily.

[@kinehYT]

can someone explain to me, why call of the wild isn't used? Is it to slow?

[@HUKSAV]

9 instead of 8/

[@yzyszn3774]

in my case i was stuck in rank 12 eu and i just couldnt get out. i won 1 then lost 1 every time.

[@1fgchamp]

Dinomancy hunter is superior and more fun at climbing to legend

[@autumneagle]

id always keep a pair of crackling razormaws

[@itasteblood73]

Finally spent my dust on this deck and it's a lot of fun. My question is what could I replace kindly grandmother with? I don't have the Kara expansion so I threw in 2 Ravasaur Runts instead since I'm pretty clueless. Any ideas on something better?

[@paranoweed4416]

thell me i dont have this damn kindly whats the best choice now ?

[@Robert399]

Why firefly?

[@anonofyesterday4650]

Good one- AND twodrop and counters Mirror Entity.

[@Robert399]

+Filip Tryhuk Well it's a meh 1-drop and a bad 2-drop. Obviously it's useful if you're playing elementals but it has no synergy in this deck. I don't know why you'd choose it over Alley Cat, Jewelled Macaw or Fiery Bat. Mirror Entity's hardly played and even then any 1-drop counters it.

[@josiahnelson8101]

For the Direwolf. Obviously Alley cat is the better version of firefly, but firefly is still better than fiery bat and jewelled macaw because it doesn't die to pings. It's also better than jewelled macaw because it's guaranteed that the second minion you get from it will be a 1 drop to apply early pressure along with the dire wolfs. Play the deck a bit, there is a reason 4 out of 5 of the players that took a midrange hunter list to the tournament ran it as a two of.

[@Robert399]

+Josiah Nelson Fair enough.

[@DuncanEvers]

How important is hungry crab in lower ranks? Kinda dont want to spend 400/800 dust on them. What do i replace them with?

[@superkill6267]

Duncan Evers depends on how many Paladins you are facing

[@original89gamer]

So I can't use grandmother it's not showing up in crafting for standard or wild. so what do u use instead

[@user-dh8wz2lr5d]

Grandmother is apart of the Return to Kaza set, so unless you buy the expansion it will remain unavailable. I recommend you pick up revasaur runt instead, its a 2 drop and synergies well with alley cat

[@original89gamer]

Ooo ty I'll be pve'ing then

[@RanDom-mb1xp]

Midrange Hunner

[@numbskull4899]

nice deck in my opinion

[@justsomeguy3775]

Opinions on Terrorscale stalker in this deck? Turn 2 grandmother, Turn 3 value

[@superkill6267]

Just Some Guy this deck doesn't really need the value, it also lowers the chance of having a good opening hand

[@HUKSAV]

3/3/3 without any good abilty. Plus u already have alot of 3 drops.

[@ninez0293]

Why play flame elemental when u can replace them with other beats idk why they use it can someone explain

[@chris9874]

Jacob StimWard it provides more value than other 1 mana beasts.

[@ATLAS-SKYLAR]

this might be a dumb question to ask, but what happened in Un'goro that made midrange hunter a lot better?

[@RockyRoadPie]

Honestly, the best additions to midrange hunter were Fire fly and Crackling Razormaw which allowed hunter to reliably curve out a strong 1, 2, and occasionally 3 drop.

[@berniemargolis4288]

Crackling Razormaw makes your early drops sticky, so your opponent has a much harder time clearing your board in the early game. Jeweled Macaw and Fire Fly effectively draw you a minion, so when you curve out perfectly you're not out of minions to play by turn five. Prior to Un'goro, Hunter was always behind until they could play their Call of the Wild. It's much harder to do repeatable damage (or any damage at all) with your minions when you're constantly behind on the board.

[@shadowflame141]

7:13 skipperino trumperino

[@theblackmachismo]

I've got King krush and Swamp king dred in packs bought with gold, any suggestions on a good deck to help my climb to

[@lrdkay3583]

Play Bomb Warrior

[@Xperteeze]

I just started playing and don't have Grandmother and Rat Packs, what's the best replacement, in your opinion? btw, what do you think of Raptor Hatchling? Love your videos dude, started playing 2 weeks ago, whatch all your videos and was really hoping for a mid range hunter video, since I had just made a deck based on Toast's!

[@fatewinder]

Eduardo Matos search on KZbin for "Disguised Toast f2p Hunter" it's a very cheap version of the deck which He reached Legend with
