•Bad matchups: It’s going to struggle occasionally against some forms of aggro such as ELEMNTALIS resource denial BAD URU and MAGES.. Control mage is particularly Bad. Will also get out valued by ROGUE if the game goes late and they get their engines online.

•Good matchups: Quite a few. Its not always as much about what hero your facing but often the cards they choose. But I think this deck has a pretty nice match up against almost all other hunters, against weapon heroes, and most priests.

It typically operates in a mid range value play style steadily climbing up the curve and playing one card a turn. You want to keep the board contested and hopefully under your control at all time as it lacks a way back in you fall behind too far.

•Playing first 🔑 Cards: 1)VIGILANT WISP your most important card playing first is Vigilant wisp this is what let’s you dictate the tempo. It will ensure you don’t miss an ally drop on curve, or can just be used as a way to draw cards so you can comfortably sacrifice. Manage your Shadow energy carefully though and plan ahead for threats.

2) ARMORED PACKBEAST if you missed your two drop this is usually your best play on 3, otherwise you have options.

3) HUNTERS GAMBIT. Not much to explain. In most matchups you always feel better if you have one of these in your hand. This is draw but it’s also removal, so use it wisely

4) THUNDERSTRIKE CONSTRUCT this is your bread and butter power play that’s going to win you a lot of games.

5) TAINTED ORACLE, WRAITH OF THE FOREST, FORTIFIED WISP. These are all good and important cards but they are expensive and abundant so you are not going to get to drop a bunch of them generally.

6) THE LAST HARVEST, KION. Both terrific cards but because of where they are at on the curve you can’t really afford to prioritize them early in a game.

7) SOUL SEEKER, VISKA, NATHANIA


Playing second 🔑 cards: Basically it’s the same but with more emphasis on defensive cards
1)Vigilant wisp. 2). Poison arrow. 3) Hunters gambit. 4) Armored packbeast. 5) Soul seeker, WOTF, Thunderstrike construct, Fortified Wisp, Layarian Seductress. 6) Viska, Retreat.
