You could probably take out both the On the Hunt’s for that cheesy barnes/yshaarj combo. I’m honestly not a fan but it is undeniably strong when it works.

I hear you there, LaserWolf. I think you’re right that there are some factors that likely contribute to the winrate that doesn’t reflect on the usefulness of the card. Maybe with the surge of Murlocadins and disappearance of Corridor Creeper he is better now than the previous meta. Like everything, it loses to Cubelock either way T.T

Thanks for the compliments guys. I used hsreplay.net to find the statistics I’m talking about. They are the creators of the Hearthstone Deck Tracker app I strongly recommend as well. I looked at quite a few variations and Deathstalker Rexxar seemed to have poor percentages in all of the ones I saw.

I was looking at statistics for this deck (and several variations of it) and to my surprise, Deathstalker Rexxar is one of, if not, the worst performing card in spell hunter (45% win rate when played, craft regret is strong). Along with Hunter’s Mark, and Deadly Shot (literally a hail mary most of the time). Just from personal experience, the hunter’s hero power is often necessary to apply pressure to the opponent and close out games. Based on this I actually recommend abstaining from Deathstalker Rexxar and having no more than one of each of the other cards mentioned. On the Hunt, while not very exciting, is surprisingly useful.

My decklist is strongly influenced by Torlk’s rank 2 spell hunter list, which notably also excludes Deathstalker Rexxar. If you look at his list I’d like to mention that Unleash the Hounds also seems to perform poorly in this archetype.

Here is my current deck: Feel free to make any changes based on your meta.
