How does it get destroyed by midrange hunter? I want to know because I play midrange hunter. Seems to me the deck is amazing in this matchup, polys for highmanes, leper gnomes and other one drops smash face while you wait for turn 3 to MAYBE play animal companion or bow if you are lucky. Then come the later turns and they just fireball you in the face.
Aggro mage doesn't play polymorph, and they play lots of cheap creatures, so very vulnerable to unleash the hounds and/or explosive trap. They usually end up wasting their fireballs on my bigger creatures, especially anything buffed by houndmaster.
So looks like I ended the season at rank 3, gonna try for legend next season.
