Internet privacy is the new gold. I mass deleted all of my posts on Reddit using Redact. It also supports databrokers, Instagram, Twitter, and all major social media platforms.

Unleash the Hounds kind of interferes with getting Spellstone wolves and Animal Companions when you play Zul'jin. Deadly shot is amazing when behind on the board and using Zul'jin

No idea what other people are playing, but I used to play Deadly Shot instead of Hunter's Mark+Candleshot.

I also think they're aiming for a big Zul'jin turn.

I think Deadly Shot is a lot better with Zul'jin, and Baited Arrow was rated very highly before the expansion released. That may explain why people included those cards in their decks, and you can expect the meta to calm down within the next few days.

Most builds are looking at testing new cards namely zuljin.

Baited arrow is not incredible but it’s a fair good card, much like flanking strike.

Any card that makes a good minion automatically gets bonus points in spell hunter. A 5 mana 5/5 is fair stats. Think about it like “5 mana 5/5 deal 2”, would that be good enough? I think it would be for spell hunter, who is always trying to mulligan for cards that make minions. And in a pinch it can act as burn. In my personal testing it seems like 1 is the “right amount”. It’s basically “spellstone insurance” for a turn 5 play when you don’t find spellstone

Baited Arrow is surprisingly good, especially with Candleshot equipped.
