Midrange Hunter is a Hunter deck type that looks to take early control of the board and snowball its lead in the later turns.

Past the early game, the deck tries to solidify its board with removal cards such as LegacyKill Command, LegacyEaglehorn Bow, and sometimes LegacyDeadly Shot. The deck has various ways to trade up low-value minions, such as with LegacyHoundmaster and The WitchwoodDire Frenzy, allowing it to continue building its board while efficiently dealing with threats and maintaining control. In Rastakhan's Rumble, Rastakhan's RumbleMaster's Call was added, allowing for an all-beast Midrange Hunter to be viable and powerful. Rastakhan's RumbleZul'jin gives the deck a major value play alongside Rise of ShadowsUnleash the Beast and other spells.

This deck gains a lot of power in Wild, with Kobolds & CatacombsLesser Emerald Spellstone creating a significant power play, Kobolds & CatacombsFlanking Strike and Kobolds & CatacombsWandering Monster being highly efficient cards, Mean Streets of GadgetzanAlleycat and Kobolds & CatacombsDire Mole being strong 1 mana minions that combine with Journey to Un'GoroCrackling Razormaw, and Knights of the Frozen ThroneDeathstalker Rexxar providing late game sustain through Build-a-Beast,.
