I took this deck for a spin this morning at Diamond 10 and couldn't get any traction - ended up going 1W 7L or something... just got stomped by Paladins and Druids over and over.
Decided to swap out 1x Beaming Sidekick & 1x Umberwing for 2x Consume Magic and I've since gone 13W 1L with the adjusted deck, with one silly mistake against a Rogue.
Haven't really felt attracted to the DH class since it launched, but this deck is changing my mind. Thank you!
EDIT: Managed to hit legend 2 days later.
Some misc stats...
Games from Diamond 10 to Legend: 62

I didn't face any other Demon Hunters along the way.
Paladin, Druid & Priest were difficult matchups, and I was surprised when looking back at the stats. I fought a lot of tough games where I thought I was gonna lose for sure, but so many times I managed to claw back the win with a well placed Consume Magic + Marrowslicer + discounted Glaivebound Adept x2 combo. There were a few times that I considered removing the 2nd Skull of Gul'dan from my deck because it kept getting in the way of lethals, but ultimately I left it there because drawing it before I was able to force it with Lorekeeper Polkelt usually resulted in a loss, or a very uncomfortable transition into the combo.
The deck felt good because I didn't rely on the combo for my only win condition. The early game pressure you can apply to your opponents often leaves them vulnerable to a quick Marrowslicer + Twin Slice x2 (or x4) kill at around turn 6.
Stealth / Aggro Rogue felt impossible to beat. So many times I was one game away from Legend before facing a Rogue. This is a very difficult matchup and the only times I won were when they didn't draw Secret Passage.
Control / Big Warrior also felt impossible to beat. Fortunately I only faced one of them.
Really happy I stumbled upon this deck - it was good fun, and I learned a lot about the class along the way.
