If your opponent is ne, start your base as usual, except send a Wisp to make a AoW right in his base as soon as the game starts.
You can get AoW done by time theyr hero gets out, now, send wisp's to heal the aow, and keep building hunts and get your hero (DH perfeable)
Makin a moonwell in his base also helps to heal wisp's and hero

Keep him occupied until you roll the hunts in.. works quite well :]
