I have been trying out a home-brew thief rogue deck, but I could only get to diamond 3. Has anymore been having success with rogue post-nerf and what are you using?
The new Sonya deck is a top tier deck ATM. Look around and you will find the list. It pops off around turn 6 latest 7 for the otk.
It’s only the Sonya deck if you’re confident you know what you’re doing. It’s a hard deck to pilot. Other than that rogue is dead. You may try to find an excavate rogue list and have some success if you make the right list, but don’t expect your win rate to be anything higher than ≈50%.
Edit: a lil tip for making an excavate rogue that can win some games: cut zilliax. I personally like to run x2 Watcher of the Sun for healing, board clears and Velarok activation.
Nah man, go greed with excavate zilliax, puppeteer and prep pit stop an unkilliax!
And yes apm/sonya rogue is very hard to play especially on a phone which is why i dont play it.
I do think turn times need to be increased by 10 seconds for mobile players. Like i seriously dont have enough time to pull off a sonya turn most of the time.

Is Zilliax needed for this new rogue deck?
Nah, zilliax can be cut to he honest, id try mixologist or griftah in the deck
Saw some Tess/Maestra vanish rogue deck in casual today. Talk about boring and uninteractive lol. Rogue just basically kept playing infinite Tesses, which would trigger all the Hero cards played and gained the rogue armor each turn. Once they get Bounce Around off, you’re pretty much just sitting there while the rogue slowly whittles you down and gains armor each turn, playing 1 mana cost Tesses and Maestras. Not sure how viable it is, as it seems meant to just convince your bored opponent to concede if they don’t have a real OTK to deal with the rogue. Annoying, to say the least.
Thats it tome for me to make a standard bounce around marstra tess deck work!!
See if i can get it to at least 40 percent win rate
Does anyone here think pirate rouge in standard could be viable? I have been trying to create my own home-brew deck, but I’m not sure how far this will go.
