How counter weapon rogue (spectral cutlass)

without having rustrot viper? His weapon gets really big, and cant tech only for this deck where weapons arent much in the meta

Without having rustrot viper, in order to counter weapon rogue… you would need to convince yourself that you should run a rustrot viper if you’re facing a lot of weapon rogues.

Freeze effects when threatening lethal, divine shield taunts, killing them very quickly, or OTKs also work.

Kingsbane Rogue? Tech in a Kobold Stickfinger and you’re done.

Some people in standard run weapon rogue with Cutlass, which natively runs lifesteal. It’s not quite as fast as regular weapon rogue, but it can gring some decks out better.

Don’t use that, use Kobold Stickyfinger instead.

Doesnt help in standard.

The real options, for standard, are throw Viper in your ETC, or accept the L.

You cant win 'em all!

Taunts, many cheap ones work well. One big taunt is awful as they can silence or kill it.

Yeah, this is why starship taunt is pretty good. It’s at minimum 3 taunts.

i got got by a stickyfingers a few times.

In Wild I have been running an ooze because it’s 2 mana.

Doesn’t do much against a Kingsbane, except to put it back in the deck buffed and ready to get pulled right back out by a “draw weapon” card.

I am going to assume this is a standard question. If so there’s a good general use card that will give your deck time to overcome a weapon Rogue once it’s online. It’s also a card that sees widespread play.
