So i would like to share my rogue list idk how good its fun tons of fun.
Idk if i shoul cut scourge illusionist also i want to put fiz in this list.
I am probably going to cut the scourge illusionist for the 4 mana mech with forge.
I wouldn’t play renathal and tess. There is a mine togue list played by high legend players. It uses the 2 elementals yo kill your owndeathrattle minions. You can play illusionist and then copy of drilly the kid for 0 mana on turn 3.
I don’t think renathal is that good for this deck honestly. It slows down everything while not giving kuch of a benefit.
I dont play pirate rogue i prefer non aggro lists that have late game but also a list that when it when it as to can be fast versus an otk deck.
I also make my lists so i can have dmg from hand i love deckbuilding i think its the most fun part about any card game making a deck seeying how it does it in the meta changing it i am starting to do this again it has really reignited my enjoyment of the game
I enjoy a value based deck that are versatile and can play as aggro combo or make an otk from hand that is my faveroute type of deck.
I feel rogue does this better then most classes at least in my opinion.
The concuctions can make tempo especially if i coin 2 alchemist prep concuctuions for eiter minions or if you need to scam fast vs druid maybe hazy and minion or double hazy.
With queen ashara in rogue you can make otk with treasure and dmg concuction.
You can play for value but tbh i feel maybe if i can put etc in list wth viper and fiz i can have better matchup versus value decks like say priest.
Al the different paths you can take with rogue is what appeals to me i can also look and say mmm maybe if i did that i could have won i love the classes decision making.
Cause team 5 never nerfs the class the way that they have other classes.
Rogue can literally build winning decks with almost any previous playstyle, or even a combination in wild, thanks to team 5 hammering other classes and doing nothing at all to Rogue legacy cards.
Don’t take my word. Go check it out.
Rogue has ten years of viable cards.
No so called caster class can say that. (rogue casts better than casters, in fact)
Actually pirate rogue is like the weakest rogue deck in wild. Very easy to deal with. The most broken is probably kingsbane its easy even monkeys can pilot it and super broken. That’s why plenty of decks play the steal wepon kobold in their etc.
Kaja’mine creation and ignis are not worth running imo. Tess doesn’t work well with the scorpion because you’ll be forced to throw all kinds of different spells that may backfire if randomized, so the payoff may just lose you the game sometimes. This is the list that has been doing the rounds:
50k bots may be playing pirate rogue because its aggro but it’s the weakest deck for rouge among the meta ones. If you think it’s otherwise you are probably pretty bad. The deck is so easy to counter it’s night and day if you compare it to broken kingsbane rogue.
There has been plenty of Rogue nerfs. The class has been on the bottom of the barrel plenty of times in standard. Wild is no place to measure how balanced anything is. After all, Rogue historically is the highest skillcap class the game has to offer that has been the hardest to master. In before “lol ur wrong”, “of course the guy has a Rogue portrait”, “you’re clearly biased” and all other things people will throw at me.
idk about any of that. I’m pretty new here, but the class is really hard to beat in Wild for any spellcaster. It and Even shaman dominate the matching. Over 30% in Diamond wild atm.
It has been that way since Team 5 destroyed all early board control for all the caster classes.
It also stems from the fact that Rogue has seen no lasting hits to its legacy cards.
Crystal core is viable.
So is rogue class steal deck
So is kingsbane
So is pirate.
I could go on and on. Survey says? #pampered
My opinion on Tess in excavate rogue, don’t game plan on bouncing Tess at all, just think if Tess as a one time play and focus bouncing more in drilly the scorpion and velarok
And here we go now people complaining about rogue. Lmao it’s a nonstop cycle. No one is ever happy and when they make changes people just cry and cry over and over again. Just play the game and enjoy it for what it is or quit.
Rogue has at least four viable decks in Wild, and maybe five or more.
They have been protected from nerfs repeatedly, while other classes got hammered, with the result being that they have a full ten years of legacy cards, yet other classes are lucky to have two viable decks after ten years.
If that isn’t favortism, then nothing is.
I think this replay wil illustrate your point you made to the poster quite well in this matcup i knew i had to beat him with damage from hand this is why i kept valorak in this matchup i am not looking for value i am looking to finish of the control deck with burst damage from hand similar to sif mage.
That is whya lot of players gravitate towards rogue flexible playstyles there it can do it better then any class out there.
It can be aggro combo or control when it needs to be but it has a weakness in that it is usual weak to wide boards and has limited healing although i have healing in my deck with forge and ignis.
I think this replay shows what you mean rouge being skill intenive as you pointed out to earlier.
In this matcup i knew i had to beat him with damage from hand this is why i kept valorak in this matchup i am not looking for value i am looking to finish of the control deck with burst damage from hand similar to sif mage.
Some players will just pick the collosal treasure always and not think about the mathcup they are in sometimes the 1 mana spell with random treasure are needed for extra value or draw when your hand is bad or low on cards.
That is why a lot of players gravitate towards rogue for its flexible playstyles.
It can be aggro combo or control when it needs to be but it has a weakness in that it is usualy weak to wide boards and has limited healing although i have healing in my deck with forge and ignis.
It can be anything at all in Wild, because Team 5 has pampered the class for the past six years.
Other classes also have ten years of available cards, and yet; only a select few have multiple viable decks/styles, like Rogue enjoys, thanks to Team 5’s egregious nerfs and reverts, due purely to their thinly veiled favoritism.
