At tops right now it has a tier 2 deck and its not even that good.
Paladin and DH right now are at the top still.
its best deck is barely holding a 51% win rate in the last few days.

EDIT
Secrect rogue is the lower tier deck and is performing badly acrossed all ranks d4 to legend in last few days.
Whirkick rogue is doing good.
Imo i performs poorly vs paladins and shamans unless you highroll.
As a rogue player, shadowstep should’ve been hof’ed a long time ago (if so, then not edwin), the amount of created by is ridiculous at times (discover lackeys are easily OP), and SP exists.
All that is bs, because other classes have their cheats, created by, and/or OP stuff. But, no one would complain over classes that require no skill except puking value or trying to highroll. This is while to correctly time turns in rogue requires top skill.

The same reason there’s a complaint thread about Mage. Forums are just a place to vent to what you lose to.

Rogue, Secret and Whirlkick variants are a top deck at legend AND high legend
No its not. It has 40%-45 win rate there as of the last few days.

If my memory serves right, just a week ago VS showed that Rogue (especifically what they called Miracle Rogue) was the 3rd most played class at legend and High legend, and also the top Tier 1 deck at those both, with a matchup mostly Green.
I’d believe that with Demon Hunter weakening they got to rise a little in the ranks.
Yes but the meta must be changing cause its droping rapidly or perhaps players are adapting is the reason as well.
I dont think the deck you showed is the right one. There should be a deck called Whirlikick Rogue.
Ok ill show that one

Doing about 54% at the tops ranks.
That one will rotate out soon.
You are correct.
Rogue was never in the negatives in high legend even with DH being super popular.
Secret (scam) Rogue had a 54% winrate right before the patch and there were a million other rogue decks played in legend.
With two of its worst matchups getting hit Rogue will only get more obnoxious lmao. It’s frankly long overdue that either Shadowstep or Edwin get toned down.
The last few days mean absolutely nothing, since balance changes just hit less than 24 hours ago.
For added emphasis, whirlkick rogue is the best performing deck over the last day at d4-1 and high legend.
Over the last 3 days, it is still the top performing deck.
It probably only dodged nerfs because it’s not particularly popular yet. Given the frequency of balance updates this year, don’t be surprised if rogue gets some touches in the very near future.

I just showed stats with scam rogue right b4 the patch it was 40-45% win rate in the last 3 days. In the top ranks.
Whirkick is doing good though. Scam rogue is moving to tier 2-3 imo maybe lower.
Whirlkick was tier 1 since 5 days. Whirlkick Rogue is the Scam Rogue, far worse than secret in that regard. And like ETC it will rotate - but in 3 months…
Ok edited main post to clarify some things.
It’s the whirlkick Rogue build people are wary of, not of the other archetypes.
It has higher scam and value potential and feels more oppressive.
Well its going to rotate soon. Glad there is a rogue deck that is actualy competitive right now its my favorite class.
Well some people enjoy the clown rng fiesta, I might now start playing rogue again as well- but only cuz I don’t like Shaman and Paladin (and obviously DH…). GO GO Zoolock:D
Oh no! Rogue is trying to make a comeback, lets hit him fast with another nerf!
Why?
Because its has crazy early game, crazy value, crazy swing .
Steal game T2 with Van cleef.
If Van cleef wasn’t enough, can do the same with questing adventurers.
Strangle you with tempo lackeys .
Infinite value generation with Secret + hanar+ shadowstep.
If Valeera secrets weren’t annoying enough, she can get Freezing trap and counterspell from Hanarr. Or Oh my yogg.
Send your big minion back to their hand with sap and the 1/2 minions.
Or just destroy all copie with Flikk.
Get 3 Zephrys a game. Sorry, 4 with the new legendary.
If that not enough, can still use yogg to steal a game late game.
^ This comment.
I dont know about winrates but Rogue is so cancer right now.
Edwin really has to go HOF already…
