I climbed with only this deck today post-nerf (May 23th) from Rank 4 to Legend with 65% winrate.
Proof and Stats:
Why Nightmare Amalgam ? Because the +1 HP is a huge deal against some popular board clears right now like Duskbreaker and Hellfire also it help to activate Blazecaller .
Why Plague Scientist ? I want have better chances to deal with early Mountain Giant against Even Warlock and the card has very decent synergy with Southsea Deckhand or Argent Squire for example , although Ironbeak Owl is way more effective play against Doomsayer (especially behind Taunt minion) , Twilight Drake and some taunts like Hooked Reaver etc since you dont need to combo it or have a board to get the effect. I believe Plague Scientist is core in the deck after the nerfs so if you still want play Ironbeak Owl better cut something else for that.
Why Captain Greenskin ? Because he has nice synergy with the upgrade dagger and Deadly Poison and it is often a better play than Cobalt Scalebane in my experience, Against Psychic Scream and Volcano for example.
After make those changes it leads me to a very decent winstreak and i got Legend pretty quickly does not mean it's the most optimal list but it worked for me mainly because of the reasons i mentioned above.
Feel free to comment or upvote if you enjoy it, GL HF.
Like ErFahBiancito said, Leeroy Jenkins and Vilespine Slayer are the first you should craft for sure, the other cards you can play 2x Blink Fox and 2x Deadly Poison .
For those who dont have Amalgam i can suggest putting 3 drop 3/4 "both players add 2 cost minion to their hand" dont remember exact name sry
Now that we have Blazecaller in the deck i believe the best replace is Glacial Shard.
Hi @Reinan23 , could u give some tips like how you play this deck against hunter,cause it seems its like a very bad matchup against the spellstone hunter has..
I can pretty much beat every deck expect hunter spellstone with this deck. It's just the way the cards work out.
same,and recently i got like 50 % hunters idk if thats just my "luck " ^____^
Hunter is kinda poralized since it's one of the highest winrate right now, it's hard to beat when they highroll for sure, there's not much you can do against 5 mana 12/12 worth stats besides trying to kill him quickly...
The hunter spellstone is broken af against Rogue because the class dont have effective AoE.
Hey andycelloco,
Marsh Drake is a trap card, how you hero power the 2/1 behind any taunt minion which the meta have a bunch of them Stonehill Defender , Tar Creeper , Saronite Chain Gang , Vulgar Homunculus to name a few, even taken the 2/1 with the HP is really bad you dont want do that it's a huge drawback against any other deck that also fights for the board , you will not even be able to play this card if you're behind on the board, think about it. Of course against slower decks it can work turn 3 if they barely make any minion on the early game but even them you are losing 2 damage that problably goes face, sacrificing a minion or losing the divine shield from Argent Squire to deal with the 2/1, It's the kind of card that can be very good but it can be a disaster too.
Hey man, I've had great success with this deck in ranked. I've replaced a Fledgling with another poison scientist. The Fledgling was rarely reaching its full potential while the scientist has allowed me to break down druid and control decks. I suggest you try this.
Also,
For the people that are requesting a guide, the methodology used to play this deck successfully focuses around two priorities; priority one, control the board, eat minions with face more often than not, priority two, attack face with hero power every time you can, this adds sometimes +8 - +10 damage points which brings you very close to lethal with leeroy, cold blood, poison.
TL;DR
Save removal (poison) for when you need to get rid of enemy minions and save your minions at the same time
attack with face and against face
always turn 2 hero power to play into clan member, whether you have it or not, you can top-deck
save all attack buffers in hand for lethal
Have fun guys!, creds to OP for this very competitive and fun to play deck!
Thank you firewater, I'm glad you're having a good time with it. :)
Cheers.
Is there any chance you'll make guide for this deck? I hit legend with spiteful druid, but I have really awful stats with this deck. Thanks mate.
Should I play around most popular AOE and try to avoid early board spam? Warlock hellfire and priest duskbreaker for example. I might be really unlucky, but almost every game my opponents have AOE :P.
Hey Xinerub_ts, I dont really make guides tbh if you are looking for more info i recommend check out HSreplay.net or www.hearthstonetopdecks.com/decks/odd-rogue-deck-list-guide/ they have an interesting guide.
Gl man and grats on legend.
Your Deck looks solid mate,
What would you run if you hadn't Leeroy and Greenskin?
If there are no substitutes I'll just run another Deck.
Hey, thanks man.
Unfortunately I can not see anything that replaces well the Leeroy Jenkins for being a deck ODD deck has no way to use cards like Reckless Rocketeer or Argent Commander for example , if anyone has any decent option please help this guy, Captain Greenskin is just my preference but most lists use Cobalt Scalebane both are very close .
Thanks for the reply though, I'll be patient to collect some dust for Leeroy
Until then I try it out with Strangelthorn Tiger
Yea, you wont regret definitely one of the better crafts out there.
Wolfrider can still offer you the burst damage with the cold blood combo.
Though Amalgam has a tad bigger health, Blink Fox is the better choice here...it refills the hand with a random card from the opponent class which can be deadly at times.
You said it right, can be deadly = dead/useless, you are not looking for value that's the thing you are looking for tempo. Not saying Blink fox is bad but it's not better than Nightmare Amalgam right now for sure.
i dont have captain greenskin, what could i pick instead?
