Intro
Hello, and thanks for taking a look at my rogue control list! My name is Rob, Immortal Spawn. I'm a member of BxA's Hearthstone team (links below) and have been competing in HS since beta. I've reached Legend a few times along the way and have competed in multiple online and LAN tournaments. With the release of OG, I wanted to construct a non-C'Thun control deck. I surveyed all the classes and learned that Rogue was gifted with some AMAZING new tools such as Shadowcaster, Xaril, Poisoned Mind, Southsea Squidface, Shadow Strike, Undercity Huckster, Bladed Cultist, and Journey Below. I soon realized how much value could be obtained from Reno Jackson with effects from Shadowcaster, Xaril's bounce poison, and Shadowstep. Even Cult Apothecary can fully heal you in a turn with a bounce effect.
With so much sustain, I decided to squeeze in not one, but two Gods! N'Zoth, the Corruptor is key, bringing back Infested Tauren, Sylvanas Windrunner, and more. With all of the combos and poisons being cast, Yogg-Saron, Hope's End can be supported and fits really well. Of course, this guy is a bit of a gamble, but statistically he'll work in your favor.. usually casting 6-8 spells for me on turn 10. Let's be real... he's a lot of fun right now.
I will add more to this write up, but wanted to get the list out there for other people to try. Enjoy!

Card Updates
4/28/2016 - removed Sprint for Bloodmage Thalnos
Sprint was a little too slow in the deck and often uncastable with a full grip. Thalnos can fill a nice early body/cantrip roll and synergies very well with Unearthed Raptor, early removal spells, and N'Zoth. Note: You can run Loot Hoarder if you don't own Thalnos.
Any stats - at what rank have you been playing, and how has it been doing? I love control rogue, but I've always had trouble with the lack of AoE and WoG doesn't help that. The finishers/combos are great but I never felt like late game value was the issue - it was surviving to get there.
Senfglas played mostly Reno / N'Zoth Rogue today, he was breaking even, maybe dropping a little, at around 300-400 Legend on EU (which is pretty good for Control Rogue). No Scarab or Infested Tauren or Vendor. He felt Squidface was the weakest card.
