Intro;
Hi people. I wanted to bring an alternative to Rogue cos everybody plays quest decks nowadays. I know it's strong and op and any1 followed me before knows that i hate playing op decks. So i tried this during last week and had a lot of fun. With raptor gone you may say jade rogue will be weaker but the thing you steal from your opponent brings incredible tempo. Hallucination is an amazing addition to rogue. This deck is only weak against quest rogue but you'll be stronger almost against all other decks. Especially there is no way to lose a warrior (except pirate ones, you can steal some taunts or armors to counter them too, quest ones are ez) or a priest. If people have good feedbacks i'll complete the guide below. Have fun.
Mulligan & Matchup Guide; (Updating...)
Druid;
I found druid as a hard matchup so far. There are two types of them around atm, jade and an aggro one. Jade one is not a big problem i defeated them, try to get your own jade army as fast as possible and keep board cleared with your spells and stealings. Aggro one is really hard to counter. They mosty start with Enchanted Raven, so you must Backstab it instantly. Cos on the other turn if druid buffs it with Mark of Y'Shaarj, you'll have a big trouble. On the other hand Hallucination has a big role against this opponent. Always try to get a board clearer; Starfall is the best option cos they may play Living Mana, so you can get rid of them before druid buffs them with Power of the Wild or Mark of the Lotus. Anyways if you can keep board clear for a few turns you'll have a good chance to win.

Other Mulligan Tips;
Replacements; (Updated on 07.05.2017)
While this deck is so fun to play comparing any other rogue decks around, If you also want to have some success; (rank 10 is guarenteed cos i finished last season on rank 7. Also this deck can make you hit rank 5 for your golden epics if you have some good enough time to play, i'm not sure about top ranks yet)
N'Zoth, the Corruptor = Unreplaceble
Aya Blackpaw = Unsuggested to replace
Missing other legendaries will reduce power of the deck but they are still replacable. Here is a card list you may add instead the one you don't have in my current list (like best to worse);

Climbing Proofs;
Starting from Rank 18 and will share a screenshot for each new rank i climb this season.
Ok got Rank 17 after defeating a hunter easily;
Defeated a Quest Warrior and got Rank 16;
Defeated a meta priest and reached rank 15 now;
Defeated a meta Druid and got Rank 14;
Defeated another meta priest and got rank 13 now;
Won a game against a Paladin and reached Rank 12;
Climbed to Rank 11 after defeating a Quest Warrior;
Revision (15.05.2017): While EU meta is full of aggro decks i made some changes. Dropped Shaku, cos he's slow with that body. Dropped one of Peddlers, cos one is enough. Dropped one of Journey Below, cos there are many bad deathrattle minions now around.
Added 1 mistress of mixtures, 1 tar creeper and 1 defender of argus, now deck feels more safer to reach end plays. Good luck.
Ah hi friend and thank you too for your feedback. HOpe you keep doing well have fun.
Having fun with Quest Rogue;
https://hsreplay.net/replay/P75AJ2GLnh87UCN43UP4pa
It's an awesome fun deck.
Each game I'm convinced I'm going to win, making me feel invincible, until the very end when I see that message "You can't loose any stars at this rank!" again ...
This deck is terrible. Too slow to beat any of the aggro decks, even Kazakus mage can outwait you as you put no pressure on them. It plays at the speed of a control deck, but can't control the board. No healing, no taunt, your opponent is free to do whatever they want while you diddle around doing nothing. 1-7 at rank 13-14, only win was a Warlock who conceded turn 4 after a misclick. Unless losing brings you enjoyment, do not play this deck.
Hi m8. Thanks for your feedback. It's true that this deck has no taunts and heals but the reason is you create your owns. Here's a gameplay replay against an ''aggro'' druid;
https://hsreplay.net/replay/SmUq273umbMBJpMbFcmHMX
As you see i outplayed druid in every aspects. Got 2 big taunts and won easily. And if you'd read intro of the deck you'd know this deck aren't for people who wants to hit legend or top ranks. This is an alternative to those boring quest rogue, that's all. And also you're totally wrong about mages. I played like 10 of them and lost 2 or 3. You can check replay section, i just had fun with them so far. Cos mages and priests are best classes to steal from. Good luck to you with any deck you play.
Did read the intro, it doesn't say anything about not being able to hit legend or top ranks. Also, if you had paid attention to my post, you'd see I didn't say anything about that either. I was playing at rank 13, not trying to hit high ranks. Even at that level you'd have better results just going to a casino and playing roulette. As the next poster said, it's a good thing you hit a point where you can't lose stars anymore. Because while this deck looks like it may have some fun plays, they will be fun plays in a losing effort.
Can someone please say if yogg is necessery, i have everything except this card, what should i replace it with?
Yogg is not necessary; Edwin Van Cleef, Sherazin or Questing Adventurer fits nicely, probably better since you're not at the mercies of RNG madness. Good luck!
I think deck is a great change to the current meta for Rogue. I am having a lot of fun with it.
Thanks m8. That was what i aimed for while i create this; a different fun rogue deck. Glad to know you're having fun. Good luck.
Jade Shaman is no longer the best jade deck;
https://hsreplay.net/replay/UTiYYcseqNiqCP9cz5EvgA
You think meta secret mage is tricky (vol 2.)?
https://hsreplay.net/replay/BqXzaxpKjKm8NVD8dB6MKj
What can I replace with Aya Blackpaw? Is she still a must-craft? Perhaps I could just rely on Journey Below RNG?
Hi. Not only for this deck, for any jade decks aya is must to craft imo. And jade decks are still strong and viable. I seen many druids around. Most important reasons i added Journey Below are to get a cheap combo generator and discover Mistress of Mixtures or deathrattle taunts against aggro decks. Un'goro brought more rattle cards so it's harder to get Aya now. That's still your choice for sure. Good luck and have fun.
Fun deck but hard to play it.
maybe cuz my Mulligan is wrong
Ty. While i go to work monday to saturday i didn't have good enough time to complete deck guide but i'll update it tomorrow so you can check back. Still mulligan is not that hard against most of opponents your friends are Backstab, Swashburglar, Journey Below and Hallucination. Against pirate warriors and murloc shamans a Fan of Knives can be kept. You can watch some of my replays it may help. Good luck for now.
You think meta secret mage is tricky?
https://hsreplay.net/replay/Pr4bCL4pXfeYviJJKsHufe
Hi m8. Yes i'm trying him atm. I removed one of agents first but realized this deck needs both of agents, i guess any rogue decks need them tho. So i removed xaril, cos even while i love him he is a bit slow with that 3/2 body and there's a good chance to get him from journey below. I'm just updating deck list, you can check it. Good luck.
Yogg-Saron, Hope's End ft. Hallucination;
https://hsreplay.net/replay/EftMqUG28QGLm8Sh2wqUQS
Hi. While i'm good with current list atm, i know umbra fits this deck, i may try him this weekend. But still N'zoth is one of last cards to remove. Cos N'zoth makes you win instantly when you play him against more controlish decks like some kind of priests and quest warriors. If you have rest of the cards in this list, remove one of Journey Below for Umbra. Good luck.
