Win with power, combos, and...insanity. 

Insanity rogue is the new take on the old (and nerfed) Quest Rogue archetype. All the old staple cards of quest rogue are axed in favor of bounce combos with 0 cost minions to finish quest faster. With cold light oracle and novice engineer, plenty of bounce, and TEN 0 cost cards, the sky's the limit in how much craziness you can deliver on a single turn. The introduction of Vallera the Hollow also secures a late game finish versus nasty control decks such as druid or warrior. 

This deck triggers cavern in two ways: bouncing card draw (such as oracle and novice engineer) or bouncing the 0 cost minions such as wisp. The 0 cost minions allow you to play them and vanish all in one turn, clearing the board and getting an extra bounce in. On turn 5 you can play wisp, bounce, wisp, prep, vanish, then follow up with wisp bounce wisp the following turn. An even easier combo is to double wisp, vanish, double wisp, bounce wisp.

This deck's best match-up is versus slower decks such as priest, druid, paladin, shaman (because of vanish), miracle rogue and the new defile heal-warlock. You will struggle versus aggro and mid-range decks; pirate warrior and secret hunter to name a few. Fortunately, the current meta is very control-heavy so you shouldn't encounter too much hassle on the ladder.

Mulligan priority:

Godlike (always keep): Vanish

Great (almost always keep) Backstab, Novice Engineer, Mimic Pod, Southsea Deckhand, Edwin Van Cleef (you'll draw into 0 cost cards...trust me), Coldlight Oracle (versus control)

Decent (keep when you have cards to combo them with) Preperation (with mimic pod or vanish), any bounce minions, shadowstep 

Horrible: Anything else.

Enjoy!
