This is far and away the best rogue deck on the ladder right now. I am not a good player, my top ranking until now was rank 7 spamming quest rogue before the nerf. I took this deck from rank 18 to rank 1 at the height over just under 4 days.

I've floored out at rank 5 again, but the deck is amazing. You are favored against jade druid simply because you can spawn jades faster, and get more explosive value earlier in the game, Your goal in that matchup is to accrue as many dead jade swarmers and Aya Blackpaws as possible to end with one decisive n'zoth turn.

Your big weakness is pirate warrior. You control the board with removal and minions, but you don't have much space for anti-weapon tech if you want to stay alive on ladder. When I tried adding gluttonous ooze I found it really hurt my matchups versus virtually every other deck I saw. Quest mage can also be difficult if they manage to freeze your board and destroy your threats. However, those are the only two decks I have consistently struggled against on my entire climb.

From rank 18 to rank 11 I didn't lose a single game. Originally the deck didn't have Aya because she wasn't in my collection. I swapped a sap from my previous decklist for her after deciding to craft her around rank 14, but it felt decent before cause you have a good chance to take Aya from journey below. I also at one point added Golakka crawler, but it just felt shitty.
