Turn 10: Malygos -> Conceal

Next turn: Shadowcaster -> Malygos -> some spells, gg

 

Also, 1-mana cards are pretty good at enabling combo.

 Combo with what? Any ideas? I was thinking as a one of in a Deathrattle deck for getting the extra value without hurting N'Zoth's summon possibilities

Seriously... This is the card Rogue has been missing. It's so incredibly strong.. WOW!

The more I think about the card, the stronger it seems. Can't wait to paly rogue!

I feel like this card is good, but risky. If your opponent keeps you off of board position, you're in the awkward position of having a 5 mana 4/4 with no effect. It's definitely powerful enough to be viable, but I think Rogue may have to increase its usual amount of threat density a little to make this guy worth the risk.

In all seriousness, probably the worst card in the set so far. Rogues getting pretty screwed this expansion FeelsBadMan

Still havent figured out how would i play this

But I think it will be my favourite card of the expansion

Honestly thought this card would be a Legendary, judging by its art.

I don't get why people are trying to set this up with Maly? When you drop Maly you want to deal lethal damage or burst and leave your opponent on lethal range next turn with or without Maly. Comboing this with Malygos takes too much to set up. Dont get me wrong it is fun but you'll be spending a lot of resources trying to make it happen. Setting up Maly to burst with spells is way easier.

So Deathrattle Rogue everywhere after this Expansion, THIS is the Keeper of Uldaman of Rogue, even if you get a 1/1 Si:7, or a 1/1 Unearthed Raptor the value the Battlecry/Deathrattle of these Copys will give is worth way more than 1 Mana.

Difficult to evaluate the card without seeing the cards that it could synergize well with in the set, however I'm going to say that its ability is strong and works well with BOTH battlecry and deathrattle cards, unlike Herald Volazj, but I couldn't tell you if it's worth the pay off of not having a strong deathrattle minion in play vs a strong battlecry minion in hand, we'll see.

This card has so many possibilities! Malyrogue, Ancient One Rogue, who knows?

 whawhat?! You need a vanilla 9 drop to live a turn and then play this for your "combo" to happen and then wait another turn until your 30/30 is able to attack ... I don't get the exitement, at all. This card is just bad, I am pretty sure about that! Any card in hearthstone that requires you to have other expensive cards already on the board has historically been unplayable if it is not well stated by itself and this is not, not even slightly!

1 MANA WISP ! That's a card!
But think about 1 mana VanCleef or Anub'arak . It's amazing!

I am constantly amazed that anyone hates Mill Rogue.

1. You rarely get paired against Mill Rogue. 1 game in 50 is probably overstating it.
2. Most decks have a high win rate against Mill Rogue. Enjoy your win. The only decks weak to it are control decks which can hardly complain about someone else dragging a game out!
3. Against Mill, you always have a full range of options in hand. Just make the correct choices and you should win.
4. Due to its rarity on ladder, Mill presents an interesting and different challenge to the standard metagame decks.
5. Is it really so much more annoying to lose your board to a 6 mana Vanish (with a full grip) than a 6 mana Lightbomb?

In any case, while Shadowcaster is a marvellous addition to Mill Rogue, what the deck truly needs is a replacement for Deathlord. Mill will struggle without the board control which he provides in the early game. Shadowcaster may boost the turbo-mill concept but control-mill looks like it will be weaker in standard without Deathlord (and Zombie Chow, in my Mill build). Dancing Swords is also leaving Standard so I have my concerns despite the release of Shadowcaster.
