Deck Spotlight: Rufeng's #1 Legend China Pirate Rogue
Tonight we're taking a look at a deck from the East and that deck that was taken up to #1 Legend on the Hearthstone China server. This deck was piloted up to the to top of the ladder by Rufeng, who had a few things to say about it.
- You're favoured against Pirate Warrior.
- Mulligan for Swashburglar, Acidic Swamp Ooze, Backstab, Defias Ringleader.
- Control the board early, take care of mid-game threats, then go face.
- You're favoured against Druids.
- Mulligan for Small-Time Buccaneer, Swashburglar, Defias Ringleader (Edwin VanCleef if you have The Coin). Don't keep removal.
- Flood the board ASAP. Get a large VanCleef. Face.
- Renolock will provide some trouble.
- Midrange Shamans running heals and Feral Spirit are troublesome.
- The deck is very good against Aggro Paladin.
- Around a 60% Winrate against Aggro Shaman.
- 50/50 shot against Dragon Priest and Tempo Mage.
- No Hunters were seen on ladder.
Thanks to CelestialSinn for the decklist and translated guide.

Posted Dec 10, 2016 (Gadgetzan)I disagree with this being favored against pirate warrior. After testing, I have found that you need exactly acidic swamp ooze, or you just looze.

Posted Dec 8, 2016 (Gadgetzan)You do realise that by playing a control deck you absolutely obliterate aggro? All these people moaning about aggro don't actually know how to counter it they just hate that [b]their[/b] deck loses to aggro. Why should they have to tech against it, it's stupid!!?!
Learn to play the game before you hate on decks.

Posted Dec 8, 2016 (Gadgetzan)Aggro will always be a thing, in every game you play and there is something called metagame to keep it in check. I hate aggro too but is unfair to say they are dumb, there are a lot of control decks that you also don't have much decision making to do, you can just play on curve. Very hard decks to play are rare on hearthstone anyways. So calm down everyone, everything will be fine. <3

Posted Dec 8, 2016 (Gadgetzan)there are no control decks that are brain deck. Every choice matters because you are always under attack. Aggro gives up half the game in favor of offensive.

Posted Dec 8, 2016 (Gadgetzan)When everyone's complaining about new rogue cards, this deck made it to #1 Legend, with "no Hunters seen on ladder".

Posted Dec 8, 2016 (Gadgetzan)I'll stick to a real Rogue deck, like Miracle or Maly, thanks for promoting more cancer on ladder tho. We don't have enough of that.
