Hi there,
As you know I am a rogue fan and as such, I tried since the new patch to build deck for this class which I believe is underrated at the moment. The deck here is very fun to play although not yet optimized if you wish to be really competitive. Give it a try and share your experience here. There is surely potential to improve it. All suggestions are welcome in the comment section.
New: make sure to check to new competitive version attempt of the deck via this link: https://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/1112853-new-kingsbane-a-competitive-version#related:similar-decks-collection

New (28 May edit): For those of you who like Malygos Rogue, make sure to check the "Valar Morghulis, Valar Dohaeris" deck via this link: http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks/1121095-valar-morghulis-valar-dohaeris
There is also a forum discussion for this new Malygos rogue via this link: https://www.hearthpwn.com/forums/hearthstone-general/general-deck-building/218396-join-the-unsullied-valar-morghulis-valar-dohaeris
I also want to give a big thanks to Kiwiinbacon that has showcased the deck, please make sure to check his video:
General Idea of the deck: as for every kingsbane deck, you want to control your opponent while building enough value on your Kingsbane so you cannot be beaten in the late game.
Why is this version fun? In this deck we try to use the minions synergies offered by the new patch with the Kingsbane such as Cutthroat Buccaneer and Phantom Freebooter. This last card is great fun and surprise in the late game as you can pop two huge minions on the board if you combine it with Valeera the Hollow. I recommend also to combine the ability to play twice the same card with the minions mentioned above and your ability to get them back in your hand with Vanish while clearing the board at the same time.
If you like the idea of those decks, please upvote them, it is always appreciated and helps maintain discussion alive.
Thank you,
What "other cards" are we talking about? Minstrel is pretty much a core for Shinyfinder tutor. Sure you can replace it with Witchwood Piper but the question is why run Witchwood Piper if you can run Minstrel (or both)?
these decks don't work at rank 20 where its aggro heavy
Since you eventually will draw most of you deck you can bounce one of the creatures with battlecry. most of the time vilespine or buccaneer.
Is there any replacement for Captain Greenskin?
It's pretty much the core of the deck :/
I'm pretty sure it's not. The core cards of the deck are Kingsbane, Deadly Poison, Leeching Poison, Elven Minstrel, and draw pack (Preparation, Fan of Knives, Sprint) and everything else is tech.
Wow! I've been trying this deck out (or rather the competitive version) and honestly, this is the most fun I've EVER had playing rogue. When it works it REALLY works! I haven't calculated out a w/l but I won pretty consistently from rank 14 to 11. It does lose pretty hard to aggro, but honestly if you can get to your turtles and get kingsbane with at least a buff and a lifesteal you can survive pretty easily. GREAT deck mate!
37 % WR so far (7-12) :-/
I really like this deck, I'm climbing, but I have a big problem with Frost Jaina and the elemental freezing me all the time, so I can't attak and heal. Any Ideia of what I can do, or some card that can counter that?
You have to sap or vanish the first elemental. Save a removal for when they play Jaina.

This list has worked very well for me.
37.8% haha, ouch
may be include pyromant,acolyte, plated beatle for early game
zola for DK and great nonstop generating resources
i try this version AAECAaIHCO0CrwT2BIYJ+wyA0wLD6gKx7gILtAGMAvYH3QjrwgLKwwKU0ALc0QLY5QLq5gKm7wIA
Slow Suffering: The Deck!
dude 37% means you win 1 in every 3 games how is that good
I really don't like Cursed Castaway as there are instances where its just a 5/3 rush and you need to be drawing more important late game stuff.
You don't put "just" and "rush" in a same sentence, pal :D
Jokes aside, I've been having a great time with Cursed Castaway ever since she got released. And she always handles your opponent's threat as well as draw either Elven Minstrel or Vilespine Slayer, which actually make her the better choice than just your regular draw cards.
But yeah my version does run 2x Sprint. I might try this one later and see which one I prefer.
Im playing Kingsbane since release of WW and the deck is working fine. No Tier1 of course
I like Doomsayer in this deck. I feel like it's biggest weakness is a potentially terrible early game. I'm surprised by your inclusion of 2x Shadowstep. You only run 11 minions and I don't see many targets for it.
when i saw the name of this deck, i was like "what is the matter with you???? why are you so cruel to me???"
and then i saw it was standard and i was like "sorry"
