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

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,
I suggest people to wait until the nerfs hit to craft anything for this deck. If youre looking for a viable deck, this version gets wrecked almost all the time by Paladin. If the nerfs hit on the oppressive decks on ladder right now, this deck can be decent.
the version with coldlight oracle was still a superior build as you had 2 win conditions instead of just 1. i could consistently beat cubelock with the coldlight oracle build... too much is at stake for Vanish being the key card here. all games literally henge on when you use your Vanish(s).
Very bad winrate! If U don't get the cards U need at the start, U loose 100%
Alternative for Greenskin?
I LOVE this deck :D The games that come out of it are absolutely fantastic and it's ridiculous how you will often defeat well crafted control priest, warlocks and even taunt druids with this. It is fun, effective and quite simple to run, and for that, I recommend to everyone to at least give this deck a chance and try it out for yourself.
Here is a video Showcasing the deck in action in 2 of the most EPIC games I have ever played!
I can hardly imagine a more suitable showcase for this deck than this one! Gj, Kiwi!
Never play this Deck in an Even-Pala Meta, you get absolutely crushed
I am counting on that.
Good deck :)
Hey ty for sharing. In my opinion you can cut 1 vanish for sprint since its not so powerful right now, you can not full clear board forcing opponent to draw full hand and vanish like before. Plus synergy with spiders.
But in general i dont think you need all these striders, slayers, good buffed weapon trades board good as it is. Freebooter finisher is good tho, never thought about it. I got some thoughts about anti-aggro kingsbane with draw potential. Check out, this is the only deck i've made, not really a deck just a sketch
Made some comments on the original thread that links to this. Would like to see your opinions and run some things by your with what you haev experienced with your version.
Really trying to refine this deck because the playstyle is SOOOOO fun
