Just killed a warrior on turn 6 from 33 health with nothing but a Necrium Blade on board
Edit: thanks for the upvotes. Here's a small description:
The deck's idea is to assemble the whole combo through a single Elven Minstrel. That happens 100% of the time when you do not play the Cavern Shinyfinder, however i have found that card to add consistency rather than lower it.
The way you actually win is by having a 1 charge Necrium Blade equipped, then playing Kobold Illusionist -> attack > Backstab (or Razorpetal) the Illusionist and then burn the opponent. That's 4 mana for 2 copies of Malygos. Shadowsteps only help prepare a 2 mana Illusionist, leading to an even cheaper setup, that can allow us to burn even a high armor opponent. They are however not highly important and are probably the first cards to replace.
Cards like Bloodmage Thalnos, Vilespine Slayer or some taunts would help keep us alive, but would lead to us needing more time and more draw. Personally, i have not found that version of the deck as interesting or effective.
Edit #2: i've replaced the two Shadowsteps for one Sudden Betrayal and one Necrium Vial, as a test. The first is aimed at helping against aggro and the second against high armor decks (and slow draws).
As for Mulligan choices: Always keep one Elven Minstrel, as he gets us the full combo. Mulligan aggressively for him.
If you are certain the opponent is playing aggro, you can keep effective removal like Backstab or Sap. If you are certain they are slow, keep Preparation and Razorpetal Volley, as they speed things up for you.
Update #3:
I replaced the Shinyfinder with a second Sudden Betrayal, partially because the secret was performing well, partially because of a rage moment on a shinyfinder topdeck on the wrong turn.
I am personally getting close to a 50% winrate against zoo, which should be a very bad matchup. Don't play like a typical control deck. When the pressure is not too high, try to ignore it and setup your combo. You have to win first, not outlast them.
Thank everyone for the enormous feedback. This is something i never expected. I hope you keep having fun!
Final Edit:
I do not have the time to refine this deck as much as I would like. However as many of you have found, tuning it is not too hard, because there are a few simple guidelines to follow.
1. You should be very careful about adding more minions. Every one reduces the effectiveness of Elven Minstrel by a lot, and that card is the soul of the deck.
2. Mulligan almost everything for Elven Minstrel and go for the combo as soon as possible. If your opponent doesn't have lethal on board and you can set up the OtK, go for it. Don't play this as control because the rogue class does not have the tools for that.
3. Don't give up if your opponent is gaining a lot of armour. If you find the right spells you can burn through obscene amounts of it, as demonstrated in the videos.
And an important clarification. The deck has a somewhat weird approach to it. Contrary to what most players are used to, the aim is not to have a fair chance to win every game. Instead the deck aims at being extremely favoured when drawing properly, while accepting that there will be a few games you just concede. It is in a sense a coinflip deck, except the odds depend on the metagame, rather than always being 50-50.
Updated for Rastakhan: 2 Walk the Planks and one Cavern Shinyfinder in the place of two secrets and an Assassinate.
The deck is now much smoother and can actually be used for ranking up consistently.
Here's a video of the deck by Kiwiinbacon.
And here is the second video!
oh yeah, now I understand what you meant
Excellent deck. 5:1 so far. Great fun, thanks for posting
OTK means over the knee.
why did he said he otk in turn 7? cause otk means one-turn kill. and on turn 7 the opponent had less than 30 hp lmao
???????????????
so if the opponent has 29 hp it's not a OTK? please teach me how to hearthstone
How does Myra's work, since you got quite a big hand most of the time.
Additional cheap card draw which can pull out your last piss of combo when you desperately need it
*burn it
This deck is pure s**t.
Should I give this deck a try? I think it is decent and fun too
I'm having serious issues getting the weapon from the deck. Also hardly ever use Necrium Vial. Maybe swap it for Myra's element?
Necrium Vial is really good if your opponent is druid or warrior, so you can deal up to 91 damage from hand with proper setup
went 1-8 with this, used all my dust to craft and am very sad :'(
That's why it's a good idea to wait a week after an expansion's release before you start crafting.
Your fault. If you had a brain, you would never do it.
Its like I never learn lessons, I even crafted shutterwock after witchwood and that fell off hard too haha
What about adding Sonya so your Kobold or Maly comes back over and over?
Sonya Shadowdancer is quite the opposite point of the deck. Here you want less minions as possible in your deck, for the consistency of drawing the combo. Moreover, there is really no benefit from killing your own Malygos.
-2 Cheap Shot, -1 Assassinate, -1 Necrium Vial
+1 Cavern Shinyfinder, +2 Evasion, +1 Myra's Unstable Element
This change made this deck work better. We do not need thouse cards because usually we are facing aggro decks. This deck has to be faster. Turn 6 or 7 need to be the last one
you realise the one necrium vial is needed to be able to do the OTK??
