[1-8-2019] -2 Pharaoh Cat -2 Questing Explorer -1 Myra's Unstable Element +2 Clever Disguise +2 EVIL Cable Rat +1 Heistbaron Togwaggle
Questing Explorer is going to be bad because you'll have the quest finished so fast that its effect almost never works. Pharaoh Cat is a great card but its a great card on turn 1 where we want to play our quest. Because this deck is really about getting a lot of value with Spirit of the Shark Myra's Unstable Element is not going to get its value. Clever Disguise is an easy add it helps you finish the quest so and so much quicker then before. EVIL Cable Rat and Heistbaron Togwaggle are just good tempo cards which also synergize nice and well with Spirit of the Shark.
Is Eviscerate x 2 really necessary?
Well necessary is a big statement, but It’s really good in both clearing minions and going face so I don’t see why I shouldn’t run it.
Considering you already have backstab, sap, and vendetta for single target removal, I think eviscerate is unnecessary. I would replace it with pharaoh's cat, absolutely busted card.
Imo cut 2x Questing Explorer and 1x Spirit of the Shark for 2x EVIL cable rat 1x Toggwaggle
Im not going to cut Spirit of the Shark because it synergizes with all minion but Im going to add the lackey package
Why Questing Explorer ? quest is pretty easy to complete (dead card in middle and late game).
U put Spirit of the Shark and Myra's Unstable Element , choose one to realize the full potential of the cards.
Also Myra's Unstable Element is great in agresive decks with a lot of cheap dmg and low value hand (when ur hand is empty).
Pharaoh Cat - there is 13 cards with Reborn mechanics and only 4 of them class cards, so u want to complete the quest and activate ur cards like Underbelly Fence and Vendetta with this cat ?
Personaly don't like Pilfer , try this card many times (shame it don't give u choose mechanics). Pretty sure Clever Disguise woud be enough for quest rogue.
I was already going to cut Questing Explorer and you're making a great point about Myra's Unstable Element. I am still doubting about Pharaoh Cat and Pilfer because I dont know how good they will be with a permanent turn 1 play, what do you think will fit maybe a lackey package?
Depends on meta, saw few streams today from Blizzard office in France. Paladin with reborn cards looks like a big problem for Rogue and Mirage Blade is not enough, so if Paladin (or any other class with reborn mechanics) would be exist at least Tier 2 - Fan of Knives are autoinclude in all rogue decks.
P.S. There is just my observations.
So, you mention this is an aggro deck but it still seems relatively slow. I was thinking of cutting spirit of the shark for the new 3 mana 2/2 gain 2 attack weapon. And then including the pirate package(dread corsair and maybe southsea deckhand) I was thinking cutting shark and zilliax. It would be one weapon and double corsair, because corsair is also good with the upgraded hero power. Thoughts?
I used aggro wrong and I will change it to tempo, I mainly just wanted to make clear that it wasnt an thief/control-ish deck. I personally do like Hooked Scimitar but in a deck where youre aiming to get an unlimited weapon I think it will be bad. The pirate package works in normal tempo rogue because you also play weapons and Raiding Party, raiding party is the only reason the pirates like Southsea Deckhand and Dread Corsair are good. Im dont think it will be good to commit these kind of cards and the amount of cards just to be a bit faster.
Maybe :
-1 Questing Explorer as you complete quest in few turns
-1 Underbelly Fence
+1 Clever Disguise
+1 Walk the Plank
Great suggestions, but im going to keep Underbelly Fence because she is great at turning the board to your advantage
Btw im going to change the deck tomorrow late in the evening because im travelling and im not able to make changes on my phone
