Hi, this is my new custom rogue jade deck. It can out-pace aggro with decent luck at draws and can out-last big control decks (even jade druid!).
VIDEO:

Mulligans:
Backstab, Jade Shuriken, Jade Swarmer, Bloodmage Thalnos, Eviscerate, Novice Engineer, Mistress of Mixtures, Loot Hoarder, Undercity Huckster
Goal of deck: remove early game garbage with removals and small minions while drawing. Start putting out jade cards and pulling them back into hand/copying them with raptors and shadowcaster. Also gang-up should be used on any of the 3 jade minions in this deck as soon as you can use it as this is how you will start out-pacing other decks.
Brann Bronzebeard targs:
Shadowcaster, Aya Blackpaw, Unearthed Raptor, Xaril, Poisoned Mind, Jade Spirit, Barnes
Barnes can pull out many useful targets:
Xaril, Poisoned Mind, Jade Swarmer, Aya Blackpaw, Loot Hoarder, Bloodmage Thalnos, Undercity Huckster
If you can save Barnes for after you have ganged up, you will have a much bigger chance of pulling a better target.
I will write a detailed guide later if this gets enough upvotes, thank you for viewing.
Very constructive comment ...
This deck is out of control! Woooooo!
Why Novice Engineer and not Shiv? Why mulligan this useless drop used for cycling only? it makes Barnes weaker, and can only be comboed with Brann which is ineffective anyway.
WHY GANG UP???
MOAR JADE GOLEMS
This deck really doesn't need two gang ups, since for the better part of the game they sit in your hand not being used, and when you draw both it's bad. One is fine.
I took out Nzoth since i had no time to use it in 10+ games and Sap and put in 2 x Argus defender
1 thing: N'zoth is completely unnecessary. i played tons of games, but never played nzoth. so ez to fil lthe board anyways.
instead i would use some healing, to increase the odds against aggro decks and mages.
i can say thats true, Emperor Thaurissan is a good replacement, also if you don't have Aya Blackpaw, try to use Journey Below, also Small-Time Buccaneer is also good.
If you don't have Aya Blackpaw and you want to play any Jade Golem deck, just craft it. It is by far the best card in the entire set and there's no way to replace it.
yes i know it's important in it but a. i don't have enough dust yet. b. even if i have, i'll wait a month to craft anything, that time the meta will be stand straight.
There's no way Aya Blackpaw will ever be not good, in any meta. Just like Dr Boom was always good, no matter if there were only aggro or only control decks.
Once you get used to this deck, it is actually pretty insane. Very good against control with bunch of Golems, okay against aggro and also pretty good against midrange. Shadowcaster can do wonders with certain targets like Aya or Brann or even the Jade Spirits. Choosing the right target for Gang Up in different matchups is also pretty important - in slower games, try keeping it for Aya and in faster ones, it's better to choose it for your other Golem generators. I really enjoyed playing it, after figuring it out. It might take a couple of games to really get the feeling for it, but it is definitely a pretty stable Rogue deck, if you don't want to play the Miracle shit over and over again.
Out of curiosity, why the Novice Engineer? wouldn't it be better to get something more powerful or does this deck rely that heavily on card draw?
Look at the curve, of course it needs draw.
I really love this deck man! Thanks a lot! However , why would you run novice engineer when you could run shiv?
Extremely fun deck, love it!
Listen, I love this deck, started playing something similar right after Gadgetzan hit.
One thing tho, you have no taunts, and with the Cancer Warrior, Cancer Hunter and other Aggro it makes it pretty weak against the non-control meta.
BIG suggestion that worked for me = Defender of Argus , 1 or 2 of them (If a brann is also down :O :O ) +/- Sunfury Protector, making the cancer kill itself against a couple of buffed Golems is good Chemotherapy.
i got a problem with aggro on this deck :/ and in depth tips?
