LATEST UPDATE:

-1x Sap, -1x Counterfeit Coin, -1x Edwin VanCleef

+2x Swashburglar, +1x Patches the Pirate

This should make the deck more consistent and a lot better against Aggro.  There are plenty of plays on Turn 1, 2, and 3. Swashburglar adds another early presence and further synergy with Ethereal Peddler and Lilian Voss, and we didn't have to cut Hallucination either.  Patches will thin your deck and provide instant board on Turn 1 often.  As good as Sap is against cards like Spikeridged Steed or early threats like Frothing Berserker, we have other removal options and it's not as effective against Aggro or "flood the board" decks.  Edwin VanCleef is good but is somewhat counter intuitive to the deck's playstyle.  You'll want to save your cheap spells (primarily Razorpetals) for Lilian Voss.  Once Edwin was cut, Counterfeit Coin is the next reasonable cut.  There are still plenty of spells to trade, get value with Gadgetzan Auctioneer, and reduce Arcane Giant.  I believe this to be the best version yet.  Thoughts? 

Valeera the Hollow: One of the coolest and most interesting Death Knight cards.  I think it will fit great it this deck because every single card we would want to get another copy of is 5 mana or less and even better... discounted Arcane Giants. It provides a one turn Ice Block  for the most part and gives 5 armor also. It is pretty slow but this deck should usually play into the later turns I would think.  The effectiveness of this card is to be seen but I have a good feeling about it.  

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Accumulate cards from the other class and reduce their cost with Ethereal Peddler.  Cheap spells to replace with Lilian Voss including up to 6x Razorpetal

Every game will be unique as you'll have to incorporate the various cards you'll steal from the opposing class.  There are many different drawing engines, an early game package to compete with Aggro, and late game cards that will challenge Control.  In general, you'll want to save your Razorpetals for Lilian Voss, plus any unfavorable spells you get drawing cards from the opposing class.  You'll want to use your core spells like Backstab, Hallucination, Eviscerate and Fan of Knives. 

The new Rogue weapon Shadowblade, is just what Rogue needed.  It should help clean the board on Turn 3 and preserve your health.

Contest early by sparingly using your spells and playing your 1, 2 and 3 drops.  Replace your cheap spells with better spells from your opponent class and then reduce them with Ethereal Peddler.  Finish the game with 2x Vilespine Slayer2x Arcane Giant, and Valeera the Hollow.  

I know one thing for sure is that the deck will be a lot of fun to play, but I also think it will be surprisingly effective.  Any thoughts or ideas are welcomed.
