Now, not in the sense that there should be a Brann Bronzebeard in this deck because of stacking Raptor effects... what is wrong with this deck that I went from Rank 16 to 19 and a star? I need help finding what I can fit and remove from the deck to help it play better.
Everything about the deck is bad you put up a board and blow it yourself.. you try to gain tempo and then lose all of it cause of gang up or vanish or shadowstep.
a rattle rogue tried to gain huge value with raptors that's how they win generally (and it's not SUCH a good deck TBH) your deck though.. (?)
Who says that? Except people trying to sell stuff to the dumb majority that is.
Well I mean, BokotoXXX says that. I do feel like it's a less what "they" say and more what BokotoXXX says. :P
That being said, OP have you looked at any other Raptor lists? Sometimes it helps to see what other people have done when you're brewing a deck that fits an existing archetype.
Looking at your list it looks like it doesn't really have a clear win condition to me other than some really slow combos with Brann. From an objective perspective Gang Up is generally very, very hard to run without having a large amount of cycle (Mill Rogue can run it because generally they copy card cycle). Vanish seems like a stall tool but generally does as much damage to a board-centric deck like Raptor as it does to another board-centric deck.

Articles I suggest every player reads to improve at the game;
#1 Why are you running gang up? A card like Gang Up only is good in a control rogue deck with cards like Antique Healbot or the Murloc who draws two cards. In certain cases yeah you could run gang up but it isn't worth it.
#2 Why are you running explosive sheep? Generally trash card unless with some kind of Janky Freeze Mage deck.
#3 Why run vanish? It's only a control aspect but this is a tempo deck, right?
My propoused changes:
-2 Gang Up + 2 Piloted Shredder
-2 Explosive sheep + 1 Fan of Knives +1 Shadow Step
In my Testing of Raptor Decks, Nerubian Eggs are the star with Shredders and Loot Hoarders not too far behind. The problem with high cost deathrattles is you feel obligated to sit on the Raptors, and Rogue just doesn't have the cards to play a control game like that.
IMO, Raptor works as a Mid Range deck, shoving in high cost minions doesn't work.
Don't mean to promote myself, but the list I posted was what I had best results with. I've done a ton of experimentation and found that combination of cards to be the best. I'd use it as a base and change cards as you go if you want, it's really good to climb with right now. There are also some different lists here with Brann, without the Egg, etc. Try and find what you like best and perfect it. Good luck!

Spoken like a true scholar. I'm not much for copying anything, but merely take inspiration and make ridiculously fun decks. I want to give this a serious spit shine, so I can cross reference some things and take ideas from, at least.

For me it seems that you lack early game minions. Also I don't get why you have Gang Up in this deck.
your deck is too slow for raptor
No clue what you are trying to do with this deck. Why gang up, Baron, Emperor, Vanish, Explosive Sheep?
Rank 4 Tempo Mage

Okay so here is what I think.

My propoused changes:
-2 Gang Up + 2 Piloted Shredder
-2 Explosive sheep + 1 Fan of Knives +1 Shadow Step
-1 Vanish +1 Sylvannas Windrunner
-2 Loot Hoarder +2 Leper Gnome
-1 Baron Gedden +1 Brann Bronzebeard
-1 Preperation -1 Dark Iron skulker
+2 Nerubian Egg
Just a thought but I hope it helps
Ciao!
