In an attempt to have a bit more fun in Hearthstone I made Shaku The Collector with some leftover dust for a steal/burgle roguedeck. Any tips / recommendations on what to add or remove are most welcome. It has had some consistent ranked wins around rank 11-10. But struggles versus shamans which is a coinflip.
Thanks for the tips! I've updated it a bit and changed things up like you said among other things. Removed the slow threats like Emperor Thaurissan and Sylvanas Windrunner. Added the Azure Drake now but also N'Zoth the Corruptor. He helps a bit more in control matchups. The new version is linked under here, I refrained from pirates since I have a slight dislike for them. Nonetheless they might be better for ranking the ladder. Thus I have made 2 versions, this one and a pirate / tempo burglar.
Been using these deck's to ladder with this season very fun deck to use Kolento's with -1 Burgle and +1 Beneath the Grounds and my homebrew Jade variant.
2x Small-Time Buccaneer,Patches the Pirate I consider this package stable for every rogue now, good anti aggro tech. You can run mistress if you dislike the pirate package.
2x Burgle: I picked them for the value game against control, though it's maybe better to drop one for Shaku if you had him.
1x Twilight Drake: because it's quite useful against dragon priest, we also have Undercity Huckster and Swashburglar for the handsize early game. Also I use it because I want another level 4 minion, there 're not many good level 4 card to consider. The worst case I played it was a 4/4. Xaril works in this slot also.
mostly because I'm a F2P player and I don't want to commit my dust to make Shaku yet, especially since I still need some other cards like Xaril (which works in this deck too).

Here's the current pirate version:
My take on the deck
I'm currently at rank 5 (well, my aim every season, it's the best reward for the minimum effort)
Brann Bronzebeard : good in control match-up. Also it screams "Kill me" when played on turn 3.
Elise Starseeker, Ragnaros the Firelord, Sylvanas Windrunner are for the control match up. Elise Starseeker gives you decent way to play the value game, while not being a deaddraw in aggromatchup.

misclicked
Deck looks cool. But why dont you use [card]Shaku, the Collector[/card] in Thief deck?
mostly because I'm a F2P player and I don't want to commit my dust to make Shaku yet, especially since I still need some other cards like Xaril (which works in this deck too).
What would you change if you had Shaku and Xaril?
did you consider Nefarian?
I would go:
-1 Burgle +1 Shaku
-1 Twilight Drake/Elise Starseeker +1 Xaril
About Nefarian I think he is too slow though. If anything maybe cut Elise for it.
Cards that I would cut if I want to tech other cards:
