What card should I include into my tempo rogue deck to counter token druids? I'm seeing a lot of them and I'm kind of struggling to keep up with clearing their board.
Vanish works well with Preparation and also counters Soul of the Forest (if the token do not die due to the druid lacking space in hand). Fan of Knives is fine, but as soon as the board is buffed you need spell damage to be effective. Mossy Horror will come too late, I think, and it doesn't help against double-buffed boards nor against soul of the forest.
And if you have spells from the Druid in hand, Underbelly Fence is hard to beat for Druid. But I don't know how many Pilfer cards can be played in tempo rogue.
Why do you need tech against a deck you do well against, or at least break even with? You will literally fuck all your other matchups teching just for token druid.. Although 1 Fan is perfectly fine, as fan is a good card for a lot of situations not just aggro.
tech cards are useless 99% of the time because you're mostly gonna run into other matchups anyways. JUst run Fan of Knives so they don't cheese you with Wispering Woods and otherwise accept your loss against a deck you're not supposed to beat anyways

Wild Pyromancer or Vanish
Mossy horror I'd say.
Fan of knives. Plan to finish the game before turn 8.
I'd put my money on fan of knives. I think mossy horror and vanish are a bit too late and pyro seems counter productive. Could be wrong though
Edit: as Horkinger pointed out, vanish is fine if you can count on having prep

Tempo rogue should do pretty well against token druid. You might not be hitting enough face. Early Backstab and si:7 make a druid cry.
just kill them

I tried having fun once. It was awful.
Fok x 2 and the “spell power deathrattle draw a card” guy. Anymore and just play a different deck. Anything later and you lost already.
such salt much BM.
If you play anything for this MU, play fan, otherwise play nothing. Depends if you run into more Token Druid/Zoo or slower matchups.
