Hit rank 17 earlier today with my nzoth hunter, but i keep only coming across kingsbane rogues that also mill and its getting ridiculous. of all of the rogues ive played, all of them have played that deck. I also keep coming across cubelocks and renolocks, or even worst cubelocks that play reno and what not. I added a corrosive sludge and eater of secrets, but im still struggling. I'm not sure what counters mill, i empty my hand and my spells but my minions i play just get vanished. Any tips/cards to counter these decks in wild? Thanks
Thanks and i added corrosive sludge and i just got steamrolled by my third one in a row. i guess ill be crafting a nice spellbreaker for the warlocks. i just need help with mill rogues now
You actually don't want to overdraw vs mill. That's kinda their goal... The epic ooze gives the best bang for your back in this match up. AS warlock you have an easy counter with Gnomferatu, as Hunter I think going more aggressive is key, but seeing you play control... eh.
The longer the game, the better the chances of a lock-combo is with the weapon. Weapon removal will help you, a bit, but this deck rely mostly on drawing out the deck asap and you won't keep up by just kicking out Kingsbane.
I run a handbuff Paladin deck that ends up with some big taunts. Give them divine shield and Kingsbane is useless, because the divine shield cancels the life gain of the inevitable LifeSteal.

Aggro or Tempo and never trade minions, go face.
This is a great tip...the only bad part about it is that rogues always add lifesteal to their kingsbane and warlocks have dark pact,mistress,etc. i might just add kill commands or make an aggro deck like you said because my current deck isnt working out
Let the first Kingsbane destroyed and they will draw the second ono using a minion, destroy it with Harrison Jones and it will hard to find the third one

Harrison Jones, Acidic Swamp Ooze, or that other epic ooze that smashes weaponry can really ruin their day
Maybe not the answer you're looking for, but Tempo mage destroys all of these, so maybe you could start playing that.
This may not help you but I'm playing control lock running gluttonous ooze with gnomeferatu. Poof! Bye Kingsbane.
Go fast.

Also OTK decks can be effective, except if mill rogue starts to mill you out of your combo pieces or win conditions.

I play this deck a lot and it's really easy to fish out Kingsbane. Plus, Harrison Jones can backfired because of the card draw.
