Two Hoard Pillagers in your hand with a couple of weapons (or before you've drawn weapons) is really, really bad.
That's one thing with deck building I've learned through trial and error: eliminate cards where it's frequently bad if you have two copies instead of one copy and some other good option given the meta and your cards.
I would experiment with each of those, since sometimes decks these days play some 1 health tokens and Jandice Barov and the secretly weak minion dies to it.
Recently I posted about Miracle Rogue being back. Well, I found a fun list that is a bit more effective than the Malygos list. It's a hyper aggressive list that draws most of your deck really quickly.
Essentially, you have to play the tempo game as well as you can. It can lethal really fast. Most games are over by turn 7 or 8, some as little as turn 4. Some games last a bit longer, but you can still plow through with all of the burn and card draw in the deck.
What's nice about this list is that it's strong because if you draw less aggressively, you can still have a strong fighting chance due to all of the burn and combos, especially with Self-Sharpening Sword.
If Leeroy had never been HoF'd or especially nerfed, this deck would be completely bonkers.
Yeah in theory, having 1x Steeldancer can be good as we can easily get a 3-4 drop minion with the Steeldancer. I will try the list with Steeldancer and see how it plays out.
With this deck, the Steeldancer can give you an 6-9 cost minion, then you can shadowstep and get another for 2 more mana.
I don't have Jandice Barov, but I thought Steeldancerwas a good addition to your list, probably more important than Questing Adventurer. With 1x Questing and 1x VanCleef, you get two cards that can capitalize from the cheap spells, but with two Steeldancers you get two cards that capitalize from the weapon. With two questings it gets to be too much.
Edit: too much competition for your cheap spells so that you have dead cards.
You should provide a guide/breakdown to get votes, not think that we care so much about your deck to vote on it without you doing the work of providing a guide, overview or brief explanation of the deck.
I have been playing this list for a week or so, but lately am having more success with the list as the meta is slightly shifting away from Paladin and Druid. Also Jandice Barov might be better than Flik Skyshiv as most of the time Flik seems like an awkward card in hand without a good target to flik. And also with the rise of Aggro/Stealth Rogue, Fan of Knives seems like a great addition to the list.
I like the look of this one. I'm going to give it a try.
The last days I saw some miracledecks using auctioneer but with other classes. That makes me think of if miraclerogue wouldn't be a good idea. I miss that deck a little, as it was my favorite roguedeck. Remembers me on the time when I started with hs.
Same.... It was a GREAT deck, even though it become very prevalent. It's one of the best decks that's existed, in my opinion. People saying it's "not interactive" just didn't do the work to learn the deck and how to counter it. That's the fun of it.
I think it's going to find a set of cards that works pretty soon. I've been having some success with it, it's not performing like an S-Tier deck yet, but it has S-tier turns that make me think it can do as well later on.
I don't think running Malygos is a good idea. While you can definitely burst for good amounts of damage with preps and stuff but it just looks awfully slow. The card is just gonna be dead on your hand literally until the very last turn (if you even get there). I feel a card like Questing Adventurer would be so much more impactful and that card can cheese you some wins way earlier than malyboy. At that point you'd probably cut the strikes as well and I think that actually another card like Vulpera Toxinblade could benefit your deck a good amount, it makes your sword a lot more threatening and also helps you push more damage even with your dagger while also helping you to draw more cards in the process.
Malygos's place is against control decks.
That is, if they get a big taunt wall up but you've dealt 12-14 damage to them, Malygos finishes them off. That's the specific purpose of Maly.
You can actually reliably draw enough cards with this deck to deal 8+8+9=25 to 9+9+8 with Maly, or shadowstep Maly for an OTK on turn 10. So far it's kind of gross how easy it's been to finish games with Maly.
I'm starting to think that similar decks are going to get played by pros far better than I play it and it's going to absolutely melt the meta and shit's gonna get nerfed because I've been doing some pretty ridiculous things with some pretty ridiculous consistency.
But this deck would still be destroyed by aggro regardless.
I think Chef Nomi might be too slow, but it would be fun.
I wouldn't say I'm getting "destroyed" by aggro. The tempo of this deck is surprisingly high, and that was the case for old school miracle. I probably need to tech in a couple more aggro answers is what I likely need to do, or modernize a couple of things.

If I had to, I'd probably pick something that draws cards reliably and efficiently.
Another Shiv, Fan of Knives or Dirty Tricks.
I would experiment with each of those, since sometimes decks these days play some 1 health tokens and Jandice Barov and the secretly weak minion dies to it.

Well it beats them 50% of the time and beats the other decks 70-100% of the time.

Also coin + secret passage + Cult Neophyte

My list beats these top 3 major decks:
Secret Passage
Cult Neophyte
Counterfeit Coin
Completely shuts down this deck, completely shuts down Big Edwin rogue. Also shuts down Druid and OTK mage.
