Finally legend for the third time... this time was the hardest though.
From 6 to 1 with n'zoth miracle rouge... fluctuated between 1 and 2 for days, switched to straight miracle rouge, almost there but still rank 1. Decide the meta is terrible for rouge at the moment (mostly facing shaman, dragon tempo warrior) switch to tempo warrior, never going back to rank 2 but still just levelling around rank 1. Finally switch back to miracle and didn't lose a game (4 win streak to legend). BLOODY HELL what a grind.
Lovely how in this game a class a) doesn't exist or b) is OP. Hunter and Shaman? OP. Priest? FUCKING NONEXISTANT.
Fuck this game.
fuck the english language too, apparently spellchecker is non-existent on your computer
Sorry for living in a country where English isn't the first nor the second language. Nicely contributed to the thread, really appreciate how you share your salt with us :*
Ignore the trolls Karpf1sh. I agree though Rogue, Mage, Hunter, Warlock and Warrior have been at the top of the pile for years. Shaman has been at least middle of the road along with Druid. Priest has basically been dead and gets worse while the other classes get improvements each time. Blizz must hate Priests.
Yeah Priest has just gotten worse with each new release of cards... but look what Blizzard did for shaman, give them enough broken cards and their decks become viable. So I wouldnt be surprised if next release brings some broken priest cards that put them up with the rest. But unfortunately Priest (at the moment) is basically only limited to control versions. A midrange priest would be sick
Nice! Cool to see someone getting legend with Maly. At the moment im running N'zoth rouge around rank 1. I might try this variation out, although im more experienced in the rouge versions without maly. The evolved Kobold could be a sweet tech in.
The thing about rouge is that it is a harder class to play, you cannot just pick up a top tier list and get top tier results.. other classes like shaman, pick up a list and BAM you can get good enough wins without even experiencing the deck.
I do enjoy playing the deck for the most part, despite some of the monotony, but I'm having my ass handed to me nearly every game. I'm not a pro player, but I understand the intricacies and synergies this deck relies on. I think my playing is getting better, but it does me no good against a druid who throws out three extra mana crystals in the first two turns and has two Boulderfist Ogre on the Board before I can even get out Xaril, Poisoned Mind out. Or against a bad druid who, oh look, throws out Reno Jackson with 3 health left while I have 5, so it doesn't matter what kind of Edwin VanCleef I have on the board. Or the priest who builds up and punches me in the face with an 18+ C'Thun just as my games starts to roll.
It never seems like I can get a Conceal in my hand, along with Edwin VanCleef before I can get to a Gadgetzan Auctioneer, and I'm lucky if the game gets that long with so many Aggro Decks out there. Or I'm sitting there with a handful of The Coin and Preparation and Cold Blood with no minions to play, while they pound my face as I wait for VanCleef. I won seven games in a row the first day, ten in total, and made it to my highest ranking in Hearthstone ever. But the last three days have been no wins unless somebody DCs or Concedes when they think I have more in my hand than I do.
As I'm still kind of new, I don't have Leeroy Jenkins or Harrison Jones or the dust to craft either one. I've replaced them with Reckless Rocketeer and Acidic Swamp Ooze, respectively. Surely the lack of only those two cards doesn't mean I can't play this deck at all, or does it?
Maybe bad player is just bad, but I've watched Ryzen and others on Twitch. I've read many pages of strategy to use the deck correctly, but still I've lost probably 40 games in the last two days. I love playing Rogue. Started playing one in 2004 in WoW, and he has always been my main, so I would love to be able to play one well in Hearthstone, instead of going with the flavor deck of the month just to win. For me, this deck so far has been both exhilarating and frustrating beyond belief.
From my experience the win condition is 95/100 games not a concealed Edwin, but a concealed auctioneer or a very powerfull turn. If you can clear the board, conceal 2 minions and draw coldblood then you are pretty much there already
one more thing, use cold bloods freely. Your usually not looking for a cold blood conceal I've found. It's better to cold blood a minion and hit face if it will make your opponent have to spend resources dealing with it. I cold blooded a 1/1 against a hunter and hit face just before his turn 6, just so he couldn't drop his 6 mana highmane, instead he had to use quick shot on a 1/1. and drop a smaller minion.

First of all, stop worring about edwin, he's in the brotherhood. Sometimes he shows up in your game to single handedly win, other times he's off doing random brotherhood shit. Your win condition is pressure throughout the game + a auctioneer. Most games your aiming for a concealed auctioneer. Every game you want to be dropping a 3 drop, 4 drop (preferably tomb pillager) 5 drop drake. Whilst dropping those minions you have to decide whether to utilise prep + a spell to have board advantage (and obviously using the backstab if you have it).
Id take out the ooze, weapon removal is not vital to what you want to do. Put in a teacher if you haven't already. With edwin, if I have the coin I keep him in mulligans somethings throwing him out as a 4/4 on turn 3. But don't keep him if you don;t have the coin. Against druid always try and go for a solid curve. You just need to be putting minions on the board so he has to use his resources taking out your minions instead of putting his own minions on the board. Against zoo and hunter you really need some spells to back up minions. Against zoo do what ever it takes to keep their board completely free of minions. Trade trade trade.
Xaril is a really bad minion to play on turn 4, its just too weak. That's a minion your ideally looking to play along with another minion on turn seven or along with a spell like evis. Also, if you have two tomb pillagers in hand with the coin, most of the time your looking at coining them out on turn 3. They are such a strong minion. Good luck, keep practising 加油加油
Yeah im saving up dust now for Malorok, probably going to run a tempo warrior instead of patron. Yeah that's the only thing about rafaam, in some situations he's just going to be too slow
It's going a lot better than miracle rogue for me. I really like miracle rogue but 80% of the decks I face are aggro shaman and I get shit on a lot. This is the decklist I started with.
wow cool. that deck list seems a little too greedy though, n'zoth and cthun :o. I'm trying out a list just running n'zoth and reno. Last night I reno'd three times against a zoo, was great haha
I have been enjoying miracle rogue for sure. It's about half of what I've been playing the past few days. The other half is control rogue. I've been having fun modifying it.
Hows the control rouge going? and what ranks are you playing at? I'm going to test out a reno control rouge, but I can't see it being stronger than death rattle and miracle rouge.
I wrote a guide, you can have a look. Then you can ask me some more specific questions. ;-)
Thanks man, nice guide...
I'm ranking up pretty smoothly, at 8 now. What I've learned is how important it is to get minons on the board early. Sometimes I've gone with like an early acolyte, and it just put me behind the rest of the game.
And yeah frothing bersks are really important, I've beaten quite a few zoolocks just from dropping them and a board clear the next turn. I've currently dropped Rag and im testing Cairne. Because it seems like a lot of the time missing a quality drop around turn 6. Rag has been too inconsistent versing zoolocks.

avoid tilt, if you loose 2 in a row and feel annoyed just take a little break, and come back to it later.

just got to Rank 1 using miracle N'zoth rouge with a pretty smooth climb... people who say it's too slow don't know what they are talking about.

80% win rate... seems legit
