Your list gets destroyed by every single budget aggro deck in the game while also unable to outvalue Control decks.
With 2 weapons u have 1 bad draw more often than not.
2x Cheap Shot 2x Pick Pocket = too much mana/turns wasted for not much same applies to Face Collector( imo Face Collector is a really bad card, dont misunderstand me, its a fun card but also a bad card) 3 mana 2-2 do nothing isnt great, 6 mana 4-4 is Spiteful Summoner when u drawn all your spells. 2x Mimic Pod would hurt you a lot more than it would benefit you.
As for the weapon Im not sure including Kingsbane would be good because for Kingsbane you'd need to sacrifice a lot of your deck for it and by the time you actually get Kingsbane, leaching poisons and buffs for it, it'll be too late more often than not. Kingsbane with no buffs is a 1 mana dagger up while Cutlass lets you get a lot of value from it on the turn its played.
Kingsbane version would have to include Leaching Poison(x1 at least), Deadly Poison(2x), and probably Cavern Shinyfinders which is already 6 cards for 1 card in your deck and compromising the deck so much would hurt you more than you'd gain.
Pretty much what I thought, LK generates more Tempo while Valeera more value and seeing as this is a bit slower deck I think Valeera would fit more however I will test both versions when the patch goes live. It also depends on the meta changes, if there are a lot of Rogues LK will be more useful I believe with Tess while Valeera will be better vs both aggro and control decks.
Your version is so greedy but to 0 point, it doesn't generate value, it has 0 survivability, and relies only on creating more threat than your opponent. Short story it loses hard vs any budget aggro decks and can't outvalue control decks either in other words its a nice rank 20 deck.
So I've done a lot of tinkering and I think this deck could work well, the main problem for this deck would be vs Cubelock but it has saps equipped and hopefully with some good RNG could outvalue it as well.
Also considering putting Valeera instead of LK cuz she would give more versatility + I heard that if you play another DK from random cards Tess will replay Rogue cards which could actually be hurtful to you so putting in Valeera would get you out of that spot if you play Valeera after playing the other DK.
I feel you'll lose a lot more matches that way since plays like that are loss of tempo and the deck already feels rather weak to tempo/aggro plays. If anything I'd consider is adding one or 2 more low cost taunts to help increase survivability. Most likely replacing Face Collector who I kinda feel is extremely inefficient compared to all the other cards.
Hello, Im a huge fan of thief archetype and after seeing the new cards for rogue this expansion I couldnt help myself but start theorycrafting and this is what I came up with.
Hope you like it ofc this is all just for fun purposes and the deck itself is a fun deck type so feel free to leave your opinions on it.
