Deathrattle synergy for rogue yet no new Deathrattle… why? Even for neutrals there’s only like, 1 new Deathrattle minion that could maybe fit into the list and that’s popsicooler, but likely won’t make the cut anyway. Rogue’s new Deathrattle is… a maybe good Deathrattle from another class. Great.

Except that this card gets transformed into another class card by the new legendary. Whoops

Exactly. Losing isn’t fun, and playing a losing “fun” deck is only fun for a few games

I can message you a theorycrafted version for alterac valley if you'd like. Don't want to advertise it here. And I don't really feel like sharing one that doesn't use theorycrafted cards because I don't want to share a deck with people that I don't think will have a good win rate, and I think that right now, mill would have a pretty bad win rate without the new cards.

Yeah I probably have like 5000 mill rogue games lol. Vanndar is an interesting concept for mill rogue, and there’s a few new cards that I could see fitting into mill rogue (like the new hero card for sure). But definitely will need a more defensive shell if it’s going to work. I’d suggest cutting secret passages, backstabs, counterfeit coin, and cheat death. They are too situational, and for mill rogue to work you need cards that are useful even as late draws. I also prefer brann over spirit of the shark, partly because it can be reduced to 0 with cutterbutter, but just my preference. Octobots are also questionable. They are good sometimes, but other times they are useless. And if you are not running penflingers or something to ping them yourself, then they are bad draws in late game. Saving backstabs to ping your octobot is also bad.

I agree but then why not make more silly archetypes across different classes? Seems like cards they release for rogue are either meme tier or broken and they don’t know how to make a rogue deck that has a good place in the meta.

I have a n’zoth rogue deck that beats both quest hunter and quest warrior so I think the problem is needing to think harder. 

Burgle rogue has never been good and yet it keeps getting pushed. Why? This card is good for knowing what is in your opponents hand and decent resource generation, but resources which don’t synergies together. People put cards in their deck because they work with their quest or synergies with their game plan. It is unlikely that you will be able to use their card as well as they can use their card. Until we see some amazing payoff for stealing opponents’ cards, it’s hard for me to like cards with these burgle mechanics

As much as I like seeing mill up here, as someone who is trying to make mill work every expansion, it doesn’t seem great right now cuz of face decks like odd hunter. And this deck will die especially hard to face decks since the only heal is one baker, not even armor vendors. Maybe this works against slow decks and I just happened to miss all those match ups

togwaggles scheme is enough for duplicating murlocs i think. as for vanishes, that's a possibility, but the endless taunt waves is meant to get rid of the need for vanish. Maybe too slow but mill rogue in general is too slow right now lol.  Perhaps vanishes could fit somewhere, but then youd need prep and then youd want other spells to prep and then you don't have a masquerade. So yes, this is mainly just for fun.

Nice, yeah that’s very similar to what I’m running. I haven’t put watch posts back in yet, but haven’t played a lot lately since I’m already legend. I forget what I’m running right now but I think I was messing around with different techs like flik, loatheb, glacial shards, etc.

Yeah if you’re against a lot of warlocks and priests sap is great, but haven’t seen as many recently.

Filling hand and deathrattles are really not that relavant most of the time. Battlecries are way more rampant in wild and it’s bad to sap most Battlecry minions. There are rarely times when I wish I would have sap over an eviscerate. Sure against big priest or something slow, but you are favored to win those match ups even without sap.

What's your experience with far watch post after the nerf? I took it out of my list because it seems too easily removed. Maybe it's still good enough but I'm not sure and there are plenty of other possible inclusions for mill rogue. I also have been having a hard time finding decent sap targets so I'm running eviscerates instead (since turn 5 wicked stab is often too slow, I'd rather just have evis). I also think you should really try out cutterbutter in the list. He is amazing in mill rogue for some awesome mill turns.

I'm currently rocking control rogue lol.  C'thun rogue alive and well.  Does well against a lot of stuff in the meta
