Good for you man, fuck people on ladder being whiney bitches if you beat them with a cheap face or aggro deck and don't realize not everyone wants to drop $50 to make a meta deck that might not even be meta in 2 weeks.

Hey a throwback to old expansions when Shaman got all the bad cards, shoving the shitty Murloc class cards on them once more.
I wonder if the intent is to make people actually consider Siltfin Spiritwalker as a legitimate card for more then half a second.

Somehow I don't think Mill Rogueis that much of a top tier ladder deck, though I am interested to see the meta possibly shift.

I don't think it will because a lot of the cards this expansion dont seem spectacular but only time will tell I suppose.

Just curious, why no freezing traps?

It seems like a good potential card to be running in a control deck. Or do you find it doesnt do enough compared to Bear or Snake?

It wouldn't be a spell IMO, it'd be like a combo minion. Since rogue doesnt really have self heal.

Something like "Combat Healer 4 mana  4/4 Battlecry: Heal a character for 4HP, Combo: Your Hero gains 4HP."

Yea you are definitely right, I tried playing around with this, personally I like having just the 1 Cutpurse. I've had great mulligan luck and had it in my starting hand every time and it works well, I'm just debating running 2 Burgles now because it feels like a Thoughtsteal with a larger pool. Used it vs a warrior and got Iron Juggernaut and Grommash lol, so satisfying.

Probably  gonna replace the other Cutpurse with a Autobarber, just cause I feel like it squeezes a bit more value out of your weapon, as well as Blade Flurry.

Only one other question, why not run Edwin Vancleef? Is it because the lack of preparations dont make for as big a Cleef as with other Oil decks?

Again thanks for the response and input, enjoying the deck a lot , Burgle rules lmao.  XD

Hey man I was just curious to pick your brain about a few card picks since I tried to make a slower Anub'arak deck similar to Crusher Shaman. Do you think Cutpurse is worth it? It's only a 2mana 2/2body so I'm not convinced it trades well enough to merit 2 spots, I could understand the coins being useful to proc your Combo cards, but it says only when it attacks a Hero do you get one, it just seems a bit inconsistent. Perhaps Loot Hoarder or Acolyte of Pain? Since you mentioned the deck struggled with draw. Maybe even Earthen Ring Farseer?

I'm just spitballing though, the deck I made used Emperor Thaurissan as a 6 drop as well as Kel'Thuzad, to try and get Anub out earlier, then just get a ton of value out of him by means of KT. Do you think this is a viable way to try and play him? I feel like Rogue has trouble with a more minion control based board, just cause they don't have a lot of late game threats like Tyrion and Antonidas. Which need to be immediately dealt with, but then again I'm not the most well versed with Rogue so I could easily be wrong.

Thanks for the read, and cool deck!   :D

Thoughts on Beneath the Grounds or Anub'arak being included in the deck?

I've tried making them work, but I'm having difficulty and I was wondering if it could work in a deck like this.

This is awesome, seeing such cool and interesting card ideas makes me wish Blizzard outsourced things like class design to the community.

Love everything about this, bravo and well done!

Onyxia seems like it'll be a much better fit then Alextraza, especially when Solemn Vigil is available. Also you can try subbing out a Twilight Drake for a Cult Master instead since the deck doesn't have a lot of draw and I don't think Twilight is that great in Pally, but it's probably just a placeholder, until Hungry Dragon is available.

That's what I think at least.

You'd have to go fairly Overload heavy if you were gonna use 2 Lava Shock I think.

Shaman will definitely be using Fireguard Destroyer though, as 4 Drops go I'd go out on a limb and say it's probably going to be one of the best in the game, having to fight it in BRM made me see how annoying it truly is to deal with. It'll probably be a staple in just about any Shaman deck now.

If you really wanted to make use of Lava Shock, you'd probably have to use more then average Overload Cards to make it worthwhile, like 2 Lightning Storm, 2 Feral Spirit, 2 Crackle, and then if you wanted maybe throw in a Lava Burst, Neptulon or Earth Elemental. I'm usually iffy on dropping Earth Elementals without something like Ancestral Spirit but with the inclusion of Lava Shock it might not be as punishing to run them alone in your deck. Despite everyone running BGH.

It would be nice if trading was a thing but there's 2 big reasons (at least) why I don't think it will happen.

1) It would lose Blizz a lot of money, people would try and trade with one another as opposed to buying packs, or playing to work towards getting gold/dust that they would normally use to try and get their desired cards. Why would my noob friend buy 50 packs if I can just trade him a bunch of essential starting cards he wants that I don't need?

2) It would encourage hacking/real money trading like in WoW. If you could trade cards from one account to another, there'd be a lot more of those phony phishing attempts to get peoples accounts. And if people knew they could simply "buy" their legendary of choice instead of use the same amount of money to Roulette on a bunch of packs they'd surely just go for the solo one they really wanted.

It's like with other physical trading cards, I could buy like 5 packs for $20 and hope for the one card I want, or just go to a hobby store and pay like $10 for just the single rare I want/need to finish my deck. Not saying HS will never implement a trading function, its just highly unlikely.

I do agree with what people are saying here, the whole "petition to change completely unplayed cards" thing is a little silly.

But I understand where people are coming from, with the philosophy that if the card is used in a mirror matchup it's essentially worthless, and you can't even buff your own Watcher with it.

We'll see what happens, though I doubt it'll get changed considering the good Doctor remains untouched after so much outcry against it.

I can get behind this. I like the idea that it doesn't effect your Jaraxxus hero.

Though this may have been intended so that Guldan doesn't hurt himself.

Also, based on the text, does this mean if the opponent has Demons on the field, Demonwrath doesn't actually hurt them?

Awesome! Thanks for that.  :D

I noticed in the list you have you aren't running any Imp-losions or Bane of Doom, but instead you replaced the Imp-losion for Demonwrath, is this is because of the better consistency that these spells have by comparison?

Sorry for all the questions, I like to see what other people though process is when they're constructing and how they differ from my own.  :p
