In which match up does Ethereal Peddler shines? Currently I'm running a similar thief rogue similar to your (I like Thief rogue because the games are different every duel). I would love to have a friend to discuss about thief rogue, testing stuffs. Can I add you on NA server?
On the topic, I find Ethereal Peddler bad against aggro AND control (maybe it's due to my playstyle), against control we can out resource them with our discover and steals so I see no point in rushing tempo with Ethereal, risking losing to their AoE. How do you play control match up?
Our deck has 8 different cards
My Deck
The differences are:
Your deck runs:
2 FoK
2 Ethereal Peddler
1 Shadow strike
1 Thanos
1 N zoth
1 SI7
Mine runs:
1 Ooze
1 Patch
2 Small-time buccaneer
1 Twilight Drake
1 Ragnaros the Firelord
1 Elise Starseeker
1 Brann Bronzebeard
Pretty obvious the anti-aggro tech: Ooze + Pirate package. The rest is for control match-up. Twilight drake is because I hate dragon priest (damn now that I saw you like priest). Since I'm not very experienced I want to spect some game you play if it's not inconvinient.
Oh, and I would replace 1 of my Burgle with Shaku, the Collector too when I can afford one

Cool, I'm playing a deck that works around Ethereal Peddler too but its very different. Just posted it: Party Thief

Aggro will always be a thing, in every game you play and there is something called metagame to keep it in check. I hate aggro too but is unfair to say they are dumb, there are a lot of control decks that you also don't have much decision making to do, you can just play on curve. Very hard decks to play are rare on hearthstone anyways. So calm down everyone, everything will be fine. <3

I've named the deck "Red Wedding"
