(Rogue) THE TRUE THIEF

This is my little experiment to create a control rogue. This deck has around 60-70% win rate in high plat/diamond on standard.

This deck does everything what a thief rogue does but better. Due to the pirate synergy you are not as relient on a decent spell drop from “Jackpot!”. 
The main goal of this deck is to grind down your opponent and slowly exhaust him. Due to the low cost of the
cards and their utility you can play it greedy more aggro or for late game value depending on your opponent. 

PROS:
– Can out-tempo most control/late game decks
– Huge card utility ( because of “Shadowstep” and all Batlecries you can play it a million different ways )
– Because of low cost cards it is decent even against aggro decks
– Due to all the discovers there is a huge swing potential
– Strong board presence/pressure

CONS:
– If you lose on board there is little to no board clears ( except “Shadowcrafter Scabbs” and the ocasional discovers )

– Besides the armor from ” Astalor Bloodsworn” and “Shadowcrafter Scabbs” there is no armor/heal ( sometimes you can get it through discover )
– It might be hard to play ” Pirate Admiral Hooktusk ” if you are behind on board
– Due to all the discovers and draw you have to manage your cards so you dont burn your deck cards

ALTERNATIVES:

This is just an experimental deck. Depending on your play style you can include more pirates for more pressure and less late game value, also to make ” Pirete Admiral Hooktusk” ready sooner. You can add secrets for distruption. Or simply add more discovers if you want “Tess Greymane” to be stronger. The choice is yours. This setup is working great for me. I hope you will enjoy the deck as much as I have. Also let me know if you find any tweeks to make it even better 🙂 Enjoy
