Togwaggle's Thief Rogue! (Pifler Meta?!)

First attempt at making a thief rogue deck with the current;y revealed cards.

The tempo of a zero mana Vendetta and a 2 mana 3/4 with rush (Underbelly Fence) is insane. Insane enough to warrant putting a Pilfer into the deck to make it possible to play Underbelly Fence on turn 2? I think so.

Rest of the deck goes in on the thief theme. Raiding Partyis the replacement tutor forSpectral Cutlass since Cavern Shinyfinder is rotating, and since it tutors pirates as well, Southsea Deckhand is the new one drop to replace firefly (there's not much else that's good right now).Hench-Clan Burglar is also a pirate while also supporting the thief archetype, which is nice, and Captain Greenskin is a pirate that buffs the Cutlass. Tak Nozwhisker is for the potential Tak into prep in Espionage for a deck and hand refill; it's ambitious and probably too clunky, but it's theorycrafting season, so let's so crazy. Because of Tak's inclusion, I decided to put in one copy of Togwaggle's Scheme so Tak has backup utility. 

With Vilespine rotating, I decided to try Unidentified Contract. It's good with prep and potentially offers some tempo. If it's not good enough, walk the plank or sap would probably be better.

There's a lot to fit into this deck. Backstab and Sap are not in this deck and really should be, so a more competitive version would probably see Tak and the Scheme taken out to fit in one of those cards. I'm also quite tempted to throw in a Zilliax. Suggestions are welcome.

    I think Pilfer rogue will DEFINITELY be a thing. Not sure what tier it will be, but it WILL be a thing. A Totem Golem with rush and no downside is absolutely bonkers, so insanely good.

      I agree. It's so funny that when pilfer was released, people shat on it for being a bad version of both swashburglar and hallucination, and while that's true, it's going to be better than those ever were because it shares standard with such a great follow up. Don't think anyone ever expected it to see play before

    It's an ambitious deck, and it's my favorite archetype (thief rogue).  Thank you for the ideas!
