I can personally recommend Thief Rogue. Pretty much nobody runs weapon removal at the moment, only Highlander decks can potentially wiggle their way into it through Zephrys, which means you get to pound out absurd amounts of damage with Cutlass to opposing face or minions and get very good survivability out of it against aggro. You also have very powerful tempo plays against opposing tempo and aggro in the form of backstabs, vendettas, Underbelly Fences and Saps and get to disrupt opposing combo or reactive play through Loatheb and the back-breaking Zihi battlecry. Plus, you have access to tons of draw through Raiding Party and Elven Minstrel to dig your way to the weapon and card generation. Currently sitting at 64 % winrate with it. It's been performing consistently well against DH, all Mages, Warlocks and Highlander Priests. Haven't been playing it that much in the last few days but gave it a good whirl about a week ago, i.e. before most of the competition got nerfed and went 15-2 with it over the course two days. It's been performing spectacularly for me for several expansions now with little changes.
I have been trying to get cutlass Rogue to work for ages, but I really only dabble in wild. Unfortunately I think my mmr carries over from standard so I always get queued against Tier1 decks :(
I will try your list! Although I may need to consider some crafting (like loatheb)
He provides the needed stats to what would otherwise be crappy 1-drops that are supposed to be beefy and getting Rushed out with our Magic Carpet (or just being a neussiance in their own right)
I'd just run the Shieldbearer version if you can't craft.
Thanks for the reply. That's fair enough..
I hate being that guy, asking replacement for a key card lol. Good to know you think it's not playable without him. Cheers
With regards to Demon Hunter, I'm very happy with the Battlefiend nerf. I think Altruis the Outcast shouldn't do face damage with its ability, but the mana nerf is appreciated. I think Glaivebound Adept needed a mana nerf more than an attack nerf.
I still think Priestess of Fury needs a health nerf to at least 5. And finally, Twin Slice should be nerfed to 1 mana, while KEEPING Second Slice at 0. It's NOT a twinspell! Triggering both for free is broken, even with the Altruis the Outcast nerf.
Having played only a little, I'm already getting fed up with Demon Hunter. You just can't experiment even a little bit because even a good deck gets demolished before turn 10. You must play Demon Hunter. Instead of 10 classes, we have 1.
This.
Trying Dog's Control Shaman... We'll see how it goes.
Well that's boring. I was hoping they'd at least rework the card seeing how it's....you know....utter garbage and useless in just about every circumstance.
Also a shame they're going to waste a cool character on such a weak effect. At least buff the guy so there's a reason to play him.
Agreed. Got excited from the title that he might be getting a new effect... I've never d/e him because he looks rad, but also never played him in a real deck
Is there any card to replace halazzi in quest hunter? Only missing that one and dont feel like crafting it.
I felt exactly the same. Replaced it with a scavenging hyena. I also played shuma instead of flark. Got to legend for the first time with it, but that was just before embiggen druid hit the scene
Congrats! I was about to say I found Rogue handled them pretty well if you Mulligan for back stab

Keen to play around with this! Thanks for posting.
I don't have tekahn.. What would you replace with? I have that grand lackey guy
Slightly unrelated question, but what happened to the hsreplay banners with win rates when you look at the decks?
Well done op! And the others too!
I managed it today with a carpet galakrond Rogue list which did surprisingly well against dh and went on a bit of a streak with it.
Onyxia was my legendary.. Feelsbadman. Can also echo the point about lots of legend players; came in at 10,500 or something!
I agree with you so much!
This is worse than when I found out about Santa :'(
This.

Thank you! Almost missed this..! A reminder is usually on the home page as an article?
It was in one of the recent patch notes (highlighted on this site) but there was no explanation from blizzard. People agreed it was weird
What do you think about the new minion that evolves adjacent ones? I think that should work on dormant, no?
Agreed. Got excited from the title that he might be getting a new effect... I've never d/e him because he looks rad, but also never played him in a real deck
Awesome!!! Nice work! Nothing wrong with celebrating the milestone with everyone here. Someone I know did the same in Jan ;)
Just realised it can't be played on mobile :(
Have you tried this deck in standard?? Looks fun and only one card to replace (or in my case two without Frizz)
Looks fun!
This looks so crazy that it just might work!
Love the idea and will definitely be trying it out haha

Thanks everyone!!
Yeh haha I got shuma then veranus from packs, so went yolo and crafted the quest
Thank you! Glad I made the climb before winged guardian haha!
