Other than that, the deck is mostly built upon the Pirate Tempo package. It’s a great tempo tool and the reason why I’ve decided to cut Backstab – it might be a mistake, but we’ll see. And second reason is that once it’s active, it will remain active until you play the card from another class from your hand, but you probably won’t do that before dropping this for 0 mana.
when I was on 4 mana and played Flanking Strike to remove something and activate it, I could no longer play it. I’ve played around with Wing Blast and it turned out that it wasn’t always easy to fit it in. First of all – 0 mana is SO MUCH better than 1 mana. Yes, I know that Wing Blast was overrated, but there are two reasons why this is better. Given that holding a card from another class is not that difficult (except in Rogue mirrors, where it’s a bit harder, since only Burglar gives you those), you have a 0 mana 4 damage minion removal. This card is absolutely busted in Thief Rogue.
You pay 1 mana extra for a card, synergy activation and a Pirate tag.Īnd finally, Vendetta. While the stats are on the low side, it’s still worth it. It’s also a Pirate, so you can draw it with Raiding Party – a card that I suspect will be a backbone of every Tempo Rogue in the upcoming year (because let’s be honest – tutoring 3 cards for 3 mana is very powerful). While Blink Fox is similar, the fact that Burglar a) Discovers and b) adds cards from another class and not your opponent’s class (which is big in the mirrors) makes it even better. 2 mana 3/4 with Rush can come handy even later in the game.Īnother new card is Hench-Clan Burglar, which is the main fuel for your synergies. But still, even assuming that the effect will be only active in the mid/late game, it’s still an amazing tempo card. If not for that downside, the card would be absolutely busted and could carry the archetype easily. You could also run Pilfer, but it’s a bad card. Technically you CAN Preparation out Academic Espionage and draw a card from another class… but that’s a huge stretch. The downside is that this effect will nearly never be active on Turn 2. First one is Underbelly Fence – a 2 mana 2/3 that can turn into a Totem Golem with Rush instead of Overload. I’ll start by talking about the new cards that might make this archetype viable this time around.
