Greetings, travellers, I'm Subrezon, a german legend player. I love creativity in deckbuilding, and I always try something new, and try to make it work. Before the release of Mean Streets of Gadgetzan I will try to fry up a deck for each class that I think has potential AND might be competitive. We start with my favourite idea so far: the control deck killer, the ultimate anti- weapon, MalyJade Rogue.
What is this deck?
The deck combines the sheer draw power of Gadgetzan Auctioneer from spells like Backstab or Preparation, the combo potential of Malygos, and the grinding of the potential 8 Jade Golems from Jade Shuriken, Jade Swarmer, Jade Spirit and Aya Blackpaw. This allows to build impressive boards in the mid-game, while having a possibility of killing your opponent in one turn with Malygos.
Why this deck?
Because Jade Shuriken allows this clutch combination of win conditions.
Is it going to be "a deck" upon release?
Maybe, but there is probably some room for improvement in my decklist. It will sure as hell be the new "tournament rogue", I think.
So, I hope you enjoyed this one, so stay tuned for more! Don't forget to drop a +1 and to check out all of Subrezon's Theorycraft Series!
UPDATE #1: -1 Jade Spirit, -1 Edwin VanCleef, +1 Barnes, +1 Bloodmage Thalnos, nuff said
UPDATE #2: WE MADE IT! FRONT PAGE UNDER ROGUE TAB! THANKS FOR ALL THE SUPPORT! 20,000 VIEWS!
I know that you might feel like this deck idea is dead because it underperformed after release, but the meta has shifted quite a bit since then, and I would urge you to give this deck another go. I swapped 1 SI for an Earthen Ring Farseer, which is a small change, but ive been having massive success with your decklist and I think a revisit on your deck might be due.
This deck is just bad now in meta. With all pirates around, it cant survive 5-6 turns, i gave it a lot of time, and my exp as rogue is really big, but deck isnt working any more
this deck gets wrecked by any jade deck and any aggro deck. Also the buff warrior deck. Its a cool concept but not competitive.
i can't believe actually this deck works
Im having trouble playing a good jade rogue, Ill try this today! Will update with my results! Thanks!
To replace two 4 cost minions with deathrattle effects for two 0 cost spells makes fucking sense.. good replacement
How does this do against pirate warrior?
for those of you who dont want to figure out what barnes is good with:
- there are 15 minions total (not including barnes)
- 12/15 of the minions give you something good to barnes with, spell damage, card draw, or better.
Terrible barnes (3/15 chance, 20%): SI:7 Agent, Jade Spirit
Ok barnes (4/15 chance, 26.7%): Tomb Pillager, Azure Drake
Good barnes (4/15 chance, 26.7%): Jade Swarmer, Aya Blackpaw, Bloodmage Thalnos,
God tier barnes (4/15 chance, 26.7%): Malygos, Gadgetzan Auctioneer, Emperor Thaurissan
I'd say barnes is a good shot!
- 1 Jade Spirit, + 1 Evolved Kobold as a Mini-Malygos.
I think a Bloodmage Thalnos would be great in this deck. Also Counterfeit Coin could work pretty well but I rly dont know what to replace!
I'm gonna try dropping Sap and Jade Spirit for Counterfeit Coin x2. Not sure how good it would be, but I've found that Sap isn't particularly useful outside of niche situations and Jade Spirit just doesn't seem that strong to me (especially with Barnes in the deck). The Counterfeit Coins however are great for getting an early board lead (works great with SI:7 Agent), or they can be used to draw more with Gadgetzan Auctioneer, or you can use them to throw in a Jade Shuriken/Shiv/Eviscerate when you pull off your Malygos combo.
Counterfeit Coin is just too good to not use imo.
Uhh, is there any replacement for aya for the moment because i opened like 20 packs and only got 19 rares and 1 epic and no legendaries. ( i could probably craft her with 400 more dust but for now i can't)
Really hard to replace (craft ASAP, as it's worth to have in all Jade Lotus decks), but either go Unearthed Raptor to copy a deathrattle effect, or throw in another Jade Spirit.
Great deck! Consistently keeps up with board with Jade Golems and has a reliable finisher in Malygos.
Only thing I changed personally was Bloodmage Thalnos for Edwin Vancleef, but both are definitely viable. I just love thalnos in rogue.
I am about to craft this deck, and might be give either your jade druid or tempo warrior a go as well. I wouldn't mind helping out any way I could...would you be interested in my track-o-bot stats with any of those decks?
This deck is fantastic. I've tried a couple of other Jade Rogue decks and they don't have the options this one does. I'm a terrible Rogue player and have managed a 6-1 so far in the higher ranks. Sometimes I'm wishing for another Sap instead of Shiv, but that's prob my inexperience. Well done!
bloodmage thalnos, shadow strike
very good deck. got legend yesterday with it. thx hurenzon.
Replacement for Aya?
