I play it and win lmao. You just aren't playing good rogues (mostly because the deck is brand new). There's a reason it has a great win rate though...

What rank are you? Your claim that you never lose to it is either a lie (the most likely case) or you've played like 3 games, or you're rank 20.


The fact that it has a great win rate says more than many might think since it's not a brain dead play and attack deck like pirate Warrior or any "play on curve" deck
More chance for misplays means lower generalized win rate. Means it's actually way higher for people that know how to play.

I remember Patron warrior was like 50% win rate back in the day

That patron statistic was a little skewed. The 50% win rate was in tournaments and mostly caused by patron vs patron mirrors.

Yes precisely, it's a difficult deck to play and still has a very good win rate.

It was around 50% on the ladder too

Secret Mage also obliterates Rogue (both kinds).

I imagine Blizz will change the quest specifically.

It will be very sad if they make it require 5x. That'll nerf it to oblivion into the category of shit decks that frustrate you when they get lucky.

Maybe instead of needing the quest requirements, change the mana cost of the quest itself to 2. That alone would make a world of difference.

then it's the only quest in the game at 2, unless we're nerfing every quest in the game

I think they just need to stop getting 5/5 chargers for 1 mana
They get to trade however they like or burst you down whenever

It's also the strongest quest in the game. The archetype would survive at 2 mana. It'd just be harder to use and less likely to go off by turn 5.
