Nice deck! To help against Warriors I can only think about Alexstrasza, it may help if you have been removing their armor in the mid game. Against Mage I can think about: Shadow Word: Death vs early giants, or Mass Dispel vs Abomination walls (would also help vs Druids with buffed boards).
I'm just glad rogue wasn't completely butchered by its nerfs. Hooktusk rogue is extremely fun to play. Shame about the high amount of warriors though. Never liked playing against control warrior.
Life is too short to play against Control Warrior...
Well, Pogo Rogue is also an anticontrol deck of sorts such as Quest Rogue, so it fits a similar role, but others already pointed out big differences. In addition, it's not as strong or popular as Quest Rogue was.
I run a version with sharks, miscreants and SI:7 agents, no Shiv, no Thalnos... It's working well for me, but I only have 7 games with the last version (went 5-2 BTW).
Playing since Grand Tournament (or just before, I don't remember exactly), and I have only opened 1 golden legendary, Dr. Boom, Mad Genius. I have barely played it, I don't play warrior.

I'm glad to see people not giving up with priest!
I'd also prefer a light mode but well, I could live with the dark one.
Situational, but at least it has good stats. It may see play.
This. Although the combo with Wild Pyromancer is nice, too, if Control Rogue is ever a thing.
However, a Sap-like with Twinspell or a minion with Sap effect (other than Kidnapper, I mean) would have been nice replacements for Vanish.

Yeah, that would be useful!
Sure, "counter the meta" articles like this could be published on a monthly basis. Keep them coming!
We need to make our decks more popular so statistics are shown in HSreplay.net so we can see which version is better (10 players, 400 games needed) :)

I agree, that does not make any good.

I agree. Spell damage is almost irrelevant in this deck.

I feel bad every time I put Shiv in a deck. I feel something like SI:7 Agent would be better. But, hey, he's the pro, not me xD
Not since the buffs, but I plan to play pogo-rogue for the whole June season, so I'll come back in a few days :)
It looks good! But I don't understand why Violet Haze is in this deck...
Pogo-Hopper decks always have my upvote for granted :D
You probably want more Mechs to add Galvanizer.
I think it's worth it if you are serious about climbing, but I don't need it, I just climb up to rank 5 for the golden epic.
