ROGUE

Academic Espionage

Rating: Medium
Comment: A lot of the rogue cards look like fun or curious toys, and this ranks up there. The most obvious use for AE is a fatigue avoider. There's also some odd things you can do with emptying your deck, and then this can keep you from dying after blowing it up. I doubt you want to just play it and have random cards in your deck, even with Tess.

Comment: Your opponent has ways to defeat this, and there are more efficient ways to get instagib effects (Plague Scientist, plant, etc)

Comment: At first, I was like "that's an awesome new Dark Iron Dwarf!" Then I realized it was combo. It's still potentially fantastic, but 5 mana is much harder to combo.

Comment: I can see a crapton of uses for this. It's a strictly better Gang Up (unless you really liked to gang up your opponent's minions) that can be bounced to gang up some more. Imagine the spiders! Imagine the pogos! Plus, I play more rogue than anything else, so I'm thrilled to have a chance to play with this card.

Comment: 5 is a lot to pay for a 4/2, even if it does net you a replacement card. Rogue's usually not a good class for incremental value games, and the last meta was definitely not favorable for it. I'm kinda curious which deathrattles rogue even aims for here. Sorry, Allie.

Comment: There's going to be some weird combo shenanigans with this card, but will they actually be any good? I think it's almost as viable just to wait for the natural end of your deck if you want to combo stuff, so I'm really not feeling this. I do expect there to be someone who figures it out, but it won't be me.

Comment: A 3/2 for 3 is Fiery War Axe, although I don't know rogue needs a fiery war axe. The effect is really interesting, but I honestly don't know which minions you'll want. In wild, I'll use this for my Jade Swarmers, but in standard? I doubt I'm going to combo it off Blightnozzle Crawler. I dunno.

Comment: Ditto the above. I don't know what deathrattles rogue even has right now. Not finding much of interest other than Cube and some of the cheap stuff like Loot Hoarder. So for now the deathrattle stuff gets a low rating.

Violet Haze

Rating: Low
Comment: Well, I guess I could get Kingsbane off this, which I don't own, but beyond that, what exciting minions are there? When the best answer I can find is "Kaboom Bot," I think I'm gonna take a pass.

Pogo-Hopper

Rating: Meme-tastic
Comment: I dunno about you guys, but I'm totally going to try making Pogo-Hopper work. I mean, it's not as stupid as it sounds, since all you have to do is bounce it and it becomes a 3/3. Make some copies, shuffle some copies, draw the second one, and this thing grows stupidly fast. If it weren't for the fact that it's a bit slow, and I'd say this thing could be great. Of course, the whole deck can't be built around it, but while you're recycling spiders and cycling your deck, I can see this happening. Or maybe I'm just way too optimistic.
