At the time of writing, the Rogue is the only class with combo mechanics. Cards marked as ‘Combo’ have an additional effect if they are played after other cards that round. The class’s Legendary minion, Edwin VanCleef, packs a powerful combo himself.

There are several ways to build a Rogue deck, each one specializing in different ways to either control the field or directly damage the enemy hero. They may seem straight-forward, but at times that could not be further from the case.

The card list below includes the Rogue’s minions and spell cards in the current build of Hearthstone (1.0.0.3939), including those spawned by other abilities. Those that are not collectible are noted as such.

Keep in mind cards noted as being ‘Basic’ are those the player receives by default as they level their hero.
