Thats what I am starting out with. I would like to put Voidal Poisonings in this deck but they are threshold of 3. So any ideas for that would be great.

Seeing as you're not running any three or more threshold cards in Rogue, there's a simple solution. Switch your Deception and Obsession resources, start with two Deception.

Oh, and why on earth are you playing Heist Planner? It may be called one of the best cards in the game, but that doesn't mean you use it in any deck. You really don't have enough reason to be playing it without Pluck or Catastrophic Betrayal. Try Bipolar Sacrophyle instead.

Scrag and Defenestrate don't exactly work here either. I'll consider letting Scrag stay... but I don't particularly want to. So how about we take out both of those for more token cards like Knobby Stave, Quotidian Ejector, and Voidal Nullification Chamber.

I was thinking about adding maybe instead of heist planner card counter.
Then put in warehouse raid, Bipolar Sarcophyle and red raven. Still debating on what to take out. I thought scrags would be good for getting rid of nasty characters, but ill what i can do

[LucienofShadow]

My point was that you don't need any deck destruction here. Now you could add in a coin flip section of the deck, but do you really want to start playing cards that only work well with one card in the deck?

If you're really planning on using Doyen for your win, you need more high cost cards to beef him with. I would strongly suggest switching out a lot of your lower cost creatures for Sneaky Mansions, Gargantuan Garblers, and Degenerate Molestations. Otherwise, you'll end up with a bunch of 4/4/3 Doyen's - fun, but nothing that can't be dealt with fairly easily.

[LucienofShadow]

Well it looks like he intends to suppliment Doyen's natural ability with token generation. But you're right, the more tokens it starts out with the better.
