In bgs it might see a use, but in arenas, probably not, as anyone knows that the key to make rogue suffer, is to deny him a restealth, which then defeats the whole purpose of the talent, something we've all realised. Oh well.
Opener damage seems a little low and disappointing.
However, take these words with a grain of salt.
As of now, I've only done 2 bgs and 2 duels (lost everything, including a duel against a - dare I say it - ele shaman). One part could ofc be me failing at using/understanding the hideousness known as the blizz standard UI which makes tracking stuff harder. Important stuff, like CPs, and those ridiculously tiny icons. My experiences and hope could possibly rise if I did more pvp, but the initial meeting with rogue pvp 5.3 hasn't left me entirely convinced
If it stays as it is now, I do feel we'll see fewer rogues as the playstyle will be harder to master, when even other melee can kite you.
None of my abilities did more than 70k (the ones I was able to land anyway) (gemming pvp power and full tyrannical) whereas I took a 100k+ powershot to the ass. Ofc, that hunter could've had buffs going, but hey, blizz standard UI, can't see shit.
Im trying to duel people as I type, but with little success, like 5ht duel declined. It's like I'm on a fucking job search again-_-
And I might improve my gameplay obviosuly if I keep playing ptr more, and not after being awake for 21 consecutive hours (yes, it's weak, I know!) either, and try different gemming approches (fancy trying full agi gemming, for instance).
