This is massively over the top, rogue doesn't have any top tier decks, this just pushes the class down further. 

Guess you pay more attention to Tempostorm than actual professional tournaments, where there are a LOT of Rogue decks that do very, very well against your so-called "top tier" decks.

 A tournament meta is much different from a ladder meta.

The 1000th nail in rogue's coffin. I hope the old gods ressurect poor valeera with powerful rogue cards or she's going to completely vanish from the game (get it? vanish because she's a rogue)

Too many people look at this assuming that Rogue will never receive another AoE spell ever again. They nerfed it precisely for the reason that they can now make more interesting removal spells!

SeemsGood

 I think Mill Rogue might be very good early on Old gods as everyone plays with these giant minions clogging up their hand.

dumb company is dumb,what's the point of this nerf? rogue is already the only difficult class to play,stop make this game a dumb rng game for kids 

Clap, clap, Blizzard. That's by far the most stupid nerf I have ever seen.

They also added a quest with this nerf :

Catch Valeera: "Meet and defeat Valeera in Ladder" => 500 Gold Kappa.

It should have been 3 mana with same text minions only...The 4 mana is overkill.

ouch, so who's dusting theirs for full value?  seems logical

Rogues have vanished from this game and will never be seen again.

RIP

LOL. About time.

Good luck winning without your totally OP crutch, Roguetards.

 And yet the people who play Rogue in tournaments also use it extensively on ladder.

The only reason it's not "top tier" is because it's hard to play, not because it's underpowered.

I agree that 4 mana is quite expensive, it's now the same as Shadowflame yet it's easier to have a huge attack minion in play than a huge weapon.

I just believe that Rogue will now get more weapon-focused tools now that they just can't deal tons of damage to the face with Flurry.

Still surprised to see Rogue nerfs tbh.

Seriously... You literally killed the class with this nerf... Great job blizzard!

It should've either made to deal damage to minions or the cost raised. Both is pretty nuts.

 The point is to stop OTK's? It's pretty obvious.

Damn. I see the point of this nerf, this card limited design space like no other, but that's just harsh. The card is absolutely dead right now the way I see it. 4 mana would be bad enough, but this would still be playable - no player damage limits the potential of this card tremendously. The only nerf I really didn't see coming.

But hey, maybe it means more poisons/weapons/weapon based tools for rogue.

Maybe We'll see a nice juicy weapon Now. 

This will be fine if they print Rogue an actually useable AoE clear since they both need one now and if they really want a control Rogue it would be invaluable to them. If not Rogue might be the new shaman in standard, especially with neutral aggro cards and all OTK cards being nerfed.
