I'm not so sure this is still playable. I've played a lot of Rogue and the 4-drop slot has always been highly competitive - you do not want to have too many cards in this specific mana slot. Current lists already run six 4-drops, and this will make it eight. You won't be able to go Prep + Raiding Party + Edwin, or Prep + Raiding Party + coin Waggle Pick + Dread Corsair, or whip out Prep Raiding Party at literally any point in the game.
On the other hand, current Lackey Rogue struggles with card draw in the games where you don't draw Raiding Party, so I'm not sure you an afford to NOT run it. Two questions then follow - 1) Is eight 4-drops too many? If so, 2) what will you cut from current lists to fit in Raiding Party?
