Ummm... I feel like this conversation was had. Like last year. It was funny then and it's still a little funny now.
Maybe rogue will die every year and be reborn throughout the year? Sounds comforting to always have these threads around. (I wonder when they'll be right or if they're wrong the people who make these threads will admit it. THAT didn't happen last year! )
Basic/ classic set of rogue is very strong. I agree rogue will not completely dead, Still it doesn' t mean that every expansion rogue might get insulting cards.
I still think MSOG release wasn' t fair from rogues side. Just look at the jade cards.
According to latest Data reaper report presented by vicious syndicate app %40 of all decks are aggro.
So what was the latest nerfs for? It is pretty clear that they did not decease the number of aggro decks as I and many said here before. It was a expected result at least for the community.
What happened
--- some aggro shaman players shifted to pirate warrior. (STB nerf did not weaken pirate warrior)
--- some miracle rogue players shifted to water rogue
--- They did not touch warrior.
General aggro number did not change.
But they killed one historic archetype. (miracle rogue) It was hard to race with fast decks anyway, but now it is almost impossible. And without conceal it will be a mere history.
Decreasing the number of miracle rogues, clear the area for jade druids. (Beside pirate warrior they are very good position at meta.)
So what is this hate for rogues? Why rogue can not play jades? (2 jade cards, both is too weak compared with shamans' and druids') No good card beside shaku. A lot of good cards will rotate.

Spreading plague is still an auto- include at most viable druid decks.
I think it is the first time we see a card being played so often after a nerf.
Still very strong. Insane stall against aggro/ token/ tempo decks

0/ 44 is my case now.
and 6 PirateWarrior/ 7 games
what a start for new expansion

2* prep, 2* cold blood, 2* shadowstep (too many dead cards) and no backstab
This way you can face an untouchable board at even turn 4.
The weakness of rogue is it is highly vulnerable, must be versatile to answer that. This deck seemed too dedicated for rogue to me.

Using a different home brew list with oil.
Win rate is very low against priest. (even shaku and curator is not enough)
very high against pirate warriors

Sherazin Corpse Flower is must not have meta defining card.
Another big insult for rogue players.

People might have been joking when i look at poll results. The results would be shocking if only rogue primary players voted.
This is a legendary guys, remember this key point. I am not even sure it would see play if it was a common (e.g. TOMB pillager)

It is meta- defining because it welcomes a meta that does not have rogues

Thanks for comment
Against control seems better,
From my experience at wild, there are lots of aggro- mid range decks which SI and southsea increases WR against them.
