 Really? 

Turn 2 1/1 stealth jade minion, turn 3 this and trade the jade, already get the value, opponent MUST destroy her like Fandral for druid with let see frostbolt or something like that, you already get card advantage.

Don't look too much situational to me...

Even a Firefly is not that bad.

 It's the same as Culk Master, except that it costs 1 mana more, has +2 attack and your opponent knows what you got. Sure the 1 mana makes some cards a lot better, but essentially it's the same principle. She also must be removed obviously, yet she sees almost no play, because she is so easily dealt with and the board state too situational for her to give a big payoff.

Soo good much rogue love this expansion i like whats coming.

Step aside, Ultimate Infestation, there's a new Broke Back card in town and her name is Sonya Shadowdancer.

 You must be joking. This is barely a better Cult Master or Shadowcaster, let alone on the power level of 17 mana UI, that carries an entire deck and makes it work.

 Shes actually pretty insane when you think about it, drop her feed in your vilespine kelseth shadowdancer even gorgon or gorgon her even and get 2 copies of cards your trading in or maybe even 2 gorgons like theres so much indefinate combo loop power because your not just getting 1 card in value your getting 2-3 cards maybe even 4+ cards in value. at a lower mana cost with insane effects.

or drop her swing a gorgon in play the gorgon play the clone swing in a bone made now you got 3 1 mana bone mares. Then shadow step her even for insane possile effects.

Ya I don't really like this card. Its too situational... oh and I don't like rouge. Really I don't this card is going to make much an impact.

The real value is cycling high attack charge minions.

Imagine having a Reckless Rocketeer on board and playing this, than trading into the enemy minions. It's like deal 5 damage to a minion for 1 mana, if the minion had 2 attack or more put it back in your hand.

THICC ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

but I still gonna miss my Shadowcaster in 2k18 :'(

It is a situational card but its also easy to incorperate and get some value out of without being problematic. Low value curve you can walk away with some extra swash bucklers or maybe a patches putting 7 damage into something. High value you could walk out with kelsath or bonemare or a gorgon copying her into alot of copys of both of those cards. I think the value you can get out of her outweighs the value of not having her in favor of something else to the point that she will see play.

This is pretty good, will probably see play in pretty much every rogue deck

This card would be crazy if there was a cheap Charge minion with a positive deathrattle effect. 

Only a Stonetusk Boar can deal 6 damage with this card. If a card somehow also could reduce the cost of the 1/1 charge minion to (0), the combo could clean the entire board. 

Cult Master is "Playable" or "Bad"... So you can imagine what this card is...

Very good potential but in later turns, such weak stats means you can’t really play her alone and wait a turn, but in late game 3 mana for a board of good stuff to trade and combo is really good. I wonder what happens if u play her into a Doomsayer, will you get the other guys back in hand or not? Oh, and thicc nation

With good battlecry and combo cards, and even some deathrattle cards that can be run if chosen, rogue certainly has enough minions where this legendary could end up being amazing, but because it isn't straight-up amazing on its own and requires you to have some board before dropping it, there's no guarantee that it'll live up to its potential. We'll just have to wait and see.

Am I mistaken or is this the first Rogue legendary minion since Edwin VanCleef that will see actual competitive play?

I agree with the consesnsus, this is a great combo card. This isn't an on curve play, but rogue has a ton of minions with crazily powerful battlecries, and if you can get even one of them to survive, you can get a 1 cost van-clef, a 1 cost vilespine slayer, a 1 cost bonemare, etc. I think this is better than shadowcaster because its cheaper, and because it can copy multiple minions. It won't survive more than one turn, but it doesn't need to in order to be worthwhile.

Also, this comboes with valeera the hollow really well.
