despite the pussy card art, this is a fucking MICRO-NEFARIAN people.
I think it's more similar to a Thoughtsteal but slightly worse
It's really just Nefarian meeting with the Spell Patent Office and agreeing to mass-produce his product in small, cheap spells. But it was found to fit awkwardly in the 7 classes Blizzard respects, yet it doesn't suck so it couldn't go to shaman. This is how Rogue ended up with Burgle.

Its class card tho, probably not a Patent Office, it could rather be Nef inspired and funded a few start-ups to engineered this "new" product.
Love that part about 7 classes and shaman, lmao.
On the "bright" side, shaman actually counter this card decently with thier old card pool. Cant believe I just said that...
If anything, I think they should switch the effects of Thoughtsteal and Burgle, for both theme and balance reasons. Will never happen, though
Lets face it, because Anduin/ priest is the real thief here in HS.
Well, thoughtsteal gives you info about what deck you are facing against, so you kinda "know" what your opponent is thinking and steal their "thoughts", Burgle doesnt tell you anything about opponent's deck.
Burgle against a Druid gave me 2 Cenarius he played Loatheb after dealing with the first Cenarius and his trees and practically telegraphed that he ahd the combo on his hand, then Mys econd Cenarius cam down with more Trees saying "Lol, Nope" and he had to spend his combo against taunt.
Also i just played against a mage and Burgle into spellslinger into Frost Nova to survive one turn for Lethal just happenned.
Does it make any sense tho? I gotta think outside the oil-rogue box. How hard does Trade Prince Gallywix compromises the opponent's win-con? Do the Shado-Pan Rider stick long enough to push the final damage? Do they need Cold Blood? Does Gadgetzan Auctioneer successfully provides fuel to end the game before the enemy recovers tempo stolen by the Cutpurse?
Burgle has provided me unpredictable mid-game threats to confuse my enemies. That's awesome. Oil-rogues are predictable. Burgle rogues are not. We gotta exploit the possibilities of this card (often it gives you awesome draws like my two times Confessor Paletress, two times Prophet Velen, one Tirion Fordring).
i disagree with shadowform, because it basically turns your hero ability into a 2 damage mage........ at best its average....

Check out my Custom Undead Expansion!
...Or my Custom Elemental Expansion!
it's better cause Nefarian only gives you spells.

Okay so far Memorable moments of Burgle

I'm actually trying to fit this in a Miracle Rogue. I'm a rather inexperienced deckbuilder tho.
HS community seem to agree that Gadgetzan Auctioneer defines Miracle Rogue, and Cold Blood was the necessary win-con through Leeroy Jenkins. With both of them nerfed and the Sludge Belcher meta, the deck had no win-con. It still has no win-con (even tried Mana Addict).
But I'm looking for options beyond turning the Miracle deck into an Oil deck. Thus, I don't run Southsea Deckhand nor Tinker's Sharpsword Oil. What did TGT come up with? Beneath the Grounds, some pirates, a sad dagger, Shado-Pan Rider, Cutpurse. I believe Beneath the Grounds is for mill rogues so I won't put it on my deck. What I find appealing tho is the Cutpurse. Without the coin he's removal bait. With the coin tho...turn 2 Burgle (instead of auto-equip dagger), equip dagger + poison = remove /3 minion, turn 3 sap Mana Wyrm + Eviscerate Flamewaker, turn 4 6/7 Shado-Pan Rider, turn 5 Emperor Thaurissan/Trade Prince Gallywix...
