My personal theory is that Burgle was originally supposed to give you class SPELLS only just like Nefarian. Burgle was released one expansion after Nefarian, so it makes sense. Also, the Valeera Tavern Brawl (where she stole just spells from other classes) also adds to the theory. However, Rogue is known to be the class the uses the most spells (an average Rogue decks usually runs 15-20 spells, more than all other classes), and Blizzard doesn't like that, so they changed Burgle to make it also steal minions and weapons. That diluted the RNG pool of the mechanic, effectively killing any potential of it being competitive. Such a shame really.

The fact that Lilian was even printed and only applies to spells in hand confirms that. Blizzard wants to make the mechanic more competitive, but they still don't want Rogue to keep using a lot of spells, so they attached that to a legendary minion (only 1 of in a deck) and only applies to cards in hand (limits the amounts of spells received).

So that makes me wonder if the mechanic wasn't changed in first place, would Burgle Rogue be competitive? What do you guys think?
