Rogues are by no means an all powerful PvP class. I know this has been said 6,000,000 times but, it depends on the player's skill. This video was a cheap stunt by a disgruntled player that got beat one too many times. The one thing I've learned from playing my Rogue is that you can never always win against a class. Warlocks are pretty weak but I've been beaten many times. Warriors are my hardest match up but I've had a few good fights where I've squeezed out a win.
Besides, Blizz said this a long time ago. WoW was never balanced around 1v1 PvP. It was balanced around group PvP. Class A isn't supposed to have a 50% win rate against Class B. However, two balanced and equally skilled groups should. Of course, despite their position on this Rogues seem to be made more for 1v1 PvP or at least small scale PvP. I couldn't stand AV so I elected to wait in line for WSG for hours instead of getting pwned by mass AOE and Reaper-weilding Warriors with Priest heal-slaves in tow. WSG is more of a tactical game where stealth and surprise can be game-changing. That seems more fun than suiciding so I can maybe kill a squishie.
Sorry that was so fragmented and long.
