Hamgodx - Too many personal kills... it seems like I can bait him to irrelevant places easily when he should be taking out our FC. With that being said, he does still do a great job to complete objectives and can hang up mid quite nicely.

Iggzxo - I've never seen this person not playing for the charts / random kills in mid. Merely a name from the charts and does not back up any perceived recognition with any objective gameplay / picks / saps.

Menisi - One of the better rogues on this poll. Knows the value of sap and doesn't play for the charts. Decent all around. May not be the most potent / deadly rogue... but definitely a solid rogue to have.

Save - Decent in arena but I don't see much in the gulch from him.

Saxxon - Knows how to sap in the gulch which immediately singles him out from the crowd in this poll as it's by far the most game changing thing a rogue can do. 90% of people in the community have 0 clue about positioning / cross sapping and just go for mid kbs.

I guess Kushmocommonkueken or w/e is Moran so I'd put him at #2 . I haven't seen much that's been incredibly amazing from him, but I've seen enough of him in PUGs to know that he's much better than most of the rogues queueing these days.

These are the only people whom I know on this poll... I've been playing rogue longer than most people have so I really know what to look for when it comes to displaying skill these days. if I were to rank them based on one's skill in WSG, they'd be ranked as follows.

1) Saxxon
2) Komokonukemmohommadknoken
3) Hamgodx
4) Menisi
5) Save
6) Iggzxo
 
My vote is for Kushkumen, because of his plays in Warsong Gulch and his willingness to fight the good fight. Not many people have the balls to start up an LGBT armory thread on a fairly homophobic message board.

#StandWithMoran
#StandWithMitch
 
Moran & Saxx are definitely the top 2 rogues in the bracket currently

I don't think any of the other people on the poll are anywhere near their level of objective play atm
 
I don't usually post on threads like these, BUT I will say this:

Straight up, Gankerixer is the best rogue at 19 period, without question. Whether it be WSG or arena it doesn't matter. The part about him talking shit is a bit weird too because he is the complete opposite of that. He and I are pretty modest which is why I'm sure he doesn't get the popularity votes that someone like Saxxon gets. Not talking down about any of the other rogues; I think that Gankerixer and Saxxon are a step above the rest but, this thread is a popularity contest, not one for best rogue.
 
cant be too much of a popularity contest when bigmoran is 2nd lmao

not everyone is sold on him but at least they arent ignorant enough to deny the fact hes a really good rog

I doubt bragging about your skill and being a douche will get you any votes in these kinds of threads... Also I've never seen any arogant behaviour from Saxx, he seems like a laid back, down to earth chill guy

Yea agreed, I also haven't said anyone is arrogant, rather I think highly of Saxx.. I've played against him alot lately. I'm just saying that without question Gankerixer does not get the credit he deserves.

Gankerixer is bad, I get him out with Arcane Explosion all the time. Sorry to say but you're wrong :(
 
Obviously Saxx is the Goat and was winning this poll from the outset. Dude is the king of arenas and makes incredible plays in WSG too. As a healer I can actually get a good idea of ally rogue skill level - how easily I can fake-cast them, how objectively they play, saps, etc. I have to say that Gankerixer has by far impressed me the most on the alliance side of the field. Hard as fuck to fake cast him, focus-kicks me while beating down FC, objective focus. Anyway had to make the obligatory Saxx vote for the main homie, but Gank is a close second.
 
I'm honored to be recognized along with all of these other skilled people. I've had the privilege of playing with quite a few of them, and from what I can tell they all deserve to be on this list. I've been MIA all through CATA up to MOP, just recently poked my head back into the bracket the last few months. I still have quite a lot to catch up on and hopefully I continue to improve. Once again, I appreciate the recognition! Happy twinking! :D
