    @ Pandevmonium: I disagree with the FTA comment. You're right in that a buff to Sword Thief would obviously make Rogues stronger going first, but more importantly it would also make them a lot stronger going second. At the moment, Rogues have a very hard time taking board control going second (especially against heroes with access to direct damage). Sword Thief to 2/4 would give a Rogue a chance to start taking out his opponent's weenies before he takes too much damage. As it stands, Sword Thief is incapable of this and is barely viable as a T3 drop; he's much better late game.

    I agree with the people saying that we're still in the beta, and we have nothing to lose by changing him. If Rogues suddenly dominate everything, we can change him back.
    When I was in closed beta, Garth and sword thief hadn't been nerfed yet, Garth dominated the game. Almost all players who were in the top rating played Garth at least for a while. That's the main reason they climbed up so high. We do need to prove a thing we've already proved

    Yeah, because Garth's ability was too good. It's fine how it is now, but Sword Thief isn't.
