Kidney shott is a 6 seconds duration undispellable uninterruptible instant ranged stun that has a shorter cooldown than the diminishing return on the stun itself

Can we seriously buff rogues you guys? It isn’t funny anymore, these rogues are out here struggling having to juggle their stun dr’s while stupid warriors dont have to care about their stun dr because they have stormbolt which is op because its on a 30s cd…
Honestly blizzard rogues have feelings too. Please buff kidney shot to a 30s cd.

That happened to me at 1900 and I thought that was bad lmao. : (
Honestly, they should just bake shadowstep right into kidney shot. 
Just the fact that you’re saying you faced a rogue like this at 2800 says less about the rogue, and more about the state of PVP in this game.

kidney shot makes qing into rogue healer in 2s sooooo annoying as a caster, between their 6 sec stun and 6 sec kick on such low cds, feels like u only get to actually do anything for like 50% of the game
Gotta be on that rogue alt to run the point home harder lol
yeah im surprised assass didn’t receive any nerfs. It feels like their toolkit avoided any type of pruning that everyone else has gone through. Their mobility is insane, btw. Assass doesn’t even need shadowstep, they just use it for free essentially ranged kidneys as OP said. Idk feels like this class has truly every tool. inb4 'bUt wERE sqUishY THo"
bro watch it they might actually do that thinking its a nerf to rogues

I agree for 2’s.
Assassination with full gush and 475ilvl is FREE rating. Even more so than destro. You can screw up destro cc combos and be bad at chasing ppl around pillars trying to LoS you but rogues just use kidney and vendetta on cd and WIN with little thought required.
I don’t really see kidney as a problem as much as internal bleeding, which shouldn’t be a thing. Choosing to dump your resources for a stun should not do damage as well. There should be a tradeoff.
I have the same gripe with crimson vial just not having enough cost to use (compared to the old recuperate).

I dont think it is worth it to start pointing out how rogues just passively do all their functions without pressing buttons, because they basically are broken if want to compare to anything else in this game.
I swear they just waddle around in the arena pretending to not be afk until kidney dr is back and they go for this kill. each and every frkn kidney shott being a god damn kill opportunity

I noticed that a lot during skirms week. Rogue pretending to be afk in the starting area then 30 seconds into the fight night elf front flip -> kidney/smokebomb/250k passive gushing/target dead -> jump jump waddle waddle left -> jump jump waddle waddle right -> vanish -> everybody clapped.
