Of course, the fact reason is Neilyo-kun never had any real success with burst-oriented comps like RMP, his playing style is based on finesse and prefers slow cooker comps like rogue/affliction lock/druid and rogue/druid in TBC. Yog rogue/lock/shaman was stuck at 2600s, farmed by Reckful about
power leveling. They brought in Serration (he was owned in Neilyo 14.5, I guess you really can not judge players by PVP videos), and bam, they hit 3000. It was the exact same thing that happened to Pookz who needed Enforcer to reach the very top to get more
power leveling. There is at least a dozen quality rogues in every BG and Neilyo-kun is certainly one of them, but finding a rogue who can bring you a championship is another story altogether. There is Serration, helping his team beating SK-US as destruction, something that was not supposed to work against top RMPs. Rogues like that just do not grow on trees about
power leveling .
Featuring two of our finest rogue heroes in two completely different comps after seeing two 3000 teams, is a rogue of Reckful/Serrations caliber the most valuable player in the game today? It is certainly not far stretched. In his first ever skirmish with Venruki/Sodah, Reckful took that team on his shoulders and went 50-50 against SK-US, a team with far more time together. And Reckful allowed Sodah/Venruki to beat TSG for the first time ever in a skirmish to get more
power leveling.
I absolutely believe Reckful plays a stronger comp overall in rogue/ret/priest than Serrations rogue/lock/shaman. While Serennia-sama had tremendous success with Serration early in the season as rogue/DK/priest about
power leveling, Ret is just better for this comp with his amazing defensive utilities. With BOP, freedom, and sacrifice it is so much harder to kill the priest, and hammer of justice repentance offers CCs the healer actually has to trinket, which leads to blinds and fears.
