Deep Sublety viable for PvP anymore?

Nowadays, everyone seems to say mutilate or nothing. Now, i realize that mutilate is efficient(I play pve and pvp mut), but sublety seems more "tactical" or "fun". So, i was wondering if deep sublety is even viable anymore.

It is definately alot harder, but I feel this is the only spec that is truly "rogue-ish". I haven't tried the arena yet, but I love PVE and world PVP with my Shadowdance rogue. Most people play rogues now as warriors with a little stealth, and I think it defeats the purpose. Having Shadowdance AND vigor (like Kalimist, and I) makes for awesome bursts. I sap, you trinket, I cheap shot, backstab, hemo, run in front of you and gouge, pool energy, kidney shot, thistle tea, shadowdance, cheap shot, ambush, ambush, and if you aren't dead yet, I can shoose to fight out the rest, blind you, or just vanish and stalk you.

While people do say that, it's cause it is the current spec that has proven itself to be very reliable. I was Shadowdance Spec for awhile but stopped pvping, and I found it to be really fun. Though don't go into it thinking you'll be able faceroll people because it does take some practice to really get the hang of it.

I agree with full Sub spec for PVP.I mean "Sub" is the only talent that makes a Rogue a real "Rogue".A few reasons:
1
.Master of Deception
:makes u to get an opener easier
2
.Premeditation
:2 Combo Points for nothing.Sweet
3
.Preparation
:Use this in case u didn't get enough of Shadowstep and stuff(u can even get 4 combo points from Prem with this)
4.Shadowstep
:a piece du resistance for the rogue.This will help u get an Ambush or Backstab way easier.
5.
Shadowdance
.The Ace of Spades.When activated u're poor victim should know that u're gonna Ambush him till' u beat the hell out of him.
Here's a tactic with SHD:
SHD-Prem-Sap-Garrote(if caster if not,cheap shot)-Shiv-Blind-Kidney Shot-Ambush-Sap-Ambush-Sap then Thistle Tea and again with Sap-Ambush till' he dies.

Erm... no?
"Only works on Humanoids, Beasts, Demons and Dragonkin that are not in combat."
I'm pretty sure that you stabbing someone in the back puts them into combat.

I sap, you trinket,
Anyone who trinkets sap should be handed their asses to them by any rogue. That's just a fail.
(Apart from rare occasions where there's desperate gamble going on)
Ya it's somewhat useful to trinket out of sap in arenas if you're needed to do "something" that very moment and can't wait for Sap to run out.
