Reckful was the only rogue on the list who has to take tuskars vitality for movement speed as he plays combatandshadow dance. Kalimist is still using nitro boost for the crit ratings (not a min or max guy I see to get aika gold, although it will be fine next patch), two of the heroes took 16 agility, and the other six took ice walker for hit ratings. I personally rather take 32 AP on boots, and use 16 AP 8 hit ratings to get my 5% hit, so I get to keep the socket bonus. Many of the rogue heroes went 32 AP regardless of socket color so they need the aika money here.
With Reckful kuns 5 or 54 or 12, cheap shot to > fan of knives is usually enough to proc crippling poison on the target (I have the glyph for 75%) AND get the dual trinket procs, weapon to swap for double wound or 2.6 weapon killing spree; finish with another double wound fan of knives all with the +2000 attack power buff, it is a lot of damage for item level 200 trinkets. I personally always prefer old to school, open ground style to get cheap aika gold, as it takes map advantages out of the equation. But it can make for some very annoying situations like a rogue vanishing or restealthing to reset CDs over and over.
