Heh, it's not going to do well in arena.
it might, gonna need a good destro lock to do it... but outside of 2v2 or utility i def agree (although going 16-3-42 will prob be better)
but arena isnt the concept here, this will make things interesting :) all 1v1 fights make for some serious fun... and with prep it has good 1vsN potential

5/5 MoD > combat. 1v1 invis wise. Opener is freekin everything.
my full combat can recover from a 41-0-20 muti rogue easily, its all about knowing when to trinket, or doing a item trick (oil of immolation <3)
basically a opener can be countered by ghostly strike/riposte if they didnt chain/getting a CD off if they lapse
combat has riposte often, INC disarm change makes daggers lose to combat, for sures, at least 1-1 ratio

And mongoose, your spec won't cut it on well geared arena opponents I can almost guarantee it. Mutilate has a hard enough time cutting through resilience, Shadowstep is slightly stronger but on a 40 second cooldown. Not to mention it also lacks the CP generation and control. Sure you may be able to out CD someone in your first duel or what not, but in a "best over time" match I'm afraid you'll fall by the way side.
me as ar/prep never has to prep in duels, i got a lot of CD control, sure i got em all to use... but i shouldnt hafta burn EVERYTHING in 1 fight unless its a top fighter on my server
but if thats the case, they would too... and arena rules dueling is the way to do it.... if you couldnt cut it when i got it all to use, then it isnt a win in my book..... they made arena CD rules for a reason :)

ar/prep, without dirty deeds, ghostly strike, riposte or hemo? that will not beat me
my build is so anti melee its ridiculous, warrior is the threat, not a ****** mirror match rogue
they ar, i ghostly strike and evasion.... what are they gonna do, shiv me to death every 1.5 seconds? and 1 good riposte gives me time to stunlock thru the AR, no immune = 3 second openings for sure... non dagger doesnt have the burst ar/prep trys to bring to the table
its a good build to use, but thats not the version id be worried about
http://wowhead.com/?talent=fheboxgobZZxMe0MGRoxo
the hell? stunlock hemo... no imp ks? no imp EA? again no ghostly strike
same deal as your ar/prep linked, but even more glaring... our builds do the same thing, except i got more dodge and i can break into stunlock via riposte->gouge
