I think you're really understating how drastic the keleseth downside is.
Having only a single 2 drop means 75% of your games you're missing your turn 2. That's huge. The only way to compensate is to have extremely strong 1/3 drops and hero power. Rogue has both, so it best utilizes the downside.
I think a good experiment for some of you would be to create a keleseth deck in arena - I've done it, it's awful.
