Hey everybody. I don't get to play the game much lately due to life getting in the way but I'm planning on doing a Steamroller later this month and was looking for some input for what to run with my Abby2 Oracles list.
The Abby list stands currently at:
Absylonia, Daughter of Everblight +28 Succubus 0(4) -Proteus 19 -Carnivean 19 -Scythean 18 -Seraph 14 -Neraph 12 -Naga Nightlurker 8
Forsaken 0 (4) Forsaken 0 (4) Spell Martyr 1 Spell Martyr 1 Shepherd 1 Shepherd 1
Blackfrost Shard 9
At the moment I'm leaning towards Thags1 for my second list, but also have Lylyth1 & 2, Fyanna2, Rhyas1, Abby1 and Thags2 if anyone has any great recommendations for them. I've got a good stable of beasts and a decent selection of nyss and ogrun infantry so any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks!

It looks like what you'll most want to consider pairing with that Absylonia2 list is something that can take on infantry swarms.
Absylonia1 and Thagrosh2 don't do that particularly well, so you can probably leave them out.
Rhyas1 has a pretty similar all-in melee thing going on as Absylonia2, so it might be good to diversify a bit in the second list.
Thagrosh1 and Fyanna2 largely address infantry defensively, although they both have some tools to take an offensive strike.
Lylyth1/2 are very offensively-oriented, and can support higher volume of ranged fire, with Lylyth2 bringing more shots and Lylyth1 putting out higher accuracy.
All that said, if you know the popular things in your meta that can go a long way, otherwise I'd go with whatever sounds most interesting.

Go fyanna trip neraph, double angel, get a throne or alternatly naga and bloodseer. Run her in oracles.
Personally i like this for abby 2:
Abby 2 oracles wb28 Proteus 19 Carnivean 19 Scythean 18 Seraph 14 Bloodseer 8 Raek 8 or naga 8 Raek 8 Raek 8 Martyr 1 Sorceressx2 free Forsakenx2 free
Raeks hit like calvary under feat, extended control, mulch infantry, contest well, and trade well. Bloodseer grants 3rd slipstream or wraithbane. Only thing i dont like is 1 martyr. I may swap scythean for angelius to fit 1 more in. Alot of players like succubus onstead of 2nd sorceress but i love the spray, roadblock, and wind ravager.

Rhyas1 with the Warmongers does terrifying things to infantry swarms.
