We still have hope about construct warbeasts, which might give us arcnode.

I don't see him as THAT fragile. Hydra helped immensely, expecially on his feat turn. Also, we will probably have free Aptimus with themes, so it's easy to cast mortality without risking death. The problem I had was more of incompatible matchups than everything else. SPD7 also help him stay safe and expose only after feat turn (during feat he's almost always def18 with sandstorm). It's more manageable than people think (he's also effectively 7 fury). My opinion is that he's really really strong (all his spells are above average and feat is huge), but you have to live on the edge but he's far from not playable, a free Marketh is all he needs

As i can see people think that Morghoul2 is a better version of Xekaar - he also have good feat, also have mortality, and he is steady which helps. I know that Xekaar feat do other things, but in general their plan for a game seems identical - stay forward, support army with spells, etc

Morghoul2 can also kill things dead really good and Shadow Play is great. Shame about Psychosurgery, but that's just not worth it.

Morg2 is only good at 1 thing, assassinations... or well 2, threat of assassination should be in there as well. His feat is giving everything blind... face off against everblight and tell me he has a good feat x.x; Probably the best thing about Xekaar is the fact that he's both a beast caster AND has 31 beast points x.x he can almost cover all of the hydra's beast points without even touching the list points. It's only after taking that into account that you can start thinking of others. Taking a hydra with Morg2 in comparison to taking a hydra with Xekaar, Xekaar wins hands down. How could you possibly not want your shaman free? Hell, it covers the Cyclops brute for shield guard. You can also use those extra points for filling out a unit or promoting one of your heavies to a character beast! Thanks for the free Tibs upgrade! On the other hand, Morg2 is suppose to be ran with cheaper, offensive styled beasts to penetrate the front lines and give Morg2 his assassination lane. Now that he has his balls back and such a high MAT, he'll succeed over 75% of the time that you can get him there on the charge.

Morghoul2 doesn't assassinate, that's what incorporeal beasts are for.
