Really? I thought Zaal1 got left in MK2 (with his glorious theme) because jacks got too cheap. That was exactly the thing. The math just got terrible (and it is math, Zaal1 model removal tending to be transactional thing). Then even worse. I actually stopped bringing him to tournaments entirely, instead of just bringing him and not playing him. Enough free points to fit in an entire extra unit takes him back over the hump, from initial performance. What's your list/pairing?

Enough free points to fit in an entire extra unit takes him back over the hump, from initial performance. What's your list/pairing? The last pre-Exalted Zaal1 list I did things with: "Animal Faire" Zaal1 + Kovaas Aradus Soldier Titan Cannoneer Cyclops Shaman Ancestral Guardian x2 Hakaar the Destroyer max Immortals w/ UA x2 min Beast Handlers It's not a bad list (specifically, Last Stand Soldier under feat is an anti-jack prodigy). But it didn't deal with 'jack spam (actual 'jack spam, not "a large quantity of warjacks"- that it trounced) any better than anything else I could play. If anything it crippled itself trying to climb over it. The most recent Exalted Zaal1 list I've played (definitely not final, maybe) "The Host" Zaal1 + Kovaas Titan Cannoneer Basilisk Krea Cyclops Shaman Ancestral Guardian x3 Hakaar the Destroyer max Immortals w/ UA x3 max Beast Handlers While Zaal1 was benched I was playing a Hexeris2 battlegroup gunline (and awkwardly using Zaal2 to fight 'jack spam), which they went and handed out a theme to, which was nice.
