Still pretty new to legion but looking where to focus my limited time to test for tournaments. Am I about right on my list of the 5 best casters for tournament play atm? (I know its all subjective but it helps me concentrate my efforts)
5. Absolonia 2 (oracles) 4. Vayl 2 3. Thagrosh 1 (oracles) 2. lylyth 3 1. fyanna 2 (oracles)
what are your top 5 and why?

Those seem to be the trend. Though I'm sure some more information will be surfacing for Kallus 2.
If I gave you my top five you'd think someone screwed my head on wrong. but I don't play legit PP tournaments. Just local stuff.

I feel thags1 with azrael is very powerful. Powerful to the point where you might forego the theme for him. As an initial engagement piece he can half kill most heavies by himself, if not 2/3rds.
My tops 5
1. Fyanna2 2. Lylyth3 3. Abby2 4. Vayl2

I feel like a "top 5" is mostly relevant to a main-list and less relevant to an off-list, because our top contenders can handle a lot of matchups, themselves, and you kind of fill in the other list based on what you anticipate seeing. I'd put my top main-listers at: - Vayl2 (not vs anti-magic/unassassinatable/bricks)
- Fyanna2 (not vs auto-hitting)
- Abyslonia2 (not vs high-value shooting/control)
- Lylyth3 (not vs bricks/shield guard/sac pawn)
- Twins (not vs high-value shooting/auto-hitting)
My primary off-listers: - Lylyth1 (not vs bricks w/ anti-magic)
- Thagrosh1 (not vs high-value shooting/RFP/control)
- Kallus2 (not vs bricks/unassassinatable)
- Bethayne (honestly still a bit lost here... but there's something, maybe)
I really want to like Vayl1, Lylyth2, and Thagrosh2, because I played them a lot in MK2, but nothing is sticking. Absylonia1, Kallus1, Kryssa, Rhyas1, and Saeryn1, either don't fit what I want to play (Kallus1), seem woefully underwhelming (Saeryn1), have major design issues (Absylonia1/Saeryn1), or some combination of those and other things.

Vayl2, Fyanna, Lylyth3, and Abby2, I get, but what does Thags1 have currently that makes him a strong pick?

Vayl2, Fyanna, Lylyth3, and Abby2, I get, but what does Thags1 have currently that makes him a strong pick? A STR buff, a STR debuff aura, Fog of War and a Feat that lets him replace warbeasts worth up to 24 points. I've seen people move Azrael up to toss a couple POW19 spears, lose him and then Feat him back. Also any beast that can increase its own survivability like Proteus (Unyielding), Carnivean (Spiny Growth) or Typhon become hell to remove due to Death Shroud and Fog of War.
