She can have a blank ability card and still be a massive buff to Jaws as a free journeyman solo along with Malakov.

I cant wait to try her with WGk/OW1. She gives OW's jacks a huge threat range and gives OW semi permanent stealth. Winterguard with ironflesh and concealment? Def 14 Arm 15, no blast damage, no knockdown! Oh that is some GOOD jank. BC on Scrappy (or witch herself) to start the mulch machine.

Yeah but the only caster I see myself picking out of theme nowadays is Sorscha1. Can I introduce you to my friend Butcher1?

In a stacked Jaws list, you could take both Malakov 1 and Sorscha 0 free in the theme? OMFG - if you’ve been using 2 Forge Seers as focus bots why not just bring two Journeymen instead? That seems hella good. I’ve been really, really down on Jaws but being able to put these two Journeymen into Jaws and not have Jaws feeling “good” with just a few casters is really cool. I’m also seeing Sorscha 0 in WGK. She counts towards free points, folks, and that theme is somewhat starved for good solos. Mikey like it. There’s a weird No Sleeping on the Job synergy there for Strakhov 2 and Irusk 2 (but with the later only when he’s not upkeeping Solid Ground) and a frigging bonkers synergy with Kovnik Freaking Joe. I’m seeing it now. Joe: “Tough it out, you loggygagging sons o troll whelps!” Sorscha: “Get back up, soldier, before I freeze your arse where it’s sitting!”

So... Strak 1, Malakov 1, Kratikoff 0 means stacking 3 speed buffs on 2 jacks, not even counting Overrun? I mean, that's a lot of points and it might not really be practical, but still: this game might be getting a bit silly.

I think the Juggernauts should wear the 13 point price tag, as it is likely to happen after CID.
