Combo Cahir+Roach+Calveit(Mandrake)+(some other cards) in one turn R3
Does anybody else think that it is too consistent and strong combo in already good deck? My reasoning below.
Non interactivity
You can deny it only by mandraking Calveit if:
1) Calveit do not Mandraked on turn he played
2) Mandrake fits in your deck
3) You draw mandrake or tutor card
If you just kill him(and there is litte to no competitive 5pt removal) then mandrake will just go to roach
Power level
1+ 4 +11 + some other card from 3 of a choice. And weakest possible scenario is thier common bronze for 10-14pts ~26-30. So minimal output is better than Ciri Nova and Shupe Warrior while not having their cons. Maximum that I have seen was about 45 (Vilgefortz/some + bronze cards chain).
Drawbacks
I fail to see them. Multiple bodies with different values on different rows. Early commitment to low tempo Assire and Mandrake? No problem with crazy tempo SD, WV and Novice. Besides, Assire often pulled by Joachim, while Vesemir is followed by Roach.
