my initial thought was that this JOAT was weaker than the Cop in [Cop, 6VT vs Goons] and that lazy watcher worked to make up for it. but it's entirely possible that evaluation undervalues both PRs.

[Micc]

Seems like the JOAT should go away and not the Lazy Watcher.

(as the JOAT is likely to be a nightkill magnet if it claims, and everyone knows it).

Trying to think of something weaker to substitute in that wouldn't have this problem. One Shot Bulletproof is the thing that comes to mind, but it doesn't feel super interesting or fun to play.

Had a pretty hellish week at work. I'm here, but kinda reconsidering if now is the right time for me to host a blitz. I'll come back here and start thinking about setup again once i catchup on other commitments.

going to the queue thread to /out right now. Thanks everyone for your time and patience but I can't mod this game right now.
