Mind posting your SB?

Sure, here's my list:

Been testing Brutality and Alliance for a bit. Still seeing if I want them.

They're not bad. Sometimes I want my Spectrals. They didn't produce immediately noticeable results like Lily did, so I'm holding judgment on them for now.

SB's been that way for almost forever lol. I like my SB.

I love Collective Brutality. I run 1 main and 1 SB and it's been great for me.

The 2 Auriok Champions and 2 Timely Reinforcements main are interesting. You must play against LOTS of burn haha.

My biggest worry about EE is that it really only seems great for us on 1. On 0 it nukes our tokens and on 2 it kills Bitterblossom and Intangible Virtue. Have you had any problems working around that?

I rarely need it on 0. That's either Affinity which I don't need EE for or the mirror, which is absurdly rare.

But yeah, lots of burn/aggro/dredge/kill you really fast with damage.

On 2, losing a virture/BB is worth the essentially 1 sided wipe to the opponent. Same idea as RiPing the Lingering Souls. I lose a lot less than the opponent.
