Bodiless

I realize this model isn't even out yet, but I would love a cat-themed Benny Wolcomb. Maybe do the usual gender swap and have Betty Wolcomb?

Titania can protect him from being targeted, give access to extra healing and movement, bring targets into Flurry range, and can trigger Smell Fear by forcing a large number of Wp checks.

There are definitely pools where I would take Cherub over Primordial. I like Cherub in Squatters, for example. I'll often have Cherub following Nekima down a flank to pick up the markers there as a zero, letting her spend all of her AP murdering whatever my opponent sent to get that marker. Plus handing out slow to further hamper their efforts. Edit: This is getting a bit far afield from Titania though, so suffice to say that while there are plenty of masters where I do regularly take the specific totem rather than Primordial I don't think Titania will turn out to be one.

I find that I actually get a fair amount of use out of Nullify when I see models start wandering onto my side of the board. If nothing else my opponent's response to having something Nullified tells me a fair amount about what they are trying to accomplish.

That's pretty much what I was going to say. For a real cost of +1ss and the opportunity cost of not having the PM... I just don't see it.

Casey is hella-good. No shame there.

I used it once and put it away. You are probably bringing back a 7ss minion, so you are looking at a net of 4ss. Sort of, since it dictates the positioning of the model coming back and it comes back slow and counts as an entirely new model (so not eligible for Public Demonstration and the like). That's if you manage to make it work at all and it doesn't just die from loitering around the board center. Very hard for me to see taking it over Primordial.

Got another game in with Titania last night, this time against Parker. Unlike previous games I took no other models from her crew box. Strategy was Guard the Stash, and I took Nekima, Doppelganger, Tuco, Primoridial, and two Waldgeists. The crew worked surprisingly well. The Waldgeists camped one objective, Tuco lurked behind some terrain dropping Leave Your Mark, and the other three swung around the other stash marker. Titania had Aether Connection, Audience, and Behold My Glory, a full cache, and had a rockstar game. Turn 1 Mad Dog strayed a little too close (my opponent didn't really realize what Audience did) and got dropped into base to base and then charged by Nekima. Dead dog. Turn 2 she activated first, tagged Parker with Behold, moved around behind the stash marker, then pulled in a dead outlaw. Parker took a couple of shots at Nekima, who was out in the open after killing Mad Dog, but could only afford two shots at her due to Glory and I stoned most of the damage away. In the meantime the rest of his crew was not set up to deal with armor and spent a ton of AP slowly chipping away at the Waldgeists. Titania + Nekima is a very potent combination. Titania can bring targets in for her to hit without Nekima moving to a vulnerable position, and can really mitigate the damage she takes back. It was a very tanky crew in general, and hugely tanky for Neverborn. I also had good cards and awesome damage prevention flips, so you can only take so much away from one game. But in my previous games I felt like I really wasn't sure what I was trying to accomplish with Titania when she activated, and that her activations did not really strike the same level of fear into my opponent as other Neverborn masters. That was definitely not the case last night - the threat of dropping his models in front of Nekima turned large swaths of the board into a no-go zone. I also got some key use out of her zero to push a model when I needed to shuffle a model 2" to get it into scoring range. All in all a very solid outing for her against a very good opponent.

Are Wave 4 models legal for this?

Since you have the starter models I would drop Barbaros for two Bloodwretches here. Wretches hit reasonably hard, and would get you up to 8 models which will help with activation control. Also, just as an FYI to you and the OP, I think beater Lilith is probably her least effective incarnation. I get a lot more use out of Traffic Cop Lilith, where I park her somewhere close to the center of the board behind her trees and have her decide who gets to move and where they go. I very rarely use Tangle Shadows against opposing models, unless I have a really high mask in hand and I see something exposed that I can grab. Usually I use Tangle to cycle beaters onto a target or sacrifice a tot to get one of my key pieces out of a bad spot.

Titania can fly. Shouldn't that have prevented the falling damage?

What crews and combos have worked out well for you so far?

I do really like Audience on paper, although I didn't use it in my one game. I'm glad to hear you seem to be having success with Titania - I really want her to be good.

I think Taproot will prove to be a very powerful upgrade. It didn't really show to its full effect in my game against Reva because Reva could choose to target Wp and avoid the built-in trigger on Df for the Knights.

I think her upgrade that makes you attack her or dump two cards is critical to making people deal with her. Especially in you can combo in Wrath or another model that punishes you for not attacking it. And to be fair with two markers near the target to discard she has min damage 4 on her cast. I don't see the connection to Ressers either, particularly given the lack of any kind of summoning, but I don't play Ressers so I'm interested in hearing the argument for it.
