Guess I should have touched on the Pandora posts that were going around as well. If you read the above you get a sense of the quickness to Izamu, in a Yan Lo list. I played against pandora and won horribly. Again, the secret comes from the recurssion. What the pushing and walking allows is for you to get right in the face of the sorrows and what not and more times than not you kill them in one hit. Pandora only doing wounds is better then all the linked guys helping to do 3-4 wounds for each WP dual lost. Izamu shines because like said he one hit kills the support, and comes back to do it again. Pandora doesnt care how big you are because they are all single wounds from each source, so when you loose a WP dual pandora hits you for one, the sorrow hits you for one,ect. so they are different sources, IE object 2 doesnt matter. BUT izamu doesnt care, because as long as he killed one support piece, it makes him live that much longer when he comes back as starts all over.
I have stopped the dreamer from running around the board, backed him into a corner on turn 3. I have murdered colladi, reposte is so disgusting (and yes, you get to heal on severe reposte damage) resummoning of izamu obliterates pandora.
Again, I stand firm in. . . kill the corpse counters, and thats about it.
