hi fellow ressers, i finally start painting my pirate molly crew, and it's amazing. but i know nothing about molly crew. i heard ar'rrr'chie was a must-take but then it was nerfed.

so, after the update, is there any change in molly's tactics and strategies? crew members, and etc. is appreciated

thank you so much

I've only played her a few times, and not since the nerf, so I can't speak with any authority.

But one thing I can say, and I've seen it expressed by others as well, is that I struggled to get good value out of Philip and the Nanny.  I'm not saying the model is bad, but it was challenging for me to use.

IIRC she's been like that since the beginning. is there no change at all post-update?

The change to Archie was only a slight change and one that was needed (IMO) - he isn't quite doing everything with ease and it has also given him some utility that he didn't have previously (a route around serene countenance and highest authority).

I think where some thoughts of Molly losing power or being a less viable choice is because of the move from Gaining Grounds Season 0 to Season 1, in GG0 her keyword excelled in strategies that favoured speed (plant explosives and even turf war for example). GG1 has less of a focus on this which potentially drops her down a notch but in most instances her keyword still has a lot of play.

Take recover evidence for example, a lot dislike taking cheap models in this strategy because they become the evidence targets but a crooligan still have exceptional movement to continually stay out of reach if your positioning is good. A lot of the models in her crew can be reasonably durable also.

Corrupted Ley Lines does hamper the traditional Forgotten list because you don't want to be placing, again there are options to take here but it means deviating from the traditional GGo lists.

Molly herself is a very flexible leader and you can build her keyword well into all of the strategies pretty well IMO.

Hope that helps :)
