NOT L33T: Best of the Rest event!

So, there is all these warcasters running around who are supposed to be uber, but almost never turn up to fights. What do they do? Stay home and drink lattes and eat pumpkin scones? Well, not anymore! While all the A and B team members are off killing the world, the C team got a call up! Now they have a chance to prove that THEY are the... Best of the Rest!

33 points. 1 list.
Restricted warlock/casters. Restricted solo selection. (See below).

Ok, above is locked in. Good luck!

I admit there may be some hidden gems here and some choices that could be different, but above is what it is, after much (thank you) input here and elsewhere.

If we get good attendance, I'll run something similiar again (maybe with different types of restrictions).

Looking forward to seeing scarcely used units/casters on the field!
