Not sure about bigger but yes, that could also use some attention. Since this board seems to have pretty consistent opposing Groups on balance issues(Old Boys Network vs. everyone else), though, it seems unlikely that they will be able to come to much of an agreement on several pretenders.

If the VQ were eliminated, everyone would simply pick the next closest cousin: the GK

I agree that there might be a next most popular one(possibly) but I don't think it would be the GK. But even if it was, that isn't a valid argument on why the VQ might not be popular because she is over-powered. You could make the VQ clearly over-powered, say make her cost 0, 500 hp, and kills all units on sight. In this case, if you removed her, everyone would still choose the next most popular option.

I don't think that's true at all. It allows you to make decisions that would be bad for a non-immortal pretender but become good for an immortal pretender. Immortality isn't just a side-note, it's a major factor. And even if you don't die, the recuperative effects are still useful.
