I wonder how viable an all-offense 'Ginsu the Damned' approach (e.g. Nataraja casting Curse and Astral Weapon, then using a ridiculous number of attacks to maim the enemy into a blind, crippled, feebleminded mute) would do; it'd be readily countered by regen, I think, but would perhaps be amusing anyway.

That's a good approach, but maiming is not necessary. With few life draining weapons he will fatigue anything non-lifeless. And lifeless SC has many other problems. Regeneration is not likely to help either (maybe, except some super-Tartarian with 2 regen items and casting personal regeneration). However, very high defense will counter such Nataraja. Damaging shields and high attack/high damage can counter Nataraja too.
The ultimate gamble I think is Gifts from Heaven. You can score the hit across the field and even one hit is an instant death for most SC. The problem is that even with precision in 30s it doesn't hit reliably. The win/lose ratio is pretty good, but not enough to win against several SC in a row.
Funny style is to take nature loving tartarian with MR penetration items and script on attack, Charm x 4. If it succeeds, you'll have 2 SC in the next battle, increasing the chances to charm another SC. After couple of successul charms it will become virtually unstoppable

I think that in term of chances this plan may be the best overall, but it's either win a contest or lose immediately.
