I love both W5E's and lankan kumas and mic-jags. But both your post and micah's post are a little simplistic.
W5E's benefit more than mic jags do from a S blessing as they are more fragile. So a heads up comparison of an F9S9 blessing mics v jags will give skewed results.
Jags have mediocre attack and defense numbers, and have the ability to survive a hit based on on their were form. In fact, their were form is de-rigeur to really get the maximum advantage from the f9 bless (three attacks vs one).
A few other factors: W5E's are very, very susceptible to archer fire. And finally, the key to beating W5E's is killing them first.
You don't use the same tools on every problem. Mictlan will probably be using eagles not jag's agaist the W5E's. Set them far back Hold and attack, and with a priest set to Bless, bless, whatever.
This allows the eagles to get the first hit, offense or defense.
And if you are doing equal GPs, (iirc 15 vs 35?) 10 eagles and a priest vs 5 M5E's and a priest should win 19/20.
Even if you *don't* do it on a gp basis - M5E's are cap only and do not scale.
