And once the killy machine dies, all its items fall into the hands of the enemy. Ensure that your uber sc works like a combat powerhouse, not an assasin (cost effectivness) or a lame duck. Best way? use simple units with simple items. Granted, I'm not exactly the worlds most brilliant Dominons player, so if someone wants to correct me, go ahead. Do not expect me to take your word as gospel though.

Vociferously agreed. Particularly when the SC in question is undead. They might be a bargain under most circumstances, but they have too many Achilles' heels to be the lynchpin of anyone's strategy.

Mind you, if you're going to bring high-end unique artifacts to the field, you'd do well to stick them on the most survivable chassis you can afford. But there's still some distance between that and putting all your eggs in one Wished-for basket.

Then again, by the non-blitz endgame, everyone has 999 astral pealrs to spend, so why not sink 'em into a few dozen ettin mandragoras?
