Which champions are used for equipment removal now days, is it still elven blademaster or is it somebody else?
And Vashal Ranger would be my second choice. Guardian of the Circle exists, but I feel bad about myself when I run him..
Due to how many maps in Ranked Play are largely Vegetation, a hidden Ambling Frond is a good side-font grabber. It is a just a bonus that he remains in play to shatter equips and contest other fonts.
he really is worth a look... cheap option for shatter if thats all you need at some points. But you can double deploy first turn given your second champ is cheap enough.
Quillquip's an option too, hunter:hero, distract, and shatter, plus he's a cute little murderous porcupine. Needless to say Vashal BGs never really suffer from lack of equipment removal.
Quillquip is probably the best shatter option for straight beast decks - sometimes Ranger doesn't make the cut. But Ranger has utility as a big detection / antirange / brings meat kind of guy.
If Thorn Collection and Occuli Slags weren't so good, I would totally run her! Including the Regulator in a deck is a conscious choice against nora gen.
I have been having fun not running TC or slags... but then, I'm weird and that may change. My current reasoning behind the regulator has almost everything to do with a) AP denial/Armory spam - she's AMAZING vs that crap, b) Cent. Skirmishers and Rally the Herd - every now and then I get off a double attack with her as well as with the Skirmishers, and she does hit pretty hard, and c) since I am running little or no nora gen, I might as well get the chance to parasitize my opponent's nora gen... why not??!!
