The Contorted EpitomeSlaanesh Demons220210
if we nerf vexmor, we have to buff some vexmor-like heroes in Chaos, otherwise chaos has nothing. I focused specifically on 170-220pt heroes with crappy or zero abilities, who just do combat, like vex does. I spread them around the chaos gods.

Cypher Ls need help, but mirrorblades' skew profiles are in a spot where the line between unplayable and broken is very thin. Buffing leader to give teensy bit of flexibility.

S2D has an alarmingly low winrate, but cheap marauders have proven problematic. Smaller adjustment on Shield Warriors bc reaction combos with them.

Notes on Unchanged Factions
65
Untmed BeastsLowThe needed change for them is 2 additionl wounds on Preytakers, which is out of the scope of this pass
66
Jade ObeliskLowThey have playable builds that aren't reflected in the low winrate. Defacers still likely need an adjustment, but that will be part of a 2nd pass.
67
Demons of NurgleHighVexmor is the prime driver of high winrate, also the pilots are high-elo. Nurgle's winrate per pilot elo is normal
68
Ruination ChamberHighFor now, Ruination Chamber is an acceptable power level imo. It is well above average but counterplay exists.
69
COS DispossessedHighDispo's winrate is lower than the perception of it as a faction. It is possible that as lethality decreases due to +1A nerf, Dispo could become a problem.
70
Questor SoulswornLowMost questors would be problematic if brought too low, since they all function better as allies.
71
Rotmire CreedLowRotmire's winrate of 45% is low but not unacceptably so.
