a bit dissapointed with where they all seemed to land on this topic but I'll continue to listen. I'd disagree very much with Dana's flimsy comparisons but I don't feel like going into too much detail on a post no one's going to read

Goreclaw is real easy on a budget. All you need is big creatures and a lot of the decent roster usually comes under $2. The staple creatures like Vigor, Archetype of Endurance are $5 at most.
