Huh. We can basically assume none of these profiles are "balanced" because otherwise they would just be tournament legal.

And I expect the vast majority of it to be strong. Why do all this work just for people to be disappointed the few times they try it?

So... this is for specifically pre-10th players facing other pre-10th players, or for pre-10th players facing opponents who don't know or care about game balance lol. Eh.

I would have preferred they release tournament legal profiles with a prescribed proxy list.

This is the exact same thing they've done for the past couple editions, so Legends as a thing isn't new. I see this more as, hey, these models are old as hell, aren't made anymore and we don't want to spend time making sure they're balanced for tournament play, so here's rules for you to play them in casual/Crusade games, have fun.
