Question, while we're on the topic of Punishing Maverick: how does Thalia, Heretic Cathar fit in the deck? I haven't seen Punishing lists with her.

Curious if other people agree with this; most Punishing lists I've seen have been the standard 1 Bird, 3-4 Hierarchs, but Birds does sound better to me.
