Will you generate enough corpses for the 2nd pot? I imagine with assault and what not you'll be taking the fight a long way past the pasta pot, and if that's the case is it not better to use the 2 points for the min pot to add a Shredder, so you can get Tenacities out from the word go rather than banking on the pot. Other than that I don't mind it, I've never been a big Thagrosh guy though so hopefully someone else can get in here and help with a bit more detail

Bring a Ravagore rather than a Scythean.

Why you ask? Because them you can use the Animus on the BB and have Big pies of continuous fire. And have everyone hate you.

Its not uncommon for the lunch ladies with the Pot actually kill themselves to make a lesser. Plus you can collect enemy corpses too.

I'm familiar with that, I just feel that with assault and blight bringer shots the stuff dying will be outstripping the pot's gathering range, particularly if they have cannibalised each other for an early lesser. The min unit will have a gather range of 5" if it gets a lesser off turn 1? Not too solid.

Usually the self-killed lesser gets made turn 3 or 4. By which time the pot is up field and in a decent location.

I dunno, I guess I'm looking at this from a skewed perspective where the lists I run into legion probably don't have many corpses in the first place haha. At least none he'd get easily. So fair point.

I tested this out yesterday and both pots made at least one shredder. The min pot well they never saw the warspears coming.

I haven't put the BB in the tier list yet, But I do run this list a lot.
Always a fun list, as it doesn't have too many bad matchups.

BTW, you're actually at Tier 3
