If she was a conflict character most clans would try to fit her in.

She's nice, but her sacrifice mechanic pings more with crab.

Essentially Getting two characters for the price of one can ping with every clan.

Yes, and cards like Vengful berserker enjoys her benefit more than most other clans would. I'm not saying she isn't good with other clans. Just that Crab would want her more.

Mechanically I agree 100%. But I get why, design wise, she works the way she works, and am glad she can't be used by the Crab. Since the idea seems to be that she isn't "dying" so much as "taking on a persona".

oh, the flavor wise it makes no sense, but how things go.

I think it only makes no sense if you assume that sacrifice as the mechanic is defined as death (flavor wise). Which is probably true for the Crab, but hardly has to be across the board. Similar to the way characters getting discarded in the fate phase is more a symbolic of them leaving the narrative of the game for various reasons, not just dying.

If you're playing against Crab, then you can use Shosuro Actress to "borrow" their Vengeful Berserker.

But it'll be too late to react with the Vengeful Berseker to the sacrifce of the Shosuro actress, because she's sacrificed as cost and the Berserker only enters play when the effect resolves.

Agreed. But if you were to have two Actresses...

You're right!

After all, what's an arrow to the eye going to do? not like it should kill me easily, that'd be unrealistic!
