Apologies, in our discussion we mention the use of command that are not usable in Age of Sigmar Spearhead. While such information isn’t usable in Spearhead it’ll be great nowledge for you regular games of Age of Sigmar.
I had my first game with Fyreslayers yesterday (and will fight against DoK next week), oddly enough they have similar abilities and enhancments. I think Blessing of Khaine is amazing (it's basically "Plant the Icon" from Battlesmith except permanent, tho he also give away +1 armour save as passive). Speeding up army abilities doesn't come in clutch until turn 3 (or in this case 2), I ANNIHILATED majority of my Skaven opponent by that time with lucky 6 roll of Rune of Fury on first turn so it's not that great (alpha strike is usually crippling blow, tho in my case I got shoot hard first and assaulted back even harder so it was bloody first turn. Literally melted Stormfiends and about 15 rats in a turn, one of which was whole unit). Bathed in Blood is fine, but not amazing (she's as tanky as Battlesmith and he made it to round 3 with oune wound remaining), Fueled by Revenge is hit&miss, Shademist IS different version of "Plant the Icon" (I actually didn't use mine, but only because I hadn't have good reason for it) and Zelaus Orator is weaker version of Horn of Grimnyr (return killed Fyreslayer, but on 3+, it's AMAZING to get back 2 wound model). So I'm 90% convinced Flask is way to go.
