One of the odd things about TFT is the linear warrior / quadratic wizard meme applies even more to groups.

Adding another meatshield gives a linear increase in capability while adding a wizard gives a linear increase in fatigue recovery times a linear increase (usually just log increase due to overlap in spell lists) in the list of spells available. So a borg-like gang of wizards can both power single spells of incredible power while also selecting just the right spell to apply in each circumstance.

This is why friends don't let friends play Muggle.
