This is how I would rewrite the new free spirits
This team is way to elite to be washed in 3 episodes, if you don't think they're elite and just fodders because of aquila, that is fair, but even aquila gave this team lots of praise while fighting them, even calling them an elite team. So this is how I would fix them and make them into one of the best antagonist in the story. First we need to establish them, after the exchange arc, we will have lisa making a call to them saying, they need to prove their worth. On the otherside of that call the team will receive this call while just after killing a whole group of assassins who was protecting one of a high level person in Romania who the team was hired to kill. This can establish them as they ruin most of Europe as the best hired hit team. Since we weren't truly introduced to Europe side of castle while let this team dominate Europe underworld business. On the hwajin boat arc, this is when this team will prove themselves. While the team trying to prove their worth to be the new free spirit, they need to kill the old one. So we will have them hunt down shamo and frigate one by one as a team. First they will hunt shamo, and shamo put up a solid fight but at the end this team easily beat him with only a scratch to owl and kill shamo. This also won't change the church arc at all really since shamo wasn't a big factor. Second is frigate, 3 against 1 in a shootout but frigate only land 2 shots on heron, while he was changing positions to snipe frigate down. At the end Condor end him with a shot to the end while Frigate is bleeding out with more than 5 bullet wounds. This will change the church arc with Hak leg not being shot, but ks will still beat him regardless tbh. Then what I'll change in the hunt for aquila arc, is gustuv. He was the big fish against aquila not really team, so gustuv won't be present til the end when aquila kill this team. But before gustuv come in, we will have this team wound aquila and truly put a good shout out, against aquila til the every same ending happens with Condor begging to gustuv.
Because many people think they're fodders which is expect with them getting worked in 3 chaps, but I really don't think anyone can beat this team in long distance expect, ks, Hak, bdc, Aquila, maybe lichen? The list is very slim, their hax is amazing drones, heron is a snipe with lot of other shi like flash bombs, they're also every in sync with each other, making it hard for any close combat person to even get close, they also don't argue team chemistry is to the point.
What y'all think about this and what will you change?
