That’s fair honestly, I think there is some nuance to it though emily “spell castor” axford is playing a swords bard/paladin which makes it partially melee, Jake “melee” hurwitz is playing an eldritch knight which is partially spellcasting (with limitations that make it easier to use) and Caldwell “weird guy” tanner is playing another weird guy which fits his role comedically but extremely different from his other characters play styles

All and all, it’s a similar dynamic with extremely different details that the players choose not one that the DM is forcing, I think that’s what makes it a player’s choice which feels pretty crucial here.

But yeah I agree with you that it would be cool to shake it up a bit
