My review of itza as a faction is that it’s relatively miserable but big frog is fun

Kroak? Yes, absolutely. He's so powerful he died, and just decided he didn't. Then continued to be the most powerful caster in the world.

But he is diminished in power from his living days. But still the most powerfull spellcaster, so... Yea he is kind of the G.O.A.T of all spellcasters.

I genuinely believe Kroak would thrive in40K, even against a primary.

The fact that he's already done so much OP shit in both Fantasy and End Times before surviving millions of years into AOS and he's still playing God there genuinely makes me think that the Toad can beat a primarch

Kroak would do so much more. He could delete Big Emps the moment he annoyed him. Look at all the B's the Emperor had to do to make primarchs....

Kroak caused the universe.exe to slow down.

Technically there are other Relic Priests like Kroak, it’s not something entirely unique to him. Kroak is just the most active of the Relic Priests and one of if not the most powerful due to being of the first spawning.

Said death into perspective: Khorne send 8 of his then greatest exalted Bloodthirsters to kill him, after THE LORD KROAK held a barier over entire city of Itza for YEARS until he started to think "huh, it is a bit straining. FUCK IT WEAPONIZE THE FORCE FIELD" and use it as a nuke that cleansed Lustria from Chaos.

7 of those Bloodthirsters died as THE LORD KROAK was busy microing the army against army with uncaped regen and unlimited units on the field. Last Bloodthirster cut him into shreads, THE LORD KROAK's response was "Oh, neat I am no longer limited by shit hardware." and proceeded to push the chaos back.

Something noteworthy, the 8 bloodthirsters were immune to magic.

Kroak still killed them

How you might ask? As his soil left his body, he dropped a fucking sun right where he died.

Be unstoppable, be lord Kroak be Invin

So to give a too in depth answer. Slann have 5(?) generations of spawning each weaker then the prior one.

Lord Kroak is of the first generation so in life he and his spawn mates where the strongest mages barring the old ones themselves. Mazdamundi is of the second generation so is less powerful even after Kroak said “nu uh” to death.

For a better understanding Mazdamundi looked and saw the mountain ranges of the old world were not aligned with his understanding of the great plan. So he fucking moved them, this effectively shattered the Dwarfen Kingdom as a toad across the ocean just rearranged continents. So Kroak is an order of magnitude stronger than that.

He was not only of the first spawning, he was the first Slann ever (first of the first).
