Cydstep and first strike go great together - free hits get better the more you can stack.
And as for critical mass - there's plenty of it in non ridiculous incarnations. And still some in at least ha-ha funny ones.
Stacking resists - there's several ways with various levels of ease/cheeze. Once you're stacked, you pretty much only care how sloppy you play with other elements if you can somehow get cursed.
Going crazy with a god - well, it's pretty much hilarious with piety farms ATM, so much so that I can't remember the last time I went serious with TT. Mysterea and Binlor kick enough general purpose ass that you can play pretty sloppily with your other resources.
Gold - well, you can still go spam happy with the crystal ball I suppose, and you can get moderate and fun benefits out of conversion strats, so there's nothing to really point at an scream. CP monster Dragonknights are also more interested in setting up good buildup and combos than being picky about targets and exploration.
DP/Dodge string - got pretty screwy ways of setting you priorities when it comes to exploration and monsters.
Warlords - They're manamonstering cheeze.
And so on and so forth...
