And, since the goliath was mostly melee stuff, he'd then have to double move to get back into her face, then he'd get sent away again.But, once the party had polished off the elites and other bodyguards, and had Baba Yaga bloodied, the party was fully healed, though down a bunch of Daily & Encounter powers.  Since the night was getting late, I declared that the players had won the combat, since Baba Yaga basically had no chance without allies, and would now be the full focus of all the attacks.  I didn't want to sit there for another 2 hours doing 2 broomsticks a round, teleport the goliath and have him attack the fighter, every single time.</blockquote>
