With good players, this would be an awesome team. Especially if at least one of the Kheldians was a Warshade.

I know this post was meant to be 'a bad team, oh noes!' but I can't help thinking this would both be incredible effective AND fun!

Although generally 'not taking any of your buffs' can normally be equated with 'incompetent player' unless they really know what they're doing.

Last I checked a good portion of people playing this game like to make theme characters. They design a character and imagine what types of powers they'd use, then they get the powers that stick to that theme. Skipping good powers because they don't fit the character's theme is not at all uncommon, nor is it particularly frowned upon by other players in most teams. Just because somebody isn't min/maxing with their powers doesn't mean they are "incompetent."

That team anyway would probably be highly effective against melee heavy enemy groups (Freaks probably). The reason I said 5th Column is they stick to (powerful) ranged attacks for a while and will quickly target squishies that get their attention, and at +2 at those levels it means pretty much instant death.

Have to take exception to this definition. our coalition practically own the patent on that term (see link in sig) and most of our SGs require you to take the teamate buffs since it makes everyone kill faster. We're fine with you skipping the heals though most folks find a way to fit them in anyway.
