All of this is wrong by narrative virtue of being directly stated. It won't work out as she's saying beyond the basic setup, and even that's pretty shaky. No battle plan survives contact with the enemy.

And then, they will be weaponized. Like everything in this game, from kittens to babies, everything is a potential device of murder.

So if baseless speculation is all we have, we might as well treat it like fact.

Oh, come on, when has Vriska ever been known to overestimate the wisdom of her plans?

EDIT: Aside from every time she's made a plan, obviously.

Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

The explanation was ironic. The joke was that no reader could possibly be so dense as to miss it. Yes. Clearly.

Wait, Homestuck ran out of irony jokes like half an act ago. Damn.

Lord English and Caliborn aren't directly involved in this fight? That doesn't seem right. Vriska is hiding things.
LE is involved. LE!Jack has been shown to pretty much be a version of Lord English.

I think that Vriska's plan of "splitting people up" is not very optimal when dealing with multiple end-game bosses.

has she even heard of focus fire

To be fair, our heroes will find themself under some focussed fire if they allow their enemies to gather and probably team up on them. As I understand it, they're going to keep the antagonists tied up and isolated by engaging them with defensive (and/or expendable) squads, while the bulk of their forces crushes one problem after another.

I think the cleverest way to deal with Condy would be alerting Lord Jack of her treachery-- if LJ is even sapient right now.
LE seems to be the guy to execute his lieutenant before those pesky children are dealt with.

I'm pumped to see Slick again.
