Well, a change from 8/11 to 7/12 wouldn't be a straight increase in power, imho. At 8/11 I'll try to attack with Minotaurs too sometimes, if I have decent odds.
I won't deny that mutation is good, but its not a guarantee. And haste pretty much just makes sure it can keep up with Succubi (who have a base move of 2)
