Countering flambeau's when using demon SCs?

[Benjamin]

I had a recent game as EA mictlan where I used ice devils and arch devils pretty heavily, and I was always paranoid that opposing players would wise up and use flambeaus against them. Even a str 10 human with a flambeau will do 69 (I think) ap damage. Fortunately they never did, but is there is a good response to this tactic?

My plan was to rely more on ice devils, size 4, and then use darkvines, size 5, to try to mess up his presumed attack large enemy monsters order, but what else is there? I can't think of anything to reasonably equip the SC with that will stand up to such a high level of damage.
