Radials are not discounted it's only the normal bias tires. 20-30€ per tire. From what I've gathered for my purposes the radials have more downsides than up. I was thinking about it as small bump compliance and grip would be interesting but if the rolling resistance is worse then it's not going to be a faster tire for me.
Tacky Chan looks a lot like Minion which I don't like front or rear. More so looking for the better rolling resistance for the rear tire so Minion isn't very good there. I might move over to Aggressor if I stay on Maxxiss. Doesn't seem to be anything corresponding on Schwalbe. I don't think Nobby Nic rolls very well you'd usually want flatter more together center line than that.
Hans Dampf looks okay. Just with those small nobs I don't think it can match Dissector with the flatter longer center nobs. Especially with the horizontal cuts in every nob.
I don't really like how JVP describes the Magic Mary so I might just stay on Assegais. Still have 2 Assegais half worn for next season so will only need one tire to the front.
I feel I understand the Schwalbe tires now but gotta think about it.
I was recommended a Mary Betty combo earlier in the thread to replace an Assegai/DHR2 combo. Haven't tried it yet, a few fridns have and like it, but yeah, the Mary on first glance looks more like a Shorty than an Assegai.

The old tires aren't suddenly unrideable. I ride the old casings in the back because I don't need/want that much grip there. I also think the rolling resistance is lower but I'm not sure if that is true. Its just that the radials are extremely loud on asphalt.

Have you thought about these? I'm huge fan of that rear tire, really fast, lacks in braking but decent cornering too, from the front specific ones I've only used the MS one. Can't find these in Finland, so you'll need to order.

No I tend to not delve too much outside of Maxxis because of all the tire jargon you need to learn. That rear tire does look really good for rolling while still being an actual mountainbike tire, I do really like that I might go for it. I was going to order from bike-discount anyway.

These are totally different tires than the old black/white ones so order correct ones.
