no, stellaris genocide route would be playing fanatic purifiers, as you literally cannot not purge everyone. preferably by eating them all. i had some really rapid growth with my current purifiers by declaring on my first neighbor that started a colony, conquering both the colony and capital without needing to fight his fleet/starport (he surrendered) eating the population, which gave me around 5k spare food, and not building a single farm for the next 50 or so years, allowed me to focus on minerals/tech and energy and go on a killing spree, forever adding to my food stores. it's now 2361 and i have just 1 food building on every planet, that being a paradise dome. i have 30 planets of which 3 are now fully focused titan farms. (xenophobes can farm titans with a +100% food production modifier) and i'm making +100 food a month of it, probably not going to need a new farm world for the next 100 or so years oh, i'm also terraforming every single planet to gaia and building megastructures because i can, already cleansed 2 of 4 fallen empires, 1 of the 2 remaining ones has awakened. and is scared of me

ok so I force summoned them on another AI empire (with the help of good ol' console). It's about 1-2m fleet power with 4 arc emitter type weapons that have very high rate of fire, and always 1 shot kill your battleship. ......and It's so bloody easy to kill. Allow me to explain. Its shield is impossible to take down, but its hull point is abysmal. It was summoned around 2670 (version 1.6.1 vanilla btw), I specifically nerfed myself to control only about a third of the galaxy just to see if my fleet can deal with that. I had around 3300 fleet capacity & 1 million combined fleet power split into 3 fleets. no confederation or anything. They're mainly made of Arc emitters, as it is my favourite weapon regardless of the enemy, along with a bunch of naked corvettes armed with torpedos that ignore shields. They got psi jump drives, enigmatic shields, and so forth. the empire that spawned it was next to me, but its capital was on the other side of the galaxy. Annnnd of course the main reckoning death ball came for my capital system right away before any other planet, because I'm a fucking player instead of AI. fucking hate that. Anyway I only had 1 fleet within jump range before he obliterates my capital world. it's only about 350k fleet power (compared to the reckoning's 1m) And I won. Yeah. I barely touched his bloody 300000 shield, but the torpedoes that ignore shields, a bunch of bombers, and of course the Arc emitters tore its bloody hull apart. I lost a bunch of ships, and even my triple upgraded shield+hull+armor (I science'd hard early on so those were the researches left) battleship gets 1 shotted. but nake corvettes got 1 shotted too, so those bought me a bunch of time allowing my arc emitters (spread across around 120 battleships) to just do 1~300 direct hull damage with 100% accuracy. and when the dust settled, the ball's explosion was spectacular, and I still had about 200k fleet power left on that fleet. (My other 2 fleets warped back into my capital system AFTER the battle was won) so yeah. it's not end game crisis because it....isn't that hard to kill. Oh btw, no celebration or any dialogues for clearing out the fall of eldar--i mean balls of reckoning.

I think it would be fun when you play multiplayer and on the end-game everyone is relatively on a stalemate because of the same strength, and then one of your friend (or you) started to creepily smile and said "well, if i can't beat you guys, I'm taking you all to hell with me" and unleash the end of the cycle event to rape the galaxy. That would make a good role-play.

You don't have to have 3 ascension perks to access Mind Over Matter; I have it on my current game, as my 3rd perk (of 3 so far). All you need is the Psionic Theory tech researched. I had never got it before, so I started a new game recently designed to ensure that I did; if you look it up, the tech is "random", but weighted depending on certain variables- stuff like fanatic spiritualist and having a researcher with the Maniacal trait really help if you want it earlier, as does getting the research boost from the tech ascension tree, which increases Rare tech options. I had my ascension perks all planned out, and only two perks I wanted were available right off the bat, so when my third slot became available, I decided to just let it hang until I met the prerequisites for them, which I figured would take a while (because it did for the Titans and Mega-Engineering perks in the past). To my surprise, I don't even think it had been hanging there unused for year before I got the Psionic Theory tech, and made Mind Over Matter my third perk choice. Now all I need in terms of techs are the Titans, Mega-Engineering, and Climate Restoration (I think that's what it is called), and then I will be all set for my perk picks. P.S I case you were wondering, I chose/will choose the following ascension perks: Technological Ascendancy, Imperial Prerogative, Mind over Matter, Transcendence, Colossus Project, Galactic Wonders, Master Builders, and maybe Consecrated Worlds (because it is only allowed by spiritualists, which I never play, except this once just to try Psionics).

+Logan Setna Only if you get the option for that Covenant through RNG, which seems super rare. In a non-ironman playthrough I spent more than an hour save-scumming and entered the shroud hundreds of times to try and get it. I got the option for the other 4 multiple times, but the End of the Cycle never came up once so eventually I gave up. Maybe it requires something special to become available or maybe I was just unlucky, but with such a seemingly tiny chance I don't think it makes psionic empires OP at all. The other two ascension paths always get their awesome buffs, while the psionic buffs are kind of meh in comparison (except for the End of the Cycle, which it seems you really can't rely on).
