Darkhawk's dial is better, no question, but he's totally lame as a character whereas the Rogues are awesome. I therefor ruin the shutout and vote HEATWAVE!
What really pushes it over is his natural damage value; he can punch through damage reducers even in close combat... Heatwave will struggle with even Toughness on a lot of his dial.
Regeneration is nice, too. Not a sure thing, being just a single click buried in the middle, but it could (and has for me) change the tempo of a game completely.
Better mobility, unoutwitable damage, longer dial. A good harasser too. So many times I've based people with Darkhawk and he would get smacked onto regen and they are out of actions. Next turn I heal back up. Heatwave really only wins in range and the steady defense.
My vote is for Darkhawk. I really dig his consistent attack. Sure it's only a 9 on his first, and it goes right down to an 8 on click 2.... but there it stays at 8 for 5 clicks. That's enough to get my vote. The potential to surprise Invuln/Imperv figures with big damage with Psychic blast late dial is also nice, still with an 8 attack.
Forum Team Building Contest #2 and #3 Winner, & runner up for #1 and #4.
My vote goes to Darkhawk because of his natural damage vs Heat Wave's poor damage+powers. To me natural 3 is always better because Darkhawk can do his damage close or range and that's why he wins this.
Heatwave(and I like him as a character) has a horrible dial. Even though I'm only so-so on liking Darkhawks dial it is still light years ahead of Heatwave's.
It is almost upon us! Are you prepared for the Quarmageddon?
