DC HeroClix Legacy Sneak Peek 6 - Jinx!

DC HeroClix Legacy Sneak Peek 6 – Jinx!

Jinx
Unit Num: 034	Point Value: 44	Team: Calculator
Unit Num: 035	Point Value: 48	Team: Calculator
Unit Num: 036	Point Value: 54	Team: Calculator

Playtip
Wild card fans, here's a boost: Jinx sports the Calculator team ability, and brings some excellent abilities to the table. She's cheap: 44, 48, and 54 points, and starts with two clicks of back-row goodness: Phasing to move into position, Psychic Blast to wound would-be attackers, and Probability Control to help reduce randomness.

The good news: the Psychic Blast helps her 2 Damage Value pack a punch. The better news: it stays at 2 for her entire dial on all three versions. However she has no damage-reducing abilities, so if you want her to stick around, make sure she stays away from the fray.

Two clicks in, she twitches over to Pulse Wave, and on her Experienced and Veteran versions adds a some Enhancement to the mix. If she makes it far enough, she'll get a touch of Energy Explosion right before she's KOd.

Jinx works best when she's got a variety of team abilities she can copy, or as an addition to a theme team. Her Rookie version makes a nice secondary figure in 100-point games, and she's useful no matter what point cost you're playing.

webhead's take - Sounds like a well rounded fig, Domino might have some competition if the stats are halfway decent...I like how tightly packed her point values are...it looks like she'll be a "scalable" character that can be flexed points wise to fit on the right team.

Seems pretty inexpensive for what she does. Don't know the character but I like the piece!

Be sure to check the figure gallery out, too. They added Harvey Bullock, Bright Lights, Deep Shadows, Damage Shield, Overconfidence, Carol Ferris and Pie-Face.

We need Sand. And Sandman. And even Sandy the Golden Boy.

Modding fodder!

Primarily because I don't know who she is and because her sculpt is awsome (below the head)

I love the character Jinx, and she was well represented in Clix form. Her Enhancement and Probability Control mixed in with Psychic Blast (three of my most favorite abilities) with wildcard is outstanding, especially for her point costs. I was hoping for some Mystics TA on her lower-level versions, but I can just wildcard Mystics instead!

Not to mention the rest of the Fatal Five, Fearsome Five, and Crime Syndicate. Oh and throw in some Doom Patrol members.

She looks so different from what I remember in the comics AND from the version on TV (Teen Titans Animated is proably why she was chosen) that I don't see a reason to make her look like this.

Playabiltiy wise, very good.

I see this figs as being more like a Black Cat on steroids. That wildcard is going to make her really nasty!

Read the rules. They do a body good!

Though I would prefer her classic costume with the horns, she has this costume in the current run of Outsiders.

Lets hope they don't ever produce Gizmo's bleech costume from the same run.

Wow, what a great figure! And no, no double entendre intended.

Nice to here about more enhancement for DC, and that she gets the wild card ability on all versions. Should be perfect to tag along any Bat villain or Sin/Syn figure for AV sharing. If you're using her that way, she's useful whether she gets hit or not.

Looks to be the first Legacy figure that will be cost-efficient for relatively few points.

I have no idea who this Jinx is.

I would have rather had Brian Michael Bendis's Jinx from his Jinx and AKA: Goldfish series.

Hmmmm... I got nothin'
