Ok, so most finest isn't proper grammar, and I have asked this question before, but more time has passed and there might be an actual ruling now.

Can special star powers, like the one that states that World's Finest doesn't take pushing damage, be turned off? I've heard that they can, I've heard that they can't. Is there an official ruling on this yet?

If WF can't allow itself to push to HSS, it is not as good as it should be.

Star special abilities cannot be canceled or countered.

If you are sad at the above state of affairs, which is 100% correct, may I suggest -

Telephone Booth (Light): Once per turn, a character occupying the same square as this object can be dealt 1 unavoidable damage as a free action.

Can you point to where in the rules this is stated? Otherwise we'd just have to take your word for it and that doesn't make a convincing arguement.

Thanks!

Not in the rules, alas, but confirmed on the WK Heroclix: Rules forum, here, and there (in the first post, check the Earth-2 Supes entry).

EDIT: first link:

second link:

Page 3 of the latest general E&C

Star Abilities
• Some characters have an ability on their character card defined with a star. These are abilities possessed by the character. These abilities cannot be countered.

Ask and ye shall receive. In Abundance.

and from that errata it seems as though they can be canceled, just not countered

Check my previous post, they can't be canceled either.

It does make sense to be able to turn the power off, but the star power can not be outwit or "countered".

Which makes perfect sense for them getting into HSS if you think about it =^^=
