Hey yall,

Thinking of making a team with:



His Blood Armor Power reads:

And outwit in the rules reads:

My question is does the wording of Outwit get around this power?

(or) Can it still not be outwitted?

Thanks for your time.

Scrap this, just found:

Any reference to "This (power) can't be countered" is now considered to say "Protected: Outwit". Any reference to “(Character’s) powers [and abilities] can’t be countered” is now considered to say “(Character) has PROTECTED: Outwit”.

-The new rulebook moves away from some older terms to clarify the language of HeroClix. One such term is “counter/countered.” This wording was previously part of the Outwit power, but with the new wording of Outwit, the character simply “can’t use” a standard or special power. Therefore, the older language needs to be updated to avoid confusion in how the older powers work.

NOTE: There is a still a difference between “Protected: Outwit” (initial capital letter) and “This character has PROTECTED: Outwit” (all capital letters). “Protected: Outwit” appears at the end of a special power or trait, and means that power or trait (and any standard powers it grants) can’t be chosen for Outwit. “This character has PROTECTED: Outwit” means that none of the character’s standard and special powers can be chosen for Outwit.
