Nothing fancy here, but Cyclops does have some nice tricks up his sleeve. Need to bust a formation? He’s got EE. Need to knock someone back? He’s got Force Blast. Need to neutralize an opposing sniper? Hit them and give them Battle Fury. Three clicks of RCE to help you either hit a high defense or add some damage to the result. I might enjoy those last three clicks more than the first, so he’s pushable. Lots of great team-up cards, too. We’ve seen more than a few Cyclops figures in this point range, but this one holds its own.

So when it says “can use battle fury” that’s not optional for the target right? This is meant to hurt ranged characters I assume.

That's correct. They have to use it.

There are several ways giving it to someone can hurt them (can't range, can't be carried), but also several ways it can help them (Protected Incap and MC, opposing characters can't use Shape Change when attacked by this character). It depends on the situation whether it's a blessing or a curse or a little of both.

I love how wizkids redesigns the cards to make it so that the text isn't over the top and then we get a set full of characters with novel-length cards.

Another great representation of cyclops, this figure its cool, imagine you can give your oponents Battle fury after you use OPTIC BLAST, sidestep Is cool But with the new rules this figure Is better with the +attack+damage. AND remember you could use a team up to improve his abilities and revive comic moments. AND dont forget you could use a havok de n your team...AND remember OPTIC BLAST your oponents
