I like this dial. It is versatile, acting as a support piece for the Batman family, but serving the leadership role in Teen, Teen Titans and Detective teams. Since we are getting three Red Robins this set, I am glad an effort was made to make them marketdly different.

i'm a fan of the character, I was hoping for a much more aggresive version but this fits with how he's being written. i like the second click but PP is wasted on himself most the time. 80 points seems steep for what you get as well. 65 points seems more realistic
The lack of CCE or CR is suprising, but still a nice piece for the points. I'm not really a fan of this character, but I can see him filling out some teams nicely. It would be nice if he had a slightly higher defense on his fist click...but hey...I'm ok with keeping the CREEP in check.
at first i agreed with everyone that this character was a waste, but after playing with him not only is he a taxi he is a nuisance. the perplex and running shot love it. his sp defense works surprisingly well and the outwit with flurry... well that helped me k.o. 10th anniversary wally. he has been on my teams since the set came out and i don't see that changing anytime soon.
I know I've said bad things about this piece, and by itself I still believe it is, but I have just thought of a somewhat point expensive use for him- oracle's taxi. He is just above her point range, so his leadership can pull tokens off of her (allowing her SP/belt powers if shes given it) to be used much more often and he can move her to the nearest elevated+hindering space to start (I know her trait works in starting areas, but they typically don't have hindering in them with very few exceptions that I've seen). Plus, if this strategy makes her too much of a threat that your opponent tries to get to her, he can pull her away quickly, and all the while if she is near he gains stealth as well.
Better not be steaming my clams, or things will not end well for you
In my opinion, if you're going to play him, then you have to have a Batman Ally piece, to give him Stealth; and at least one Titans piece, so that he can heal them with the TA. He's a taxi/support piece. He takes pushing damage and damage from the Titans TA pretty well—it allows you to navigate between Leadership, Perplex, and Outwit; as well as some offensive capabilities. I didn't think that I'd ever say this, but I wish that he had Smoke Cloud. Where is that power when you need it?!
