This is.....horribly disappointing for 90 points. Creativity level ZERO

Running shot the entire dial traited and 75 points with the cosmic TA and FREE Regen sounds about right for a dial that is 2/3 worthless.

I dont think he's that bad, he's extremely top heavy but thats why they gave him free regeneration. The main thing he's lacking is any type of move and attack so he definitely needs something to get him mobile. A 90 point guy hitting for 14/4 is definitely worth looking at. You just HAVE to protect him. That barrier defense is pretty useless.

No bigger evidence of power creep than this.

The same exact stats as the original 97 point Firelord.

But this one is 7 points less, has Cosmic Team, free Regen, and a one-time double attack (albeit without the RCE boost)

Is "Borne" a typo here or on the card itself?

Yes “Borne” is on the card.
Also, I think he goes really well with the silver surfboard for an even 100pts, or with his survivability you can make him the herald for galactus in order to call him in considering you have to survive in enemy territory

I think Stones of Merlin would be a great option for him. Sure he's easily hit but Invincible with his FREE Regeneration should make him last longer, just be sure to call your doctor if he lasts more than 2 hours.

@kontrol
There is no argument that power creep exists but I am not sure this is a prime example of it. Yes, he has got a few boosts for less points but when you consider what he brought to the IC era games vs. what his legacy version brings to the modern figures now, I think that the legacy dial is a bit weak relative to the times.

I remember this guy well. Our venue called him "cheeselord" and banned him haha. That 8 defense was SOOO good when support could heal 6 clix at a rip.

I love this figure from day 1 and had to play this awful Legacy out of sheer nostalgia. I slapped the Silver Surfboard on him and it was glorious. Little steep for 100 but totes worth it.
