Squabbler's Spider-slayer mark x

brennan4's the muse

ComicJunkie's Skeletor

Round 3 Votes:

Buckwheat - Bizarro
He's terrible, I hate him. Unlike Wizkids, you've created a boring, unplayable mess that doesn't do any of the cool things Bizarro can do. That special damage power is especially dumb.

brennan4 - The Muse
Limiting your opponent's power choices is potentially devastating, and really makes them think about who they can afford to leave open to The Muse, but he's not such a problem that he'll shut down the whole game in two attacks or anything crazy. His cancellation of Improved Targeting on opponents within his immediate area is also a good representation of his power, and the 'empty pocket' Daredevil had to feel for in order to track him.

DestructoBoy - Ghost Rider
Letting him mark multiple guilty targets, but only punishing them when he takes the effort to stay adjacent to each one, instead of grazing them in a series of drivebys, is a neat Penance mechanic. His switch into a peekaboo monster once he loses his Invincible is a good idea, too, and his speed power is an interesting twist on the RAM formula, granting him better mileage on a straightaway.

Honorable Mention: StormCrawler - Medusa
On the right map, she could be excellent, but on her own, she's a blade with no handle. The quandary comes when you realize she damages all double-tokened characters (a very common sight in modern games) that can see her, so she'll have to go off on her own if you want to avoid damaging your own force. The downside to this is that she's not terribly self-sufficient, so you can send her to try and catch the opponent independent of your other plans, which will most likely result in her KO, or risk hurting your team while providing her the support she needs.

Bon soir, kiddos!
I hope everyone had a decent weekend! Just a friendly spooky reminder that votes for ROUND 3 are due by the time I get to my computer in the morning

Round 3 Votes:
1. brennan4- The Muse
2. ComicJunkie- Skeletor
3. LostGaladorian- Night Feeder

1. The Muse - Nasty…if you can pull it off. And Daredevil villains seldom get attention so kudos.

2. Night Feeder - don’t know what this is but I like caveats and think they should be more common

3. Having a hard time narrowing so I’ll HM twice

HM- Bizarro - three STOP back to back to back is a little too obnoxious but I like where it started.

HM- Spider-Slayer - that’s a groovy 75 point terror. Too bad he’s 50 points. And the language doesn’t jive but that’s a common fault this week.

Bad morning folks! Please wait as ROUND 3 has just begun, and everyone can boo for Buckwheat's Bizarro! It was the worst!

For the spoopy month of October, we have a double podium share! It's two.. two... TWO contestants for the price of one, as we congratulate both Destructoboy and Buckwheat again! Double the entries, double the fun...


This wraps up October, and yet another heartfelt thanks to those that were able to participate in some way You're the reason we're here!!

Tune in next month for yet another contest (link to follow)

Congrats to Buckwheat and Destructoboy on all their great dials this month!

Thanks to Niceguyrob for frightful fun this month!

I appreciate the feedback! What would make the language work better?

The first time each turn that Spider Slayer is targeted by Outwit it has no effect instead.

‘Deal hit characters 1 action token’? Give hit characters an action token.

Many thanks for that! I appreciate the breakdown.

Funny thing is I used to use "Give hit characters an action token," but was later told "deal" was more accurate. Who knows how many language paradigms ago that was haha

Thanks, everyone! You all are too kind.

Anyone recognize the dial that I used for Bizarro?

I clearly wasn't paying nearly enough attention. Did I really get that many votes??

Yes, yes you did

Running a little behind, but I have the new thread started
