I'm surprised no one has mentioned throwing the Gauntlet on him or any number of other resources/relics/feats/ATAs. This is about as perfect a ranged combat machine as you can get at a bargain cost. He's not even a SR.

Why even mention them when kingpin is clearly the only thing to mention? Haha.

Bullseye joins the ranks of triple-target threats (Deathstroke, Gambit, Longshot). Deadpool goofiness aside, all "normal" characters were well-designed in this set.
My Bullseye card doesn't have the text on it should it??
No, the text spells out everything in beside the Improved Targeting icon on the card. The Units section on HCRealms isn't yet capable of displaying the icons for Improved Targeting/Movement, so all of the icons have to be spelled out. What should be on your card is a + with the running man or the target beside it, followed by colored boxes and icons.
I still don't quite understand where the Probability Control is justified based on the comic source material. As it was mentioned when he was first previewed, I would completely agree his Probability Control should've been a Special Power that works only on his Offensive Attacks a la Kang SR's TRAIT from Chaos War. Can someone more familiar with his canon explain to me why should have the ability to affect an opponent's Attack or even a Friendly Character's?

I can totally see him having fun while correcting the trajectory of a bullet with a paper clip.
This dial is a great representation of a ranged-attack murder-machine that is not all about dealing 5+ penetrating damage. This is not a fanboy dial, just a solid representation of a character that no single character at his point value (or below) wants to face alone. This dial is best played in a crowded map where opponents do not have lines-of-fire to Bullseye. 4 stars for feel and playability, he only misses the last star because he needs other figures to run interference for him.
There's no questioning that this is a great dial. However, there's a couple of things that don't match with the character: CR should be ES/D, and Prob would have been more accurate as a special that only comes into effect for his own attacks.

I can agree with what you're saying with him having prob control but you could also say he throws a knife or rock or something to make an attack hit instead of it missing or something. It makes more sense for a ranged attack but still lol it's something.

The CR makes sense. He fights hand to hand with daredevil.

Probability control makes perfect sense on this figure. Limiting it would just make other cheaper figures that have prob more valuable than bullseye. He can effect an opponents attack in the comics as well as his own. Think outside of the box in terms of prob and it makes sense. I like when designers find more ways than one to depict or utilize standard powers. Otherwise scarlet witch would be the only one walking around with prob.

A LOT of comic book characters fight hand to hand with other comic book characters. That really isn't just cause for CR. I recall him being more of a range threat and getting finished off in hand to hand, but I see where you're coming from re his close quarters bouts with Daredevil.

OK, so if affecting an opponent's attack (by what means in Bullseye's case?) is all that warrants prob then shouldn't someone like Spider-Man get it since he can mock/taunt someone into making a rushed attack? The point of saying that is to show how any number of hypothetical causes could be used to incorporate a power into a figure's dial. That's just an after the fact rationalization though. Someone decided to give Bullseye prob and now you look to account for that. If it fits the character then give the evidence to justify you're claim.
We've spoken before about the opinion/fact divide: something making "perfect sense" to you does not mean something "makes perfect sense". Special powers allow for the standard options to be customized. Is Scarlet Witch the only one deserving of prob? No. But she shouldn't have the same ability to represent her powers as Bullseye (in your opinion) should have to represent his.
I stand by my original assessment: this Bullseye is great but he's a lot more powerful than the character and fails to represent the source material well. That is the result not just of full prob but also the fact that he has PS. Whilst you could easily say it makes perfect sense, does it really make sense that Daredevil (his primary antagonist) can't dodge his attacks with SS?
