Ah finally, DC gets another 10-range attacker! And a Titan even! I'm very much looking forward to teaming Starfire up with Dove! No complaints about this figure. =)
Originally posted by SpakSpang It looks like DC's CJ booster pack is going to through the balance off with the original Hypertime, but it will also make the game much more compatable with Marvel.
A very cheap and useful long distance fighter.
I'm not sure how you came to this conclusion. Only her Vet has a 10 attack value, and for 88 points that's pretty ####py as far as Marvel is concerned, but great for a DC ranger. Other than running shot and RCE (I predict one base damage) she appears to be an expensive version of Booster Gold. And remember that NEITHER running shot NOR RCE can be used against Gotham's mighty defenders.
Please don't get me wrong -- I'm excited about this piece -- but part of my excitement comes from my thinking it DOESN'T seem to throw off DC balance.
Cyborg would be awesome. I'm definitely gonna have to replace rookie Nightwing with a Robin figure and re-paint him as the old costume.
"DC Balance" was 'thrown off' as soon as we saw Superman doing 5 base clicks (not to mention Sinestro). Down with 'DC Balance", up with DC being made correctly.
Well, it isn't going to be a completely thrown off system. I actually think everything will still be playable, but the numbers are beginning to look closer to Marvels...which is in many ways a good thing.
And for the record I think Marvel's numbers are beginning to look closer to DCs. Which people have complained throws some of the balance off from the original Marvel set which was alittle more powerful.
There will be complaints from everybody. In the end I think we are getting a better game in general because Marvel and DC will be more compatiable.
I still don't think Dark Supes is gonna have a base 5. I've ran the numbers through retardog's formula. I'm actually working on it in some spots. I think I've got a couple of things tweaked. At least what I've done on a couple of things has made the formula a little closer on part of the clix. I think he'll have 4 for a couple of slots.
But I'm loving this. Seeing old Koriand'r does my heart good. I want to see some Mystics & Legionaires, too. But I grew up on Wolfman & Perez Titans. That's what got me hooked onto comics. I want a Raven now. With her rookie in the blue costume, exp. in white, and veteran in gold. Bring on Brother Blood!!

Personally, I am just glad to see another Titan. Starfire can replace Dove as my Titans taxi. This is the scenario I plan on using Starfire in:
Starfire taxies Hawk (V).
Next round, Starfire pushes to use running shot, and drops Hawk next to the opponent in question. Starfire then uses her Titans team ability to slough the click of push damage on the waiting Hawk. Hawk "freaks-out" and pounds the opposition into Play-Doh. I like it. More Titans. More CJ.
