dr fate 8 drop :p

Cool. It's about time Lobo find his way into the games (he was just recently added to Clix too). Plus that ability is really something.

yeah...this guy is totally not to cool for school. He's major freaking awesome, easily pwns most of superman's versions. No wonder he's the main man.

So with that kind of raw power kicking off the previews game, ity has to make you wonder what else are we in store for?

A search card that could allow you to search for a specific character by name, ala We Had A Team-up? The first time you play it name a character and you may only search for characters with that name for the rest of the game with copies of that card?

A searcher for unaffiliated characters?

A searcher that is just plain generic but has a high threshold cost?

I'm stoked about the possibilities.

If you wanted to go through some trouble you could always just throw in a Battleworld and Lobo gets Heroes of Earth Affiliation which allows you to team him up with VU. Might take some adjusting but is in no way impossible.
Sweet friggin card though!!

All you need is to Team up his 3 or 4 drop using I thought we had a team up and you can then search for him with whatever affiliation you want.

I love that card :)

A searcher that is just plain generic but has a high threshold cost?
Im guessing that will be in the HOG raid decks. Due to unaffiliated being the team.

Here's hoping ;)

I'm totally looking forward to a Beyonder, too. We have our first 11 cost. Stall is doing just fine these days. Why not see some Beyonder love sooner or later?

Nobody calling hoax/Shoppery etc.?

Because... I'm not entirely convinced this is anything but a mock up of something that they already said will not happen.

It looks VERY photoshopped to me, IMO.

As I said earlier...
It certainly seems official to me.

I'm calling prediction of a searcher in DCL or the Galactus set that keys off of characters with shared versions.

What they should do is put 'Legend' as a version for the Mag 7 and then have a search card that tutors for characters with version 'Legend'. And the Legends would be drops 1 to 7 (so who would be at what drop?).

Hmm ... well, Flash would be the 2 drop 3/3 that readies for free and can do breakthrough ;)

Green Lantern can be the character you can ditch a card to recruit for free and you can then discard another card to draw 2 cards with him.

Martian Manhunter will be the 3-drop that you activate to return a 2-drop from your KO'd pile to your front row.

Seriously though ...

They might go 2 to 8 instead ...

I could see them ranking by "value" ...

So Aquaman is a 1-drop, but he was one of the guys that has 'formed' a number of the teams. Ditto with Martian Manhunter on 2. They will both reflect their 'we've brought the league together' tendencies by doing some sort of leader type effect, one of them providing a form of character search [even if it is just a "when they come into play, go and grab another JLA character]. The other one would supplement the theme a different way [probably the Manhunter who could be concealed, providing a continuous effect that benefits the team].

One thing they can do for Green Lantern/Flash ... is have two 'pairs'. You can have say ... Barry on 3, Hal on 4 AND Kyle on 3, Wally on 4 all with the Legend versions, as each were part of the 2 "mag sevens" [the original, and the morrison run]. Either way, Flash and Lantern take up the 3 and 4 slots.

Batman gets the 5 slot, he hasn't had a 5 drop since MOR so that helps to fill out a "legendary" curve a bit. Wonder Woman gets the 6-drop slot ... she hasn't had a 6-drop yet [she has a 4, 5 and 7 already] so, again, that gives her another drop she was missing. Finally, Superman at 7. It's not really something he was missing, then again 6 and 8 are the drop he's missing. If things were shifted upwards to 2 through 8, The trinity would go WW on 6, Bats on 7 and Supes on 8, giving each of them a drop they don't have, or at least don't have in Silver.

I like the Trinity at 5, 6 and 7.

1 should be a Flash 2/2 who re-readies and causes breakthrough (only so that people will stop complaining about Quicksivler).

2 should be Aquaman because he sucks if there's no water.

3 goes to Martian Manhunter... although I would think about making him a 2-drop so he's susceptible to Flametrap (hehe... get it?).

4 is GL only because he's more powerful than MM and the other slots are held by the Trinity. Or you can bump up GL to 7 so that Supes can come out one turn sooner at the 6-slot, in that case I would move WW down to the 4 and keep Bats at 5.

They already do have that to a certain extent with the AOA Bishop...
