Sorry, my question was not very clear. It was more along the lines of, why does she give the team base prob control when they can already use prob control. Wouldn't this be the same as a assest power that said 'this character can occupy multiple levels of terrain.' It's something the team base already does. Why do we need another source when you can't use it more than once? Is this just another case of redundancies a la Harvest and his three sources of outwit, even though he can only use one?
Team bases in general only get automatic prob control if they are a theme team. This asset ability lets you run the Avengers team base with Batman (not on the team base, but as an extra figure on the map) and still have prob control.

It's because you can choose to use theme team PC instead of just giving the base PC and then the TB would have PC and you can use theme team PC on top of it. And some TB have PC on their dials like the blue X-Men.
So, a question on her "No More Mutants" power. Can it de-activate ATA's, and if so, are there any restrictions on which ones it can turn off?
ATA's by definition are team abilities. So yes her power can be used to deactivate them. Here power doesn't list any restrictions on what TA's can or cannot be turned off at all, so no there are no restrictions.
Edit: Better wording is to not say deactivate. Her power says that she chooses a team ability, any character that rolls a 1-5 on the D6 roll "can't use the team ability." So the ability isn't deactivated - the characters who roll 1-5 simply cannot use it that game. her power doesn't list any sort of restriction on what team ability she can pick - she can pick any team ability.
I'm not worried about her. I play wildcards, and Cypher!
You realize Cypher lets your whole team use a given team ability and that wild cards use the team ability they are copying, right? If she just waits for you to pick Mystics or whatever once, then she can use her power at that time. Or she can just prevent you from using the wildcard TA you built the team around.

I have a question about her trait.
NO MORE MUTANTS: Once per game, give Scarlet Witch adouble power action and choose a team ability. Any other character that can use that team ability must roll ad6 that can't be rerolledand if the result is 1 - 5,that character can't use the chosen team ability for the rest of the game
So if I'm playing all 5 Phoenix chases in a 1500 pt match and she's on my team and chooses mystics ta do all the Phoenix chases roll for her trait since magiks trait says they can use the mystics ta?

That's right, SW's ability reads as "can't use the chosen team ability", and Magik's trait says they "can use Mystics". Can't trumps can in this game, it throws a nice wrench into the Phoenix Five Mystery Machine.

Here is the answer from Chris @ WizKids
No. #"For the rest if the game" is a special situation. #That term specifically means that the effect will last for the rest of the game regardless of what happens to the power/ability or character.
