And I've cut back enormously, but can't seem to do it totally.
Staying on point, though -
Not sure what all the hubbub is about the gems. If you get a gem in sealed you have to get the one that the figure equips for the discount to make it work, so the rarity of the gems in total has very little to do with the odds of the gem you need for the figure you actually pulled. If this is a sealed argument.
At home, I certainly won't be worried about it either way. I'll just pay the 5 points and say I have it.
Whoever designed the elders obviously.....doesn't like the elders. Don't get me wrong, they each have a neat gimmick that directly responds to meta elements, and they have great point values. But their stats are abysmal.
Also for immortal beings who have been banned from Death's realm...a single click of regeneration is insulting. A stop click perhaps? So dissapointing. Yeah sure champion can bring on the hurt but ONE penetrating shot and he's either dead or useless. Sure the runner can carry his brothers but has a near full dial of 9 attack and 2 damage. Almost every speedster from Rebirth is stronger or better in some way.
It just seems to me every time we get a cosmic set they reign in the power creep. But the next thor set will break the game. Even the items are overcosted when compared to thor items or doc ock arms/beetle pod/glider etc.

You can also play all the elders for less than 1000 points with this new iteration. Also Runner is much better than all his Rebirth competition in that point range. A 10/4 or 11/3 HSS piece than can't have it's HSS taken away is OK in my book

I agree but he has no defense. The rebirth speedsters have super senses and shape change stacked. The runner gets unlucky enough to be hit once he's nearly useless. His naked dial cant be outwitted.......
The champion took multiple full power blasts from thanos to the face
This champion can't do that.
The runner bludgeoned thanos and his space throne.
This runner can't do that.
The gardener grappled with the Hulk
This gardener most definitely can't do that.
Once again i love their point values and I'm glad they can finally can be played on a lower point team. But they really can't take a hit. Lets hope the astronomer helps their keyword a bit.
Clix hasn't been power-level consistent since ever, really. And neither have the comics. Remember when Spider-Man beat a herald of Galactus? Or how about Batman taking down Deathstroke?

Or an even better example Deathstroke going against the Justice League and not instantly having his orange and blue hiney handed to him.
....outmaneuvering the Flash, ....well it wasn't like anything in "Character Assassination"....er I mean "Identity theft" wait no "Indemnification crapola" was any less retched.
Brad Meltzer can go clean an incontinent hippo with his tongue as far as I'm concerned.....but I'm afraid after reading his in his own words "Love Letter" to the satellite era of the JLA that might be his definition of "Love".
And no I'm never going to let this go until he apologizes and FIXES IT!
We now return you to your on topic non-ranty discussion.

If a persons main interest in the set maybe the objects themselves then I say they can feel any way they want about it.
As I said my main concern. Is how many you can expect in a brick. If it's at least 3, then I dont think its too bad.
I think the only really issue is if each gem is tied to only one specific figure. Then that would mean if you got a whole brick filled with SRs like Lockjaw, Ebony Maw or whoever else doesnt seem to need an object would that mean you get a brick with less objects.
That personally would sting for me and make me need to drop my preorder.
The major draw for me, are the Black Order and some of the Avengers pieces. So it's the objects honestly that make me want to buy blind for the set.
this same mindset is the same as someone who ONLY wants high rarity figures that THEY want. blind boosters will never be that way. not even half of a brick has been opened and there are ONLY 6 gems to collect. wizkids knows this, and i fully expect the gems to come with figures.
as a collectable game, and a THIS game, we should all be used to how the company distributes objects like this. the last set had the three most used objects come with SR figures. the big difference is people knew the gems and gauntlet, etc are in the set. so for some strange reason people are expecting the objects to be all over the place. even though all the figures that have been pulled aren't the ONLY figures that can use said gems.
so again, i think people should relax, but this is the internet and most of all ,realms. so i guess overreacting is the norm..
@antonio.clark.art is my instagram.take a look and tell me what you think....be blessed!!!
But it IS a valid concern. We have seen 40% of his brick, each one has had 1 or 2 characters that could use a gem, and none have shown up so far. This can really mess with sealed play (especially with the point values).
End of the world? No.
Head scratching and frustrating? Yes
and we only saw three figures that can use gems. there are way more out there, and i know the gems will come with the ones they're suppose to. sealed play won't be messed up at all because the dials are fine without the gems. none that we seen, NEED the gems. they're only enhanced by them.
i want the gems like everyone else, but i know i'll get them. but it seems to be that people think they'll be easy to pull. that's never been wizkids way. in reality, the soul gem is the best one and i think it's gonna come with dr. strange.

Clix User Monkey Joe's signature is a tally of the number of times Monkey Joe has lifted Mjolnir. And also the number of times Monkey Joe has KO'd a figure. (Currently 9 and 3 respectively)
This is a game where I can have the living embodiment of an Iron Maiden song kill a Thanos while Muhammad Ali and Akuma tag team uppercut a Blue Eyes Ultimate Dragon. Consistency is thrown out the window at the door
