Two things:

1) Since it states "adjacent character" without saying friendly or opposing, that means I can use this power to teleport either friendly or opposing adjacent characters?

2) If it is true I can teleport opposing characters, can they choose to not go along with it?

Damn good question subscribed

1. Yes. That is correct.

2. No. They do not get a choice.

Thanks for the quick reply, chrisdosmil.

This is now the closest thing we are getting to a Bencrawler in Modern age!


I am surprised I have yet to see anyone talk about using her power offensively, only as a special carry.

wow. "roll a 5-6 or you are stun locked". messed up.

edit- and i roll the die, so i can probability control it, to increase my chances of stun locking you. for a couple turns, anyhow. hmm. leadership and probability control looks like a good idea.

lock you down with teleportation portals, then next turn remove the action token from magick with leadership. use Prob control on either roll to increase the likely hood of it working.

Is "No Character" a valid choice for this power? Or does Magik need to be adjacent to a character to use it?

It does not imply a choice, so I would say she has to be adjacent to another character to do this. That being said, she has phasing and a speed value greater than 5, why not just take the move action?

Where are you seeing Phasing on her dial?

In my dreams, apparently. Just went back to quote her dial, and she doesn't phase at all. I could have sworn she does. Why did I think that?

Maybe because we are talking about "teleportation" discs. Or because the next most recent version of her does have it.

Not sure. I know nothing of the character (I was even calling her Ma-jee-k at the last AvX tourney) I only know that I was in a situation where I didn't have anyone next to her and so I couldn't get her where I needed.

I also know her P5 Chase (which I like a lot at 295) lacks the X-Men keyword which irks me as I try running theme teams.

Yeah I was really hoping to see an errata on her special. It needs to read, "Magik can use phasing teleport." as the first sentence. I feel like wk dropped the ball on that one.

Did they drop the ball, or did they simply figure that the trouble one has to go through to get this to work (basing magik to an opposing figure or vice versa), having her stay alive through the attack to her next turn, and then triggering the trait, is not quite so easy to pull off? Sure, there's the TK slingshot thought from Magneto, Jean or any number of TK'ers, but... eh. I dunno.

Why is it a dropped ball? I don't get it...

should b able to teleport on her own?
without needing to yank someone with her on the way...
