Dialog:

Frau: SCOTT!!
Scott enters the lair
Dr. Evil: Hello Scott...
Scott: Hi.
Dr. Evil: I'm your father...Dr. Evil.
Scott: I haven't seen you my whole life? And now you just come back and expect a relationship? Pfft. I hate you.
Dr. Evil crying motions to Scott for a hug while Scott recoils

Scott: Get away from me you lazy eyed psycho!!

CUT TO:

So as we all settle in on the notion that these evil twins will be around for the forseeable future can we get some clarification on their shenanigans? Our play crew has a lot of ideas, not a lot of facts so we ask the brain trust...

The Black Lantern Scott(s).


So this white shirts running with his dead black lantern homies and is packing a (0 cost, has all keywords) indigo tribe ring and constructs to act as a healing battery...got it.


This black shirt however can't equip the indigo ring for free (choosing BL keyword) if he wants to get the benefit of his "Counting on the Community" trait and "Family is Everything" defense SP bump. His "Fight for a Cure" trait already provides him with support and the free heal 1 click, so is there really any reason for the indigo ring on him? We've had a mish-mash of debates regarding this, but maybe better minds would have a reason to equip him with this particular ring.

As a follow-up, plenty of ideas on how to abuse these Scott shenanigans as we will see throughout the year as he runs on A LOT of teams. You have any you want to share with the class? If not, no worries. My precious...I mean Scott...will reveal himself to all...hehe...

So in conclusion, "Dr. Pepper were neither a doctor, nor a pepper. Discuss."

Because he can already use Support he can heal an extra click when he uses it from the ring. So he can guarantee heal 3 clicks to a BL turn one (which would put a figure like BL Superman from his 120 line to top dial 260 point line or with a roll of 5-6 put Nekron from his 40 point line to top dial in one turn) He also has the heal 1 click for free every turn which he will be able to use to heal the Black Lanterns.

It all comes down to do you have the points to use both Scotts or one or the other? The black shirt one while you have to pay for the ring has Prob, the Community tokens, support, +1 to map roll, and the heal 1 click a turn. The white shirt will give your figures +1 attack and has the PW. If you can't play both IMO in general if you have the points I'd rather pay 35 for the black shirt and ring over 25 for just the white shirt.

Wow. It seems the BL healing mechanic is far superior to the symbiote healing shenanigans due to the conditions required to heal past starting lines.
