    I am pretty sure that Devil Dino is the greatest character in the game due to his purpleflag.png animation.

    Have you seen those tiny little arms flailing about? I almost fell outta my chair the first time.

    Yeah I'm sure his purpleflag.png sound effect has changed. It's kinda adorable.

    It sounds like there is a water drop sound at the start. I can't make sense of it. Kinda weird.

    How many voting 5/5/3 have faced 5 purple? It's pretty brutal. At least when it creates a cascade worth 10 AP of every color... Every couple turns.

    After the Gauntlet, everyone, and this ability generally doesn't create matches, much less cascades. We've already established that.

    So the only way to get covers for this guy will be hp for the forseeable future, right?

    That and the one-of-each daily rewards at the one year mark.

    I'm sure he'll be available again at some point, but that will probably be at least six months out.

    I lost a match where his purple caused 2x 5 match cascades followed by a green and a red which one shot my x force. Hood and the featured couldn't finish off dino.

    I have Devil Dinosaur at level 127 with his purple power at a level 3 and I have to say that his purple power has to be the most useless power in the entire game. Why in the world would you make an ability like that? In fact, all his abilities are extremely bland. Two of them do damage with one of them doing more damage than the other(making the other one almost useless) and the third ability moves tiles to the top left corner. I mean I'd understand if the level 1 didn't do squat but for god's sakes make them do something! Steal one AP from a random color for all I care, but moving a black/red/green/yellow tile to the top left corner?! What good will that do?

    Every now and then it'll make a match but it's never anything significant and I know I'm not the only one who complains about his piece of **** powers so please for the love of god do something.

    I quite like it myself. It's not the most mega board shuffle ever but it does the job for seriously dirt cheap and with some canny play moving down the three columns on the left can set you up a decent number of matches.

    Sure it's no Sentrybomb, but not every power in the game has to be.

    I've seen it do a good board shake up at 3 or higher levels. I think he can be used as a support character with a 3/5/5 or 5/3/5 build since both of his damaging abilities combined doesn't do as much as the top damage dealers' single abilities. I think his purple is better than Loki's Illusions. You said one of his abilities do slightly more damage than the other. I thought they were identical?

    I seriously can't understand how anyone could like it. It wastes time, and almost never does anything.

    It's a better than average sentry deterrent, which makes it not nearly as bad as people say IMO.

    +1 this, His health and his purple mean anyone Sentry bombing don't want to attack him.









    Also he's a dinosaur.

    I mean I spent a week or so of my time off working on it specifically to address claims like this, damned if i'm not going to get it some exposure.
