    Seems like a strong character. His black would be pretty nice with falcon, besides his own CDs. (The most value would be out of a falcon cd tile)

    Even destroying his own tiles are okay with max black, that added 2959 damage is about the same as the 5 turn cd's from yellow.

    Also finally a character with > 3 cd's for hood.

    This character's cool. Is this Kingpin? It doesn't strike me as Scarlet Witch or Quicksilver. Wait. Ultron?


    It took a minute. MODOK!

    Got to be Kingpin. All of these moves require careful planning and a criminal level of intelligence to carry out successfully. Stealing AP is a crime, and using it for his own ends is even worse! He has high HP, and is a heavy hitter, but indirectly through his conniving. Since Daredevil comes out in a few days, it is almost definitely Kingpin. I just hope they give us some time between characters! They are only just now releasing Kamala Khan, we can't do a 4 star pve a week later! I really hope they start expanding reward structure for 4 star. My alliance lost its top players because we came in 52 place after a week of grinding.

    Is that a 10ap yellow that deals 10k+ damage? That might be the first decent countdown ability since sentry.

    And god damn, a 4* aggressive recon?

    I'm all kinds of interested.
  • SnowcaTTSnowcaTT Posts: 3,269 Chairperson of the Boards
    I'd be all kinds of interested if it wasn't 4*, so I had a chance to get more than four covers in six months (right about the rate I've been able to obtain the last several 4*'s).

    4*/3*/4*? That's---a little quick methinks.

    Synergy with Hood to get those countdowns going faster?

    Also anyone else feeling 5/4/4 since you can use LThor to generate the extra yellow ap?

    I'm going to guess this is the highly-anticipated "Lazy Bagman", with the regular Bagman adjusted in time for the start of Season XIII icon_lol.gif
    It keeps with the theme of Bagman affecting countdown tiles, right?

    Interesting looking character, though, in all seriousness.

    I think he has good synergy with Falcon, given that you *do* want to destroy Redwing's tile as soon as possible.

    Funny, I was going through my roster to see any other synergies, and all I can come up are characters you *don't* want to pair him up with for his black. So I presume his purple will be the power to max. Then I get to think who else would make good use of a bunch of yellow AP, and the only ones that makes sense is Thor and Hood (and with overlap on yellow and black I don't Hood is a good match either).

    Man this guy doesn't make friends with anyone. Really hope he's going to go through another reiteration before release. Also please delay this release as much as possible. I still have 1 day on Kamala Khan and I don't think I can take another mad rush.

    The purple is nothing like Aggressive Recon, which is why it's allowed to even exist. You're spending 8 AP to gain 8 AP, so it's not a net gain in theory (though likely a gain in practical terms since you can't always get the color you want or you might just pick up some purple AP anyway) but the enemy loses up to 6 AP so it puts you in an advantageous position for not much investement, assuming you have no other purple powers.

    The easiest way to combo into his black would be Loki. You can't rely on Falcon because that assumes the enemy has something you can pick up in the first place.

    I think we're looking on the wrong rosters to find the really powerful synergies. Imagine how this guy will look in a PVE node backed by two goons who can spam countdown tiles and give him the AP to blow them up in rapid succession. If he's the Kingpin it would be totally natural to see him with Maggia goons. Maybe we'll see a new PVE soon, with this guy at the helm.

    I don't see any point in going to Rank 4 in Purple. IMO, it's an AP generating ability, the enemy AP destruction is just a bonus.
    Destroying 6 AP (almost) guarantees that the opponent will need to make 2 matches to regain that AP, whereas destroying 5 means that the opponent will usually have to make 2 matches anyway, but might sometimes get a match-5 and regain the AP in 1 turn instead.

    Going 5/3/5 would give you 2 extra countdowns over 5/4/4, 1 additional strike tile generator and 1 additional big damage countdown.

    I actually think that 3/5/5 is probably the best build if you're looking for synergy with The Hood, since the strat is to use Intmidate to fire countdowns early rather than Unknown's black to blow them up for damage. Also, since Hood will still tank yellow, you want that 13k health pool out front so you'll be grabbing purple to generate yellow.

    I like this synergy with Loki for a 5/5/3 build. The base+ bonus damage from destroyed countdown tile at rank 5 is 5268, and 6 AP is easily achievable. With Loki by himself, I'll sometimes take the match-4 because I know I can kill him on my next turn. But Loki paired with Unknown, and I'm going to be checking to make sure I don't take 5k for my sins.

    Brilliant! I think you hit the nail on the head, especially since it's too early to release a new character, but more importantly
    next event is Thick as Thieves, which would make him the right villain!

    it drains ap like aggressive recon. Weird that you wouldn't catch that.

    Actually it doesn't drain AP like Recon in any way. Read it again. It "destroys" AP of the enemy's strongest color and it "generates" yellow. The only thing it really has in common with Recon is the color. Weird that you wouldn't catch that.

    4 star rarity so soon?
    Looks like he is gonna be the seasonal reward, and not ProfX.

    From an episode of Doctor Who during Eccleston's run, The Long Game. Eccleston played Malekith in Thor: The Dark World. Malekith confirmed.

    Or Doop. Definitely Doop.

    Black is okay but seems overall weaker than something like IF's purple (which admittedly is really really good), purple seems pretty tinykitty with next to no reason to go 5 covers in it, and while yellow sounds cool its more than likely complete tiny puppy. Look at how many tiles survive when Sentry casts WR. Unless you're a goon tinykitty them out every turn, 3 turn+ tiles don't survive. Even if one or two do go off its really not that devastating. Add in the fact that its a 4* and that'll it will take 3+ months to actually cover and it looks like another Elektra.

    This seems similar to goon CD tiles, however if I remember right, goons pop out stronger (strike) tiles at lvl 270! Pls balance accordingly!
