    It can't disable it directly. You could Force Bubble all the tiles around it and it would shield those tiles for a turn. That's obviously not sustainable though.

    This is a cool idea. It does seem game breaking now. I am looking forward to seeing how the game evolves to support the new 5*'s. I just hope that 5*'s stay as the really powerful Marvel character like SS not like Ant-Man as a 4*.

    How often does it self destoys on its own match4+ cascade, when playtested?

    Will black hole have the same penchant for landing on an edge or corner as MnMag's red, SW blue?

    Not often since players generally place it towards the top of the board and/or the center. Being in the center of the board pretty well kills a horizontal match and only a very rare 4 of a kind drop in will smack it from above. Placing it up higher means that verticals aren't an issue and, again, horizontals may not be either.

    So it is wiser to put this were it generates less cascades... oh wait, we want cascades... icon_e_smile.gif

    I keep reading this like it's a joke post.

    59,000 hp? I understand it won't happen immediately and all that ****, but what in the absolute hell? That is 5x the highest 4*. It's practically a cheat code.

    When somebody gets this guy covered, the whole game is over at that point. Who beats that without a surfer of their own?

    I was all for the 5* idea until I saw this. It's closer to a 10*. It's going to ruin the game for anyone that doesn't have him.

    This seems like a bit of an over-reaction. Yes, 60k is a massive number. and if people would have that amount on Sept. 10, then it would effectively obliterate the meta.

    But that's not going to happen. Clearly demiurge wants it to take a very long time for anyone to cover a 5*. If it starts happening significantly faster than they expect, then they will make changes accordingly (either dropping the health levels, boosting 4*s, or cutting the 5* distribution rate).

    It's definitely a calculated risk that could have serious negative repercussions on the game, and will definitely completely reshape the meta. But it's also not something that will happen immediately. They will have some time to react.

    The introduction of it in the game is for people to spend to upgrade it. Imagine how much iso and money you will spend to maximize it.

    Pretty much exactly this. We've got contingency plans in place in case quite a few things that we're not expecting to have happen happen, such as the above. So if things do go pear shaped, we've got ways we want to deal with that. Obviously, we don't *want* to pull out any of the "Break Glass" scenario folders.

    The only my rooster who could defeat him would be the invisible woman and having much luck. My professor X is still quite weak to use. Just getting invisible to knock this guy right now.

    The black hole has other ways to be destroyed, not matchable and all but does it mean it is still colored? If it was a totally unique tile, not like a CD on top of a basic tile for example, you would obviously not have another two of the same tile to match it.
