He's technically on the forum, but I don't think he visits much anymore and sticks to the facebook group. But yeah, he's been around since the really early days.

I really can't decide which way to go. 4/4/5 gives a6 AP and 3 AP skill, and it makes his red a quick two turn option if you need to find a way to shut down a countdown, but 5 AP for blue means you can turn 3 blue that are near each other into a 5 for without any AP loss.

Im personally debating between 5/4/4 and 5/5/3: the purple doesn't seem like it needs to be at 5 since I like actively matching blue anyways. 3AP red vs 2AP red is tough though, since 2AP is a lot better than 3...

I've got a 4/2/5 so I can finish him off 4/4/5 or 5/3/5 if I want. I believe 5/3/5 is the only option for DD. The stun from will hit whichever opponent matches blue, which may not be the opponent you currently have targeted. The only case where an opponent with blue as a minor colour will activate the stun is if they match-4/5 in a line and the detonation removes the trap tile. This effectively means the stun is "untargeted" or perhaps "autotargeted" as well as being randomly placed. This is just about the opposite of what you want a stun to be - you want to target the high threat enemy and take them out at a tactically appropriate time (enemy Thor has enough AP to cast his Red and Yellow, so there's a good chance he's going to chain some attacks next turn). Red still has the same limitations as to who counts as matching it and will therefore take the damage, but damage is damage, and for Purple it doesn't matter who matches it, I get ALL THE AP.
