Creates 3 Countdown tiles that activate after 2 turns, restoring 3 Red AP each. Iron Man is then stunned for 2 turns as systems reinitialize. Level Upgrades Level 2: Each Countdown tile also restores 3 Blue AP if you had 8 Yellow. Level 3: Each Countdown tile also restores 2 Green AP if you had 10 Yellow. Level 4: Each Countdown tile also restores 2 Purple AP if you had 12 Yellow. Level 5: Each Countdown tile also restores 2 Black AP if you had 14 Yellow. Takes all your yellow to cast, similar to Ares Onslaught for green, but has a variant effect based on how much yellow you had. May not be enough to push some people off of 5/5/3 but it would put an end to the 5/5/1 builds at the very least.

Gawd I hope his rebalance comes soon -- there's no other *** that's been sitting unused in my roster as long as he has (And that even includes pre-buff Daredevil).

He works very well with Human Torch in particular. Steve Rogers is good if you aren't worried about color variety.

Phaserhawk wrote: super easy simple fix for IM40 Red--Costs 10, no AP drain level dmg about that level. Covers just increase Damage. Blue--Costs 12, no AP drain increase the damage about 5%, upgrades do the same, with Stun etc. Yellow--Costs 10, upgrades to 3 allow you to get 1 AP of every color stun 2 turns. Upgrade cover 4, 2 of each olor. Upgrade Cover 5, stunned only 1 turn and you get blue,red,yellow generate 3 AP the rest 2 Done. IM40 is fixed and viable

There is 0 balance to be considered because the abilities are identical, and it removes the 5/5/1 problem. It's such an elegant way to fix this ability: why not implement it I ask?
