The randomness will make it slightly harder to make a team around him, but you're always going to use him in some way. Maybe a good pairing with FalCap, since there's no color overlap and FalCap doesn't care what kinds of tiles MK makes?

Mawtful wrote: The Black ability doesn't really sound like a black ability (unless the drawback is that you heal instead of create special tiles). Is is true healing or fake healing? If it's true healing it's worth noting that because the heal is a part of the ability and not a passive, it will still resolve if you use this to kill the last enemy standing.

The way it's worded suggests true healing, and the drawback is that normally you create enemy Attack tiles when using it.

Special Tile - 0 AP - (PASSIVE) At start of battle this power will randomly be one of three powers shown to player with animation that will create a Special Tile when matching Black, Purple or Green tiles. Damage - 12 AP - Deals damage to a random enemy. Hmmm.... A power that heals. Two powers that are random. Random is usually magic Generates special tiles when matching black purple and green. Who's got a movie coming out later this year?

stochasticism wrote: Great. So the purple option for the passive is one-third as good as obws passive. On top of that obw steals AP. That's great design, strictly outclassed by a 2*. If you are going to go with boosting match damage at least make it boost all three of his colors. Right now it's just an awful option to get assigned randomly.

On the flip side, maybe pairing him with a 1 cover Chulk and IW mean he's just that good that he can hold his own without teammates On another more positive note: his art looks incredible. People have been complaining about the more recent chars like WM and Kate (whose animations I actually like a lot), but I don't see how they can here.
