Previously, these powers had used Countdown tiles with short countdowns that replaced themselves when they went off. This was awkward to explain, hard for new players to understand, led to some subtle bugs, and limited our ability to create certain kinds of powers that interact with Countdown tiles.
Abilities that Target/Affected by Repeater Tiles (Implicitly or Explicitly):

Brigby said: Powers that stun a random character will now increase their stunned turn duration if the character was already stunned.When a player has two of the same character at the same level, the character that was selected last time will be selected by default the time the player enters the Character Select screen.
D4Ni13 said: "Tug of war champion" - would this imply a very strong man ? I wouldn't mind a 4* Colossus, since his 3* version is kind of underwhelming. But since his an X-men, I suppose he's not an option. Could it imply someone "pulling the strings" ? As a crime boss or something. I have no clue who this is. Is he Defenders related also ? Could Jessica Jones be somehow connected ?

Presumably because you can't control whether you stun someone who isn't already stunned.@Brigby - Would it be possible to get a list of powers which target CD tiles but not Repeater tiles? Or a list of powers that still do (whichever is shorter. I'm a reasonable guy).Can we also assume that Repeater tiles still count as "Special" tiles?Thanks

And:Powers that stun a random character will now increase their stunned turn duration if the character was already stunned.Excellent! This has definitely made me grumble in the past.
