    That's probably why.  All the changes they made make him better when he's paired with goons and worse for us to use.  Remember the maggia hat guy feeds him black too, so the increased cost actually makes that power better -- by the time that guy feeds him enough black to cast it, the other goons have already spammed a bunch of nonsense to blow up.

    Sometimes when they rework a character that was pretty complex, you can tell that they just sort of ran out of good thematic ideas, so they give them a monster nuke and head home for the day.  It usually works!

    I always point to Invisible Woman's last rework (out of about 12 she's had overall).  She has to keep the bubbles for whatever reason -- that was probably a lot of work to code in 2014? -- but instead of doing weird bubble stuff now they just stapled on a crazy big nuke (for a 4*) on her green.


    Robbie's green is just bad now.  I used him a lot these last few events and never bothered with it.  But his black is nuts!  For me it was hitting for like 110,000 on the conditional.  It's a good rework because he got better, but he is less interesting now.
