If you rostered his red or purple power, your ally won't be able to fire that rostered colour.Now, it creates charge tile and deal AoE to your own allies. I like his black power because it creates charged tiles in purple or red, which is SC favourite's colours. Gambattery wasn't a bug. His black was working as intended.

ThaRoadWarrior said: "lazy copy" is a dismissive way to describe what was going on in that brief window of time. Hawkeye, Dr STrange, Thanos, and Gambit all came out with 3* copies of themselves, ostensibly to make sure that lower tier players could get access to characters they liked that were above their means in the * structure. Doc Ock seemed remidial since 3* Ock had been out for awhile by that time. But it seemed to be important to them in those days to dupe up so people could keep playing their favorite characters as they grow in the game. But the power designs were not super inspired, and I think it hurt characters like Star Lord who are jumped up 3*s, and helped gambit who was a dumbed down 5*.

I believe that the "lazy character" ascription started with 3* Thor whose powers were an exact copy of the 2*, whereas 3* Cap is only mostly lazy and the first three Black Widows aren't lazy at all. To achieve the "make sure that lower tier players could get access to characters they liked that were above their means in the * structure" goal, the characters should be duplicated but with unique powersets, which is certainly where the game quickly landed after those lazy copies.I agree that "lazy" is a bit aggressive and a dig at the devs, but, as Hound noted, it has forum precedence and isn't currently a pointed complaint.
