    Yeah, I haven't even attempted to decipher what this one does. Will find out in welcome to shield!

    4* Zombie Dr Strange? The yellow is similar to Dr Strange's. Blue also looks like a slightly better version of Dr Strange's. They have the same colour set and arrangement of Blue/Purple/Yellow.

    Doesn't seem to be good not all all.. almost complicated as Legion. But worse, at least Legion is more useful than this.

    That blue repeater will deactivate an enemy offensive damage.
    And that purple is a swiss knife, so it's interesting.
    This character will be in another powerful form as long as having red AP (blood).
    It seems pretty interesting and fun.

    4* Colossus might have a Steel Form that is impervious to match dam?
    Black Tom with the jewel of cytorrak? But hardly a heals allies type of guy
    Could it be Skaar? It feels magic-y with the colored spell effects component, and a rage form using red? He’s half-ling
    It’s gotta be Roberto Sunspot though! the colored effects could be a New-Mutants themed team ability like fury. The invincible form.

    Hmm sunspot/Blade/kang?

    I think this character sounds fairly interesting. Could be a Strange variant as mentioned above. Yellow passive dealing damage when enemy uses a power and also heals team is pretty nice, if in form taking no match damage and boosted ability damage.

    Blues repeater isn't fortified which is unfortunate because it has to be on the board to negate the target enemy using abilities and preventing damage being directed to this new character. Still cool in theory.

    Purple adds a tad of board shake and if purple is chosen color those trap tiles eat damage the character would take. Purple offers a choice of other things like stun, direct damage, aoe, healing, little pricey at 8 AP though.

    No real cheap abilities but seems like an interesting kit. Depending on who this character is would be interesting to pair with Strange for double passive damage when enemies use abilities, especially goons and mi dress maybe.

    Watch it be Rintrah...

    I'm hoping to see Zombie Strange. The release of the new support (Kamar-Taj) got to have some relation to this new character, and Dr Strange has this affiliation as well. Also, losing red ap will cause him to lose his form. The most interesting power is the purple trap tiles which function similarly to 3/4 Elektra black trap tiles. We are looking at a minimum of 4 trap tiles created. Just have your teammates go airborne and away and he will be taking zero damage. You do need someone who can create purple aps/tiles for you though.

    It doesn't say there is any limit on casting Blue. So technically this character could disable the enemy team by getting 3 Blue repeaters on the board. Not super useful vs tile movers but would be handy in PvE against goons, mindless ones, symbiotes etc.

    The Blue will also have uses against characters with passive damage (Polaris, 5 Switch etc) since they would then only be able to damage this character while the Blue repeater is on the board. If someone else is tanking then their passive damage every turn will be doing nothing.

    At least we get to select the location of the blue repeater. That should help a little in keeping it around for a few turns.

    You could bring GGoblin or Cable to fortify it, but then you have the distinct disadvantage of having GGoblin or Cable on your team. :D

    There are many characters who can fortify tiles in the game now: Shuri, Hulkling etc. If you're looking for someone who can do it passively, 4* Human Torch can do that.

    ok, so first we have a blue power that creates a repeater with 3 effects, it (i) does damage, (ii) disables powers for the target, and (iii) prevents the target from damaging anyone except this character. it's expensive at 9ap, but might have some uses if one can conceal this character behind a tank and thus effectively neutralize and enemy target. This would go way up in power if it also disabled passives.

    Second we have a somewhat expensive power (8ap) that is basically a reskin of Prof $'s purple. You pick a color on the board and get a predictable effect based on how many tiles there are [edit: you pick a 3x3 zone and the effect is based on what color tiles are in the zone. So still predictable, but with a lower cap on possible outcomes rhan my first impression]. Blue for stun seems like the most obviously useful, with the red nuke, green aoe, and black ap theft also having uses. I doubt anyone will ever use yellow burst healing. purple trap tiles seem like a knock-off elektra, which is great for one v. ones, but seems redundant with the blue power already in the kit and is unlikely to see lots of use.

    the final power is a phase-change power, with a carbon copy of strange's flames of faltine passive. Obviously strange's passive is great, so that will be useful in the 4* tier. Not sure if the phase change element will even matter, and even more defense for this character seems superfluous.

    Overall a moderately interesting kit, mostly because it brings strange's passive to the 4* tier. Otherwise this character will not have much of an impact since the 4* tier is so wildly bloated already.

    I am guess MCU The Ancient One since this is Woman's History Month and she has tie to the new Kamar-Taj support.

    That's a good thought. How does it link with Half at Fault though? Or have we given up on trying to work out the cryptic labyrinth of the clues? 🤣

    Sure, but for 27 Blue AP, I'd rather send the team Away and win the match instead
