Where's the New Character Sunspot thread?

Wolfsbane is primary feeder. Seemed like there might have been a secondary but i didn’t pay attention closely to the rewards i got.

S0kun is on paternity leave so updates on here might be a bit sparse for a few weeks.

So how are people feeling about him? (Having read his in-game powers at least).
His powers are cheap and incentivise you to have someone with stronger red, yellow and purple match power on your team.
Seems like a reasonable AP battery support with potentially good team damage traps.
Though they do have to match them, rather than ‘cause them to leave the board’ - SIGH! I thought the Sinister re-work had set the new expected benchmark for trap tile characters…
Obviously I’ve no idea what the powers look like at 5 covers and at Lvl450, or 550…

Is it just me or does in the in game image of Sunspot look more like Pete Wisdom instead of Roberto?

My first thought was... "Why did they go with that look for him?"

My second thought was..."suit wearing boy band with him, Mr Negative, and 3* Hit Monkey."

But I also have girls in the house who love Kpop Demon Hunters so Saja Boys might be the cause of that.

Obviously we will see a Classic Sunspot costume in about 5 days, just $10.

Well, Google AI has this to say about the character;

Gameplay in Marvel Puzzle Quest
Resource Management: Sunspot introduces a skill cap through the management of his solar charges, which are vital for his powerful abilities.
Attack Focus: His gameplay emphasizes consistent damage through basic combos and the strategic use of his special attacks and Flare States.
Countering Shocks: His Flare States are disabled when opponents apply Shock, creating a strategic challenge for players.

No further character analysis required!
Seems they really are able to make huge changes with the Unity engine 🤪

Seems like a character I would like to play, kind of the Polaris of trap tiles I guess. We’ll see over time if that’s true.

Weirdly enough to me he looks like Jason Blood, but that's the wrong Universe/Comic Book Company.

"Begone the form of man, arise the demon Etrigan!"

A Rhyming Demon is a good call for the Halloween season.

That was my second thought as well, but came to the same conclusion about the wrong universe. But since we are now in the Unity engine era, I'm wondering if that is more than just a name and is now a new business model? Marvel and DC United in one game!
