The tile destruction is nice, but compared to Twin Pistols, a 3* power, is not particularly good? Twin Pistols costs 3 more but destroys a second block of tiles and deals the same damage as M. Excello with 6-7 blue in the pool, which I expect to be the average. For the same cost, Embiggened Bash (another 3* power) deals so much more damage, that you'd almost have to have 30 blue in the pool to match it with M. Excello. Even the healing ability is inefficient! It may be cheap, but when it doesn't compare favourably with Beast's (which is pretty **** already)! Medical Marvel costs 6 AP more but heals almost the same amount to ALL your characters, in addition to placing protect tiles. And it doesn't stun him! And he doesn't need to wait until the perfect conditions! (by the way, some people seem to believe that TAH's is true healing but it is actually not). After playing with him, I'd say that his best ability is by FAR, his blue, though it's not phenomenal (they really should have allowed us to place the CD tile, instead of it being placed randomly). So X/5/X for me. 5 green seems the better option but realistically, I'll be bringing along someone with a better green ability (almost anyone) to take advantage of the green production. I'm surprised that in a world that now includes 5*s they release 4*s this weak.
