I think GR is a solid buff overall. Green is still meh, but Red and Black both got better. Still probably not top-tier by himself, but he's going to team well with the current Medusa and/or Carol meta. Thumbs Up!
Kingpin on the other hand... I think that black change is a nerf... Increasing the AP cost, and making it require a CD Tile? I understand the damage was increased, but only ~1k, not really significantly. The Team damage with three CD Tiles is ok, I guess...
A better way to buff KP's black? Leave as it was (no CD Tile Damage, +Damage w/1-CD Tile) and add the 3-CD Tile Team damage you've added now. This sort of versatility would seem appropriate for the master strategist, Kingpin.
I love the idea of the System Reboot event. I look forward to playing it for ISO and covers. As someone else mentioned, it would be great if a similar event was available for all new cover releases.

Burning RubberThe cost has been increased to 12 Green AP (from 7). Damage has been significantly increased
Has it? I don't think that is significant. I was expecting 6 or 7 k
GR needed a tweak as he was a one trick pony but KP they have made worse.
Vhailorx said: Kingpin black is noticeably worse than before. Less single target damage, more expensive, and it destroys 3 cds to do moderate aoe damage. And can it even be used without a cd on the board?. Just terrible! I am stunned. This is on par with the carnage "buff" that make his black active.
carrion pigeons said: Okay.Now, I'll be the first to grant that you can't just directly compare two abilities without comparing the overall characters, but if you had asked me what a 270 4* aoe for 12 AP ought to look like, I'd have said something in the range of 5-6k. Not half that. The fact that his ability was pathetic before should indicate that a 40% boost to damage and an 80% boost to cost is not really appropriate. It isn't even a buff at all.
