I’m just wish the latter played better (like Rogue). I just can’t see a way to make him competitive. Yeah there’s winfinite. But there’s options for that and like all Winfinite, it’s squishy and so can only work in PVE.

Before the movie I felt the same, but wow that guy can act.But to your main topic, that's a pretty good point, the only problem with it is I feel Nightcrawler's would be less about being airborne and more about just being agile/teleporting away. What I think would have helped spice up Nightcrawler was you put down a countdown tile (preferable fortified) and while it's on the board if someone were to damage Kurt, he teleports away evading the damage and hits his attacker for x damage (maybe even steals some AP in the process).

No he was great in the movie but he was still Vulture. He did good in that one role but he’s not iconic. We’ll also probably never see him again. Whereas someone like MCU Loki has became iconic by reprising his role so many times (plus the comic book character Loki is cooler than Vulture).To your second point they are already using the airborne mechanic to represent his bamfing. When he gets hit with an AOE attack he bamfs away (goes airborne).

Looking forward to seeing what a champed Kurt can do. He can bamf. He's one of my favorite characters from the second half of 2017 which is saying a lot considering how good Chavez and Vulture and Nico are.

They can use the recent Lockjaw as an example. His blue also uses the most color tiles on the board and the ability tells you, so they should be ability to code it. Sure thing! I'll pass that feedback along to them, and see if that's something they can include.

More players are starting to champ him and use him more, so an indicator on his Purple would make him much easier to utilize.

I spoke with the developers, and they've informed me that adding this specific dynamic display requires a significant amount of work to implement, so unfortunately they are unable to work on it at this moment in time. Having said that though, they've added it to a backlog list, and will see if they can revisit it once there is more bandwidth to address it.

He's one of my favorite characters from the second half of 2017 which is saying a lot considering how good Chavez and Vulture and Nico are. I’ve been sort of underwhelmed by him. I find Crawler and Professor to be too squishy. Maybe Rogue (who I know you dislike) as a meaty third to protect them? Though that wouldn’t work as she’d be my highest level (277), Kurt and X are tied at 274. Just curious what other teams you’ve ran him on.
Dormammu said: What I've discovered is that Kurt is a weak character. He has one decent-ish power that people keep pointing towards as justification for his use, but BAMF is unreliable at best. It can get you a winfinite, or it can fizzle into nothing. 50/50.This is unfortunate. Nightcrawler is a great character and he'll likely be my next champ due to Galactus event covers ripening on my vine. I'll probably champ him and then let him warm my 4-star bench next to Electra, IW, and other rarely used fours. Normally that doesn't bother me. With 60+ 4-stars they can't all be rock stars.But dangit, it's Nightcrawler. I want to use him.
sinnerjfl said: you can make whatever color you need
The problem with Nightcrawler, as I see it, is that the Power you need is often the color you have matched away, and thus not the most prevalent on the board... When I have tried BAMFing I usually end up with a dud color as the BAMF target.
You can obviously try to flood the board with a needed color, but most Powers like that are Purple too. I suppose you could run him with Riri Williams and Bl4de to get two non-Purple red-spamming colors though...
