Pojo's VS System Card of the Day

  Chameleon, Reep Daggle

Card #DLS-005

------

Date Reviewed: 06.xx.07

Constructed Rating: 2.50
Limited Average Rating: 2.00


Ratings are based on a 1 to 5 scale
1 being the worst. 3 ... average.
5 is the highest rating.

 
Jokerkiller Chameleon, Reep Daggle
Legionnaires uncommon
3 cost flight 5/4

Chameleon has a semi useful ability. I say that because besides burn there’s not a whole lot of effects targeting you. This is why Eye of Agamotto is a crap rare. If either said target effect that targets a character then it would be great. Chameleon’s size if ok needs a bigger attack since most 3 drops anymore are 6/6. The Legionnaires are good team for under drops and team attacking so his size shouldn’t be a big deal. I think though Chameleon is about my 3rd choice for a 3 drop from this team. I’d take Shrinking Voilet, XS, or Karate Kid.

Overall rating 2.5 / 5 Chameleon’s just about par not completely worthless but far from game breaking.

You know, I could conceivably power up the Chameleon from Sinister Syndicate with this card, if it wasn’t trademarked…

Legionnaires/3/5/4
Flight
Remove a Cosmic counter from a character you control > Negate target plot twist or payment effect targeting you. Use this power only once per turn.

I don’t know Legionnaires that well, so I’ll just do this logically. If I were playing Legionnaires, I’d kinda want to swarm. This card is iffy in the swarm department, but the stats are okay. Next, in the ability department, I can negate an effect or plot twist targeting me. Wow. I sure do need to target all those prevalent and broken effects that target a player and not effects that target characters. Wow. And finally, like most of the cosmic characters in Legionnaires, Cosmic with no cosmic ability. Wow.

Modern Age: 1/5
Silver Age: 1/5
Golden Age: 1/5
Overall: 1/5

Wow.

Chameleon, Reep Daggle (Legionaires)

3 cost, 5 ATK, 4 DEF
Flight

Remove a cosmic counter from a character you control >> Negate target plot twist or payment effect targeting you. Use this power only once per turn.

Alrighty... lets start with the basics. 5/4 for 3 is about standard (4/5 being the average, I do believe). Flight is helpful. His ability is pretty neat, if you have access to plenty of Cosmic counters. Negating Plot Twists and payment effects that target you can be pretty handy.

Sealed: 2/5 You probably won't see enough Cosmic cards in sealed to make good use of him.

Constructed: 4/5 As he has cosmic, you'll get at least one good shot out of him.

5/4
Flight, Cosmic
Legionnaires

““Stupid Legionnaires.
“Be a Varokian Dungbeast, Cham.”
“Can’t I be a puppy instead?”
“No we need a dungbeast!”
“Stupid, stupid legionnaires””
-Chameleon

I have to apologise for ever dissing the Legion. I’ve been reading Mark Waid’s run on Legion of Superheroes, and it rocks. Seriously it is awesome. And if you don’t agree, I have only one thing to say on the matter;

“Eat it Grandpa”

Now to business, Cham has okay stats and an interesting effect, negating plot twist and payment effects targeting you, as in you the player. The effects that target a player specifically are mostly burn related. So this can be useful. However Cham should also negate any effect played against you that says target opponent must, or cannot do X or Y. Which is actually pretty good when you think about it.

To finish, I like flight. It’s always useful and cosmic means that Cham can help with the Legion’s cosmic counter theme.

All in all not a bad character.

Sealed: 3
Constructed: 3
