Today's review is Iron Man from
Mutations and Monsters
Hey there Pojo faithful, after a long
hiatus I am back.
Let’s just say that a steady schedule of full time
job and night class kills anyone’s free time.
I know I have said it before, but I will try to keep
up a little more than I have been recently.
Also, for those who were confused about
my article that was posted, it was for the YuGiOh page.
ALSO, welcome to Iron Man week, in
celebration of the movie.
I don’t know about you, but I think it is going to be
awesome, and is worth only have 3 hours of sleep for work to
see.
This is Iron Man from the Marvel Zombies
storyline….something I really need to get around to reading.
He is a Super Rare, 70 points, 8 range 1
target, 6 clicks of life, a flier, and no team
Speed:
Nothing, even the
numbers aren’t great…that sucks
Attack:
Decent
numbers…pretty consistent actually...EE sucks with 1 target,
Steal Energy has its uses, but is going to be tough to pull
off anything with 1 damage at that point
Defense:
Standard numbers, stays pretty decent from range,
steal energy and ESD is a real bad combo
Damage:
Low, but 4 clicks of
perplex is great
The Good:
4 clicks of perplex
…he can taxi
Decent attack numbers
The Bad:
No movement powers
Not enough damage
Bad power combinations
Doesn’t do anything special to
help a team
Feats:
Armor Piercing is a
necessity, since you need it for the EE and SE.
Besides that I really would not waste the points, and
even then AP is risky…do you really want him to be 80
points?
Overall:
Really, there is nothing special about this guy, and
the only reason to ever really want him is to be that rich
guy who runs the marvel zombies team.
All the perplex works great, and on a monster team he
could help out, but he is just too many points for too
little. Back in
the day Vulture, ICWO, and Oracle on the card could
basically do the same job for a lot less points, but the
glory days of old are gone…and we are left with this.
Constructed/Unrestricted:
1.5 / 5 (perplex
only reason)
Sealed/Draft: 3 / 5 (perplexing taxi plus the bragging
rights of pulling him)
Overall:
2 / 5
“Heroclix….they’re
cool, addictive, and available….the things practically sell
themselves.”
