Hello, loyal Pojo Heroclix fans. It's
been far too long, but your favorite (?) HC reviewer
is back with a Top Ten of 2008 list. CRISIS
(released Feb. 2008), BATMAN ALPHA (May), SECRET
INVASION and FANTASTIC FOUR (July), and ARKHAM
ASYLUM (Oct) all qualify.
For each selection I'll include up to 10 reasons it
made my Top Ten (or at least try to). For pieces
already reviewed, I'll include links to the original
review.
1. 3 Team Abilities (AND corresponding team
symbols).
His natural Bat-Stealth and Special-Power-granted
Outsiders and Titans symbols give him great
flexibility for team-building. Nice to have the
healing option of Teen Titans or the mini-outwit
ability of Outsiders for a few clicks. Which leads
to the next thing...
2. He can't lose his best TA.
Perma-stealth makes his SP-granted ESD and Combat
Reflexes hard to deal with...
3. ...giving him an effective 19 DV.
Only a few characters can circumvent this, making
him a tough KO, especially when he's played to
support other pieces.
4. Very feat-friendly.
Thanks to his Bat-Stealth, he can safely affect the
field with Contingency Plan. Or, with a push,
Brillian Tactician. Similarly, his multiple team
symbols give him unparalled flexibility with
Inspiring Command (or Mercenary, on other pieces).
Or, if you want to use him more aggressively, try
Takedown or Stunning Blow. To THAT end...
5. ...he's very mobile.
Leap/Climb all dial long gets him in and out of
trouble nearly at will.
6. He's tough down his dial.
Even after taking hits, the Flurry-granting SP
"Fisticuffs" and Outwit make him dangerous both in
close and afar.
7. All for 79 pts.
Even equipped with the expensive BT feat, he's still
under 100 points.
His damage is a bit low for his cost, so he's low on
the list. But he's got so much to offer -- mobility,
support, offense, featability and high defense --
that he deserves a spot.
