STRENGTHS:
Stealthy, Stealthy, Stealthy little "Throg" thanks
to "Among Weeds" which also allows him to hide in
water Submerged-style. Excellent attack value
throughout his dial. Defense is super as well,
sporting all three damage reducers.
Two more SPs help his effectiveness: "Leader of the
Alligator Army," a Poison-like damager to anyone in
or next to water within 6 squares of Throg. Once
foes get next to him, they have to contend with
Shape Change and Exploit Weakness via "Body of a
Frog." Indomitable tops this whole package off.
WEAKNESSES:
His life, while well-protected, is very short...and
his low damage and Toughness on his first click
urges players to push him immediately, shortening
his life even further. He depends on water and
hindering terrain to stay safe, but his very low
speed and boot symbol hampers his mobility severely.
His 4 range is poor.
CARDS TO CONSIDER:
ARMOR PIERCING is really good for his Attack SP.
ATLANTIS RISING is really good for his Speed SP. And
in Modern Age, the OPENED HYDRANT ensures he's got
water to hide in. Don't forget the YELLOW LANTERN's
AV boost to Exploit Weakness users like him.
IN SUM:
Thor, Frog of Thunder is the ideal chase piece — not
overpowered or a super-popular character but still a
fun and effective character. 3.5 of 5.
