New Teen Titans
Ok I know that not everyone will agree with me
when it comes to this card, but I feel this card
is simply awesome. Provided you use the right
card combos, you can create an unstoppable deck
with this card. All it takes is our old friend
Lost City. I see the doubt in your eyes. That is
ok. Trust me, I run this deck and it is simply
amazing how well it works.
I would definately consider this card for a
basic TT deck as well. A power up, although
small, can mean the difference between stun and
nonstunned, which in the world of TT is pretty
significant. This card combos very well with Red
Star as well and, in my opinion, is better than
Tamaran.
Ratings:
TT constructed deck - 4.5/5.0 ....I rated this
one high, but this card is much more effective
than it first appears.
Limited - 1.0/5.0 ....As with any card that
supports a previous set, you will not have
enought TT characters to validate choosing this
card.

New Teen Titans
This week, we'll be looking at some new plot
twists for some of the older (relatively
dspeaking) teams from the DC side.
Okay, does Teen Titans need any more help?
Seriously, this team has some great characters,
a killer plot twist, and some very useful
locations. Teen Titans has proven itself time
and time again, most recently at PC SoCal. Teen
Titans are big into team attacks, thanks to Teen
Titans Go! and Tim Drake, so New Teen Titans
will usually translate into another 2-4 points
of attack swinging into your opponent's defense.
None of that will translate to breakthrough, but
it usually allow you to attack with one less
character and still stun a higher drop. However,
TT decks generally want to attack with
everybody, so that everybody can ready when Teen
Titans Go! is played. This makes it a little
less useful for the standard TT build. On the
other hand, Red Star loves this card, and if you
miss a drop, it can still allow you to stun your
opponent's fatty. Still, something would have to
come out to play this card, and the Teen Titans
build is solid enough as is. Now in a
Titans/Brotherhood/Lost City build, this card
could be huge. Time will tell.
In Limited, this card will do squat for you in a
straight Superman event, but may save your bacon
in a mixed format. It's not really a top pick
unless you already have a pile of Titans in
front of you when this comes up in your pack.
Ratings:
Constructed - 3/5
Limited (MOS) - 1/5
Limited (Mixed) - 3/5

Dawn Yoshi |
Hey everyone.
Today's my first day writing for the Vs System
Card of the Day section. Just a little
introduction:
My name's Mike, but
most people from pojo may know me as Dawn Yoshi,
one of the Yu-Gi-Oh section moderators. While
Yu-Gi-Oh can be fun, I find Vs System to be one
of the best card games out there in terms of
both its system and how fun it is to play. I've
been playing this game since the release of DC
Origins. =)
To start off this
week, which covers new plot twists for the old
DC Origins teams, we got the New Teen Titans.
This card's effect is written in a nice and
simple sentence, yet it provides a powerful
boost to your team attackers...or does it? Well,
if you run this plot twist alone without any
real support, you'll most likely wish you were
running Savage Beatdown for an attack increase
instead. Compared to many of the plot twists and
locations available, New Teen Titans is pretty
lackluster. If you need to power-up Red Star,
Tamaran does the job and does it better. If
you're looking for attack boosts, Savage
Beatdown gets the job done. However, you could
always combine this card with T-Jet, which
benefits those who run multiple characters,
multiple versions of Teen Titans (such as Speedy
and Arsenal), and multiples of Tamaran and this
plot twist. That's about the only way to make
this plot twist worthwhile however.
In limited, it's
just as lackluster. You have three titans
characters in the Man of Steel set, they're all
rare, one has loyalty, and this only power-ups
attackers. I don't like using up precious space
in my 30 card deck with a risky and hardly
worthwhile card.
Constructed: 2/5
Limited: 1/5
