Mobilize
Basics: What Enemy of my Enemy does for
variation decks, Mobilize does for mono-decks.
This card is going to be another one of those
cards that you need 4 of and can't seem to ever
be able afford 1 of.
Constructed play: If you are running a mono-deck
then this card is a must...enough said
Limited: Since this card is restricted to having
all of your characters teamed-up this card is
going to waste space more often than not.
However, you are going to keep this card anyways
because you are not stupid.
Ratings:
DCMA constructed - 4.5/5.0 ...This card is the
perfect compliment to Enemy of my Enemy
GA constructed - 4.0/5.0 ...It is all in the
deck you play and how you play it.
Limited - 3.0/5.0 ...This only works if you are
teamed-up.

Mobilize
I think we all know what this card does my now.
It was the most hyped up card before LoSH
Prerelease and everybody was talking about it.
It's a searcher that has its power compared to
Enemy of My Enemy. This card for the price of
any another card can find a character in your
deck that shares a single affiliation with ALL
your characters in play. That means that first
to actually play the card you have to discard a
card, unlike EoME it can be any card. Second,
you have to have at least one character in play.
Thirdly, the character you have to pick has to
have an affiliation that is shared by all your
in play characters, if you are playing a mono
team deck there wouldn't be any problem. Also
its not printed affiliation like EoME so
team-ups and Crisis on Infinite Earth will also
work really well. This card is great for the
teams that don't have a solid searcher, and in
decks that can fit both EoME and Mobilize will
have ridiculous character searches. MY only
problem with this card is that I think its
ridiculously overpriced atm, and will see if it
settles to near EoME prices.
Golden Age: 4/5 I think EoME is a little better
because decks here have more mixes of teams for
toolboxing, but don't be surprised if Mobilize
helps mono team decks resurface.
Modern Age: 5/5 Really good here, another great
searcher besides EoME.
Silver Age: 5/5 Yeah this card will probably
live up to the hype.
Limited: 5/5 In draft you have to be really dumb
to not pick this, it paid for this draft and the
next draft already. Also it makes your deck that
much better. This also applies in Sealed if you
opened it make sure you play it, and also pray
you don't have to switch decks.

This won’t take long…
Mobilize
Plot Twist/3
As an additional cost to play Mobilize, discard
a card.
Search your deck for a character card that
shares a team affiliation with all characters
you control, reveal it, put it in your hand, and
shuffle your deck.
DC Modern: 5/5
Silver Age: 5/5
Golden Age 5/5
Overall: 5/5
That was quite possibly the shortest review I’ve
ever written. If you get 4, sell them for more
that a hundred dollars. A piece.

Mobilize
This is by and far the money rare for this set,
and for good reason. Generic search has been
something that had been lacking for a while
until Enemy of My Enemy burst onto the scene.
It's a great card, but mono-team builders were
still waiting for a search card that would allow
them to be competitive. Teams like Arkham
Inmates and Sinister Syndicate don't have their
own search card, so to make use of them, you'd
need to team them up with another team, which
diluted their power and made them a thematic
mess (for those who care about that sort of
thing, anyhow). Now, all you need is to have
your guys on the field teamed up, and you can
search for a character card of that affiliation.
Mobilize rewards the one and two team
deckbuilder, and it'll be interesting to see
what formerly benched teams will get a fresh
start and new life.
In Limited, Mobilize is a better card in Draft
than in Sealed. The Legion set has two really
versatile teamups in United Planets HQ and 31st
Century Metropolis, so if you draft wisely, you
can get your guys teamed up early enough to be
able to search out a card with Mobilize. In
Sealed, you're usually at the mercy of your
pulls, and if you're forced to splash too much,
then Mobilize can quickly become a dead card in
hand.
Rating: 5/5
