I would like to apologise for my lack of posting of late, Mario Kart has taken over my life for the past week or so.
So, I figured I would give you the run down of my verdict on the previews thus far. Captain America looks solid, he doesnt look like he will be abusable on the scale of punisher, but he looks like maybe he could be really strong. One of the mid to high end legendary characters.
Now the hulk, he could go either way. He could be like the juggernaut was. When previews were coming around he looked like the legend to beat, but he was just completely swarmed with an influx of better legends. The hulk could be one of the obvious go-to legends such as Punisher, Wolverine or Jean grey or he could be a reluctant back burner such as Magneto, Ghost Rider or Juggernaut. I am currently under the thought that he will be a front runner. Though with only a few cards previewed to date it is looking like these will be the make or break cards. Any legend that has the ability to ready ones self is going to be one of the more powerful legends, but out of 5 previews so far, 2 have had ready effects and 3 have had free stuns/KO’s I am definately thinking that pretty much regardless of what the newer previews show he will be a back breaker.
The Worldbreaker for example is a little iffy, my first thought is that he is ridiculous, but my other thought is that an character with a big 8 in the corner should say ‘I win’, so the problem with him is that you have to control no other characters. This means that you don’t automatically win when you play him. There are ways around this as a pre combat Join Us Or Die followed by some Righteous Anger says that a direct attack for 20 will win the game. Or you could always Bodyslide a cable out of play get him stunned in your opponents attacks then directly attack with Bodyslide.
The Strongest one there is, up tonight is…iffy. For a legend stamp a stun for a cost should be a pretty powerful effect. This is, but stunning your hulk, who will most likely be your only character to KO just one attacker. The effect is good, but I am not sure if it is that good.
