Strongest Characters/Teams and Why

[ahtitan]

Sorry for the thread necro...

Got interested in this game again recently, and started reading forum threads. I have 7 decks built, and only have 2 DC because I bought much less of it. But I thought it was amusing to read that Nightwing is pretty reviled as a card and he's on my DC Heroes team! I think I only bought one starter box of DC, so limited options for specials. But still...there he is.

It's not that he's reviled, so much that he just doesn't have any redeeming qualities from a deck-building perspective.

His grid is 2-6-4-6, which makes him very frail. Can't use 7s or 8s for defense, and doesn't have a proper defensive special to help protect himself or his teammates.

His low gird also means he can only play 2 teamworks. Compare that to character like Professor X (same grid point total), who can play 5 teamworks.

These might be acceptable trade-offs, if Nightwing had specials worth using. Unfortunately, he does not.

tl;dr - there's no reason to use nightwing over almost any other character in the game.
