Title: The Sinister Six
Post by: teesaw on November 30, 2014, 10:43:56 PM
Heroes For Hire inspired team-up card, with a little taste of X-Men: Original Team.   High-powered offensively...maybe a little bit too high powered...

Looks good to me. Very balanced. I dont think you made them too powerful on offense at all.

It's worth noting here that Doc Ock currently suffers from 'the curse of hillshire farms" and only has 2 OPD cards....I'm anticipating that his card from evils will be a big OPD, and give this card an extra bump..

Wow!  Quite an interesting take on an old favorite.  I've seen individual characters and specials for them all except Chameleon, but never together as a group.  So simple, so logical, yet I've never seen them done as a team before other than location cards.  Well done!

Love it. Love everything about it.

And your balance seems fine in terms of power level. If anything, Lizard is the special that's most frightening. 5-7-6-2 is a pretty good looking stat set, in my eyes.

Thanks for the feedback - like I said in the original post, it's an alternative to the Heroes for Hire - the Doc Ock inherent is a bit underwhelming, but for 20 points I could see this being an economical alternative in a lot of decks...you know, since it's not a 28-point grid or anything ;)

Thanks for the feedback, guys.  I get that this set was pretty vanilla, but I've got a few more coming that I think will be a bit more exciting...or at least I hope they'll be more exciting?

Right now I've got one hero and one villain in the hopper.  They're both characters who will give Hawkeye and Dr. Strange a run for their money for that fourth spot on your team...I'll probably release one in the next few days - any preference on which one comes first?
