I was happy to see Deathstroke, I don't think he's playable though   22 points and his cards aren't stellar.

At 22 points he's easier to use than at 23.  I could easily see Energy being a 4 - the dude just doesn't stop!
I'm not sure why he didn't make it into the legacy set.  Knockout, but no Deathstroke?  Justa seems wrong.
I hope you have a decent (& evil) Any Character Special lined up for Trigon.

Ya, he's a character that just kind of has to be that expensive.  I mean, how would you make him cheaper?  As is, he's very accurate, and since the game allows for characters up to 23 points, why not make a handful of them as accurate as possible?  I mean, as long as I've got plenty of characters at the other end of the scale (and I do).  22 points with an 8 and a 6 is totally playable.  And I think his Special array is pretty decent.  There's maybe one I'd consider revising, because I'm honestly struggling to see the advantages of a DQ over just a level 5 Any-Power attack, which isn't even a Special.  I like that it can just KO a target if they're at 15 total hits, but so could just a level 5 attack.  The DQ is harder to avoid or remove, but it's OPD and doesn't count toward Venture.  So I might just replace it with a big attack, an 11AP or something.  And Slade will probably get a good defensive Special in the first expansion, cause I know that's something he needs.
