Who should be the Physical Team Leader w/+20% Turn Meter ?

As team leaders, both Martian Manhunter (energy) and Cheetah (mystic) give the entire team +20% Turn Meter at the beginning of the match.

In your opinion, which physical character would be a good candidate to get this skill in a future rework?

This could really help balance the game out and give us a few more team comps that are viable in PvP.

I presume you mean Batman: CC since he's the real Batman.

Incorrect. WGD is OG all day

WGD all day! Make him OP!

WGD is so awful...but maybe this could be part of a rework for him. He sure needs it.

I watched M4's recent stream of the reworked characters. He used WGD and kept trying over and over to get his Team Leader skill to activate. Took a long time. Basically worthless. Can't rely on it at all.

His "heal" is pretty bad too. Barely does anything.

If you think WGD is awful you don't deserve to use him

WGD isn't awful at all. Granted, his leader ability isn't good but the rest of his kit is amazing. His heal is a heavy overheal and grants 100% turn meter up to a toon while removing debuffs and another move can reduce cooldown of all abilities on his team by 1. He is also the best character to purge buffs when facing invisible enemies.

He's easily one of the best utility characters in the game and the best Batman.

I was trying to think of someone not in game and there isn't a better option then this

Reverse_Waterfall•

Thanks! TM manipulator, maybe cooldown shortener, maybe assists. Make him a tactical master with little physical ability of his own but gets the best out of his team.

2
FreedomFromUOP•

That's a pretty good idea. Awareness seems like it should be part of his kit too.

Oh yes, smart smart smart

#NIGHTWING

Come'on - you know it's true! That along some other tweaks

+5% additional Turn Meter for Bat Family or Titans.

3
MarcusForrestMultiverse Observer :DonnaTroy-L:•

It would break Bat Family characters even more - I think limiting it to Titans would be acceptable. Or I'd like to see his third, the one that calls assist, tweaked to

''Heavy damage and call Assist on an enemy. 70% chance to call a second Assist. If a teammate is a Titan, also call his assist.'' - potentially 3 call assists right there, oof!

 

Nightwing shouldn't be about dealing damage, but enabling his team - he should also impede his enemies, being the master acrobat that he is. Converting evasion ups to evasion downs would be ace, or even stealing them - he'd ironically be a solid counter to Batgirl teams too

GAEA, Black Canary OR DEATHSTROKE. Should be the candidate's

Jay Garrick but they missed🤦🏻‍♂️

Yes, put the Strength Ups on another skill and add the Agility to his basic stats where it belongs.

Perfect opening for a Leader skill.

5
ARAR_EDGAR•

Yes that* would be a great rework.

mikeydangerous:12:•

I would rather it be a counter and not another toon to cement the speed meta. So why not Deathstroke with a 22% TM down on the enemy team to start the match?

Two face. 50% chance for +20% tm up, 50% chance for 30% shield for all allies at the start of the battle

FreedomFromUOP•

I was thinking Nightwing. As team leader he should also give the rest of the team Invisibility on Turn 0.

That would enable several of the other Bat characters plus you then wouldn't need a Taunter.

If everyone has invisibility no one does

I read that in the voice on Syndrome...

FreedomFromUOP•

He gives Invisibility to the rest of the team. Nightwing himself does not have Invisiblity (for himself) in his powers. He mainly uses Evasion to survive.

1
MarsupialNo2270•

Not exactly true. It still prevents retaliation, which is arguably the most important part of invisibility.

I’d add in somebody new like Wildcat or Hourman, someone who would be a red, but would have leadership experience at the same time

Mister Terrific

World’s 3rd smartest man giving his team an advantage.

Deathstroke would really give him a nice boost in relevance. That, and a boost to his stat. His kit, on paper, is already solid - but he lacks the stats to match.

Nobody. Two is already too many.

My vote would be Amanda Waller. Ultimate spy would be "prepared" for any fight

Not to nitpick but can't Cheetah grant it out of team lead position?

This seems like a good thing for Deathstroke though.

FreedomFromUOP•

As team leader, Cheetah gives the team +20% turn meter before the match starts. Then she attacks on her first turn.

As non-leader, she can give the team +20% turn meter on her first turn. Then you would have to wait until her 2nd turn to attack.
