Cool design Smithy. I like Viegon's suggested change. I'd also suggest taking 1 attack off the special... 3 attack and 10 range is pretty good, especially without LOS and with the chance to attack again even harder.

I'd vote for batwing just to have another counter to mastermind builds. As of right now Cable and Darkside are the only characters that can touch that guy from a distance, so another cheaper option would be welcome in my opinion.

Cable is a telepath and therefore not affected by Masterminds ability. There are other telepaths, like Dark Pheonix and Manchester Black, but they only have range of 4. I did forget about Mentallo who is also a very good counter, but all things considered it's still a pretty narrow range of figures and I would be welcome to more options.

In that case, what about Martian Manhunter?

There are plenty of Telepaths, DocGlock's point is that there are very few with a range of greater than 4. Most have to get within walking distance to do damage. Martian Manhunter has a range of 3.

But has tons of potential in a counter army due to his ability to move every other member of your army :2cents:

There are a decent amount of figures that have abilities that do not require clear sight. DocGlock mentioned one Darkseid. Off the top of my head I can think of Professor X and Selene Gallio.

Matsermind is also affected by area of effect special attacks like Avalanche, Human Torch, Storm, Black Canary, Siryn, Banshee, some of the Iron men, Cyclops (as long as he is not behind a wall, since it requires line of sight and not clear line of sight) etc etc.
