THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY: This Mantis design is really elegant. I really dig Empathetic Link as well as her healing herself/Groot. That's something that makes the Guardians such a fun faction, a lot of the abilities complement each other in small ways: Star-Lord’s distracting fire, Groot’s Branch Carry, Rocket’s Support Fire, and now Mantis with her Organic Healing and OM Management. Job well done with a simple effective design.

Tests are a bit inconclusive, especially the 2nd game which has Hasbro Cap and seemingly Mantis did nothing. :Shrug:
In the first game she was played at 210 and only used for 1 attack.
So I’m not sure if these are enough to close her out, unless Ronin and Soundwarp feel good enough to settle her at 200 as-is.
