It's a lot cleaner to have power names connected to exactly specific powers.

I don't see a reason not give his power a new name here. Seems like it could be 'Tactical Subterfuge' or 'Antagonistic Tactics' or whatever else. The current name feels a bit of an odd fit anyway for Deathstroke IMO.

Yea if the name changes
Abstain otherwise

Antagonistic Diversion or Antagonistic Tactics?

TACTICAL DIVERSION
Before taking a turn with a Unique Hero you control that is a Leader or Soldier, you may reveal an "X" Order Marker on this card. If you do, all figures engaged with Jack Flag subtract 2 from their Defense numbers for that Hero's turn.

It's a re-use, with only the 2 class callouts swapped out for 2 other callouts. Everything else remains the same. We've done this on several powers before. I'm not opposed whatsoever to a name change, but it needs to be decided and made consistent how we treat powers where you swap out a callout. If we go with a new name here, we need to go back and update any powers that do it as well with a new name. Not having any of this inconsistent nonsense.
