___________________________________________________________ THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY: Mantis is definitely a nice fit for the Guardians. The Order Marker flex is important for them, giving them some on the fly reorganizing where needed most. Her healing can certainly keep her in the fight just a bit longer, and certainly can be beneficial to Groot if he can survive the incoming attacks long enough. Taking the Order Markers for herself while still being able to heal Groot, with a chance at potentially removing an opponent's Order Marker, is a nice combo. Nerve Punch is a nice feature for the Guardians as it's a decent attack in its own right even at a low attack number, feels a bit like Gamora on a budget attack wise. Ultimately, she makes a great addition to the team, and an easy draft for other teams if desired. She had a couple of really good games where she over performed, but then had a few more games where she came in at what you'd expect or slightly below. I tried to be thorough in testing to make sure the really good performances weren't the norm. I'm feeling pretty good at 200 going into Public Testing for further analysis.

Re: The Book of Mantis (Initial)
Initials updated. Feeling pretty good at 200 thus far. Can't see any need for a point drop, and a point bump could be possible if she comes in hot more often than not, but through 6 games her average felt pretty spot on at 200.

Re: The Book of Mantis (Vote for Public Playtest)
No real rush, just figured we'd knock it out so it's ready when we get there.
Wording should be pretty simple since Nerve Punch is a re-use, and Organic Healing was molded from Aquaman I's healing verbiage. Empathetic Link did the same with Sage's Telepathic Tactician. I always try to take the wording from existing powers to make things as close to good as possible. |

Re: The Book of Mantis (Vote for Public Playtest)
Yeah, that's a solid showing. Could see some tweaks in cost/stats/whatever based on testing, since healing Groot seemed pretty scary, but I'm happy with her as-is. Yea

Also important to point out that the damage dealt would have been the same had Kraven been in her place, who is 200 points and has the same attack stat and Nerve Punch special power. In fact, he has Bolas and Big Game Tracker to make those wounds even greater. I think they make a fairly even comparison. Kraven has higher attack and movement potential, whereas Mantis has higher support potential and longevity(Kraven has 1 higher life, Mantis was averaging 2.3 wounds healed per game, so she has the slight edge there). All in all I'd say they come pretty close. |
