THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY: This is my favorite design I have done so far. The first game was a blow out, Grim Reaper and his Legion dominated, the Avengers didn’t stand a chance. Doc Ock and Wonder Man with a boost and height advantage are really beefy. The second game on the other hand… Superman set his sights on the OM Hub that is Grim and went to smashing. After Grim had fallen the team started to fall apart and Wonder Woman went to town on them. The possibilities with team building for this guy is awesome. Being an OM hub can make him a target, but the healing can keep him around for a while. I would like to see some more tests putting him up against some good synergy or heavy hitters. Other than that, I think the 260 point cost is good but may need to be bumped to 265.
