I threw together a quick card in the MSE...



Without being able to tweak the text, I thought that it wasn't too bad.

Oh, BTW, none of the others things on the card are right.

Thank you Whitey, and though I don't think it is your opinion or intention, you are proving my point for me. Each card we create, I buy the figure, base it, and then have the cards professionally printed on glossy cardstock, and I have noticed that a lot of these cards with this small of text is really difficult to read, and I have perfect 20/20 vision.

It's pretty small ... Whitestuff will probably hate me for throwing this up there, but do we really need "No More Mutants"? Isn't that a one-storyline type of power for a character who's been around forever and has been part of the Avengers and involved heavily with the X-Men both? It seems unfair to tie her so strongly to a single storyline like that, no matter how big a role she played.
Also, taking that off (and saving it for something like a scenario) would clear up sooo much space on that card.

Good point, and I agree.

[whitestuff]

I think that you are right Bats.

No more mutants would be better off in a scenario. It was a one off deal, I just liked the idea of it.

I'm happy to see Magical Resistance on the card now, but it's just a power that references other Magical Resistance wielders? I'm not huge on that ... in fact, I'd prefer something like:

MAGICAL RESISTANCE
When Scarlet is attacked by a normal attack, the most wounds Scarlet may take for this attack is one.


It's like one shield defense without requiring a shield and shows how powerful magic users use magic to keep themselves alive longer.

She uses Magic to resist normal attacks and then the Magical Resistance power is used in other magical powers as a reference power to give her additional resistances.
Anyway, that's my preference for the power.

This was kind of missed.

Is this the preferred Magical Resistance wordage?

I actually do like that, but with a slight twist that I think you and Bats will like as well.

MAGICAL RESISTANCE
When Scarlet Witch is attacked by an opponent's figure that does not have the Magical Resistance special power, the most wounds Scarlet Witch can take for this attack is one.

[IAmBatman]

I do like that twist! Makes them more vulnerable to other magic users, which seems thematically correct to me.
Yeah, I like it like that. (oooh baby, I like it like that).

Settle down there Mr. Newlywed.

Oh, and I really like the latest version of Magical Resistance. Kind of like Flash's Evade helping him against non-Superspeed figures.

See, I can keep my mind out of the gutter.

[IAmBatman]

Superspeed is not a power I possess as Mr. Newlywed ... if you get what I'm saying.

[Hahma]

Well, a closet full of Viagra probably helps.

[IAmBatman]

Please ...

Spoiler Alert!

Extenz, come on!
