Yes, but since only Wade Wilson has it, you can't have more than 1 in your army.

I thought there were Deadpool Corps plans?

Glad you brought that up, definitely need to figure out a way to draft the 5 members of the Deadpool corps together. I hadn't considered the fact they might share a name.

We can just do it similar to how we did Iron Man Mark V.

I like the Seek and Annoy idea and also like it at the start of the round, but instead of on the revealing of the X I think after losing initiative might be more appropriate. Though I do think that it wouldn't be too bad if he could do it every turn.

If we do another Wisecrack thing, we might have to change the text on Wisecrack like we did with Daring Decoy. It's probably a good idea to do that regardless just to avoid closing off design space.

I believe it's more of a movement power to get him into position to Wisecrack rather than another Wisecrack power...it kind of makes Punted more of a defensive power though.

Bats means that we'd have to reword Wisecrack if we're reusing it, so that multiple instances of the power can exist together more cleanly.

Technically it's not an issue in the write-up as it stands (since Headpool and Deadpool can't be drafted together by virtue of both being Wade Wilsons), but we are gonna have to arrive at some sort of solution for Deadpool Corps armies, so they're eventually gonna be co-draftable.

Still very much like the idea of the 'alternate reality' symbol. (Discussion prompted by Spider-Verse stuff starting here and continuing through the end of that thread) Way tidier than having Lady Deadpool break uniqueness on all of them and always requiring her for any of the Deadpool Corps members to team up.

I believe multiple Wisecracks could stack as is in multiple player games (3+) even without making it possible for one player to draft two.

I think the X Marker should probably be reserved for more general Deadpool shenanigans as well, if we're expecting them to co-exist in the longterm.

I don't really see a "stacking" issue with Wisecracks, more of an activation issue where it's more of a whose power really activates or at the very least, activates first, and if both activated, which takes precedence?

Am I looking at it right? Or are you guys seeing something I don't?

If you have Prof X protected by double Wisecrack, he is going to be real difficult to take down.

Well yes, but is it really stacking? Sure it's potentially problematic but stacking is adding one or more. You're not really adding something here, it's more along the lines of a backup generator. It doesn't actually add any power it just helps you keep from losing power, at least from my perspective.

Though I'm not really sure how to prevent such an interaction, or if it really even needs preventing. I mean just increasing the roll already makes it less likely to occur.
