Another decent back and forth match, but this time the Fighters proved stronger. The game broke down a bit differently, and the Fighters seemed to maintain decent control for most of it, but it still felt like anyone's game throughout.

THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY:
Gamora fits really well with the Guardians. She's got a ton of versatility on offense, defense, and even when an ally is taking a turn. Her ability to get free movement in the early game is great to keep her close, a great pairing with Cap, Star-Lord, and Drax. Flanking Strike's unblockables are a great alternative option for difficult to wound figures or those who only take 1 wound at a time. Her Defensive Maneuver options are both awesome as well. All around awesome design and one I think I'll draft quite often! 300 feels about right.

[Ronin]

Awesome! Thanks, Ark.

Glad to see her playing well with the Star-Lord/Drax combo.
