THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY: Frank is pretty strong but not as overpowering as I thought he might be on paper. I think he should go up to 450 pts, 430 seems a little low based on results. Not a ton of synergy, does have some in Insane builds with Harley Quinn 130.

GENERAL THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT: Frank went 3-0, power set is pretty strong but he's a 400+ point figure so it should be. His lack of great synergy limits his team builds. Being able to use his Stare, Chains and then normal attack all in the same turn might be too strong. Worth watching in public playtesting.

[Ericth74]

I propose a vote to move to public playtesting at 450 pts

Once Morg is complete and I have a spot in playtesting of course.

[MrNobody]

Yea

[IAmBatman]

Wait, I'm looking at the test results and it looks like 3-0 to me, not 2-1. Am I reading that wrong?

Yeah that's right. I forgot his team barely won game 2. So yeah 3-0. I'll edit my write up.

[IAmBatman]

No worries! Just checking. 450 sounds good! Yea

[Tornado]

Yea. I guess I am going to have to run that zombie army myself.
