The Book of Okoye

[FreshFoods]

Tests are in from Splash! Happy she got some wins here. They mentioned that they think she's a little undercosted, but with all of her other games so far being losses, I'm cool with keeping her at 140 for now.

THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT'S COST, BALANCE, & DRAFTABILITY: I think Okoye is running a little under cost, which is fine since some of her value is waiting for more Wakandan units. Her team won both games, so she’s already in some strong drafting pools with any of the Panthers. Both games were close as well, so no worries for an overpowered team.

GENERAL THOUGHTS ON THE TESTED UNIT: I think she has some cool powers that make sense and she’s sitting in a good spot so far. We’ll know more when we see more Wakandan units.

[IAmBatman]

I think they meant she was a little overcosted (that's how "running a little under cost" reads for me).

[FreshFoods]

You know, that would make a lot more sense.

[IAmBatman]

It's not the clearest turn of phrase.

[IAmBatman]

Feeling good about 140 and moving forward?

[FreshFoods]

Ah geez, completely meant to call it last night.

I propose a vote for Final Editing at 140

[IAmBatman]

yea

[Ericth74]

She's going to get tested a lot more anyways with more designs in coming.

[FreshFoods]

For sure! I won't be surprised if she gets adjusted in some way after some more Wakanda figures come through.

[MrNobody]
