Someone might ask, "Why use a 160 pt Elektra" let alone use an elektra.
Because she is seriously bad.. I have yet to lose with her. And have wiped everyteam I've played (6 in all) with elektra. including firelord teams.. that stealth makes it impossible to hit her. Then you just BCF him, mind control hiim to smash his medic. etc etc... I fear they might start calling her Elektra Na-Cheesios

First off she has stealth, BCF, super senses, and Perplex. She gets two attacks at range of 6. Now that's all well and good, but then she has a 10 movement, 12 attack, 16 defense and dows 2 damage. She keeps alot of these abilities and high all the way to the bottom. Except, two clicks down she loses stealth and gets mind control. That's 2 mind control attacks with a range of 6 and an attack of 10!

She's a bad ###.

My other favorite fig is the veteran ninja. BCF and stealth for only 17!
Rookie paramedic -- 3 clicks of support at 7 for only 8 pts.
SWAT team members that cost 17, have RCE and only cost 17!
Gambit isn't bad either.

Can't wait for more Xplosion. Driving 12 hours to go to megacon was worth it.

I don't have a problem with Elektra. I don't even have a problem with the number of Elektras that have been released.

But an Elektra that has a point value roughly equal to that of Thanos or Darkseid? C'mon now.

But this is the Elektra that was brought back from the dead by the Hand!
She's seriously miffed! HAHAhhahaha.. I agree. Also, I think that Wizkids really likes Elektra or someone there does. There will probably be an Elektra in every set.

She's a second tier character that they're trying to really push with all of their might into the first tier. Hence the movie she's going to have.

the U Elektra (from a overview of the whole game & based solely from a game play perspective) IS THE BEST PIECE BAR NONE!!!!! Will I use one? no. not cause its Elektra or because its too powerful. I just like a lot of the other characters in the set & I've got 3-4 teams I want to build & use because I love those characters. I may use U Elektra in fun play w/ the rest of my team being Hand Ninjas. Rock!!! but I'd rather have the pure might that is V Mandarin (possibly the second best clix in the game) lead my hordes of Ninjas. V Mandarin may be the best there is (no dis to Wolvie), but I think Elektra edges it out as an overall powerful character. Lets look at it:

Stealth, BCF (12 att), SS (16), 2 dam w/ perplex, 6 range w/ 2 arrows
That alone makes her scary enough to use, but for 160pts you need a little more. Well that 'little' more is the 3rd click. Yes (as explained earlier) Mind control w/ 2 targets! wow! To top it all off her whole dial has SS & Perplex. Thank goodness (or just the game testers) that there are a lot of powerful figures to take this on. Thats all I gotta say.
