2 damage outwit is what makes her meta worthy.

Clearly it's one or the other. I'm sure I read it somewhere.

AaggagagaggGAGAGAHH!! "Meta-worthy" isn't a thing.

Or rather, the "meta" is the general assumption of what may be used by other opponents and pre-strategizing against that. Alternately, a figure that isn't tremendously cost-effective would also inform you of potential teams. Ergo, all figures are by their very existence "meta worthy" such that assuming someone will or will not play any specific dial is literally the metagame.

Now back to our regularly schedule thread.

I'm happy this one's in the starter because it might be the only one I'm getting, and I appreciate the chicken####tery of a character that can run away for free. Although I will be saying "Nobody puts Baby in a corner" immediately before moving her, every time.

Big lol, but negative rep for using a Dirty Dancing ref.-----

The Mass Market one (203) is way more of a threat to meta.

She can FORCE a character to hold the Gold Kryptonite, meaning they lose all of their powers except Super Strength.

After her team stomps the powerless figure, she runs up next to the Gold K and does it again if someone else was dumb enough to pick up an object, too.

Giving her that power over the full dial is a little obnoxious.

3 clix then regular leap climb would have been better.

Still there are a lot of stealth busting figures nowadays and a 16 from ranged combat attck isnt that hard to hit.

Also base her and force her to push is another option that comes toi mind.

I am pretty sure she could not do it with two tokens. As it is a Move Action used as a Free Action, meaning you could not assign the Move Action because she had two tokens.

It is similar to Predator X's Trait:

CAT BURGLAR: Catwoman can use Flurry. Give Catwoman a free action when she is adjacent to a heavy or light object and exchange that object for any other object on the map or held by another character; after doing so, roll a d6; on a result of 1-3, remove the exchanged object from the game.

I don't think 203 Catwoman can force someone to HOLD Gold K if they're not already holding an object to swap it with. Sure, it would deny you the use of Super Strength when someone lines up Cats next to the K, but if they're spending 70 points on keeping that trap working, I'm not concerned.

Predator X's power starts as a move action, and becomes a free action. Catwoman's starts as a free action, and a character can be given free actions even when they have two tokens.

The problem she'll have is against figures with charge or HSS, along with invulnerable or impervious.

While it's narrow, she'll also have problems with figures that ignore hindering, or have a power that takes advantage of hindering when making attacks.

That 3 range is a nice perk for her, but also her Achilles heel. If she wants to stay in range, she can't go far at all, leaving her easily in reach of many things.

While I do agree with what you are saying, and was agreeing with Crow, the wording is very clunky.

You are still giving her a move action, but it becomes free when adjacent to an opposing character. A simple "Give Catwoman a Free Action, she can use a Move Action' makes it clearer. This way, you are still giving her a move action and some may question it

I don't think the wording on Catwoman's trait is clunky. There's never any question as to whether it's a free action. She either can be given the free action, or she can't.

By comparison, Predator X is in the odd situation where he could be given a move action, fail to break away, and so a move that was supposed to be free fails to meet the condition that makes it a free action.

Since all the conditions to make the move a free action for Catwoman exist (or don't) before she makes the move action, the move granted by that trait will always be free.

They aren't Predator Xes......theyre direwolves, yo!

I didn't know J. Jonah Jameson was writing for the Gotham Herald now...

Her quake + willpower + perplex click is pretty brutal too.

Just don't base her. No. It isn't a perfect solution, but there are all kinds of Supermen, Ultimates, Ultimate Avengers, and Giants or other guys that ignore stealth from a power that can get to her. I might be willing to concede that in multiples, she can be pretty deadly to deal with, but who even does that?

To be fair, though, that is a great set of abilities as well as an excellent discovery by Crow.
