WORST HeroClix of 2015: No. 2

No. 2

Cammi [Avengers Assemble 019]

At first glance, she looks OK. Self-Perplex, Penetrating/Psychic Blast, IT:Hindering. But that 5 range with no Willpower or Stealth or Running Shot are big problems in making any real use of her shooting prowess. She could well be based before ever getting a shot off — or KO’d outright through her short, 4-click dial guarded only by 16 DV Energy Shield/Deflection and her SP:

  • ANTI-PERSONNEL MINES: Give Cammi a free action and place a Mine marker in an adjacent unoccupied clear square if there are two or less friendly Mine markers on the map. Even if this power is lost, whenever an opposing character moves through one or more squares containing Cammi’s Mine markers and actions resolve, remove those markers from the map and deal that character 3 damage.

Sounds nice…until one notices that with just two Mines allowed on the map, it’s really easy to get around any she’s planted — assuming she didn’t drop them way away from the action, or that she hasn’t gotten hit off the power before using it.

She also wastes points on her trait if she’s not on a team with Drax. And with her nearly useless keywords of Pilot and Pirate, she’s not going to be on many teams without Drax.

She’s OK with a Drax — sort of — but is otherwise a little piece of junk and so nearly tops Heroclixin’s list of crap figures of 2015.
