I guess this is Faces of Evil week...man, that deck was the nuts while it lasted. Techno never really made the cut though. He was a 2 drop, so he'd have gotten the bonus, but his utility is more as a discard on Turn 5 then a drop on Turn 2. You never really wanted to recruit him, not when you had Beetle and Yellowjacket with far superior effects. Why pitch a card for a 2/2 boost, when you could use a Hard Sound Construct for an extra swinger on your kill turn?

Good in Draft though; if you draw him after turn 2, he's still useful.

2/5
Dead

Paul Ebersol <> Techno, Gadgeteer (Thunderbolts)

2 cost, 3 ATK, 2 DEF, Range

Discards Paul Ebersol >> Target Thunderbolts attacker or defender with cost 3 or less you control gets +2 ATK/ +2 DEF this attack.  Use this power only if Paul Ebersol is in your hand and only if you control 5 or more resources.

Interesting... Paul here has about average stats, and range, but he also has a little kick later in the game.  By holding a few of these guys in your hand, you can make target 3 cost guy a decent beat stick.  Not bad at all.

Sealed:  2/5  He requires you to target a Thunderbolts character, and in sealed, you may not find very many Thunderbolts characters with cost 3 or less.

Constructed: 4/5  I like.  He can make a small guy scary.  You may as well just hold onto him like he's a 5 cost plot twist.  He'll do double duty as a buff for weaker guys and a 2 cost to attack with earlier on.

Again, tell me if you think I"m wrong.  I don't know how a Thunderbolts deck works.

I'm not going to lie, I like this guy. It's on attack and defense, and it's a character discard, so with recursions, it's a reusable pump.

Sealed - 3.0
Constructed - 4.0 (With recursion, it can get be exploited.)
