Also representing the Guardians of the Galaxy along with the #10 Star-Lord is #7...

Rocket Raccoon

boot symbol

65 points

Team: Defenders

Keywords: Animal, Guardians of the Galaxy, Soldier

Range: 8 x 1

DIAL: http://wizkidsgames.com/heroclix/gallery/

STRENGTHS:

Top-click Leap/Climb, Probablity Control and Super Senses (the last, for his entire dial) are a great combo that hasn't been seen since E Elongated Man way back in Collateral Damage. For only a few points more, Rocket packs a more effective 8 range and a clean shift to Outwit and Running Shot to maintain the support/offense balance. Energy Explosion and Defenders TA are a bit of icing on his cake. He's going to be VERY useful on Soldier keyword teams.

WEAKNESSES:

His AV and especially DV really sag in the late dial and he's short-lived for his cost.

CARDS TO CONSIDER:

Doesn't need any, though the GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY ATA  could be useful against enemy Outwit, especially if there are no other Defenders for him to pair up with.

IN SUM:

Rocket Raccoon wins games. Period.

Next on the list: something else inhuman.
