doc Today we look at the rare Banker character Class Action Defender.

Without question, Bankers have the best defensive characters: Blanching Butcher, Dandy Day Trader, Pettifogger etc. Class Action Defender (CAD) might be the best yet.

At a cost and threshold of 3, this 2/3/3 can be nigh bullet proof. With his replacement ability to take no damage whenever he’d normally receive >4, with proper planning he can block a massive attack and live to tell the tale. Here’s how I see it:

You’re attacked by any beatstick of strength 5 or more, you can live.
You’re attacked by a group of characters of the same speed who’s combined strength is 5 or more, you can live.
You’re attacked by multiple speeds, but for each speed the total strength is 5 or more, you can still live.

Ah, the beauty of defending! Once you see what’s coming and make an educated guess as to what effects your opponent might have in store for you, CAD can easily be a damage sponge.

And have I mentioned his second ability yet? If you’re attacked, pay 2 and you may restore him. So even if he’s been knocked down, you can bring him right back!

So in the end, what do we have? A character that will force your opponent to either use up one of their removal cards or plan around a major pain in the butt blocker. Both are good for me.

In limited, CAD’s going to be a great asset. In constructed, CAD is a potent piece of defense and stall.

Limited: 4/5
Constructed: 4/5
