    I'm liking Weapon Hex. She's fun. Good job on the design

    I like her too. She's a bit tricky to use - basically you need to get her Red CD out and then be able to match her colors and/or use Green, but she does massive damage when you do these things.

    The fact that the CD consumes 2 Red per turn and, of course, goes away pretty easily is a pretty big drawback. She's pretty good on offense, less so on defense, but also combines well with both strike and protect tile creators.

    She's definitely a neat design, I just wish her "Scarlet Storm" had a bit more staying power either due to cost and/or fortification. As it stands you definitely can take advantage of it for one turn, but anything after that is a gamble.

    Her red is cool but it's totally unusable against Thor, which makes x-23 pretty much dead on arrival in PvP, even +100 levels. This will be a problem for anybody who relies on putting stuff on the board, going forward.

    A 2-4 turn unfortified countdown tile that needs to consume 2 AP every single turn (after the initial 5 spent) just to stay on the board is the definition of fragile- with or without Thor’s presence. I get she’s a hard counter to a lot of stuff, but this particular power is so fragile that even without Thor, it’s not lasting long. Probably by design.

    Like others have said, you cast it as a one-off booster before casting green, and anything additional is icing. So it’s usable against Thor the same way I’d use it against anyone else.
