Jon, Jason & Charles... I did some research and thought I'd post what I found out about Mimic - Infected from MEV... when he gains the powers of opposing characters, references to their names switch to Mimic.

Rule 500.6a Some modifiers give a character one or more powers found on a second character. If the gained powers have any associated keywords (such as Ally, Cosmic, Leader, etc.), that character doesn’t gain those keywords. All references to the second character by name in the gained powers are changed to the name of the first character. This does not change the names in wordings like "cards named (name)," or "another (name)", as these are referring to any card named (name), not to a specific character card. (See rule 201.2d.)

"When Mimic enters play, he gains the powers and keywords of all opposing characters. Any reference to an affiliation in the gained powers is changed to Exiles."

Mimic is different because he also gets the keywords not just the powers. I think then he would get cosmic abilities and what not (jsut would some how have to gain a cosmic counter).

If you could give him a cosmic counter then yes, he could use cosmic abilities.

Farewell Ozzy!

This afternoon I found out that the Prince of Darkness, Ozzy Osbourne, has passed away. Although I've been a fan since my early teens, I am surprised at how strong my reaction to the news has been. I had missed out on catching the Black Sabbath farewell show a few weeks back during live stream, so I've not yet seen it. A friend of mine told me about a few days after, and I'm looking forward to watching it when it becomes available. I've had the good fortune of seeing Ozzy perform twice; once at an outdoor stadium show with Zakk Wylde on guitar, and once with Black Sabbath several years later. I remember more about the experience of those shows than the specific details, and could not tell you set lists or anything like that. His impact on music and pop culture, both as a member of Black Sabbath and a solo artist simply cannot be understated. As impactful and important as that is, it also hits me that his children have lost their father, which happened to me at the end o...

Errata Discussion

Here's my first-ever joint article! Thanks to Scott Mooney for providing counter-point to my ramblings. Following the release of Marvel Universe and Marvel Evolution there has been a lot of discussion among our player group (and online) about the powers of certain cards, both in terms of sheer power and in terms of wording. I'm sure most of you are familiar with the debate brought on by the 3-cost, Exiles-affiliated Blink. We'll not be discussing that particular card today, but rather some other combinations you may or may not have thought of. Scott has built a very deadly Starjammers/X-Factor/X-Men deck that takes advantage of discard effects and Energize to lead to an amazing turn 7 combo using Cyclops, Astonishing X-Man and Havok, Proud Son. This combo can stun an opponent's board if they are unable to pay the discard required by Havok's ability. It is especially dangerous in a multi-player format and brought up some thoughts on designer intent versus the ...
