For ease of reference, I assume the math goes like this:

  • Spend 1R (2ER) to remove 2 threat from 1 scheme..
  • Spend 2R (3ER) to remove either 2 threat from 2 schemes (total of 4 threat) or 3 threat from 1 scheme.
  • Spend 3R (4ER) to remove either 2 threat from 3 schemes (total of 6 threat) or 3 threat from 2 schemes (total of 6 threat).
  • Spend 4R (5ER) to remove either 2 threat from 4 schemes (total of 8 threat) or 3 threat from 3 schemes (total of 9 threat).
  • Spend 5R (6ER) to remove either 2 threat from 5 schemes (total of 10 threat) or 3 threat from 4 schemes (total of 12 threat).

If my math is correct, I'm unclear on how to evaluate this card. The efficiency (cost -to-threat removed) ratio doesn't seem stellar; however, the versatility of the card's cost and it's capability of thwarting any scheme (whereas Even the Odds can only thwart side schemes). I'm curious to hear what others will have to say.

I think it's not a great card value wise (even though the versatility can come in handy) however it can shine in certain decks. Wonderman (where it comes from) when he has Mr. Hollywood out naturally overpays cards then so all written above is bumped by one thread without reducing the schemes. — Chris2002 · 55
Didn't mean to post but whatever. I think 3ER for 2 times 3 threat or 4ER for 3 times 3 threat is actually quite good. The other one it can be valuable is Ms. Marvel with Shrinking it you have a lot of side schemes. At 4 ER it's basically equal to three steps ahead although you need to divide it to three different schemes while TSA can choose the same scheme 3 times. I will have to see how valuable this card will be in the long run — Chris2002 · 55
It's nice to get more Aerial cards for Falcon and Angel (speaking of which, I don't think Ms Marvel can get Aerial). Gives more places to spend Power of Flight — Stretch22 · 2081
