I tend to agree. The one advantage in playing the promo Fanatic is it really feeds Divine Focus with the base power because it offers healing and card draw. With Omni X and Greatest Legacy, they synergize very well with this strategy. As you say, though, more set up would probably be better at this point
The other Dr. Tachyon
HP: 13
Hand: Hypersonic Assault (2), HUD Goggles, Lightening Reflexes
In Play:
Trash: Quick Insight, Synaptic Interruption, Nimble Strike, Accelerated Assault, Sucker Punch (Burst = 5)
Additional effects: Indigo Pin(9) (You switched the Pins again. I believe this is the one I have)
------------------
Start of hero turn:
Play a card: HUD Goggles, Hypersonic Assault(1 damage + 1 from Legacy -1 from Gloomy reduction for a net 1 damage to all villians) [In a hurry or i'd list out all the villians current hp...sorry.. gotta be somewhere but wanted to get my turn in.]
Use a power: Rapid Recon -- do not trash card.
Draw a card: Hypersonic Assault (!!)
End of hero turn: Pin eats Lightning Reflexes

HP: 13
Hand: Hypersonic Assault (2), Lightening Reflexes
In Play:
Trash: Quick Insight, Synaptic Interruption, Nimble Strike, Accelerated Assault, Sucker Punch, Hypersonic Assault, Lightning Reflexes (Burst = 5)
Additional effects: Indigo Pin(8)
No villian who took damage from Hyper Assault may attack until the start of my next turn.
Legacy killed Profane Zealot, so the damage reduction should be gone - you hit them all for 2 damage. If I'm tracking correctly, the villain HP after Tachyon's should be:
Gloomy [88]
Chosen Disciple [5]
Cursed Acolyte [4]
Indigo Pin [7]
Zombie Servant [destroyed]
Sable Pin [7]
Zombie Servant [destroyed]
The Damage Reduction was from the Profane Zealot, who Legacy killed off, so I think you do 2 damage to everyone. Note this includes the Velociraptor Pack, unfortunately.
I'll get the list of targets damaged for you. There's some confusion with pin colors again, I think. Edit: Thanks, grysqrl. FWIW, the death of the Profane Zealot brought out another Zombie Servant, which was also destroyed. Edit 2: Also, Lightning Reflexes is no longer in your hand, grim88. Edit 3: Oh, and Hypersonic Assault also hit Velociraptor Pack [3].

Omintron, I'd actually focus on the Indigo Pin on Tachyon rather than the Sable Pin on me. If we don't kill off the Indigo Pin before Tachyon's next turn, she'll have to discard a Hypersonic Assault, which would hurt us. The Sable Pin is harmless as long as Gloomy can't do damage. (With the color confusion, I can't be sure what you actually meant...)
Sounds good. I'll update my previous post to match.
phantaskippy, shouldn't Omnitron have taken a hit from a Zombie Servant instead of Tachyon or Legacy? I was just try to sort out the hit points.
Legacy gets a Next Evolution.

Dang it. I initially forgot his reduction, went back and fixed it but didn't recalculate, so Tach or Legacy regain 3 hp.
I assume Omni-X gets hit for 3 more, then?
sad but true.

Play a card: Instrumental Conjuration. Search my deck for Xu’s Bell and put it into play. Draw Silver Shadow.
Use a power: Xu’s Bell. Activate the Perform and Accompany texts of Inventive Preparation. Each player may look at the top card of their hero deck, then replace it or discard it. I reveal Cedisitic Dissonant and replace it. One player may play a card.

Who wants the card play? I see several good options: Legacy will probably be wanting to get his Ring out, Fanatic could do some substantial damage or bring out Zealous Offense, Omnitron could build up more or clear the field with Sedative Flechettes. Tachyon doesn’t have enough cards to play, and I can’t choose myself. I’m leaning towards Fanatic.
Note that Tachyon will (presumably) destroy her own Pin with the Hypersonic Assault before it makes her discard.
Tachyon, getting you card draw will be a high priority if I get a chance. Obviously you can use it...
I am discarding Rocket Punch. Timeshift is way more valuable right now. Fanatic or Legacy for the card play.
Each player may look at the top card of their hero deck, then replace it or discard it: Blinding Speed. I'm not going to discard. Could be handy.
Bolster Allies sits atop my deck. I'd really like to get Lead From The Front and the Legacy Ring out now that I have Next Evolution, but that's not a priority until Tachyon runs out of Hypersonic Assaults, so I'd give the card play to Fanatic.
Final Dive is on my deck. I'll use the play to put out Zealous Offense, so Tacky doesn't necessarily have to play Hypersonic next turn
Sounds good. Fanatic with Zealous Offense it is.
