Special Effects on Cards
Panther Habit: An additional two symbols. Black Panther has three cards with the effect “Panther Habit.” Each one of these cards has one symbol (Heroics, Attack, or Move) on the bottom and the other two symbols in the effect text, meaning that Black Panther shares the symbol on the bottom of the card and the can use the other two symbols for himself.
It’s nice to be able to do one of everything (Heroics, Attack, and Move), and that’s what “Panther Habit” lets Black Panther do. Unfortunately, he can only give his teammates the card’s bottom symbol.
Overview
Black Panther is surprisingly fast, and the rest of his kit is balanced between Heroics and Attack, like Captain America if Cap focused on Move instead of Heroics. But Black Panther lacks the team-friendly abilities of Cap. He’s more of a lone wolf who needs backup.
And since he has good mobility, Black Panther’s teammates can focus on Heroics and Attack. I would avoid another movement Hero or even a Hero with a high movement score.
Good Teammates
Shockingly, the two characters in the expansion with him (Shuri and Winter Soldier) pair well with Black Panther. Captain America, Ant-Man, Iron Man, and Black Widow from the core set are also strong choices.
