Piecing Together MARVEL Puzzle Quest: Sebastian Shaw (Black King)
Sebastian Shaw (Black King) brings his brilliant mind and indomitable power to MARVEL Puzzel Quest!
Sebastian Shaw went from rags to riches to indomitable mutant power. With his business acumen and his ability to absorb and redirect all forms of energy, this mogul rose rapidly through the ranks of the Hellfire Club to become the Black King, a leader in its Inner Circle. Between his brilliant mind and formidable mutant powers, Shaw is an enemy you never want to face in the boardroom—or the back alley.
Sebastian Shaw (Black King) is the latest to join the ranks of MARVEL Puzzle Quest!
A 4-Star Rarity character with Affiliations Mutants, Villains, Hellfire Club, and Geniuses, Sebastian Shaw (Black King) has a toolkit that includes Kinetic Negotiation, Capital Gains, and One to You, Sir.
(PASSIVE) Sebastian Shaw has always been a ruthless negotiator, figuratively and literally. Using Kinetic Negotiation, the Black King takes 40% less damage, storing 15% of the reduced damage as increased base match damage. Whenever Black King deals match damage, reduce his stored damage by 50%. This ability is always unlocked.
With his Capital Gains, Shaw drains up to 7 random Friendly AP, storing 6 increased base match damage for each AP spent.
(PASSIVE) At the beginning of Black King’s turn, convert up to 1 Charged tiles to basic tiles, creasing his stored base match damage by 6 for each, then depower all enemy Strike, Attack, and Protect tiles by 10%, storing 50% of their reduced strength as increased base match damage.
One to You, Sir! What’s the point of all the money and power in the world if you don’t use it? Black King expends all stored match damage to deal 330% of his average base match damage to the target.
