Villians ability replacement cards (and heroes when thought of)

Been meaning to post this for a while but seeing as heroes only have boost starcards I thought it would be cool to have ability replacements to see variety. Darth Maul Replaces lightsaber throw -...

Hey @mastersam911 Cool ideas!

An idea I personally have for Yoda.

Yoda
- Replace presence - (To get Yoda more aggressive) With a lift mechanic you can make units start levitating in the air and stunned at the same time(similar to force choke from Darh Vader). Could be done on smaller vehicle like AT-ST and speed bikes to stop them mid air and make them float up.
- The idea is taken from when Yoda levitates the pipe from Star Wars 2 and 5 when he get the x-wing out of the swamp

The ability to replace certain abilities through cards is an intriguing concept that I think has a lot of potential.

As of right now certain heroes are geared towards GA or HvsV most of them aren't sought after heavily for both.

Some of the heroes aren't very sought after at all.

It would be great if you could completely change a hero's kit to retool him for a specific format.

I'm glad there are new heroes coming out, I'm sure that will shake things up as we go. This would shake things up further.

The only thing that you could say would be a negative is that you might not be able to determine a character's abilities by visually looking at them any more. It's hard to counter play something when you don't know what tools they have.

But I think the positive way outweighs the negative if it's done well.
