XXXXXThe Downside
Having some range is always better than none. Still, that’s not a severe issue when you can move and attack up to 13+ squares. The biggest threat for this character comes from characters using Precision Strike. With this PS being handed out so frequently, you just can’t rely on Super Senses to be of any use these days. Since this is his chief defensive ability; hitting Wally isn't nearly as difficult as it should be

Playing Flash
When Playing Flash, It's best to target characters with Precision Strike or Outwit showing on their dial and hit them first. A solid hit for 3 (or more) damage may take these powers off those dials. Hit and run is what a Flash does, so be sure to take into account your opponents range when placing him.

It may be tempting to go after Impervious characters first, but don’t overlook characters that support your opponents force. Don't forget to add speed tokens as you land hits. Since it’s important to keep Flash on the move, be strategic when facing characters with Plasticity. They’ll only slow you down.

@ Tony, I believe so.

Why no 12 clix of Xmas this year? I always looked so forward to that.

Does the "Vibrate Through Walls" trait's abilities stack? As in, you can use ALL of the listed abilities (Improved Movement, Flurry, deal 1 damage) and get the +1 to his defense if you have at least 4 Speed tokens on his card?

Wally is 1 point less than the Ultimate Abomination so those two should make for a good duel.

As always, love the article. I'm more of a Marvel fanboy, but I must admit I have very much enjoyed this set. I've liked Flash in the past, but now with the TV series I'm getting more interested. Thanks again for the write up.

Nicely done. Perhaps a contrast of the various Flashes or Speedsters or versions of Wally would make a cool article.

Great article!
Another character I would suggest is Cobalt Blue to thwart the Flash.
But, nonetheless brilliant article!
