Experienced Green Arrow (See all 3 dials)
At 8 points less, this Green Arrow is still formidable; he keeps his Incapacitate, and Stealth, but now gains some Energy Explosion, Smoke Cloud and for free movement (and this JLA keyword may make him easier to put on teams). Sadly, he loses his Ranged Combat Expert and his range drops down to 8. He's still a good pickup, using the same strategy as the Vet Green Arrow, but I'd rather pay the extra 8 points for the Vet version and range of 10.

Rookie Green Arrow (See all 3 dials)
At just 29 points, the rookie version is very much the weakest of the three. I probably wouldn't use this one at all -- especially now that his range drops down to just 6. If you're scouring the entire Golden age library, you can do a lot better. Just stick with the Vet version (or Exp version).

Congrats Veteran Green Arrow -- you're this week's AWESOME CLIX!

I woul prefer the Veteran version over the Oliver Queen for the other abilities that he has. Versatility in play makes for more options as a support piece.

@upright citizen: Depends. I've looked into sponsoring players for Origin and Gencon before, but it didn't go far. Sponsoring players for local play is a big no-no in my opinion, because both outcomes are bad. (1) If my sponsored players win a local tournament, then it fosters negativity from the local community because you don't want "big companies" coming in and winning local games. (2) if my sponsored players lose local tournaments, then it makes my brand look bad. It's a lose-lose situation.

Of course, I can run my own set of tournaments, like other sites do. But if my sponsored team won my own tournaments, it looks bad on me because it feels like cronyism -- that's not a good situation to be in.

The other question is: who would pay for such a thing? Should I start asking people to donate money, like other sites do? If so, how would those people feel about me taking the money and dumping into sponsored players who could cheat them out of local tournament prizes? Again, it's not really a good situation and it hurts the HeroClix World brand.

HeroClix is a fun game that lets almost anyone be competitive. It fosters competition and friendliness among it's fans, and it's still a very local affair. I'd hate to see HeroClix tournaments turn into a place where you need to have sponsors to win. When I was judging, I had enough grief from players 50 miles away coming in to snipe good prizes from my local players -- if a "sponsored team" did that, I'd be livid.

I'd still prefer the Vet Ollie due to his Incap being more valuable to him then dealing damage in today's game. Yes, a 50 point piece dealing 4 damage is a bit crazy and awesome but likewise if he is hit by a paper towel roll he's as good as KO'd. Thus I don't want to rely damage on him but rather him to slow down the enemy (and potentially deal damage that way).

I here other sites have now sponsored players and gave out race jackets and everything.

Will you be doing this?
