Hy there,
I don’t know about you guys, but I am a huge fan of Gambit. As you probably all seen by now, he is not present in most of the games, and what’s important here, he is not present in MPQ.
Taking into account that a movie is set to appear next year, alongside X-Men Apocalypse which is supposed to be the biggest X-Men film to date, I think that 2016 can bring us some new characters, and Gambit, surely has to be one of them.
So here is my vision on Gambit. I don’t really know if he is more suited for a 3* or a 4*. I think a 3* is more available to all players across MPQ right know, so I tend to think that it is more appropriate to have that level instead of 4*.
The damage numbers are only for guidance. I don’t mind if D3 tweaks them anyway the want if they bring us one version of our favorite thief.
His main abilities are Black, Purple and Red, with a twist. The ability numbers are consider at maxed for the 5 levels displayed, like the ones on wiki.
166: 8600
Blackjack / High Theft (11 
)
Blackjack
===========
Gambit loves his playing cards, but in time of need he must throw them away to dispatch some little “presents”.
Level 1: Gambit throws 1 playing-card, dealing 300 damage to target enemy. If there are any trap tiles on the board, he detonates one dealing extra damage (see Charge 
).
Level 2: throws 1 card, dealing 600 damage.
Level 3: throws 2 cards, dealing 1000 damage. Detonates 2 trap tiles.
Level 4: throws 3 cards, dealing 1500 damage. Detonates 3 trap tiles.
Level 5: throws 4 cards, dealing 2000 damage. Detonates all trap tiles.
This ability can temporarily change to High Theft (see Pokerface 
)
High Theft
===========
This ability is a temporary substitute for Blackjack. It will be the same level of Blackjack.
Old habits die hard. Gambit pickpockets his targets and strips them from all secrets.
Level 1: Gambit steal 2 Black, Red and Yellow AP from the enemy team. Leaves a 4-turn Countdown tile that destroys 2x2 pattern tiles. Does not generate extra AP.
Level 2: also steals Green. 3-turn CD.
Level 3: also steals Blue. 3x3 pattern CD.
Level 4: also steals Purple. 2-turn CD.
Level 5: Steals 3 AP of each color. 1-turn 5x5 pattern CD.

Gambit creates a static energy shield for his mind preventing detection and intrusion by even the strongest and most powerful telepaths. The shield has the added effect of destabilizing touch-based abilities.
Level 1: Creates a 2-turn Countdown tile. While the countdown tile is on the board, Gambit cannot be stunned and his other abilities temporarily change to High Theft
and Charm
respectively.
Level 2: 3-turn CD, + 1 AP to cast (6 purple)
Level 3: 4 turn CD, + 1 AP to cast (7 purple)
Level 4: He also does not receive damage unless he is targeted. (Team attacks don’t hit him), + 2 AP to cast (9 purple)
Level 5: 5 turn CD, + 1 AP to cast (10 purple)
Charge / Charm (8
)
Charge
Gambit charges various objects from the battlefield, dealing damage to any opponent who dare to attack the area.
Level 1: Converts 2 basic tiles to trap tiles.
If Gambit matches the trap, he puts a 50 red stike tile 
on the board and moves the trap in another place.
If anyone else matches a trap (even allies!), the tile is destroyed, and the explosion deals 500 damage to target who made the match.
Level 2: 100 red strike tile / 1000 damage;
Level 3: Converts 3 basic tiles to trap tiles
Level 4: 150 red strike tile / 1500 damage;
Level 5: Converts 4 basic tiles to trap tiles.
This ability can temporarily change to Charm (see Pokerface
)
Charm
=========
This ability is a temporary substitute for Charge. It will be the same level of Charge.
Gambit uses his unusually strong and irresistible hypnotic charm that allows him to exert a subtle influence over sentient beings, leading them to believe what he says and agree with his suggestions.
Level 1: Gambit chooses a Countdown Tile on the board, reduces it’s time with 1 and gives the effect to the owner’s opposing team. (Thus choosing your CD tile will give the ability to enemy team, and vice versa.)
Example: Maggia Muscle has a Threaten CD tile on the board. And you have a Magnetic Flux CD tile on the board (2* Magneto’s Red). If Gambit chooses the Threaten CD tile, then you gain the strike tiles from it. If Gambit chooses Magneto’s CD tile, than you get the damage from the CD in the face
Level 2: reduce CD with 2
Level 3: reduce CD immediately and triggers it’s effects
Level 4: also deals 300 extra damage for every opposing strike tiles on the board
Level 5: chooses 2 CD tiles
Let me know what you think, in the comment section.
