## Ability: Psychic Knife

### General Notes:

This ability is one of the poster children for the “speeds up on use” type gameplay, and does pretty well when teamed with other Strike generators. However, it’s pretty weak on its own at 8 AP (since it’s balanced around the idea that it’ll often be faster), and even once it’s sped up, it’s still pretty slow with a 5 AP minimum. So lowered this to 4 and changed numbers accordingly.

**Color:** Red

## Ability: Bewilder

### General Notes:

This ability is relatively slow in modern gameplay, and it comes with a Countdown tile in order to actually make its ability functional. This ability, as a result, rarely gets used and even more rarely goes off in a useful way. So we’ve changed it to a Passive which has the same mechanics. Increases strength of SAP tiles, then goes and tries to steal AP. This turns it into a kind of hybrid of Falcon’s Yellow and Hood’s Black Passives, doing both fairly well while using a color that often isn’t otherwise used for these types of abilities.

**Color:** Blue  
**AP Cost:** 0
