Villian Profile: Jigsaw
Jigsaw (from the Saw movie series) is one of 8 characters that can currently be played in Fight Klub - a new tradeable card game by Decipher.
Jigsaw is clearly one of the trickiest villians to cross the screen and probably this game, as is noted in his game text. He is sturdier than most thanks to an 8 life (how many hits it takes to hill him), 5 hand (how many cards he draws up to) and 0 hold (how many cards he keeps during the cooldown phase). But what’s interesting is that he is also very versatile. With a 0 Hold, he is going to be geared toward cycling his deck faster than most.
Jigsaw is characterized by the very attributes he represents - Judgment, cancerous motivation, and (of course) Morbidity. These are the attributes that power his fighting skills.
His game text is a nod to his trickery. As jigsaw is known for always gaining the advantage at the expense of his opponents, so is his game plat. His game text models that. It reads:
Enhance (burn a yellow and green resource, spot 2 identical fight cards): Choose one of the spotted fight cards. If it is unresolved, score it immediately.
So in other words, Jigsaw can score fight cards without ever having to resolve the actual fight. With decks tuned to carry multiple copies of good fight cards, Jigsaw could easily rack up a ton of wins this way.
Nasty.
