I never really cared either way, I just feel he is powered. But if you don't that's cool.

I think drafts could use some wiggle room now and then.

the only reason i even thought of him as non-powered was what i posted...

Please don't quit. There are actually quite a few picks that I would say are "questionable", you Cap pick not being on that list though.

i'd say a lot of the pawns are "questionable."

I thought it was an oversight on your part, so I was just pointing it out like you did for me. No drama, we're cool. It's all for fun.

no you don't.. but there are a lot of pawns that could be actually higher up and fit fine.

i thought pawns were supposed to be like Lois Lane/Jarvis type characters.. the "supporting" characters.

MacGuyver is not a supporting character. I thought them as purely powerless characters, be it up supporting or otherwise.

that's what i was thinking too. and not to just call out Pasta Joes team, but Sakie has freaking Noah Bennett as a Pawn... he is no way just a Supporting character.. he'd definitely be more of a knight/bishop then a pawn.

He's clearly not at the same level as a "superhero"; I considered him as someone who could fix weapons or machinery behind the scenes with whatever was available. Chuck Norris and Bruce Lee could train grunts in hand-to-hand combat. And Captain Nemo could provide transportation.

Well, I was saying that Pasta who created the Pawn drafted MacGuyver (who can be Knight material, IMO) as a Pawn, I'm just drafting along those same lines.

The guy has a show based on him, that's not supporting so..

i took it as supporting characters, or characters who are typically in a supporting role.

We've all had issues with some of our picks, particularly our Pawns, it seems like.

I considered Pawns the characters that could never really be the hero or the head villain but was there doing their thing helping the cause but more often than not fucking it up.

I could see where he would be considered questionable. I can change him if need be, I have just been running behind in this draft and I kinda panicked and needed to make a choice.
