Get ready for the Bruiser deck "wet-dream come true" Defense card. 3 of these UR+ and 2 LEG Surfers or Wolvies, or just 5 of these. Better RECOGNIZE Bruiser D!!! (watch it have a self proc :( )

I'm HOPING (crossing fingers) that this time around, he'll be an offensive card. I'd be fine with a self proc, but I highly doubt that will be his ability, not with Juggernaut having just come out at the same rarity and whatnot. I'd like to see a Remarkable or even Extreme boost to ATK and DEF of all Bruisers, or better still, just ATK, but again, I doubt that will be the case either (too much like SoA Thor). More than likely, IF he is an offensive card, he'll have some degrade ability, probably geared towards Tactics since Doom is a Tac card.... just my theory. But either way, I REALLY hope he's AT LEAST offensive. WAY too many defensive Thing cards already....
I'm actually hoping he's a defensive boost BRU Def card just like the other Things. I'm transitioning to a Tactics defense deck from a Bruiser defense deck, and this would keep me from having to do that.
but a TAC DEF is SO much stronger. I myself am working on transitioning to a TAC DEF deck (btw, if you've NEVER ran a TAC DEF deck, it takes FOREVER to properly boost essentially 15 cards, especially at SSR and UR level. UGH!!!) and currently am running a bruiser def deck. But lets be honest.... if they do make this Thing a def boost for all bruisers, how much of an extra bonus do you really think it'll be over the SSR Thing now? and is that little extra really gonna be worth the time/silver/$$ it will/could cost to get him, boost him, fuse him (x3 if you run the 3 Thing def already) and boost him again?
I'd like to see him as an offensive card, just this once. Would be nice imo if they DID make him a self proc, as I could then replace Juggernaut in my ATK deck and switch out Ultron for a 3rd Thor, and for once be able to get the Fury Blast boost. lol
On the one hand it would be cool to see him as an offense thing. But I also honestly hope he is the same as his S rare version. If he has similar stat distribution then he could become the best def card in the game. This would have the side effect of making Mobage a crap ton of money as all the high end def leaders pump money out to try and get 6 copies of the thing.
Also SellerFn I'm confused what you mean a Tac Def deck so much stronger. The only reason for that is SS Capt. However if we compare S rare Thing to S rare Capt, Thing is actually the stronger card (albeit by an extremely small margin). So if that trend carries over to the SS version of Thing, Bruiser would be the strongest def deck (again by the tiniest margin).
Ok posting while tired was maybe not my best idea, reread your post SellerFn and realize that maybe you meant just in general it is better for Def, not at the highest tier. If that was the case then I agree, in general they do have higher defense stats, and have many more cards that boost def then compared to bruiser.
Bruisers need more group buffs. If you prescribe to the 3 alignment buffs and 2 wing card theory (I haven't really run the numbers but it makes sense at a glance), there is basically only one option for 6 slots in your primary offense and defense deck (thor/thing). A dual alignment boost would be nice, although I'd be just as happy with attack or defense. Even an all attack or defense would be nice.
I'm hoping he's an offensive card. Why? Because there's a combo. Hulk + Thing + She-Hulk = Bruiser combo!!!
