* KatanasAreJustBetter: Averted. While Rako uses an x-ionized katana, Edge just feels stupid about trying to swing one. He prefers a karambit, and he has a secret, x-ionized exacto knife for emergencies.
--> Batman: “Imagine an assassin with a keen mind for deduction. He’s resistant to physical force, and his offensive power is limited only by line of sight. In fact, his ability improves with it - he’s most dangerous from far away. But he wants to be a hero, gentlemen.”

M’gann’s telekinesis.

* MundaneUtility: Edge invokes this by practicing skill, precision, and finesse with his powers on the food he cooks. He also notes that when nobody in the mountain in wiling to cook, they use the advanced alien wormhole technology to zip over to other cities for takeout.

Added DiffLines:
* PolitenessJudo: Edge’s shard makes him arguably better at this than actual combat, when it comes to metahumans and other powered people.
* PsychicBlockDefense: Presumably due to the presence of his Shard, Edge’s mind is not a nice place to be. Martian Manhunter gets put through the wringer when he pokes around unwisely in the wrong part of Edge’s psyche.
* RealityEnsues: Justice League members get upset and push for Edge’s when he is, however inadvertently, linked to traumatizing experiences for the Team.
** Serling Roquette has nightmares of being kidnapped long after she’s been rescued, [[spoiler: and sitting front-row to her mentor’s kidnapping later only makes it worse]].

Added DiffLines:
* AWolfInSheepsClothing: Inverted. Much fuss is made over how absolutely terrifying an assassin Edge would make, as well as how he is by leaps and bounds the most obvious possibility for TheMole. The audience knows that he’s one of the most congenial guys we see.
* ShipperOnDeck: Edge heavily, heavily ships Supermartian. To the point that he gives them a kickstart by arranging Superboy to go talk to a distraught M’gann with [[TrademarkFavoriteFood Chocco cookie crumbs]] on his lips.
* StatingTheSimpleSolution: Rather than go through an elaborate bluff and double-bluff to protect Doctor Roquette at the cost of time lost in set-up, Edge points out that the camouflaged, telepathically commanded bioship is much safer and more convenient, and Dr. Roquette uploads her virus from inside with the help of an Ethernet cable.
* ThouShaltNotKill: Like most Heroes, Edge does his best to practice this and encourage others to do so. He gets a WhatTheHellHero moment on his first mission when he carves up a League of Shadows assassin, but he defends himself because a) his power is blade projection so when he’s protecting people he doesn’t have a non-lethal setting, and b) the guy was a werewolf and his knife wasn’t made of silver, so he’ll eventually recover.
