* PowerNullifiers: Outwit, in general. Some characters (Leech, for example) are walking power nullifiers, while others can just ignore specific powers (Professor X laughs at your attempt to Mind Control him).

* NoSell: Franchise/TheDCU set's Quintessence ability nullifies negative status from being inflicted on the possessor, such as having a [[PowerNullifier power nullified]] or receiving damage from pushing (exertion). The same for the Power Cosmic from the Marvel sets.

And coming, soon, Undead featuring classic literary figures like Dr. Frankenstein, Jekyll & Hyde, Jacob Marley, & Werewolves. [[UltimateShowdownOfUltimateDestiny Only time can tell what other universes may eventually join in the fun]].

''[[http://www.wizkidsgames.com/heroclix/ HeroClix]]'' is an exception-based miniatures game. That is, it uses simple basic rules where the powers and abilities allow you to break the rules.

It includes pretty much all of the StockSuperpowers and a few less easily mapped ones. It uses a point system to price heroes, giving them a raw PowerLevel used to gauge the strength of a team by adding up the members' values. A 100 point team of five EliteMook Hand Ninjas would still be an easy match for an experienced ''Comicbook/{{Daredevil}}'' and ''ComicBook/{{Elektra}}'', but get creamed with the 200 point Comicbook/{{Superman}}. The game has pieces move as if on a chessboard (each being able to move in any direction) and ranged attacks have to draw lines of fire avoiding such things as smoke and obstacles.

* UltimateShowdownOfUltimateDestiny: With the current sets, a fight between Master Chief vs Captain America vs Batman vs Gimli vs Ryu isn't far fetched. Indeed, it's one of the game's main appeals to a lot of players.

* ''Wrestling/WWE''

* BribingYourWayToVictory: Mostly [[AvertedTrope Averted.]] Powerful characters can run up to 70$, but tournament-winning teams don't cost nearly as much as they would in TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering or YuGiOh.
