Broken Concentration
Edge
React: Play at any time: Target a Hero. For the next two actions, if that Hero uses any Powers that normally Stun, Immobilize or turn off toggles, those effects do not occur. If the Hero is a Controller, for the next two actions he draws one less card whenever he would normally draw cards.
Inspiration: Catch a Breath
Burnt Out
Edge
React: Play at any time: Target player discards 3 cards. If that player's Hero is a Scrapper, turn off all of his toggles as well.
Caught up in the chaos of battle, some Scrappers find that they have pushed themselves to hard for too long, often with dangerous results.
