Somehow his blast hadn't had the full effect he wanted. Maybe it was whatever dampening field or whatever it was that was weakening his powers? Or maybe...maybe this guy was just that damn good. Conner honestly hated either of those being options, and he hated even more that those two seemed to be the<em>only</em>options available to them. He'd hit him though and blasted him away. And when he landed, the floor cracked from the impact. Since he was okay from that...yeah things didn't seem to be getting any easier for the intrepid young heroes.<br/><br/>The look he was given after the guy sort of shrugged off the impact...it was definitely a challenge. The Superboy stood a little taller after that; ready to go right back into the fight as long as he wasn't in the others way. While focusing on him, a flashbang grenade clacked out over the floor, thrown by Nightwing. Conner quickly closed his eyes and covered his ears, because with his senses that thing might have kept him out of the fight for a good long while. When he opened his eyes, Dick was attacking Patchy in full force, trying to take him off guard and take him down at the exact same time.<em>Good luck, Dick,</em>he thought as he raced through possibilities to help his friend end this fight.<br/><br/>But he quickly had to switch his focus when the thief got the upper hand and was about to slam Dick back down onto the floor. A hit like that might kill him at the worst, and put him out of commission at the best. He took a step, then stopped when Spoiler snuck up on the guy. Even with his powers weakened, he could still hear her, and see the small differences between her and the air around her. He had a rough lock on where she was when he heard her staff start powering up. She was about to attack, and him jumping in to stop her or help her would not only say he didn't have faith in her, but it might make things worse if all three of them were within arms reach of this guy at the same time.<br/><br/>After Spoiler's attack combo, he thought of ways he could get back in there that wouldn't put the others at risk. At this level, he was sure his TK was more brute force than finesse, so he couldn't attack him with another blast without possibly putting Dick in harms way. He wasn't even sure about his heat vision. Well he had one other option. A good ole fashioned slugfest. This guy could take a hit, but so could Conner, and in a war of attrition he was confident he could last. Maybe he was even getting used to his new limits? He'd never know if he didn't try.<br/><br/>Flexing his fingers, he took a few seconds to decide, then waited. Spoiler had done more than he'd expected, and with Nightwing working off of her efforts, they both managed to create the much needed distance that kept this guy from tossing them around like...well sort of like how Conner usually tossed people around. He'd divided his attention between Batwoman and the fight, so he knew she'd gotten something; probably whatever it was this guy had taken. Good. Even if they didn't know what it did, depriving him of it would be a win in his opinion. Then Dick called an audible on the play; Maneuver 5, also known as "Robin & Cowl". He never got that name, unless it was simply Nightwing was Robin so he got away, and Batman was "The Cowl" so he stayed behind and kicked people into submission.<br/><br/>"Maneuver 5, got it!" He kept his eyes on the bad guy now, taking careful, measured steps while eyeing him and looking for any weakness or opening he could possibly find. He grinned at Nightwing and nodded when he posed a challenge. "It's better than yours, we know that much!," he joked seconds before the smoke enveloped that man's body and the area around him. He didn't need gadgetry, he just narrowed his eyes and peered through the smoke as well.<br/><br/>Dick attacked first, hurling several of his batarangs at the man. While they were in flight, Conner ran to another angle and slid on his knees, stopping and raising one to brace himself before focusing and sending a concentrated burst of heat and force from his eyes towards the villain's knees. It of course didn't pack it's usual punch, but even lower levels of heat vision could be highly dangerous. Hopefully if he got him thanks to the speed of the energy burst and the low visibility from the cloud, it'd burn through that armor, or melt it, or make it hot.<br/><br/>Something! And the extra force would hopefully at least flip him over and have him hit the floor hard. At this point though, he was happy with no dominating this guy. He just wanted to hold him back long enough for Kate and Spoiler to get some distance. Maybe if they took that thing he'd get his powers back!
