He seems good, but never makes the cut. In a mirror match he could help your opponent as well, You could also drive him insane yourself somehow to help push a story through.
Is it just me or does the timing on this card seem incorrect? I feel like it should be a disrupt.
There's not much difference between a Forced Response and Disrupt for timing, but a Disrupt would be elective.
Actually not disrupt, shouldn't it read "Forced Response: When Richard Pike is made insane..."?
I think you're correct badash, but for a slightly different reason: if Richard Pike is insane, he will have no text box, and therefore no ability to trigger. It must be a Disrupt in order to work.

Should read: “Disrupt: When Richard Pike would be made insane, all other M.U. characters gain Willpower and Toughness +1 until the end of the phase.”
