Hmm, just one? Probably Dominate, then.  Quick, inflicts Hold, decent enough damage that it fits pretty nicely into an attack chain for ATs that get it, only typed as Psi for accuracy purposes so it has a high hit rate against stuff that doesn't explicitly have Psi defense (Yellow Mitos!).  It's nice stuff.

I’d have to say propel is my favorite. I also really like the radiation blast range aoe attack. I know it has a super long animation and not great but I dig it.

Based on the number of characters I have with it, Combat Jumping. 
 

based on how much I like using it, I think Umbral Torrent. 100% knockdown, to hit debuff, nice long range on a cone, solid damage and proc options.

Knockout Blow. The wind up animation and the resulting knock up never gets old for me.

 

Dual blades spinning attack (I think Typhoon's Edge?) is a close second. I think it's awesome looking with the right blades.

Even though I think it underperforms on Dominators: Arctic Air. It's a fascinating power that I missed the most when CoX closed. There aren't many other games I can think of that encourage you to play in such a strange way.

 

If they ever fix Arctic Air so that it can Dominate I'd play Ice Control a lot more.

Combat teleport! I know it's not exactly a nostalgic goodie, but I have a hard time not picking it on anything these days. It's just so fun to be able to bamf around, and the positioning power is unrivaled.

Fly

 

 

 

There is a case to be made for Foot Stomp but as long as it resides in a powerset that relies on Rage to be any good, it's just hard to find a reason to use it, so I guess it's my favorite power I'll never play with.

When Live went dark I found myself missing control in general, and specifically Seeds of Confusion.  

 

There is something so satisfying about leaping over a group and flinging seeds, landing, and watching them duke it out amongst themselves.

 

Carrion Creeper is a close second.

Rain of Arrows... it looks so epic and performs equal to my expectations on my arch/fire blaster that I fully recreated from live.... maybe it is the combination of melee range, things on fire, and epic aiming as enemies run in terror...

 

I am genuinely disappointed when archers in other games can't do a powerful rain of arrows. 😪

I mean, look at my avatar...

 

The animation of bone smasher is just so... equally heroic and hilariously ridiculous.  Raise arms in air, create glowing pom-poms, smash downwards.  I love it.  It still carries the original 'wow' factor of the first one-shot attack I saw.

I have done a TON of AE work, both long form and single arc. Just search the AE mish list for my sig @cranebump. For more information on my stories, head to the AE forum sub-heading and look for “Crane’s World.” Support your AE authors! We ARE the new content.

Howling Twilight.

Nice sfx, auto-hit stun AOE. Glorious!

The side-effect that rezzes any dead teamates can come in handy, too!

 

Now that you can make them look like you, Phantom Army is a favorite, also!

For play purposes:  DNA Siphon.  That **** does everything.

 

For animation:  Atom Smasher and variants.

 

The power I desperately wish I had in real life:  Super Jump

Mass Levitate. They designed it pretty well with the violent eruption of screen shaking energy. Then its 'weeeeeeeee', free ride!
