I did this for a past tourney, so maybe it'll be fun again.

For those who might not know, the 5th (known) KMC comic tournament is underway. 8 teams of 2 participants will choose 3 herald-level characters and duke it out.

Everyone from the forum is invited to watch the matches as well as vote in the poll for whomever you think is the victor (which will act as a tie-breaker if the judges for the match are split). I will ask, however, that once they're open you refrain from too many comments unless they pertain directly to the match (and leave the debating to the participants).

I'd also stress that matches are both team power and debating skill. Just one or the other won't get you there, so whoever might have the slightly most powerful team won't necessarily be assured of the win.

Matches will begin in roughly a week and a half (give or take).

Currently, the field looks like this with 2 more drafts to go:
1. Batdude/DarkCrawler - Magneto (Team) - http://spider-bob.com/villains/dc/Cyborg_Superman.htm
2. Leonidas/Khan - Silver Surfer (Team)- http://www.marveldirectory.com/individuals/s/silversurfer.htm
3. Newjak/BlairWind - Green Lantern Kyle Rayner (BW) - http://www.starnet-database.com/dbase_deo/profiles/green_lantern/gl.html
4. AdamWarlock/Accel - Quasar (AW) - http://www.marvel.com/universe/Quasar
5. GreyFox/Psyquis - Cyborg Superman (GF) - http://spider-bob.com/villains/dc/Cyborg_Superman.htm
6. DevilLance/Superherovandal - Gladiator (Team) - http://www.marveldirectory.com/individuals/g/gladiatorii.htm
7. Lilnutta12/Slither
8. AJ/Sam Z

...

The current favorite has to be the returning champion from the last tourney (and his partner) Blair and newjak, based solely on experience (which has been shown to be important in the past). But AW is also a tourney vet, and regular forums vets like leo and DC are pocked around as well. And plenty of people have made names for themselves taking down "big guns" in tourneys before (Blair, for example, was hardly a favorite going into the last tourney).

So...

If 8/1 is the average, we'll start Blair/newjak at about 6/1. Leo/Kahn, AW/Accel, and batdude/DC at 8/1. DL/Superherovandal and GF/Psyquis at 10/1. AJ/Sam Z at 12/1 (no pick). And Lilnutta/Slither at 20/1 since they might not even be in it (we're not sure).

This could all change though, and obviously will.

So, what odds would all of you have? And who would you pick at various odds, a favorite for less of a payoff or an underdog with a bigger payoff?

Have fun. wink

Nah, but you can watch the battles and vote for who you think "won" it. Stuff like "Woo...go kick ass!" should be kept to the tourney discussion thread and kept out of the battles themselves.

I mean I came here and got very interested in Evangel's tourny and kept up with every match. Then I competed in one and did pretty well I mean I lost 1st round but the person who beat me went to the finals. And BW of course won the last Tourny and I Judged heavily for that one so even not competing I was still a big part of the tourny going on.

Blair Wind
eh, all egotistical notions aside, I have a plan for everyone so far (based only on their first character and on mine).....but I KNOW who I would want to debate with least. Id say other than the fact that I want to win, and ignoring Digis rating on myself Id think that the numbers are pretty accurate.

Even odds on former champs Jinzin/Scoobess coming out of nowhere to steal the win. thumb up

Meh , I think I did pretty well .

I slapped around a guy who tried to say he could coat his characters in adamantium and forcefields.

Then I had to deal with the bridesmaid......

I got robbed in Evangel's herald level amaglam tourney. longpig had snuck in Strange into his amaglam while he wasn't to well known. mad

Now that the rules are so much clearer, It'll be easier to keep our characters base powers similar.

I think representatives from Team Magik will make a great impact in this tournament. Possibly pulling off an upset to win the whole damn thing. That is my prediction. stick out tongue Happy Dance

That's ok. It's not as bad as half of the participants not knowing the power cap of one of the other amalgam tourneys. (Individually can't exceed Spidey level or altogether can't exceed Spidey level) laughing

DarkCrawler
Mine and Illadelph's match is leegendary (at least if length is considered) and me and Scoobs had pretty good match too. Although I lost the both sad. Not by much though.

outarddwarf
GF/psyquis for the win.

Soleran
Hmm this should be interesting, Batdude123 he only gave you 10/1 odds because DC was saving your ranking otherwise I am not so sure it would have even been 10/1 evil face

what are people thinking about the characters?

DigiMark007
I think I'd change a few of the odds at this point, but I can't say who anymore because I don't want to appear biased....debating is huge though, and I think there's a lot of roughly even teams right now.

I'm still surprised Thor made it halfway through round 2. And Captain Atom is probably my favorite semi-obscure pick right now.

Unfortunately, we don't have the token horrible team yet....usually there's one team that's obviously just waiting to be curbstomped in round 1. There's slight favorites and such, but no one has made a strong claim for worst yet.

I figured Thor would be a definite round one pick. Going so late surprised me as well.

I gotta say though, I really like the Magneto/Captain Atom team.

I was suprised as well....but there are several reasons why I suppose (at least that I have come up with)

Only two teams so far are out there that have made me stop to think about my strategies.

No real curbstomp team as well......like the Rhino, Hawkeye from last one.

wink Don't worry! I'll be here all week. You've done great in my absence.

Quite frankly I think the reason GF and myself are getting such low odds is because of myself.

GF would probably do a lot better if he used someone else but since he has me...I'm going to have to actually try to win a debate for once. big grin

This should be interesting.

Lemme just say that I think the Corps is being well represented so far, even without perennial tourney powerhouses like Scoob, Khell, and others.

And the fact that I stated that I would have probably picked Thor #1 overall obviously betrays some of my feelings toward whoever has him. Though 1 person can't make a team, so he's not everything...just a darn good start.

wink

...still, we'll see how the battles play out. Like Scoob said, a few match-ups are horrible for some and great for others, so depending on how the random draw plays out, it could change the dymnamics of round 1.

Blair Wind
shifty

Its ok Digi.....though I know my team doesnt seem as powerful as the others....Im confident.

SS/Hal is good
Thor on any team is goog
Mag/Cap is interesting.....not sure whats going on their
Quasar/Ronan solid team
Majestic/Black Adam....badass characters
Glads/MM....decent picks
Black Bolt is good
Kyle/Mogo shifty

Blair Wind
From Darkcrawler:

So, now that teams are complete, I did a little writeup what I think of them. big grin

The Uniqueness Rating tells how interesting the teams are to me. It doesn't tell anything about overall formitability.

1. Newjak/Blair Wind
G.L. Kyle Rayner (BW)
Shaman (Team)
Juggernaut (Newjak)

I'm liking the Lords of Chaos team. They sure have a nice stability with an powerful cosmic force, powerful magic, and sheer brute force and durability. Only thing that might be concerning is the Juggernaut's lacking ability to fly...when most teams have all their members in the air.

Team Uniqueness rating: 7.5/10

2. Leo/Kahn
Silver Surfer (Team)
G.L. Hal Jordan (Kahn)
Loki, dammit! (Leo)

The Plot Devicestick out tongue team is strong as ever, and they have even more plotdeviceness with the addition of plot device magic from Loki. All are powerful characters.

Team Uniqueness rating: 6.7/10

3. Batdude/DC
Magneto (Team)
Captain Atom (Batdude)
Morg (DC)

evil face

Physics R You

Team Uniqueness rating: 9/10

4. AW/Accel
Quasar (AW)
Ronan the Accuser (Accel)
Hyperion (Supreme Power) (Team)

Cosmic Guy team is cool. Both Quasar and Ronan are very unique choices. Only time will tell how the relatively unexperienced Supreme Power Hyperion will do here against some more established characters.

Team Uniqueness rating: 9/10

5. GF/Psyquis
Cyborg Superman (GF)
Thor (Team)
Ray II (Psyquis)

Cyborg Superman was certainly someone I couldn't except, unlike Thor. Ray II seems interesting, it will be fun to watch how he is handled in Brute and the Beast team.

Team Uniqueness rating: 7.9/10

6. DL/Superherovandal
Gladiator (Team)
Martian Manhunter (SHV)
Orion (DL)

Martian Manhunter is a character I didn't think to be in tourney like this. But him combined with Orion and Gladiator is interesting, and this team clearly has lot of raw power, so maybe Martian Manhunter will compensate to that with his more exotic powers. Last of the Mohicans team will be followed by me.

Team Uniqueness rating: 6.9/10

7. Khell/KVD
Black Bolt (Team)
Beta Ray Bill (Khell)
Witchfire (KVD)

Silent Thunder is a solid, powerful team. Witchfire is character who I don't know nothing about, so it will be fun to see how he works with Beta Ray Bill and Black Bolt. And Black Bolt and BRB are also very nice characters.

Team Uniqueness rating: 8.2/10

8. AJ/Sam Z
Majestic (??)
Black Adam (??)
Supreme (??)

What Royal Rumblers lacks in something, it makes up with Superman type characters. Certainly an interesting choice to not have any cosmic characters, or magic besides of course Black Adam. Will be nice to watch. Haven't also seen a lot from Supreme.

Team Uniqueness rating: 7/10

Blair Wind
now that everyone knows basically what the teams are gonna look like, whats the odds?

Blair Wind
no one? Well fine Ill do it myself, in order (without numbers) of who I would want to face least as a competitor, and excluding myself and my team

Leo/Kahn
Khell
AW/GF/DCs teams
DL/SH
AJ/Sam

just the way I see if power wise....of course I did not take in creativity and use of said powers. (Khell/GF/AW can come up with creative wins with their characters) But raw power wise, thats the way I see it....

*None of the above statements take into account what I think of my team, or how I plan to beat them all big grin

I think a lot of people sort of see it like this....with your team mixed somewhere throughout depending on how much faith they have in Shaman.

But debating will play a huge part.

But I'd enjoy arguing for AJ's team. "We're going to punch you in the face wicked hard. Then do it again until you die. You lose." cool

What, "wind?" Nice clue. roll eyes (sarcastic) Come on, I don't know Alpha Flight very well at all. My best guess would be the IW ripoff. blink

it's not Windshear, this character is stronger than him and was built to take on a cosmic being.

By default, their odds go up right now until this week is over and we have our other 2 semi-finalist teams.

They're both about 4/1, whereas the other teams are 6/1....mathmatically speaking.

I thought about bumping the old odds thread from Evangel's tourney too, the one Scoob won with Flash Thordon....and more importantly, where he paid everyone off to sneak in the win against General Kinky.
