batdude123
This thread will confirm the characters we have in the tourney. If any changes are made in a character roster, this is the place to do it.

Scoobless
I confirm that you suck.

stick out tongue

batdude123
Possibly.... but in any case, this is the thread to switch your character line up if you should so desire.

Scoobless
How long will this be up?

batdude123
Probably for a few days to a week.

I think they'd like a more definite answer so that they can switch at the VERY end of the confirmation period.

batdude123
I'll have on later one. I have to contemplate my options here.

DarkCrawler
As it stands now, me and BW are going to have:

1st round character - Black Alice (Blair Wind's character)
2nd round character - All-Star Superman (DarkCrawler's character)
3rd round character - The Keeper (Team character)

It MIGHT change, but it probably won't happen.

Blair Wind
ok....we wanna change


no one smile

batdude123
Cool, that's 1 team...

King Kandy
I'm keeping my roster at Fallen One, He-Man and Graviton.

batdude123
2 teams

Devil Lance
Lucid and I will stay with our team of

Quasar-Me
Mangog- Team
X-Man- Lucid

Beta Ray Howard
To be honest, a lot of these teams have some excellent picks. Some of them were kinda out of left field (Black Alice, X-Man)

Anyways....if matches start on sunday (I am assuming this) this should end what thursday? (to give people time to prepare for the teams they are going against)

Scoobless
Digi is still looking into a couple of the characters we're considering.

It'd help if we knew how long this was going to be up for.

Spartan. And thanks....I edited it in.

As for Union, not sure....I complained briefly, but didn't put as much effort into it as I usually do with protests.

DigiMark007
I'm assuming this will be open for switches until at least the end of tomorrow (Tuesday). Scoob and I are discussing some last-minute stuff.

...

But rest assured I don't plan on stirring up controversy. We might make a switch (we're not sure yet), but our choice is completely under the limits, and consistent with other drafts that have been allowed.

Blair Wind
banned

stick out tongue

Roldz
Superman Red/Blue Nino's
Union Roldz
Spartan w/ Void Team

Question; Is there a purpose of why where writing to whose char. pick the char. belongs to? Is it cause where only able to debate the char. of my pick/ team pick of the team?

Ohh by the way Union cant make any construct, but can absorb and make it his own.. There goes the secret..

Blair Wind
I have a scan showing him making his staff turn into a gun in which he killed himself with no expression

and yes. I will not be able to debate for Superman but I can debate for both Black Alice (my character) and Keeper (my team character). Just like DC will debate for Superman and Keeper.

Roldz
You meant when he commited suicide, well I quess he can reconfigure his staff to any form he chooses it has limit and it completely far diff. than say a Gl ring or an independent construct...

So do we have to make a write up to each of our char. pick/team pick? Or do we make just 1 big write up?

DigiMark007
Each combatant has a limit of 10 posts. In those posts, you can argue for your 2 characters, and likewise for your partner.

Any arguments made for the character you're not allowed to debate for will either be ignored and/or edited by myself after an approval from BD.

...I also edited in the Spartan bio.

Blair Wind
Are we still getting the one team writeup in the beginning of the matches PM'd to Batdude?

Yeah, I think so. But it can only include "prep time" as far as I know....not actual battle stuff.

Blair Wind
......I would vote for prep and a battle write up at the same time yes

DigiMark007
Originally posted by Blair Wind

I'd actually just vote for prep. A lot of our prep stuff is to establish what we're doing, and working with all 3 characters is very important.

But the battle stuff we can handle on our own with our characters. Hell, we have 10 posts each....that should be more than enough. It also makes a clear distinction between prep and battle, and makes it easier for viewers to read.

Are all the judges assigned for the tourney? If not, I'd like to be an alternate.

Tourney battles should always start with an initial fight plan PMd to the host for posting.... that way you get to see both teams ideas of the battle before they are influenced by the other teams tactics.

Draft Announcement: Scoobless and I are making a switch.

We are switching out Mr. Majestic and replacing him with Space Phantom !

He will remain Scoob's character.

Now. A few things before Blair gets his panties in a bunch...

1. Space Phantom's power is to "become" other characters, with their body and powers.
2. As per tourney limits, we cannot "become" anyone at or beyond Thanos.
3. We are also limited to 2 body-switches per battle, much as BA was limited.
4. Space Phantom, by the very nature of his powers, cannot become anyone whose power is magical. He's limited to non-magic beings.
5. SP must also know of the person's existence to become them. No other connection is necessary, but he won't be pulling people from, say, the DC universe.
6. He also doesn't gain their memories, experiences, skills, etc. of the person he's becoming. Just the person's body and inherent powers.
7. We also cannot become anyone we are directly facing in a tourney battle.

...

I hope that calms some fears about him being a cheap pick. It's not any different than other picks that have been allowed.

I have the initial 'ok' from BD, but I would also assume that Mr. Majestic will remain ours until the pick is verified.

Blair Wind
......how is that a physical secondary draft character? The only explaintion that I could see working is if he ONLY changed into physical type characters. No other matter manipulation powers or some such right?

edit: my other stuff was answered

Actually, I think Blair/DC where restricted from stealing the other teams powers because BA could take out 2/3 of the opposition right from the get go. So you might actually be able to copy from the other team since they retain thier powers.

Also, is the limit that the individuals powers that are stolen from are below Thanos, or the combined sum of the powers are below Thanos?

No, if he becomes someone else he loses the first person's powers. We won't be adding two people together.

...and as I understood it from BD, we could become anyone we weren't directly facing in the battle. But the person SP becomes gets sent to a dimensional prison, so that would prevent us from becoming someone on the other team.

yeah thats what I was thinking hes not really a brick if he can become anyone including other people with their main powers being non physical ones.

I see him more as a third round pick

so as a substitution for your brick character I say

He takes their power/appearance and shunts the copied character to limbo ... so we wouldn't be allowed to copy who we're fighting.

He can only copy one character at a time.

None of the combinations we CAN make (since spectre, Zatanna, and Fate are over the limit) are over thanos erm

All the people we know she has been around, and all the people she has taken powers from, no two in combination could take on thanos

We also switch Adam Warlock for The Doctor. And Thor for Hulk Killer Humanoid.

Is it any different if you use BA to take a magical brick (Cpt. Marvel, for example...a "brick" in every sense of the word, but magically powered)?? Or a magical GL (Alan pops to mind)? Those obviously fit into different categories than Round 1.

SP's inherent power prevents him from becoming magical characters. Otherwise, I don't really see the problem.

its all magic eek!

It is different, because while we have a foundation to base on HOW we got those powers (magic being a first round draft, and Black Alice being a magical character) you have no basis on the BRICK/physical draft erm

No chance, Marvel and Black Adam were never going to be first round characters.

How they got their power is irrelevant, they're bricks.

Just like Alan Scott and Thor were third round only drafts even though their powers have a magical basis.

DigiMark007
...it's just semantics though. Thor's "base stats" make him a brick, but he's obviously a round 3 pick because of what he'll be used for in the fight. It's the opposite idea with someone like a GL, whose base stats aren't any different than SP. SP won't see any time in his regular body except for the beginning of our prep period, so it's what he being used for that should count.

{edit} Scoob said pretty much the same thing.

I concur with your evaluation, Scoobs.

I don't think it's fair for one team to post a strategy, and then have the other team able to prepare accordinbly having already saw the prep post.

oh bs roll eyes (sarcastic)

BA own power is Magical , the people she steals from powers are magic based, and almost all their attacks are some form of Magic.

Also just because Alan scott has powers akinn to a GL doesn't mena he can't fall under the Magic category since his powers are magical in nature.

While your character can get the powers of characters who are not bricks. Thus not making him a round 2 pick.

BA gets power from people who are magical

The argument is being made that SP could take powers from someone who starts in a different category than him. Black Alice taking Juggernaut powers would be exactly the same thing, draft 1 wasn't magic based characters it was energy/magic using characters who wouldn't fit into other categories.

Alan Scott was banned from round one... we asked about him as he would have been our first choice.

I'm fine with SP if he can only get the abilities of bricks if he gets anyone else he's a round 3 pick.

as a round 2 pick H*ll no

I realize you're backing up your opinion, but it's not straight-up BS. Byt this estimation, you're saying it's ok to use Alan (a round 3 pick) for round 1 purposes (with BA). All we're asking is the same leverage.

We're arguing for this round based on what he'll be used for, because SP's base stats don't fit him completely into any round.

I specifically wanted X-Man as a round 1 character, but I decided at this point in the game I'd give you guys a break. wink

I'd say I've been pretty lenient as far as characters go. I've allowed Mangog, EX AM, BA, and Keeper.... all against my better judgement.

Then why aren't you saying the same thing about Black Alice?

With characters like Black Adam, Alan Scott, etc that she can steal from she could clearly be taking power from outside her draft round.

Space Phantom himself only has physical abilities until he switches bodies.

It's exactly the same thing.

I see Alan as a magic character

GL's powers are science based Alans Starheart powers is magic

I beleive he could fall under round 1 I see no real difference to him compared to someone like Quasar.

Alan has not showed as much versatality as a GL

He can't stop time to muy knowledge he hasn't been shown to be able to teleport I haven't seen him amp up his strength. He hasn't been shown to my knowledge to be able to manipulate energy and matter to the extent the top GL.

Is Alan alittle more powerful then GL's like Guy or John but hes no where near as versatile as them. wink

I agree. It shouldn't matter WHAT is copied by the character in question, just HOW it's copied. BA steals powers by magic and is thus a first round pick, even though characters like Black Adam and Sentinel fall into other categories. So by the same token, since SP copies things physically he should fall into category 2. I might see changing him to a category 1 as a matter manipulator, but no way a category 3 with the precedent that's been set.

mo it should matter whats copied

I'm all for banning Black Alice from using people like WW and, Ba's power.

she still has many more options

and Sentinel is a round one character he is no where near as versatile as a GL.

Well see that would be different. If BA WAS restricted to stealing from people that would fall under category 1 then yeah, SP should be restricted to copying from bricks. But I've been under the assumption that she'd be able to steal from anyone she has in the past that was under Thanos.

Whatever. Let him in. I just want to get this tourny started.

anyone she has stolen from and any of the shadow pact
and the only people worthwhile from that team are Enchantress and Nightshade.

I think to make this fair we should ban BA from becomeing Bricks like Adam or WW.

uh....nah.

From the start we have already had the conversation as to what powers she could and could not have. Me and DC have been planning with the knowledge that people had accepted her powers and who she could copy. Your gonna pull the rug on us now after all the planning we have done? One of my many strategies for at least two teams is with a magical "brick" which batdude knows about and has approved. It would be unfair for us to have to redo our strategies NOW at this point in the game.

Let them have their character. I already have a plan against him erm

Genis would've likely been banned....no definite power level, and possibly beyond the limits. Supreme...meh. Probably a good choice, but is he really better than most of the other Superman archetypes we have in round 2?

DigiMark007
And Scoob and I need to consider all of this. General consensus seems to be thumb up to SP, with a few limits. We need to look over everything that's been said, maybe get some final rulings from BD (not just "yes or no", but specific limits for SP) and we'll decide for sure.

...and as we're not sure if he's completely allowed at this point under the stipulations we expect to have, I'll have to assume that Majestic is still in limbo, so that someone doesn't take him, SP gets banned or severely limited, and we're screwed over and left with no one.

DL/LL are set I think, roldz is set I think.

No one in the tourney? Or in the battle? Because the 2nd of those was how it was explained to me.

And Genis couldve fit the scale under thanos.Barely...but he couldve fit.

Yes he is.

Beware with Supreme, in fact be very worried if you are facing him and your opponent knows anything about him.

DigiMark007
Scoob and I are confirming our team.

Based on discussion, it seems like SP's getting in, and without overly limiting restrictions. His natural power limitations (see my initial switch to him on page 2) should provide a healthy buffer anyway.

In any case, we'll be sticking with him.

Adam Warlock - Digi
Space Phantom - Scoobless
Thor (Classic) - Both

Surfer might be more versatile, but from what I understand with the Starheart he was way more powerful than Surfer.

Blair Wind
From what you understand? Eh....powerful yes, but Surfer beats him in the things he can do. Sentinel is nothing but blasts, nothing really creative. But your pick your loss. erm

Better to beat you with evil face

DarkCrawler
I'm a huge Alan Scott fan, in fact I am going to make his Respect Thread soon too...he only has fraction of Starheart, not the whole one. The whole Starheart owned him in battle. All in all...he is maybe Hal/Kyle level in fields and stuff, but lacks the same versality normal GL's have because of different power source.

We were considering him first, but thought his durability/Strength and offensive power on the whole wasn't on level of other Herald levels. I'd defenitely keep Surfer with the huge amount of feats he has in that Respect page of his...

shhhh...dont tell him all that. no expression

roll eyes (sarcastic) Darth......with a character like AM versatility is always better. But ok...make your own grave big grin

DarkCrawler
Eh, I just don't want to see people make wrong choices. Sentinel should be more on the side of energy character though, I think...he isn't really physical type guy.

Besides, we want challenge, right? wink

Yes but you've pretty much rendered Surfer obsolete in a match with you and Blair. Bigbran and I want to WIN this thing if possible, not come in second.

DarkCrawler
Well, from what I have seen, Surfer > Sentinel. I guess you have some strategy to power-mesh him, then. smile

Doesn't Surfer have at least the advantage of more exotic powers, such as tying one's life force to a world, etc?

Roldz
Hey, Darth if you guys have drop Surfer for your 3rd pick can we take im, i know we've confirmed our pick already but i dont think its still to late to change.. Just as thought..

Well actually I've just thought of something, so I'd like to leave Surfer in limbo until I hear from bigbran tonight. But if we stay firm in our decision to lose him, there's no problem in your taking him. I'll know for sure by either tonight or tomorrow.

Roldz
Your pulling the limbo trick to ay... laughing Kay, I get first dibs dough if you decide otherwise.. Spartan W/ Void i could use both there feats but i prefer to use somone of diff. company..

Blair Wind
I dont want to sound like a jerk, and Im not sure about everyone else, but I would really appreciate it everyone picked by today. So that teams matched up on sunday could have SOME time to prepare.

So if the two remaining teams (with Darth/Goobers picks currently in limbo) and Souja/MM could confirm by tonight I would really appreciate it.

laughing out loud I am laughing at my own private joke....thank god khell fought me last time. AND that I have an account on herochat. Hehehe

Why did he used desame character in your last match w/ em?

Ohh if Darth drops Surfer, well pick em up and drop Spartan w/ void..

Truth be told, if possible I'd like to request that bigbran and I start with our first match NEXT Sunday. I actually have a lot of stuff going on with my kid during this up coming week, and it would be easier for me if my match didn't come until after. This would also allow for whoever foes up against bigbran and I a bit more time to prepare, since we're cutting the final selection so close. I'll understand if everything has already been decided though, I was just throwing that out there.

Blair Wind
So long as everyone gets confirmed I think requests for second or first weeks can be dealt with by Batdude erm

I myself start school next week again, but I have no issue with either week, and I dont think DC has any pressing needs for either week either. So we can go any week smile

Meh, I might actually give pure power to Alan. But Surfer's definitely more versatile.

I have a few cool Alan feats (he actually already has a respect thread), and we were considering him too....but didn't have enough material on him justify the pick. We also tried to get him into round 1 based on his magic, but it was no dice from BD.

...

But I like the switch. It's obviously a calculated risk, what with getting rid of Surfer, but as long as they have a plan it should be interesting.

Hopefully bigbran will be on in not very long so we can decide for certain. Sorry for keeping things up in the air but there's still one more thing we need to talk about.

Blair Wind
Its ok...at least you've kept us posted on whats going on. I would like to know whats up with the Souja/MM team....

DigiMark007
Yeah, it's fine guys...better right than sorry. But do Souja/MM know they have to "confirm" it officially?

Blair Wind
Ive sent them both pms. Souja responded saying thanks....and thats it. erm

Hey Digi....I say you should do a Dino Comic for whoever wins laughing out loud

and of course let them change the name in the off topic thread big grin

Nice sig no expression

pr1983
laughing nice sig scoob... i have no problem about whatever date the tourney is on, its just that i started a new job, and i wont be online before 7pm GMT (2pm EST) at all... anytime later than that (but not too late) is good for me...

sentinel is a good pick imo, but dropping surfer... i have to say i didnt see that coming, if anything i thought surfer was one of the most desirable picks in round 3...

DigiMark007
laughing out loud

...oh god, that'll be a great match if it ever happens...we just keep upping the ante.

And yeah, in lieu of actual team sigs (we can't decide on a name) that will do nicely.
