poccy crosses the bleed and wants to integrate the carriers tech into his own. apollo and the engineer get wind of the plan and head out to meet him. they fight on an abandoned planetoid. together can they stop him?

Meh ... sure, why not.

At one time, this might have been a stomp. But Apoc has finally stopped jobbing. He just curbstomped Stryfe.

I'm undecided.

i keep hearing he may have finally reached a level everyone wanted him to reach. this is of course using current apoc . . .

Apocalypse

I don't think Apocalypse has much chance of winning.

I wonder if Apoc can wrest control over Engineer.

Not everyone. I enjoy laughing at Apoc.

To be honest, his fight with Stryfe was super-awesome, but it makes little difference to me as far as power-level goes. He's always been low-mid herald ish, and that showing just confirms it. Apocalypse's jobbing is exagerrated. The times he loses it's because he has for some reason, purposely depowered himself.

i was wondering that. it would depend on what kind of technopathic feats he has i guess.

I think Apocalypse can beat them. He could likely draw Apollo's powers out of him to empower himself (like he did Cyclops) while mentally assaulting Angie, then duke it out with her and possibly generate a localized EMP to weaken her (morphing his arm into a device which can generate one), or possibly by outright infecting her with his own techno-organic blood/virus which may be able to override her nanites. I think Apoc is durable enough to tank most of what they'd dish out personally. It wouldn't be a walk in the park, but I think Apoc could win in a somewhat protracted battle.

I'm actually in rough concurrence with delph. I don't think it's a 10/10 either way, but I'm inclined to give Poccy the edge based solely on his versatility. Apollo might be able to speedblitz his ass for a cheap win. If he keeps the pressure up constantly, it's entirely possible that Apollo does this alone. If there's time for Apoc. to start a counter-attack, not as much.

But no, I'm not given him the technopathic edge. There's no precedent from Angie that suggests it would be easy or could be done at all, and she has wrested control of herself against a couple outside influences.

Oh yeah! The Ultimate (Apocalypse) Nullifier! Didn't even think of that. Poccy is screwed.

i think apollo would burn out before he could take apocalypse out. it could go either way but id have to side with apocalypse.

I should really make a mythbusters entry about this. He only burns out when he doesn't have access to the sun. Indoors, nighttime, special circumstances, etc. But even if we presume that he isn't in the sun, a forum-written (?) Apollo could easily take the fight to space (as could Angie) which would remove the problem entirely.

depends on the makeup of the standard kmc battledome

TricksterPriest
And what's stopping Poccy from draining Apollo's power off, like he's done to Cyke and several others? Or temporal BFR? He does have time travel capabilities.

See, this is more reasonable. Which is why I said this:

I still have the big-lipped one ftw here. But it's a damn good fight, not 10/10 either way, especially given Angie's intelligence and ability to adapt on the fly. Angie can build time travel machines too, btw.

wink
