Well, 'tis the season. The characters have been pooled (sometimes...multiple times), the numbers have been chosen (again, sometimes....multiple times) and we finally have our drafts and opponents:


Damborg
Osiris
Medusa
Atlas
VS
Beatboks
Omni-Man


Leo
Ghost Rider (Johnny Blaze)
Mercer Drake
Ultimate Reed Richards
VS
Smurph
Black Bolt


Saint
Lobo
VS
Bentley
Fin Fang Foom
Wendigo


- separate characters
- no bfr
- no prep
- 0.5 km starting distance
- battlefield = normal Earth that regenerates
- 1st post PMd to Phildo by Saturday, 2nd post posted by each participant by Tuesday, last post by next Friday.

Who will win, who will die???? Call them here, now!

Bentley
I think Darksaint will throw against Bentley

Sin I AM
Some good matches. So no amalgam?

Philosophía
Imo:

Leo/Smurph
Saint
Bentley/Damborg
Beatboks

I think whomever manages to advance between Leo and Smurph will be the big favorite to win. The other would be hard pressed to deal with the raw power or raw versatility/trickery can bring.

Saint has a very good brick. Damborg has a VERY interesting combination that he could do a lot with. Bentley has individual powerhouses that are hard to put down, but aren't too complementary to each other. Beatboks has the classic powerset which, if played right, could move him up quite a bit here.

No amalgam, no. I agree with Phildo, the Smurph/Leo match is the one to watch imho. Can't call it between the two, they're both pretty much the top posters, who also have the best characters here.

I obv favour myself to win my match, and the Dambo/Boks match...I am willing to be surprised. Omni Man is being underestimated here, I think, as well as Osiris.

lol that's a classic scene.

my money is on ds if i had to pick right now. i for one confess to having no idea how to beat an army of lobos. /shrug

but i agree omni-man is being slept on.

Smurph
My money is on Leo demolishing me with some absurd shenanigans and then bullshitting his way to the crown.

Smurph

beatboks
Fixed it for you.
Omni man isn't being slept on, who has him doesnt have the interest to use the character type well enough. In the hands of another debater he would be higher

I'll throw something, alright.

Only SEVEN POA? Eesh.

Damborgson
Let me make this very clear...

The only person who's going to win here, is me.

I'm not looking past Beatboks, I'm looking through him, which is exactly where I'm going.

I actually know least about your team, lol. So am prepared to be surprised.

Not sure how Medusa would be able to resist that tache, though.

Today's the day for OPs! Who's excited (apart from me)???????

Philosophía
Well, bump. lol

DarkSaint85
Some have fallen, some have gone through.

How have the odds now changed?

leonidas
You and your billion clones are the biggest tourney favourite that I can ever remember. laughing out loud

Damborgson
It won't matter now that Beatboks has Hulk.

Philosophía
Beatboks is Beatboks.

One Big Mob
Bentley picked the worst characters ever. Fell into Mungi's long con of pretending Wendigo is good.

I take it back. Bentley has a lot of mental fortitude to continue on after being railroaded like that.

The fix is in.

O_o

I would have preferred to keep Omni Man if I was going to have anorher brick. About as strong and durable with better speed (multi faster than light speed that I was holding back for later rounds) and FLIGHT

https://ibb.co/RT9CzRM

My fault for not throwing in that and the dozen or so MFTL speed feats I had found to our battle.

Que Sera Sera

beatboks
saint and Smurph 2-1

Leo 4-1 (his redraft didn't do him any favors. He-man can pull something if he can find those obscure showings.


me 10-1

beatboks

This was pretty accurate in terms of the relative positions, actually. Kudos.

Philosophía
Beatboks now dislikes you, so you don't want his new predictions to jinx you!

Philosophía
Darksaint vs Bentley /Mirror Master]

Since tomorrow the final starts -- thoughts from everybody? Who is the favorite? What are the odds?

DarkSaint85
Well I've been nerfed heavily to not have like 50% of my abilities, whilst others got battle cats and shit

Bentley
What abilities did you lose? I hope you're not implying that half of Lobo's powerset consists in becoming a ghost.

DarkSaint85
And my 4th wall abilities sad I was going to come to France and punch you out.

THEN possess you.

Bentley
I don't care if Lobo is a toon character, he's lucky I can't get back at him after reading those comicbooks ahah
