We got a martial arts ranking thread how about ranking for preps? The ranking will depend on what level a threat a villain is and how useful a heros prep is in disasters. For example Thanos can be seen as a universal threat and Reed can be seen as uinversal saviour. Ranking will involve mostly intelligence and resources but not other powers, so for example Thanos used his intelligence and resources to conquer the universe but try not to include other cosmic powers. Ok he probably didnt just use his intelligence but that was the main characteristic that helped him.
Ive decided not include people like Cap because eventhough hes really smart he doesnt really have "resources" like Tony or even Frank Castle, sure he can get stuff but he usually uses his teamates and his smarts.
Anyway attempt at ranks.
Universal threat/Saviour (intelligent enough to destroy, conquer or save the uinverse through intelligence and prep)
Dr Doom, Thanos, Reed, Darkseid, Lex Luthor
Global threat/Saviour (Intelligent enough to destroy, conquer or save the world)
Kang, Master Of The World, Tony Stark
National to Street (Characters that are mainly involved with the streets, this may go as far as them being involved on an international level with espionage but not usually global)
Kingpin, Punisher, Bullseye,
Feel free to alter if you are interested.

Im crap at organsing I suggest we get somebody else to organise it in a similar manner that we have in the MA rankings system. Anyway my suggestion is to add an intergalactic category and possibly multiversal.
So we could have.
Multiversal
Mxy (Debateable that he has tech), Thanos, Darkseid.
Universal
Batman, Lex, Dr Doom, Reed,
Intergalactic
Tony Starks, Supreme Intelligence, Master Of The Worlds
Global
Nick Fury, Red Skull
International to street
Kingpin, Bullseye, Punisher, Crossbones
(Just a suggested list)
I was actually thinking of making a seprate tier like Global, intergalactic and universal. For example I can see Tony using prep to take on Krees and Skrulls but I cant see him taking over the whole universe.
Thats possibly because hes a villain, if Batman was so inclined he could do the same.
Ok no problem buit can you prove it. As far as I know Thanos has taken over the unverse but not more than one.

Phoenix/Dark-Universal threat/Saviour
Appocolypse-Global threat
Venom-National to Street
Galactimus-Universal threat
The Joker-National to Street
The Riddler-Global threat
Mr. Freeze (Zero)-Global threat
I dont care, looking at his intelligence and his resources he could be a universal threat, hes not a villain so hes not inclined to do things that Lex has, not going to argue you about this.
Phoenix is not allowed shes not a prepper. Its a thread for people who use intelligence and resources.
Note
I'll change the list tommorrow but I think we should get some votes on where Batman should be on this hierachy.

Global
Nick Fury, Red Skull, Professor Niles Caulder, Doc Magnus, Mr Freeze, The Riddler, Apocalypse, Hank Pym

Note
Should Mxy be on this list? Should Dr Strange be on this list most of his prep comes from magic. I dont think Venom should be on this list either not really a prepper.
What are the votes for Batman and Lex there seems to be a difference of opinion?
1 Vote for Lex to World from Universal
Yeah? Were on the list?
