Yep Yep. I'm saying that Adam Magus would lose in a forum battle that he gets no outside help from the scores of people that give him his power boosts.
Magus had no aid when he took on the gotg and did so while weakened.
He is the head of the ucot anyways so power he obtains from them is fair game anyways. It's not like he was drawing power from any other characters outside the ucot.
Forum rules are forum rules, and they dictate no outside help, he would be on his own, and taking multiple hits from bombs that would shake planetary masses. How many of those can he possibly take?
That isn't outside help it's well within his powers to call upon this energy. Magus can survive having his heart ripped out and has the skill to catch cap's shield while fighting someone else coming as his back all while weakened.
It's like saying Larfleeze can't use his battery. Magus has access to ucot just like Iron man has access to his tech.

the rules forbid them from using outside resource not there standard abilities they are all assumed to operate fully within their abilities which means Mephisto doesnt weaken b/c he is outside his realm in a forum match unless specifically stated.
the time gem still works regardless of it being outside it;s universe.. etc ect..
stop citing rules that you havent read..
might as well go to comicvine and argue with them if you are gonna post this type of sh#$.
you bn getting progressively worse lately.
Full Capacity
It is assumed that each contestant will fight to his/her best ability, but still within the character's personality, unless specified otherwise. That means they will use any powers at their disposal. For example, even though The Flash doesn't clock each of his own opponents in the first millisecond in his own comic, it is assumed that is a viable tactic on this board since it is a proven fact that he possesses that level of speed.
It is also assumed that the characters fight at their optimum levels of ability - not explicitly weakened or unusually powered up for those who have variable power levels.
Concerning the Battlefield
Unless otherwise stated by the thread originator, the standard distance between combatants will be .5 kilometers in line of sight at the onset of battle, and there will be an implied "buzz" to signify the onset of battle. It will be assumed combatants are primed to go at the gun.
Also, all characters, regardless of where the fight takes place, or what universe/medium they are native to, will have full access to their abilities at optimum efficiency as they are depicted in their native universes. It will be assumed that each character fights as they are normally presented regardless of battle locale. This means that, for example, Flash will in fact have SpeedForce abilities if the battle took place in Marvel Manhattan. Battles will always take place on an assumed equal playing field.
Not quite the same thing. Magus would be in a neutral universe that the church did not exist, therefore calling on the aid of his members would be null and void. Someone like Mangog is different because the power of billions is within him see the difference? Adam Magus is not in this state at all times, therefore it is an outside power up, which by forum rules is not allowable. Characters like Thor, Larfleeze, and Hal Jordan are different because they can carry their items of power with them anywhere.
If Adam Magus were operating at optimum ability all of the time why then was he so easily killed? You stand on the side lines waiting to pounce without fully understanding my meaning, or refusing to see what I am conveying, while anxiously waiting to point the finger. The Universal Church of Truth is an outside amplification. Adam Magus while under the influence of this power up should be considered to be receiving outside help. The flash is also excluded from this, because if he were unable to use the Speed Force there would be nothing to debate over, he would be a normal fictional human. Adam Magus however, has his own power without outside aid. I get it though, you're trying desperately to place me in a bad light. I explained why I feel that Adam Magus, would be cheating if he were allowed to amp off of his external source if you don't see it, then you don't.
Listen I stated why I believed that Adam Magus at his best comic showing was amped by outside forces. This reasoning is unique, he is not James Madox, or Mangog, or classic Lobo. Adam Magus was tapping into an outside power source other than his own.
How about this, let's give Adam Magus this amplification (calling in his troops as it were), and then let's pit him against WW Hulk at his highest level and climbing, while assuming that he will not be holding his power in check. Then you tell me if Adam Magus, could withstand punches that would shatter a planet... Even though he had such a limited run with these obscure and undefined abilities. My guess is that this is a debate, that would likely never end.
