BRB, Black Adam....are these guys legal? Or are they considered > WW even though they exist in the same tier over in the comics forum?

Those are the first people I suggested to leo when we were bantering about the tourney a week or so ago, but I figured they'd probably be banned.

So thoughts on the current roster? Of course opinions will change once more picks are added (and I fully expect a full post made by darthgoober going on about what he thinks when all is said and done smile

)

Why are you so interested in my opinion? You, leo, Fox, DL, and pr all have more in the way of actual tourney experience than I do. This is actually only going to be my second tourney as a participant...

I'll make a long-ish post on this tourney and everyone's chances. I'm an objective outsider with enough knowledge to seem credible, and draft picks always intrigue me....goober said everything I would've about Evangel's tourney so maybe I'll steal his thunder this time.

But full rosters should happen before the detailed analysis.

Actually, aside from pr's pseudo-stint as a sub for Smurph's team in ill's tourney, I think he only has one past tourney to his credit (the Superman/Hal/Vulcan thing with Roldz n the last partner tourney).

But yeah, you're still a newb.

rewmac, dude... stick out tongue

and i am on smurphs team full time, its just that real life, and the fact that i havent been able to read up as much on akuki's team as i'd like meant that i havent been able to contribute as much as i'd like... i will be full on in the third round, and beyond if we win...

no doubt. i had a list of characters i thought would be gone in that first rd though, and only about 1/3 of them disappeared. there were 3 i was REALLY hoping i would be able to get, alas . . .

i wonder how badly everyone else's strategies were affected? i have plenty of alternates, but there was 1 pick in particular i really did want.

curse you, smurph . . . curse you . . .

I've lost 3 of my intended nine thus far, but there are others I still available that'll maintain the overall strategy. The 2nd choice characters will be mostly fine in terms of abilities, but will be less well known. Hopefully in a judged tourney that won't hurt as much as it does in open voting.

the lesser knowns are always a bit of a risk, but with this many characters being drafted there is little option. erm

aye... but i do think that the more obscure a character is, the more you can get away with in terms of claims about their abilities, and a persons own abilities in the debating arena will be tested that little bit more, which is all the better imo...

Well I think it depends on the judge.

If you have a more lenent Judge then that may be true.

If you have a very straight forward Judge they may want you to clarify more. Which means you have to define the character more, and that takes away from other points you may have wanted to make.

Like I said it just depends but it can be a hindrance.
