Single Pick1- Wundarr the Aquarian Amalgam1- Madison Jeffries (with Box)/Professor Ivo Amalgam2- Element Lad/Brainiac5
So far, his plan seems somewhat obvious.
Also dangerous.
A couple distinct holes, but, if B-Dub covers them with his next picks, he could have one of the top teams so far.
Goober
Single Pick1- Absorbing Man Amalgam1-He-Man/Skeletor Amalgam2-Monica Rambeau (Photon)/Warrior
So... I can tell the direction some of his amalgams are going in thus far. Individually they're powerful, but I'm waiting to see how they'll mesh together in a grand scheme.
Someone to keep an eye on, for sure though. Goob knows what he's doing.
Grey Fox
Single Pick1- Magneto Amalgam1- Dagon (Humanoid form)/Ranark Amalgam2-Monster-in-the-Iron-Mask/Karate Kid (Pre-c)
Choosing lesser known characters is generally both a blessing, in that they're harder to prep for, and harder to ban, and a curse because they can be hard to provide proof for and such.
Other than that, I dunno what to say about Fox's team.
Smurph
Single Pick1- Black Bolt Amalgam1- Reed Richards/Sage Amalgam2-Firestorm (Ronnie)/Meggan
Clearly the best team so far.
Moving on...
Charlotte
Single Pick1- X-Man Amalgam1- Engineer II/Brainiac8 Amalgam2-Yellowjacket/Shift
Solid picks so far, and definitely ways to work them together... but I'm only seeing potential for high power without total ability to fill it so far... we shall see.
Bran
Single Pick1- Martian Manhunter Amalgam1- Northstar/Juggernaut Amalgam2-Cable/Nova
Straightforward.
Very strong telepathic team too.. in addition to raw might and speed. Covers quite a few bases... clearly a contender, IMO.
Laminator X
Single Pick1- Loki Amalgam1- Spider-Man (circa Civil War)/Atlas Amalgam2-Cassandra Nova/Cloak
Prediction: His plan will either be epic win, or contrived fail. I'm curious as to how the remaining picks will flesh out his team.
Trick
Single Pick1- Dr. Arthur Light Amalgam1- Ikaris/ Atom (Ray Palmer) Amalagam2-Metamorpho/Mar-vell
Nice picks so far... again, it's hard to tell what 's what with the team so far. Trick always has a plan, feasible or otherwise.
Devil lance
Single Pick1- Maxima Amalgam1- Ronan the accuser/Super-skrull Amalgam2-Captain Comet (current)/Krypto
Some of the best picks in the tourney so far, but I'm not seeing the grand plan. Which either means it's very good, or non-existant, and the team will operate solely on might.
Leo
Single Pick1- Sersi Amalgam1- Flash (Jay Garrick)/Forge Amalgam2-Savitar/Vulcan
Stole three of my picks. Utter bastard.
But Leo's out to win the Champ title, so... watch out.
Akuki
Single Pick1- Dr. Doom Amalgam1- Nova (Frankie Raye)/Supergirl Amalgam2-Captain Britain/Lionheart
I'm a little bit speculative, because he drafted the version of Britain with the amulet... but, he's had some favored picks so far.
Pr1983
Single Pick1- Firestorm (current) Amalgam1- Red Tornado (JLA #12)/Steven Lang (Phalanx Infected) Amalgam2-Wonderwoman/Manchester Black
No f*cking idea where Paul is going with this, if his plan is centered around that first amalgamation... I'll pay attention when his matches are up.
Martian
Single Pick1- Nightshade Amalgam1- Mr Terrific 2/Sand Amalagam2-Forerunner/Supernova
Again, some nice picks so far... but we'll wait to see his team fleshed out. Martian's chosen picks he knows about, but are slightly obscure, so he probably won't have as much trouble as I'm anticipating Fox will with proof and whatnot.
