Thanks for the vote of confidence. This is my first tournament, so I'd be happy to get through the first round. You've probably picked the winner (Khell), but you can't count out the others. Not by a long shot. Thanks again though, for the vote of confidence.
Morg is a ruthless herald that likes to use brute strength against his opponents. He has no experience wielding magically asgardian powers or experience using another body. Those are the consequences of your choices.
Many factors like this come into play. Strategy is the key.
k...here's an updated roster of people in the tourney. I'm back in it so I can't make "odds" because it might reveal who I think has better teams than others (there are some good ones). Technically, under my old system of "the later you enter the tourney, the smaller your chances are" I'm the biggest underdog in the whole thing. But we all know that's not the case...
Remember to vote once the tourney starts...but vote based on both how the contestants debate as well as the strength of their team, not just one or the other.
Feel free to remark on good/bad teams, good/bad picks, or liklihood of someone winning, but please refrain from talking individually on how the fights would play out. That's what the tourney is for...
you should put up a list of which mind/body etc... is used to control each character so that people get a better idea of what each amalgam would be capable of
Yeah...too lazy to do the mind/body stuff right now. I'll get to it soon though. This thread, at this point, is more to increase awareness for the tourney than anything, so that more people will vote.
And initially, I was going to have my Loki-run character just jump into the Destroyer (it can hold more than one person) and become the dominant persona (because Loki's controlled the Destroyer before), but if you had picked Thor like you did for round 3 that would've negated that strategy...it was a good strategy while it lasted though.
Teams...only one of the three in the amalgam can be the mind and/or body. Powers from all three are used, but the mind controlling them might not be completely used to the others' powers. For example, KVD has Manhunter and Mordred the Mystic. If Manhunter controls the mind, he'll be sweet with telepathy, but wouldn't be too proficient with Mordred's magic. It adds an extra layer of strategy to the tourney.
Here are the teams (each with a unique name)...
stormfront:
"Hurricane"
binary-powers
bloodstorm-powers/magic ability
zatanna-mind/powers
...apparently stormfront's character doesn't have a body...lol
Scoobless:
"Flash Thordon.....ah ahhhh....... Saviour of the Universe"
Thor: Body/Power/Hammer
Quasar: Quantum Bands/Mind
Flash: Powers
Sentry:
"Dr. Ray Vell"
Genis Vell - Nega Bands/Body
Doctor Druid - Mind/Magic/Telepathy
Beta Ray Bill - Asgardian Uru Hammer/Odin Enchantments
K Von Doom:
"Morgred the Martian"
Morg - body, powers, axe
Mordred - mind, magic, powers
Martian Manhunter - powers
....I would've done something with the name involving the 3 M's, but that's me...
DigiMark:
General Zod + "The Sun King" + Loki =
"General Kinky"
General Zod - powers/outer armor
Apollo - body/powers
Loki - mind/powers
Longpig:
no name yet...
Absorbing Man - Body , powers
Flash - Powers
Dr Strange -magical fighting ability mind and powers
...a few left to go, but that's gives a good impression of how it'll be run.
Popular opinion before the picks was that Khell and Scoob were the favorites. They have strong teams, no doubt, but honestly I'd wager that someone new will come out on top. Scoob and Khell will be walking targets, and no one's team matches up well against everybody else's team...they all have at least one or two weaknesses (mine included, even though I'm happy with my picks, though I wouldn't tell any of my weaknesses...hehe).
But again, remember to vote (intelligently, of course) once the tournament starts (which should be in the next few days).
Well, pretty much only people in the tourney have been posting here, but a bunch of people have "viewed" this (over 200), so hopefully "voter turnout" (I sound like a political analyst) will be high.
Didnt see this thread before so ill post my predictions that i posted in the main thread here:
Im going with some predictions in this Contest and it looks like Khellendros, Scoobless, Nataku, and Digi will be in the semifinals with Scoobless and Nataku advancing to the finals, but be careful with Sentry and K Von Doom their characters look like the Wildcards in this one... but im going with expierance in this contest cuz its gonna take alot of knowledge and stragedy to cut through the field thus the Last Man Standing after a hard long Final in my opinion will be Flash Thordon (Scoobless)... No offense to anyone else i think all teams look great and im sure all of you are knowlegable of your own characters, i mean you guys would crush me if i was in this, but im just giving my prediction.
