Thanks demi, but this is really a vote for me, right?? I'm sure Scoob will protest unless it gets clarified.
I'd also like to point out that Scoob is beginning to resort to his character's name to try and win over voters. His NAME! If that doesn't reek of desperation, I don't know what does.
4-1 (or 3-1 if demi's vote is in question) in favor of me right now. Keep them coming voters!
You were here in May, CM, so you're cool. Your vote counts. Right now it's 4-3, I'm in the lead.
Since this page is devoid of any strategy so far, let me get the ball rolling again...I'll refrain from quoting Scoob and arguing back right now and will just summarize my points thus far.
I think Demi said it well when he wrote (and this is a paraphrase) "Thordon may have more potential power, but Kinky has more realized power." I would even refute the first half of that statement, but I heartily agree with the second part. My over-arching strategy is actually ridiculously simple. Slow him down with magical telepathy, then beat the holy hell out of him.
I'll start by reiterating that it took Thor centuries to master his powers (thanks to longpig for that tidbit), and with only a few hours prep, even someone who has seen Thor in action won't have mastery over his powers. And he won't have time to learn anything except "go fast" with the speed force (which would be an advantage, but I'll deal with that next paragraph).
Quasar has no control over magical influence. It will go directly to his mind...he has no defense against it. The best Mjolnir could hope to do is detect it, not stop it. And running around won't avoid telepathy. It will affect Thordon and slow him the heck down.
His Q-constructs will blast my magical shields, but my magic will rip into his constructs as well. In my sun-energy-emitting armor, Apollo has been charging for a long time now, and once the quantum-boost to Thor's strength is gone because of my magic, I'll be much stronger than Thor. I'll also be harder to take out because I'll have an extra layer of armor on, and my body is just as durable as Thor's to begin with (if not more) and the armor will only enhance that.
He'll be groggy from the telepathy, and my strength and durability will far exceed any slight advantage Quasar has in H2H combat. At this point it'll turn into a beatdown.
Scoobless has tried to 'avoid' the telepathy numerous ways. He can't.
He's tried to say he could drain me of my charge. He can't (First he'd have to get through all of my shielding and armor, and even then Loki can control his own internal molecules to an extent that it would make it too hard for Quasar to try and drain Apollo's body of its charge).
He's tried to play up his fighting skill. It's a valid point, but one that does little to make up for Thordon's other shortcomings.
That's the plan in a nutshell. There's little Thordon can do to reverse that many advantages.
I gonna go with Scoob.
reason I belivve it comes down to his speed. You have said so yourself Digi that you could only hamper him and in the end it will become a fist fight where Scoob's guy has a chance of landing 2 punches for your 1.
Also I believe that his Hammer idea works where he places the hammer on you and leaves it there. I belive he is fast enough and strong enough to knock you over from the begining and place the hammer on you. No matter how strong you get you'll never be able to lift that hammer so Scoob's guy can pick you off as he wants.
But as always it's not over I will change my vote if you convince me toherwise.
It's tied? Or does it mean I'm winning 4-3 because LP "re-took" his??
Anyway, the 2:1 hit ratio was a best case scenario for Thordon, and even then his quantum-strength-boost would be gone, and my strength and durability would be far beyond his. And all this is still assuming he'd retain a speed advantage after my telepathic influence, which is unlikely at best, and wrong at worst. A telepathically messed-up Quasar, who is already wielding Mjolnir with very little skill, won't be hurting me as much as my hits will hurt him. At that point, a hit or two should just knock Thor out...and even if it carries on, he has no real advantage to help him win out.
