That's bullshit. He's basically a god-like being himself, who said that?

Actually, having not used a knee jerk reaction....
The Spot's powers.
I've always wanted them; the ultimate power under herald for me.
Team up with me and glory awaits!
Need someone killed? I port their head off.
Need transport? I'm there.
Need to BFR someone? I love that.
Need to hide from telepathy? Sure.

I'm assuming we also get our own intellects and personalities with these powers, correct?

Pretty sure most people just think he isn't above high herald.

I think the argument against Manhattan has always been that in implied power Manhattan's basically Solar, but in on-panel application he doesn't have the feats to beat someone like Silver Surfer or Superman because he never faced another superhuman being the lone superhuman in his entire universe. He can't really be argued because there's no way to accurately gauge where he'd stand in combat.

Well, based on implied power SS is basically Solar.

No one banned my Vandal Savage immortality. The other kind of immortality (and, admittedly, far weaker kind) was just a backup. So no one has taken me out yet, unless Blair rules against me.
Suck it, poozers.
Also, lol @ goob's stealth PM entry into the thread. Very creative.

You're not getting Manhattan, k? Play by the rules. Besides, it's a single power. You chose a character, not a power. In a ton of peoples' opinions, DM is nowhere near low herald, so I'm not sure where you're getting this. If you picked him in a low herald tourney, you'd be laughed out of the draft thread. But you're still violating the one power rule, so there's that.
Also, I'm not entirely sure that would work on Savage, though I'm not sure what his best regen feat is. But in no world is he > low herald, so I'm definitely within my rights unless Blair decides on a "no cheese" rule with these things.

Dunno, but it's irrelevant. He's immortal. Like, Mr. Immortal, Jack Harkness, can't-be-killed immortal. You can mindrape me and KO me for decades...I'll just outlast you.

Apocalypse is a pretty formidable street leveler, good choice.

What power would you get from Doctor light or Apocalypse? It's a single power not their entire powerset. Is Apocalypse a low Herald?

Carver, what are you talking about?
Light manipulation and the ability to control your own molecules.

Haha what?
1)It must be low herald or below (ie: no green lantern ring, no power cosmic, no reality warping, no time). Pick something interesting that doesn't make you god.

Anyone who literally can't die no matter what, can walk on stars, travel through time, become intangible, multiply, grow, control matter, is much higher than a low herald.
What mid herald can beat someone like that?
Hell, what high herald could beat someone like that?

Any high herald?
Almost all mid heralds?
Also, kindly **** off with your attempts at turning this into a Dr.M discussion.
