whoops i uh. . . i cant edit since it's been more than 15 minutes. . . so uh. . . i guess i'll just go crawl in a cave somewhere and uh hope a bear eats me

Yes, you still get Mr. Kent, Quick Freeze.

No telepathy to the full extent. Mild suggestions and illusions are okay, but shutting down minds is a no-no. We want this to be fair and fun. Also, teleporters are fine, but no ejections from the arena. So far we have 3 players. I want a couple more at least, and if needed I shall draft a team myself just to flesh the tourny out.

crazyspinz, just in interest of mixing it up, and delving into the larger pot of lesser used characters, one female per team is required.

Also, unlike Evangel's, which was kick-ass, it isn't necessarily arche-type vs. arche-type. If you've got a fairly powerful that you know can take out an opponents herald/everyman for a specific reason, give an issue number and see if general voting conjecture lets your tactic pass. I.E. last tourny, I chose Songbird from Thunderbolts to specifically combat Sue Storm (it was seen in Thunderbolts #27, IIRC, that solid sound can phase through Sue's force fields) but Songbird was in a different power category and wasn't given the chance.

I implore people to delve into some more obscure/lesser used characters, we all know the outcome of Supes vs. Hulk or Batman vs. Spider-Man, but what about some of the lesser used characters that wouldn't cut the mustard given their own thread?

As for the triple posts Quick Freeze, that's okay, we were all bewildered newbies at some point 🙂

thanks but i didnt mean the new blue one. . . i dont care much for him. . . too power. i actally meant the classic red blue and yellow bird/plane in the sky superman. with all of the original powers except invulnerability. i dont want him to be invulnerable thats boring.

explain this to me...slowly...i ride the short bus

Is this only Marvel or DC? If not, I'd like Apollo (gotta love a man with Superman's powers who does not hesitate to kill the enemy) from Authority. If just Marvel/DC I'll take Sentry.

i´m not the one who is making the tournament but i bet its not only marvel/dc

Nevermind. I think I'll just go with Sentry.

Evangel's tournament had certain characters who weren't allowed, for instance Rogue for her life draining ability, and everything was allowed except anime and manga.

thanks but i didnt mean the new blue one

Whoa, where've you been Quick Freeze? You mean the electric blue Superman? That was over years ago. He's back to the good old pajamas and powers now.

Khellendros--Sentry has made very few apperances, most were done in Jae Lee's mosaic type style, so none of us are completely sure what he can do. I'll grant you Apollo, but no Sentry, you would just be unable to make an argument.

Thank you Krissy, yes, there are certain power types off limits. Rogue is off limits, unless you want to neuter her powers a bit. No anime and manga.

ok i think you are right, and like we all know surfer has too many vs threads in here. (and i already used him in evas tournament)

if you allow i can change to Martian Manhunter, i know its not obscure, but at least is lesser used.

That is fine.

i was thinking on making almost the same team that i had in eva´s since i won, but then i tough what the heck, lets have a new one, maybe i loose but at least it will be more fun.

Meh, I didn't think Sentry would be a problem since you used him as an example of what an everyman was. So, since Roguewas tossed out, I probably wouldn't be able to use Sauron (half pterodactyl man who absorbs life forces to survive) would I?

If no one is Hulk, Doom, Colossus or Abomination I'll be one of those.

no one pick any of thoses, but correct me if i´m wrong but isn´t doom and colossus on iron man level?

If you want to disregard the energy sucking powers, you can have Sauron, as he has other abilities too. Sorry that I used Sentry as an example, it just came to mind and I should have thought before doing it.

Those are all open, so you may choose any of them, Alpha Centauri. Doom would be on Iron Man level, as his usual physical abilities aren't in the Superman range. Colossus is in the 100 ton range, but doesn't have much beyond that, whereas people in the Supes category have super-speed, energy powers, etc. I would tend to put Colossus in the Iron Man level.

Can I get a roll call to see who's participating, and hopefully we can proceed?

I'm Hulk.

I'm also, in.

i´m in with:
Martian Manhunter

Alright, there seems to still be a bit of interest floating around. As people chime in to say they're taking part, you all may also draft the rest of your troops. If you have any questions, I'm sure you can find a way to ask.

cool, please tell me if i choose someone in the wrong area:

team:

- Martian Manhunter
- Nimrod
- Mr Sinister
- Superboy
- quicksilver
- Elektra
- Taskmaster
