"let me just up the gain on my power control -- and watch the energy crawl back over your cable till it reaches you!... bingo!"

then DH falls off the wall he was on (headfirst) and Spider-Man has to catch him before he hits the ground

Thunderball electrocutes him again a few pages later

From the way he acted the time a thug electrocuted him with a car battery, that sounds about right.

So, basically, one touch from a million volt coil/tentical=Dead KVD?

ummm how are you gonna get electrical volts past his bio shield and battle aura? 😕

hell the battle aura alone was able to deflect bisons electrical attacks.... 🤨

Adamantium barbed coils are good for piercing those, hell, the coils are manipulated like the tenticals. Since his bio shield is one sided, they'll dig in his back.

Not to mention that being battered so much by lasers and blasts and arms, those shields won't last.

isn't he blasting you from the get go how are you gonna survive that? 😕 you'll never get close enough to use them from the sounds of it...

anywho... darkhawk's bio shields covers up his entire body... classic darkhawk was a bit different...

Dodge and move using superior speed and manuverability. Easily.

The question you need to ask is, how is he going to survive my blasts?

Front or back or full shielded, adamantium coils goes through quite easily.

Hulk's skin>Darkhawk's sheild Hulk's skin>Ryu's aura.

Plus my damage soak is much higher than KVD's due to my heavy duty armor and near imminuty to energy attacks.

Although I can't dodge everything, but the two shields are there for that.

It's come down to all I really need is one hit, and due to all my advantages, it'll be very easy to get.

I vote Shocktopus! droolio

You only voted voted for Shocktopus because of his abnormally long and numerous appendages.... droolio

it doesn't seem to me that either of you would be able to dodge or outmaneavure the other in this environment... it DOES however seem that you are both capable of navigation of some sort...

however if your strategy relies on gettin him with your .......appendages 😘.... or dodging then you're proving him right about what he said earlier.. I read through all your posts thus far, and it seems like you want to change your strategy from what it originally was....

I'm still not buying that you're simply going to soak up what those blasts are gonna do to you... your boy isn't about to "absorb" a cyclops blast... and that's basically what you're looking at here.....

long pig all the way

My original strategy changed because Digi didn't tell me I couldn't magnetize the boxes until page 6 or so.

Vibranium is able to magnetized as seen against USAgent, but Digi said no, so I changed.

And no, I don't intend on absorbing the full effect, because the full effect of the blast would never get to me. I was just pointing out that energy attacks aren't the way to put an energy absorber/controller down.

Basically saying I have four levels of resistance against his blasts. 2 shields armor and resistant body.

My strategy relies on the fact I have the obvious overall advantages. His blasts only just slightly, if any edge out my combined 4 lasers and electric attacks and the fact that my coils are so long and unbreakable, they will get through and get in. And that's really all I need to get him to slow down, and lose control. If one shock can do good damage, a prolonged one followed by a decapitation must work.

It's just way way way too obvious that I would be the likely majority winner out of 10.

see i'm still not sure about that.... DH's chest beams don't really need to be aimed... so even if he's spinning out of control he can still hit you half of the time (when he's facing toward you) and i don't reacall ever seeing Electro absorb an energy attack that wasn't just electricity

Well, it seems Scoob provided a better explanation than me about what happens in ASM 358. But yeah, Thunderball electrocutes him through his hook line. Anyway, LP asked about a different form of levitation...but just decide for yourselves. The vibranium will absorb whatever energy it comes into contact with, but that's all I'll say.

I don't know for sure, but it feels like LP's winning from the votes I've seen. Anyone want to do a vote count for me, since I'm lazy and I've found others will do that which is technically my job to do?? Hehe...

Wow, I really ****ed up everyone's mind by saying the word "absorb".

No, Electro isn't going to absorb the full blast. He WILL absorb some properties of the blast such as heat or anything else that goes with what electricity puts off.

Any of the blast's effects that are similar to electricity won't work,(because I am immune to the effects of electricity) basically stripping away most of the true power of his once lethal blast into nothing more than a concussive force blast or something close to it.

But, since the concussive part has been slowed by TWO shields already, there will be hardly ANYTHING left. Like getting punched by spiderman. Which can also be blocked by my adamantium sheaths...(friggin forgot about them! 😮 )

Also, let's not forget the Ock arms make great blockers themselves, I have enough to be able to afford to lose one or two if my shields seem damaged or if I just see a good opening and need to take advantage of it. I can sacrifice arms.

All I need is a few good blasts from the lasers, a few blasts from electro and the coils go to work and unload all 1million volts and battered by super strong titanium tentacles. If he's conscious afterwards or not, he's getting cut in half.

^^^^
That's all just hypothetical, since IMHO KVD will honestly never get a truely lethal/incapacitating attack off on me.

Also, the sheaths, for ****'s sake I forgot about them, they are adamantium and very wide, they can be successfully used as a shield against projectile attacks.

If Shocktopus puts his arms together(like in a fighting irish stance), it makes something around a two or three foot wide adamantium shield to protect my more vidal areas like the face all the way down to my abdomen. With my superior reactions and speed, this will be very useful. He never actually did that in his 3-4 appearances, but I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work.

They're pretty wide, very useful. Maybe even use 'em like Wonder Woman. 😱 Nah, that's crap.

I still vote piggy with all due respect KVD

Cool pic...

I vote for long pig.

Match Closed. Good job both of you. I have to leave this pinned until I can count the votes, but I'm pretty sure LP won.

I counted 7-3 in LP's favor. Congrats.
