How about teleportation... say... like Lila Cheney... she gets her field close enough to the opposing three and teleports the four of them, would that be a ring out for the other team seeng as Lila would still have her two teammates in the battlefield?

wasn't any sort of "instant death" thing banned?

i think being able to teleport oponents (especially parts of opponents) is too powerful for this type of thing

same with dimensions and what have you

Dizzle already mentioned teleportation as a ring-out tactic wouldn't be allowed. Not sure what the ruling is on it for other purposes though.

You mean like when blink can grab objects and teleport them away.....

I thought the teleporation mentioned before was regarding a situation in which a character is about to get beat up but then teleports as a defensive measure - which would be a ring out - better that they get wailed on and hope for help.

?

well, it'll be an instant win for team 1 if all characters from team 2 teleport away.

so, if a character from your team has the ability to remove other characters from the field of combat through dimensions or teleportation you are instantly winning.

might as well let people use Strange

umm... yeah... that's why i was pointing it out. Would a character like Lila Cheney be allowed, or anyone with similar powers, because it would imbalance the tourney if they were.

Teleporting over large distances is illegal. Guys like Nightcrawler should be fine, but even Blink is a little too much.

All right, now is the time for settling the final rules. So far, picks are limited absolutely to the following caps:

Strength: Thing
Killability: Thing
Energy Projection: Iron man
Speed: Mach 10
Telekinesis: ? (Phoenixless Jean Grey level, possibly?)
Regeneration: Deadpool (just above Wolverine)
Teleportation: Nightcrawler
Mind switching is banned.
Telepathy is banned.
Matter and reality manipulation are banned.
"One hit kill" abilities are banned.

If I'm missing anything, feel free to add to the list. Right now, the 17 tourney participants (16 plus alternate) should vote on
1) Number of draft picks: 3 or 4.
2) Non-Comic Characters: In or out. (or vote to allow certain outside mediums, but ban others)

1) 4
2) out, only other medium I can think of is anime and video games and there on different physics

im unfamilar with speed limits any character that fills the bill perfectly??
on the subject of teleportation....would people like nightcrawler be able to teleport people outside of the environment? cuz if someone was too powerful for there team would they be able to just teleport them out and then kill themselves to.......

1. 4
2. out

I would have to vote against teleporting people off the battlefield... in a scenario where it's Nightcrawler and Black Knight against Rhino, all NC had to do was teleport himself and Rhino off the battlefield for a double ring out then Black Knight's team wins. It's like, sic Nightcrawler on the opposing teams most powerful.

exactly what Im saying....

1) 4, just to conform... 3 would be cool also
2) out

im also in favor of a full ban on teleportation. Its already leading to confusion...

+ i think its application may make it too strong for the contest (they would have to not teleport in a "certain way" to continue to use the power)

1) either is fine

2) out... comic characters only.... it is the comic book versus forum we're having it in

for jean level tk do u mean psylocke?

1) I'd rather have just 3
2) out

EDIT: Also, does killability mean the same as durability? If not, what is the limit there?
