General Tourney Discussion

It's like, sic Nightcrawler on the opposing teams most powerful.

My rationale is that Nightcrawler maxes his teleportation at 2 miles, give or take. If battlefields are smaller than that, (with walls, or something) I'll just make them block teleporters too. In a cage match type of settings, teleporters can't leave the arena. In more open ended places, 2 miles won't be a really insurmountable distance. Any flyers could cover that within a minute, grounded characters would take just a bit longer... Just being 2 miles away wouldn't really constitue a ring out, since Thing will probably be able to throw some people that far. If most are in favor of banning teleportation completely, it'll be banned. I just didn't think it'd be much of a problem.

For the speed cap, I was thinking of Quicksilver...

i still have to say no to TP

Gah, didn't think of the 'kamikaze' approach. He won't get far enough away, but if he teleports inside of something... No fun at all. For right now, I'mma say that most teleporters can potentially (and fairly easily) break the OHKO rule. BANNED!!!

And for anyone living east of Greenland, drafts have been pushed back till next Wednesday. 🙂

(just kidding Scoob)

Dizzle, did you see my question on the last page about Killability?

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

killability is more of a general term. It refers to characters that require special means by which to incapacitate them.

Lobo, needs to have his molecules destroyed
Iceman, can live without a body

durability is definatly a factor of killability, but not the only one

um last he said, it should be about the same as things, like say iceman cant be allowed because his durabily is much lower but his killability is much higher....

I'd prefer no TP...or TK.

Oh, sorry, no I didn't.

Killability is basically durability, but a step further. If an attack can kill Thing, it should be able to kill whoever you pick as well. I changed it from durability when someone questioned about Iceman's whole consciousness transferring thing. His body would get destroyed, but he himself can survive a blast that would also demolish Ben Grimm. Ben is more durable, but Iceman is less killable.

EDIT: Dammit, I was beaten to it.

Oh, and drafts are open, not closed, because Digi says it's a complete pain in the arse, and I really don't think it has really huge benefits. Plus discussion is easier this way, because no one will really try to be secretive about their picks...

Ok, LP has voted for no TK. Votes for or against, add it as #3. (TP is banned already)

i'm against TK as well

I vote for tk....

Drafts are open?

open not secret, not that there open yet

^ What he said. You just post who you pick in the thread, rather than PMing me your choices and having me announce everyone. They'll start on Sunday.
