I gotta say though, I really like the Magneto/Captain Atom team.

Yes, DC and I liked that combo as well. 😄

Lemme just say that I think the Corps is being well represented so far, even without perennial tourney powerhouses like Scoob, Khell, and others.

And the fact that I stated that I would have probably picked Thor #1 overall obviously betrays some of my feelings toward whoever has him. Though 1 person can't make a team, so he's not everything...just a darn good start.

😉

...still, we'll see how the battles play out. Like Scoob said, a few match-ups are horrible for some and great for others, so depending on how the random draw plays out, it could change the dymnamics of round 1.

😖hifty:

Its ok Digi.....though I know my team doesnt seem as powerful as the others....Im confident.

SS/Hal is good
Thor on any team is goog
Mag/Cap is interesting.....not sure whats going on their
Quasar/Ronan solid team
Majestic/Black Adam....badass characters
Glads/MM....decent picks
Black Bolt is good
Kyle/Mogo 😖hifty:

fine Kyle/Shaman is........you'll find out 😈

Guess we will 😐

I hope its good.....

From Darkcrawler:

So, now that teams are complete, I did a little writeup what I think of them. 😄

The Uniqueness Rating tells how interesting the teams are to me. It doesn't tell anything about overall formitability.

1. Newjak/Blair Wind
G.L. Kyle Rayner (BW)
Shaman (Team)
Juggernaut (Newjak)

I'm liking the Lords of Chaos team. They sure have a nice stability with an powerful cosmic force, powerful magic, and sheer brute force and durability. Only thing that might be concerning is the Juggernaut's lacking ability to fly...when most teams have all their members in the air.

Team Uniqueness rating: 7.5/10

2. Leo/Kahn
Silver Surfer (Team)
G.L. Hal Jordan (Kahn)
Loki, dammit! (Leo)

The Plot Device😛 team is strong as ever, and they have even more plotdeviceness with the addition of plot device magic from Loki. All are powerful characters.

Team Uniqueness rating: 6.7/10

3. Batdude/DC
Magneto (Team)
Captain Atom (Batdude)
Morg (DC)

😈

Physics R You

Team Uniqueness rating: 9/10

4. AW/Accel
Quasar (AW)
Ronan the Accuser (Accel)
Hyperion (Supreme Power) (Team)

Cosmic Guy team is cool. Both Quasar and Ronan are very unique choices. Only time will tell how the relatively unexperienced Supreme Power Hyperion will do here against some more established characters.

Team Uniqueness rating: 9/10

5. GF/Psyquis
Cyborg Superman (GF)
Thor (Team)
Ray II (Psyquis)

Cyborg Superman was certainly someone I couldn't except, unlike Thor. Ray II seems interesting, it will be fun to watch how he is handled in Brute and the Beast team.

Team Uniqueness rating: 7.9/10

6. DL/Superherovandal
Gladiator (Team)
Martian Manhunter (SHV)
Orion (DL)

Martian Manhunter is a character I didn't think to be in tourney like this. But him combined with Orion and Gladiator is interesting, and this team clearly has lot of raw power, so maybe Martian Manhunter will compensate to that with his more exotic powers. Last of the Mohicans team will be followed by me.

Team Uniqueness rating: 6.9/10

7. Khell/KVD
Black Bolt (Team)
Beta Ray Bill (Khell)
Witchfire (KVD)

Silent Thunder is a solid, powerful team. Witchfire is character who I don't know nothing about, so it will be fun to see how he works with Beta Ray Bill and Black Bolt. And Black Bolt and BRB are also very nice characters.

Team Uniqueness rating: 8.2/10

8. AJ/Sam Z
Majestic (??)
Black Adam (??)
Supreme (??)

What Royal Rumblers lacks in something, it makes up with Superman type characters. Certainly an interesting choice to not have any cosmic characters, or magic besides of course Black Adam. Will be nice to watch. Haven't also seen a lot from Supreme.

Team Uniqueness rating: 7/10

now that everyone knows basically what the teams are gonna look like, whats the odds?

no one? Well fine Ill do it myself, in order (without numbers) of who I would want to face least as a competitor, and excluding myself and my team

Leo/Kahn
Khell
AW/GF/DCs teams
DL/SH
AJ/Sam

just the way I see if power wise....of course I did not take in creativity and use of said powers. (Khell/GF/AW can come up with creative wins with their characters) But raw power wise, thats the way I see it....

*None of the above statements take into account what I think of my team, or how I plan to beat them all 😄

I think a lot of people sort of see it like this....with your team mixed somewhere throughout depending on how much faith they have in Shaman.

But debating will play a huge part.

But I'd enjoy arguing for AJ's team. "We're going to punch you in the face wicked hard. Then do it again until you die. You lose." 😎

😂

I wonder if Khell's plans go any further than:

"BRB and Witchy fly away, Black Bolt screams, We win!"

why should they . . . ? 😕

Why not? I'd use that. 😄

😂

Two members of Alpha Flight in the tournament, with a possibility of a third. Who do I root for? 🙁
