Battle #1

So, um, Woo! Or something... 😕

Anyway, here's the rules.

1. Prep = 15 minutes, in a neutral environment apart from the battlefield.

2. The only thing combatants can have "operational" coming into the fight is generic shielding. Thus, an offensive or other maneuver must begin after the fight has started. No creating 10,000 illusions/constructs/etc. during prep or anything like that.

3. If you don't know the rules, read them! The first person to make 7 battle-related posts on Day 1, then complain to me will be flogged....or at least get a PM from me with a " 😐 " smilie and a link to the rules. They've been established for weeks. And that thread has been pinned for the past week. There's no excuse for not knowing them.

4. Observers are asked to NOT post in this thread unless it is a question directly related to the battle.

5. Keep anything extraneous in the discussion thread. Please help me keep this battle as efficient as possible.

6. Judges: wait a while to vote. And post your vote, possibly with a (brief) explanation. Don't vote in the poll Observers: Feel free to vote in the poll, but I'd encourage you to wait as well.

7. Help me out with all of this. If something needs edited out, let me know...I can't catch everything.

...as no one has PM'd me with a pre-battle write-up, each participant will be limited to 9 posts.

....now...

Devil Lance / Superherovandal VS. Adam Warlock / Accel

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

AW/Accel
Quasar (AW)
Ronan the Accuser (Accel)
King Hyperion

Judges: Scoobless, Validus, LethalFemme, King Mungi

Battle Location: An abandoned Tokyo

Fight will last a week. Good luck to all.

*first post*

I'm goneofftobed

A quick note:

Given the nature of the combatants, even a city as large as Tokyo might not reasonably contain the fight. It might be difficult to leave in the midst of battle, but it should be assumed that fight starts in Tokyo (or wherever it may be in future rounds)...and could presumably spread out from there.

digi i read all the rules and i understand it but it still confuses me - justa lil bit

are they supposed to right
accel - quasar punches gladiator or something lik that until the judges decide that this certain thing should finish the fight
or is it something completely different - 2guns

Just watch. The battles will be slower-paced than normal because of the post limit, but you'll see as it unfolds.

ok

Ok...

15 minutes of prep:

I will form a full body of Quantum armors for Quasar, Ronan and King Hyperion just like this one:

Quasar will be nearly covered from head to toe by his armor. So will Hyperion. Hyperion's armor will have a small slit to where he can see and fire off his Flash Vision.

Quasar will also form a sword and shield construct for Hyperion that he can use against Orion.

Remember it only takes seconds for Quasar to make powerful constructs. But here has minutes to create them. They will be very strong.

As for Quasar, he will handle Gladiator.

I can't speak for Ronan, but Accel will be coming on later today to address his prep time and his strategy. He will be using Ronan to battle the Manhunter.

For now this will have to do:

Accel wrote on Jul 2nd, 2006 08:31 AM:
With prep, Ronan can analyze his opponent's powers and enhance himself to adapt to those powers. He should be able to analyze MM's telepathic abilities and enhance himself to at least be resistant to it. He can also create a barrier of absolute zero around MM that would probably contain him long enough for a fire attack, but I'm not sure if phasing would be useful or not to escape from the barrier.

Ronan can also transmute matter and create an indestructible cone around his victim, which would be useful against someone like Gladiator or Orion.

That's a slight description of his powers and what he would be able to do.

As for our battle plan:

Quasar VS. The Gladiator

King Hyperion VS. Orion

Ronan The Accuser VS. Martian Manhunter

After prep is done, and the battle starts, Quasar will immediately go after Gladiator while Hyperion and Ronan go after their respective targets.

Quasar will try to encase Gladiator into a bubble like this:

He will be stuck there for a short while. Quasar knows Gladiator and he knows how powerful he is. Quasar will quickly encase him in a bubble like he did to Binary, then form a second bubble, taking more time to concentrate and make his bubble construct even more powerful. By the time Glads breaks the first bubble, he will have to deal the second. By that time Quasar will be long gone. He will be aiding Hyperion to quickly dispose of Orion.

This version of Hyperion is very powerful and was strong enough to battle two alternate reality Hyperion's at the same time. Hyperion will be deflecting any blasts coming from Orion's Astroharness with his own Quantum shield while firing off his Flash Vision targeting Orion and his Astroharness. At the same time, Quasar will try to catch Orion with powerful energy blasts on his blindside since he will be to busy concentrating on battling Hyperion. If Hyperion can get close enough to Orion, he can deal the final blow with his Quantum sword Quasar has constructed for him during the prep time. Orion will fall.

Once Orion is incapacitated, They will both turn their attention to Gladiator. Again the number game will be a deciding factor. Gladiator will have a tough time battling either of these one on one. He gets killed here fairly quickly by both Quasar and Hyperion.

As for Martian Manhunter, I'll leave him to Accel. He'll be on later today.

I guess I have 8 posts left. That's all right. I won't be needing 8 posts to deal with these chumps. 😆

That's it for now. I'll post more later in the day if DL and SPH have the guts to even show up.

Go warlock , the Magiks have your back !

now THAT'S what i'm talking about . . .

(runs and hides before digi gives him crap for an irrelevent post . . .)

Magiks Magiks MAGIKS

Guys, seriously...root for the teams in the discussion thread. It's stuff like this that will turn a 3 page battle into a 20 page thread.

😬

Since DL and SPH aren't posting anything, I'm gonna post once more just clarify my victory over Glads and Orion.

Quasar VS. Gladiator:

As you know, Quasar can easily form constructs. If DL and SPH are gonna argue that Gladiator will be strong enough to break the bubble, they'll have to think again. See how powerful the bubble is:

and here:

Remember from my first post, Quasar will seal Gladiator in two bubbles. Giving him enough time to help Hyperion out with Orion. With nowhere to go, Glads will keep pounding on Quasar's constructs trying to get out. He will probably break the first bubble, but the second bubble will be far more durable. He'll watch his comrades fall in battle. His confidence will fall along with his powers. He'll be stuck there until Quasar let's him out after they've taken care of his teammates. They'll save Glads for last.

Quasar & King Hyperion VS. Orion:

Orion is pretty much screwed here. He'd have a tough time fighting either of these guys one on one, but two of them together? Man... He's gonna get owned oh so hard.

Let me divulge some feats on this version of Hyperion.

Owning Vision:

http://img57.imageshack.us/my.php?image=exilesv103819rougher4hr.jpg

Killing the God Wolverine with his Flash Vision:

http://img50.imageshack.us/my.php?image=exiles39197xv.jpg

A blast from the Flash Vision would certainly hurt Orion. Possibly mortally wounding him.

This version of Hyperion is also well versed in combat. Here he is getting the better of two Hyperion's at the same time:

http://img148.imageshack.us/my.php?image=exiles0652005puardcp158tv.jpg

That's Hyperion taking on two Superman level characters at once. If I recall Superman has taken on and beaten Orion before right? This version of Hyperion is like a sadistic bloodlusted version of Superman.

Quasar will distract Orion by raining down energy blasts on Orion. Oh wait... how will he hit Orion if he's flying around real fast and all!?

Well Quasar can lock onto his energy signature. Quasar can track all types of energy signatures with his Quantum Bands. And what do you know... Orion wielding the Astroforce is bad. Orion is basically flying around with a nice bullseye on his back. While Hyperion's chasing Orion around, Quasar will lock onto Orion via his Quantum Bands like so:

Knock Orion to the ground the very same way Surfer did here:

Only thing he'll be getting leveled by pure Quantum Energy. While Orion is on the ground, Hyperion will finish him off and run his Quantum sword through Orion's heart as well as lop off his head just in case.

Even if Orion gets wind of Quasar trying to sneak up on him and tries blasting him, Quasar could possibly use Orion's own energy blast against him. Quasar did it to Surfer and was tapping his source of power, the power cosmic when they battled. Who's to say Quasar can't do the same to Orion?

See:

Man...

Now that Orion's dead, Hyperion and Quasar will help Ronan out with Martian Manhunter. 3 on 1... Doesn't seem like MM has a very good chance here. Oh wait... MM can become intangible!!! Well Hyperion was able to move Kitty while she was intangible here:

http://img80.imageshack.us/my.php?image=exilesv103816rougher8kn.jpg

Who's to say MM can't be grabbed by Hyperion when he's intangible?

Man.. I'm not gonna kill off MM. I was just planting a what if into your minds. I'm sure Accel and Ronan could find a way to deal with MM.

Man... DL... SPH... You guys are gonna get owned oh so hard. I can't wait till you guys try and counter this stuff. I have a bunch more waiting for you two.

So, it appears Warlock and Accel come out to a COMMANDING lead here to start off the battle.

Once again if your not in the battle, don't post unless it's important.

And definitely don't post scans

First MM will with the 15 mins of prep unite his team telepathically(which will allow him to keep Gladiator at full confidence and Orion not completely out of control) and then he will absorb several hundred tons of matter from Tokyo and turn invisible and intangible.
http://img207.imageshack.us/my.php?image=japan59bu1ok.jpg
Then he'll attack Ronan (invisible and intangible) first he'll telepathically assault his mind and whilst he's being assaulted he'll use his intangibililty to screw with Ronan's neural system and also smash him with the acquired mass and use martian vision on him. Gladiator will evade Quasar with his speed and Orion will go after Quasar instead. Gladiator would due to the telepathy of MM be at full strength and pummel at King Hyperion with his full strength and his "heat vision" and using his superior speed to keep Hyperion from hitting him. and since MM can make himself have more arms and stuff he'll also be smashing on Hyperion with Gladiator in a addition to assaulting Ronan.
http://img95.imageshack.us/my.php?image=jla81eu2sy.jpg

Oh and MM can also use his telepathy on Quasar and make it incredibly hard for him to muster a thought allowing him to make constructs and he'd be able to use more of his invisble and intangible arms to screw with his neural system as well this would make it hell for Quasar's mind.

Glads full confidence still wouldn't be enough. Again Glads alone will not be powerful enough to break the bubble. He will break the first one. But like I said in my first post, Quasar will form a second bubble around him. When he does break the first one, he'll have a hell of a time breaking out of the second one. And as he watches his comrades fall one by one, even with telepathic help from MM, his confidence will plummet. So will his powers.

Strong bubbles:

Branhole posted a scan up there of Thanos breaking the Quasar's bubble.

I can tell you one thing, Gladiator sure ain't Thaons.

I want to battle you with Ronan, but I have to leave that to Accel. All I will say is Ronan can adapt in almost any situation and to almost anyone's powers. 🙂 Okay I won't say anymore bout Ronan. :

Again Accel will be debating for Ronan. But I can speak about Orion. Again, Quasar VS. Orion bad idea. Orion very powerful. Wields the Astroforce... Ooooohhhh... Scary.... His Astroforce will be so powerful, his energy signature will make him easy to track by Quasar, and Quasar will put him down fast. Just like this Watcher:

Orion ain't no Watcher. 😛

Even if Gladiator tries to evade Quasar, Orion will be already dead or incapacitated due to Quasar. Hyperion will see Quasar battling Orion. Hyperion will be all over Gladiator if he tries to blindside Quasar. Gladiator had a tough fight with the Squadron Supreme version of Hyperion. This version of Hyperion is stronger, faster, and more sadistic. Not to mention He's also wearing Quantum armor and wielding a Quantum Sword and a Quantum Shield. The Quantum Armor provides extra durability. Keep in mind, everyone on my team is wearing the Quantum Armor. Hyperion will cut Gladiator down. Hell, even if Quasar gets blindsided by a punch, what's that gonna do? His armor will protect him from physical harm. All it will do is knock him back.

Hyperion is fast as you can see here:

http://img148.imageshack.us/my.php?image=exiles0652005puardcp173qd.jpg

Doing what Superman did to Doomsday shows how fast Hyperion is. The Squadron Supreme version of Hyperion kept up with Glads in a battle, this Hyperion is no different. Except this version of Hyperion is stronger, better, and has more of a mean streak if you know what I mean. He'll be able to keep up with Glads no problem. All of those extra appendages would be lopped off by Hyperion. A dose of Flash Vision, MM will be reliving his fire fear, because he will be set a blaze after getting hit with it. Actually, it'll probably blow a hole through him or melt through his skin.

Ok... MM will be assaulting Hyperion and Ronan... You seem to have forgotten about Quasar. With Orion out of the picture, Quasar could choose to help Ronan battle MM for a while and help Ronan gangbang MM. Or he could help Hyperion easily dispatch Gladiator. Pick a scenario. Your characters are dead in either one.

I'll pick both and give you options on how your characters will meet their end🙂

If Quasar helps Ronan and battles MM. MM will find himself in a heap of trouble fast. While MM is occupied by Ronan, Quasar could encase MM in a powerful bubble, and fly MM into the sun himself. Man... If MM didn't like fire before, he sure ain't gonna love it now. The sun will kill MM. But not Quasar.

See:

Quasar flew into the sun saving Binary. He could easily do the same to MM while he's encased in a construct.

Now... If Quasar went onto help Hyperion instead, Glads would be in big trouble. If Gladiator was somehow able to avoid Quasar, he wouldn't be able to avoid Hyperion and Quasar at the same time. Quasar will catch Glads in restraints like this:

http://img234.imageshack.us/img234/676/gladq3kd8qp.png

Giving Hyperion a second or two to shove his Quantum sword through Gladiator's heart. Also lopping off his head just in case. Sure Glads broke those restraints, but you also see how vulnerable he was. Now imagine Hyperion with a Quantum Sword impaling Glads in the picture link above.

Yep, good old telepathy... Too bad normal telepathy doesn't work on Quasar.

If it was magical telepathy, that would be another story. But normal telepathy doesn't seem to work well against him. Quasar could make constructs in his sleep. MM's telepathy will have no affect whatsoever on Quasar.

Okay first off I don't think the teams know who they will be facing so Ronan udoesn't know that Martian Manhunter is a telpath sop he can't adapt to that power.
S
Now on to the battle
You say Quasars shields will hold Gladiator long enough to for Quasar
to get away .
I don't think so first of my team is near eachother when the fights startrs so Gladiator will not have a long way to go once he breaks out.
secondly as shown here ir doesn't tsake Gladiator very long to break out of Quasars constructs.
http://img234.imageshack.us/img234/676/gladq3kd8qp.png
and the construct will be even weaker once Quasar diverts his attention to helping Hyerion.
and with Gladiators speed , he will find Quasar and hyperion in moments due to his vision and speed and tehn it wil be 2 on 2 .
No on to the Hyperion Orion fight
Wile Hyperions Vision might be very powerful it going to do nothing against Orions magsnetic powers which giove him the ability to make shields
http://img19.photobucket.com/albums/v58/Desaad/jkfw-17-10.jpg
and redirect Hyprions attack as he does here against Darkseid
http://img389.imageshack.us/my.php?image=oriondarkseid196lg.jpg
now with the reflected heat vision and the astor blast his shields will surely take out his shields leaving him to get hit with contous full power astro force blasts which will knock him out.
and by the time Quasar gets there Hyperion will allready be down leaving him to deal with Orion and the fastly approaching Gladiator who will be where quasar and Orion at in mere moments.

Now Oripon can do one of two things blast Quasar with the astor force an dhope it hits him or magnetically hold him in place by using the metal in Quasars bands .
as he did to this metal creature
http://img19.photobucket.com/albums/v58/Desaad/Orion09p16.jpg

now with quasar held down and not able to move Orion can obliterate quasar with an astro force blast .
and then after Gladiator finds Orion they can go help MM fight Ronan The accusser tif he hasn't taken him out yeet.
and after that shv team and mine are the victors.

Just to re-iliterate.
