Well Both sides did good but I'm gonna have to go with the Forces of Nature on this one I think the Morg arguements were great and overall they had the stronger characters sorry Leo/Khan my vote counts as 4 so you loose.
And some cake for the winners Batdude/Darkcrawler you earned it.

you suck
disgust

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! SSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😠

and i guess with 2 judges and the people poll 15-12 as of 12:23 est (damn that poll was close . . .) on our side that means we'll be seeing you and bw in the next round, newjak . . . 😈

I'd still like Val and Ill to give their opinion. 😬

I'm voting for the Cosmic Caballeros or should I say Silver Surfer and His Amazing Friends?

Seriously, even though I thought Green Lantern was grossly underused the entire time I have to give them to vote. For one, when Leo and Kahn said Surfer was the fastest person here and thus they pick who fights who, they were exactly right. Norrin's speed is going to be a huge asset throughout this thing and the Forces of Nature didn't have much to defend against it.

Another point I didn't like was Magneto's all encompassing shield. It was way too vague and even if it would have stopped Surfer's nova attack, I didn't really see the FoN try to defend against the acid bath transmutation trick. Either way, I wasn't convinced Eric could last too long at all against the most powerful herald of Galactus which was a hell of a long shot to begin with.

The second major point in the match up was Captain Atom's quantum jump weakness. The CC made a smart choice to shift the debate in that direction. Why? The debate focused so much on that aspect of Nathan's power, the FoN never really got the chance to flesh out any offensive strategy for him. What was he going to do to Maxima who Leo had psi-bolting him to death? Either he would quantum jump and return quickly if he was lucky (I dunno) or just be KO'd by a combo of that and her Superman-level punches.

As for Morg? Underused almost as badly as Hal Jordan. He's the most powerful member of the FoN and just like Atom, he didn't really have any offensive strategy. He could have taken it to Surfer or Hal but with Magneto already down, it was a numbers game. No way he beats two of the premier herald level characters out there by himself.

To sum up, it comes down to Surfer's speed controlling the initial activity of the match and the good offensive back up he received from Maxima.

Hell of a job done by DC and Batdude though. On paper, your team is probably on of the lower end of power in this tournament and you were matched up against easily the most stacked team here. The fact that I had a hard time reaching a decision says a lot.

Well if you look at only two things of ours got overturned.

One being SuperShaman at the begining and the other was me debating for the Constructs. So everything else legal and coming for you 😈

Thanks for your opinion Val. 😉

Outard + Val + the poll = Leo and Kahn win.

X and Ill can still offer their input if they'd like, but congrats to the Cosmic Cowboys (or whatever) and good luck in the next round (which will start a week from today).

Well, regardless of the fact that we lost, I hope Captain Atom gets more respect around here. 😉

oh, i don't doubt it. but . . . we have a little something cooked up special just for you too . . . 😈

oh, and val--hal was INTENTIONALLY under-used. we didn't really need him, and we didn't really want to show some of the stuff he was capable of . . . don't worry. he'll have a slightly larger role to play in the upcoming match . . .
