Batdude's Tourney Discussion Thread

Started by DigiMark007144 pages

Question:

Would you guys have b*tched if we picked Onslaught? Just the Magneto/Xavier incarnation.

Just curious. We were considering him at one point, and I don't think he ever came up in conversation.

...

And lol @ leo. He wins the tourney and still b*tches.

We were planning on picking him too... or that was just me joking about it...

Anyway, Batdude at the start of this thing, said he was acceptable.

Plus, all it takes is enough physical strength to put him down... and he wasn't above the limit.

Yeah. Initially he seems uber, but then you realize that he might have a few tangible weaknesses...

Still woulda been a solid choice, but we only mentioned him a few times....he never meshed well with us.

yeah, we were really considering him for a bit. I'm the one who kept asking batdude about it actually. I had it all set up so that if we picked him, we'd get access to all of his, Magneto's and Xavier's feats. But I realized that he'd be difficult to mesh, plus I didn't really want him as our "versatile" character, so I let it drop.

Alright, seriously, i just want to ask this, and if its legal, then so be it, but christ, it seems a bit much...

1. Alice using loki's (gaining them first of all, is that allowed) powers to grant each person telepathy, and then multiplying it by a factor of a thousand...

2. giving all-star superman durok's powers (I'm ok with that, i just want to be sure)

3: this...

again, just curious, if its legal then oki doki...

in short, the quantum weapons/boards, the upgrades of telepathy and strength, if they are all fair, then ok, but if not, and the combination does exceed the cap, then i'd like to know...

I'm not complaining or moaning, i just don't want us to be put at a disadvantage because we didn't know something about keeper or Alice (given their obscurity)

if its all legal, and I'm making something out of nothing, then i have no problem whatsoever, and i honestly don't believe blair and dc would intentionally try to go over the cap either, I'm in no way attacking them, ok guys? 😮

and guys, i know your posts are long, but honestly, i was expecting a little bit more in terms of substance, i mean, what you make into a paragraph, i've seen other people put in a sentence... 😛

Power meshing limit is Skyfather. None of our characters are even approaching it yet.

I really should get around doing that Odin Respect thread, but I'll tell you people what, I'll do a Zeus one. He's the weaker one, but he still has good feats, etc. beating Namor physically in two panels...

I'm surprised though, I thought your team would do more power-meshing too. 😉

Nevermind...

We never considered Onslaught. He would not have been a bad choice, with some buffs he would have been a powerhouse.

We were also considering Asgardian Destroyer...he KINDA was below caps (Durability was above Thanos, but so is Juggernaut's), but it would have been probably too hard to get him in. And he would have needed a living being to be alive. And he was a bit too limited as far as power-meshing went.

That's what I thought ... but I PMd Batdude about an idea Digi and I had and he shot it down by saying that it would be beyond Thanos.

😬

Well, Batdude has obviously made a mistake. He's said many times that the limit is Skyfather. On the boards and in numerous Pm's.

PM him again, don't give up if you have good idea. 😉

Well, he actually said below skyfather in the thread that was outlining the rules.

I'm not going to just go ahead with something I heard in a PM without it being said in this thread .... that way everyone is on an even footing to begin with.

Below Skyfather is still above Thanos.

Batdude needs to say which skyfather he means, though. Odin? Or Zeus. Those two, besides Mikaboshi are the only ones whose we can use calculating power levels, 99% of the Skyfathers only have like one panel of appearences.

And were you absolutely sure that your powermeshing thing was even above Thanos? I mean, you must have looked at it a lot...

I'm pretty sure it would have been above Thanos. (though still not Odin level)

Then it must be pretty damn good.

Anyway, been doing some Zeus reading. I'd say he's not that far from Odin level judging from the way he played with Thor while holding back, not even wanting to fight and overcoming Odin's enchantments in the hammer (grabbed it from the air and you either need to be not-living like Destroyer or have power equal/near to Odin).

I'll post some more soon...I don't really have the time to make full-fledged Respect Thread, but he is defenitely above Thanos.

You have no idea .... 😖hifty:

Still, if it is below a Skyfather, I think it should be allowed.

Meh ... I'll wait 'til Batdude sees this discussion and see if his opinion is open to change.

um, sol, why you are arguing on behalf of bw and dc . . .? 😕

if it makes you feel better pr, i've LOADS of questions about their prep. however, it is not my place to point out what may be holes or . . . stretches in their strategy. that's for you to decide, i'm afraid.

and is bats still actually running this thing . . .? 😕

its cool... i'm just curious is all, i don't mean to overstep any boundaries by it... i just want to be 100% sure what im up against...

Am I not allowed to have an opinion?

PR didn't seem to be directly addressing BW/DC, it seemed like he was asking in general whether what was going on was legal or not.

it was an open question... my knowledge, admittedly, of black alice and keeper is a tad limited, so people who'd know better than i would, would better be able to judge whether the characters are doing stuff they shouldnt be...

as judges, if you guys feel the need to respond, thats fine, honestly it is, i wasnt asking for hints or help, i just wanted to know whether certain things are legal, nothing more... 🙂
