Saying that there's only four legit title contenders is selling people short, and to be honest is kind of an ass thing to do, Digi. 😬 I honestly wouldn't expect that from you.
😕
Since you mentioned hoensty a few times, I'd just say that I was being honest.
It's not personal attacks on any of the people in the tourney, all of whom I have great respect for. I was just stating my opinion.
But thanks for taking my assessment of the tourney and trying to make more out of it than it needed to be.
😐
*shuts up and waits for the battles*
😬
wish i had more comic knowledge, but unfortunately I don't know much about most of these teams so can't really comment much and please take my opinion with a grain of salt.
CW and DC team have the most powerful team imo
All Star Superman is the most powerful superman class character, by far.
Keeper is Surfer on roids, basically the most powerful energy and overall guy in the tourney.
don't know anything about Black Alice.
random thoughts:
Juggernaut seems like a poor choice. Aside from durability, he offers nothing. He will lose for his team.
Roldz/Nino team seems like a poor man's version of BW and DC team and will not win.
PR/Remac: team is also poor man's version of BW and DC team and will not win.
Yeah I'll agree with Digi some teams are royally screwed in some cases just because the picks they have seem to be weaker versions of others while some teams managed to grab on the tops of each versions on the same team.
Anyways debating will still carry this tournament because there are still alot of incredibly close teams or just teams that match better against others.
On Paper yeah BW has the best team on paper though a lot of things change when strategies are thrown in.
Random thoughts on different things.
Juggernaut while one dimensional as he is when paired with the right people would be a hard person for any single one team to put down by himself.
With so many teams having property and power stealer's anything and everything is still way up for grabs. This could end up being the Duplicate scenario from the Iron Man tourny all over.
With the loads of prep given to the teams a lot of interesting combos can come up so maybe picking the most raw powered team could be a drawback if they don't mesh well.

sorry, did I hurt your feelings? anyways, I acknowledged my lack of comic expertise, but it doesn't take an expert to see that your team stands virtually no chance of winning.
Let's do a superficial comparison of BW's team against yours.
All Star Superman is >>>>> Superman. Anything Superman can do, All Star can do better.
Keeper is greater than Silver Surfer, who GL Hal is more on par with.
Vulcan is not very impressive from the little I know, and Black Alice is a powerful magical being against whom you have no defense against.
Perhaps you can take a win against the Juggernaut squad, but please don't have any delusions of winning this tourney.
I give my opinions straight out and hard, sparing no feelings 🙂

Their team also has the Keeper, so that weakness is pretty much nullified.
However, I've never followed a competition so this will be my first time, and perhaps people with good strategies might be able to beat more powerful teams.
Also, I will be rooting for your team as you are big underdogs 🙂

i disagree, but suit yourself i guess...

what do you disagree about? that you are underdogs?you have 2 characters that are basically weaker, less powerful versions of guys on another team (with possibly some minor exceptions in some aspects)
as scoob said, there is very little to prove that all star superman is that much more powerful than the current superman (given that all star supes is basically an elseworlds superman, albeit a very cool one), and everyone on this forum knows what superman is capable of...
we have hal jordan, generally considered to be the single greatest green lantern...
and we have vulcan, who alot of people underestimate, but this guy tangled with the imperial guard of the shiar, killing several of them by himself... you don't just do that...
if our team is considered underdogs, i'd say its more to do with our lack of tournament experience, but if you choose to underestimate our characters, do so at your own peril imo...
