Batdude's tourney odds thread

Yeah, BW is really creative. I have barely thought up any ideas myself that are as good as his.

I'm more in charge of the scan department. 😛

Scoob thought up a few more characters than I did but we both contributed plenty. We had our share of weird (possibly clever) ideas, but a lot of it was just going through every possible character for each round from any company or comic and narrowing it down through a process of elimination.

It's always amusing have backup plans to the backup plan....and half the challenge is deciding which "plan" to choose, since we could have taken teh draft multiple ways (and still can, to an extent, in the next 2 rounds).

But I'm usually less about the weird plans and gimicks, so I have a lot of respect for Blair, because it takes guts to draft, say, Shaman (or Black Alice) without a proven track record for that character on the forums.

And respect threads are a life-saver. We were able to dig up a decent amount on our own, but without KMC's respect pantheon this tourney would be a lot different.

Interesting to read what everyone thinks of each other, its not something that seriously gets talked about much on the forum, those 'who is your' threads are complete cack imo...

lol... i wonder will peoples opinions of each other become more... whats the word... negative... once the tourney begins... one controversial decision and its world war III... 😛

:lol

Most are forgiven eventually. For example, I hope Blair wouldn't hold my banning the dupes in the last tourney against me.

But yeah, it gets messy sometimes. 😉

Nope, I'm good. Only grudge I have ever held was being called a "kryptonite dildo" 😐

You haven't seen the icing on the cake my friend 😈

Anyways, anyone have any favorites based soley on draft 1? (debating skill is what I put my odds on, but who you have as a character always helps)

BW / DC - Black Alice - 1st
Baldey / DevilLance - Quasar - 2nd
trolly / King Kandy - Fallen One - 3rd
Roldz/Nino - Superman Blue - 4th
captian / MartianMind - Captain Atom - 5th
Digi / Scoob - Adam Warlock - 6th
PR/Rewmac-Iceman - 7th
Bran / Darthgoober - ??? 8th

i think baldey and devilLance made a a very shrewd choice in quasar, their other choices are going to be of great interest to me...

Besides my own team? 🙂

I would concur with pr actually. Quasar is as solid a choice as you'll find in round 1. Scoob and I didn't want to use the high pick we'd need to get him, so we waited, but it's obviously a solid pick.

To me, Iceman and Fallen One seem the only questionable picks, but I'll have to wait to see how you guys use them. Otherwise, I don't think anyone has seperated themselves yet.

I can't believe we never even considered drafting Iceman ... I mean c'mon .... he can, y'know .... make stuff cold ....... and stuff......

He's a powerhouse, as has been evidenced on KMC time and time again.

But honestly? Too many Green Lantern/Silver Surfer types gonna be in this tournament to make me too confident in Iceman's ability to compete.

Also, too many people that can react in nanoseconds, where as Bobby still thinks as slowly as a human.

Not to mention - where does the actual COMBAT take place? All these herald levellers would indicate some sort of space scenario, where Iceman is next to useless...

No clue. You'd have to talk to batdude.

so, we have had a few contestant changes and draft number two is up and running. Thought I'd bump this

I think this is the new list...includes two of the second round choices.

BW / DC - Black Alice
Lucid Lui / DevilLance - Quasar
trolly / King Kandy - Fallen One
Roldz/Nino - Superman Blue
Souja/ MartianMind - Dr Light
Digi / Scoob - Adam Warlock
PR/Rewmac-Vulcan(Darwin) (Superman the current/post crisis/non-energy version)
Bran / Darthgoober - Earth X Absorbing Man Despero

BW and DC, and Digi and Scoob probably have the best odds...

Don't worry ... we'll change all that with a crappy pick in round 2.

😐

Bran and Goober are playing with a loaded deck there.

I agree.....though I dont remember absorbing man ever being finally cleared 😬

....or vulcan. What powers?
