The KMC Flavor-of-the-Week Thread

Well, I'm sure I'm not the only one who notices, mostly on the versus forums, the common trends that go in and out. Right now I'm noticing a lot of Despero, and the occaisional Illuminati, which is more attention then it normally gets. Probably due to the upcoming series and the newest group (which pwns all others 🙂 )

Of course, we get these things every now and then, and people pick up on it. Somebody comes up with a good idea, people want to try him out in different situations, or they smack their heads and think "Damn, why didnt I think of that?"

So, I made this little thread to talk about the most recent trends.

I wonder who's the biggest trend-setter?

Maybe Golem... but half the time I'm too lazy to click on all his links.

Personally, in my own little world, I like to think I set all the trends.

I'll just assume you all agree.

Despero will be on the way out though, I think, as the tourney moves along.

What's next?
Discuss. 😎

What's next?

The team of Impossible Man and Beak.

They'll be fighting everyone.

Despero's only the current flavor because we haven't had round 3 of the drafts yet. Some new controversial (or awesome) pick will take over next week.

Heck, I think leo's current Majestic vs. Thor thread is due to me talkin' up my boy (Majestic, our 2nd round pick) in a recent PM to him.

Thanos is definately flavor of the week. Seems like everyone is rabid to find someone to beat him, and people are pissed it's not Big Blue.

Despero might be the next one, and it was Flash when I got here.

You picked Majestic? Good pick! The guy's crazy powerful!

True enough.

People like Thanos, Flash, Wolverine, Batman, etc. are always common though. It's like the KMC Comics offical flavour.

EDIT: Hah! A 'Doomsday vs. Despero' thread was JUST created.

Funny thing is, sometimes it isn't even a flavor of the week. We'll see flavor of the days, flavor of the afternoon's, flavor of the hours. And later that same day? They'll be washed off the front page.

I was responsible for the slew of Iron Fist threads a while back - bumping older ones like crazy, just because I liked the character and hadn't seen a thread with him in a while.

😐

And Pheonix, Flash, and Wolverine seem to make the biggest appearences. Even guys like Superman, Spidey, and Bats have steady output, but never really become "flavors"

It usually happens when either a) someone makes a new respect thread which shows a lot of high-end showings, b) a new and relatively powerful character is introduced, c) a character has just had a very high showing, d) when a character gains an upgrade, or e) a combination of the above.

Yeah, but those don't sound as good as 'flavor of the week' 😛

Anyways, Despero has been around for a while, and garnered enough popularity to stick around, though probably until either Majestic takes over (which, judging by the most recent thread, seems likely), or until the new drafts for BD's tourney.

...speaking of Despero...

Thanks, Digi. 😉

I figured, we all notice the trends, and because their changing alot, hey, iit might even last. 🙂

To be fair though I think the Illuminati band wagon is justified as the comic does indeed rock ✅

Yeah. It's justified enough. But I doubt it will last that long. Perhaps raise the Illuminati's rep/popularity more, but soon enough there will be another trend.

BD's tourney's next draft is Thursday. I bet there arre a lot of good ideas for character picks floating around.

I'm detecting a more-then-usual amount of Apocalypse and Mr. Sinister attention.

And I'm predicting that, thanks to Evangel's latest battlescan thread, there are gonna be a new crop of War Hulk threads

What's up with the rising amount of Hulk fanboys?

Apoc is getting pretty popular.

yeah i agree with that! i have noticed the same myself

I've never understood how a character that sucked as much as Apocalypse could still manage to garner a loyal fanbase.

yeah, there are lots of characters like that! however i think apoc has potential to be a good character just bad writing imo
