1. Our Opponents want you to believe they have this massive speed advantage, and again I point out this is false. The rules of the tourney specifically state that characters may only operate at speeds up to and under that of light. Considering two of their characters prior to the battle can operate at light speeds, the creation of the boards are utterly useless. Due to two of our characters(Atom, and Bill) being able to move at speeds near, at, or above light, we should be able to easily cope with their speed.
2. Our opponents initially planned to have their imitation Surfer give a portion of his power cosmic to Thor. However our team can counter this by reversing the energy polarities, we could reverse the cosmic energy that gave Thor his upgrade. This would only make Thor weaker and easy picking. I have posted this argument before, but instead of a counter argument I received a "BS" claim.
3. Juggernaut won't be removed from the battle field by any maneuvers our opponents plan to deploy. There most recent plan was to have Thor use his anti gravity attack on Cain rendering him helpless. However this won't work due to the mystical shield Cain possesses. For those who read X Men #12 Juggernauts first appearance, Juggernaut during this time was attempted to be removed from battle field via TK. Juggernaut than deployed his mystical shield and he simply stopped and walked on nothingness. The same technique can be easily accessed if needed in this battle.
4. Juggernaut is mobile enough to get a hold of Warlock, or Thor. All thats required is either have Warlock come to him(something our opponents stated they would do in their write up), have Juggernaut launched by one of our teammates, have Juggernaut put his leaping abilities to use, or have juggernaut teleported inside a shield with one of our opponents.
5. Our opponents would like for you to believe that the power cosmic can't be drained, however this is false. Recently In Annihilation a number of Galactus former heralds have been drained of that very power. Fallen One for example was just strait out sucked dry of his power by Tenebrous. Terax, Morg, and Air Walker have also been drained of their power. Thor is no reason why the same can't be done to this imitation Surfer.
6. My opponents have tried to come up with ways that Juggernaut can be dealt with, but all have been countered. They have no strategy concerning removing his helmet, thus the only logical way to go about it is by coming within Cain's reach. Once in his reach it's over. Cain has shown on a number of occasions that he is physically one of the most formidable characters in the Marvel Universe. Once he gets his hands on any one of their characters, it's lights out.
My opponents have tried saying that Warlock can teleport behind Cain, however the out come of this would be.
1. Fried, and then mauled by Cain. remember, Juggernauts armor is charged with billions upon billions of volts of electricity.
2. Is surprised he cannot touch Cain, and is grappled and mauled by Cain. Or he is left open from attack from Atom or Bill.
3. Removes the Helmet, and finds that beneath lies a ski mast made of the same properties, and is then mauled by Cain or again is left open for attack.
Either way, the outcome is the same. Warlock mauled, and more than likely left dead. If Warlock approaches Cain, like stated in your first post, he will be quickly dispatched.
7. Bill is skilled with Stormbreaker, period. Our opponents have tried discrediting this fact but they can't. I have provided scans of how Beat ray Bill wields stormbreaker with intelligence and skill.
8. I 've been wondering about a flaw in my opponents plan, however I haven't stated anything yet because I didn't want to limit their imagination. They plan on having Space Phantom become Norrin Radd, and that fine. However with this transformation how would one go about attaining Surfers power? As you know. The power cosmic isn't Surfers power, it's ultimately only an extension of Galactus power. In order for them to attain the power cosmic, they would essentially have to steal it from Galactus. The power cosmic is Galactus soul power and it can't be duplicated by beings such as Space Phantom, which is basically what our opponents are trying to do. In order for our opponents to attain the power cosmic it would have to be willingly given by Galactus however it's not. When they have Space Phantom transform into an imitation Surfer, he'll only be strong, durable, and shiny. This plan would be as useless as transforming into Rune King Thor, because although they would have his physical body they wouldn't attain the Odin Power.
For example, say someone tried duplicating Mjolnir. They would be successful in attaining the physical body, however they would retain none of it's magical properties or power due to it being enchanted by the Odin Power. In order to retain the power, the odin power would have to be duplicated which is impossible. This is the same situation our opponents will face, trying to turn into Surfer.
Their go's their plan out the door. This throws out the boards, Thor's upgrade, and any chance at victory for our opponents.
