Dirk's too soft. He's the German version of Peja Stojacovic. The Warriors need a bootleg version of Amare Stoudemire. Jermaine Oneal would be perfect. If they had the money they should try to get Kevin Garnett (but that's pretty much out of the question). I think the moves they should make are Oneal and possibly Artest (Sac wants to move him). They should trade Foyle for Artest and sign Oneal as a free agent.

oh, and there are a lot of other scans that have NOT been shown yet . . . 😉
Turning off powers and one shotting Hercules should be an instant ban ... no idea why anyone would have given her the thumbs up.

Oh well I'll just make a notion in match to get her banned so Leo can only fight with two people 😖hifty:
good luck. i think i have every issue she has ever appeared in and again, goob long ago saw all her best showings.
as far as one-shotting herc: he was trapped and it was from behind. if he was similarly stuck and IM put one repulsor ray in each ear and opened fire he would ALSO be one-shotted. for that matter, if black knight pulled his sword and decapped a trapped hercules, he'd be killed as well. 😉
IM was ALSO attacked from behind and under attack from someone else as well.

2 full power repulsors in his ears wouldn't ko him? 😑
i know herc as well as anyone on this forum, and i can say with certainty that that attack WOULD ko him. he's been ko'd by hella less than that . . .
and scoob -- you're fishing for info but i'll accommodate you a little. she most certainly CANNOT cast spells from miles away and the key factor in both instances was prep -- neither herc nor IM were engaging her, both were effectively helpless/defenseless AND she was both given time AND free to cast her spells.
again, there are other characters in this tournament who could ohko or even KILL IM or herc if they were allowed a surprise attack from behind WITH PREP. some characters wouldn't even require ANY prep. for instance -- in the past herc has been ko'd by a tp assault and that has a much larger range of effect than spiral's spells.

He has ground pounded with Hulk. Yes I do doubt he would be KOed by IM 😐
It's my understanding that Spiral did at least some of that with prep (the power reversal thing like what happened to Rachel in the scans you guys have been posting is definitely something it took time to do). And it seems like her attacks are a lot of power misdirection/transfer, etc. Not a ton of raw power, just a tricky matchup for some.
I agree that those scans, regardless of context, are borderline and might warrant a ban for her. But I also think that things on both sides are being embellished, which makes it hard to determine whether or not she's allowed.
I've talked some with both goob and leo, and have seen the majority of what Spiral will be used for....those are, of course, high-end feats and the majority of her stuff isn't objectionable. So it's tricky. I won't openly recommend a ban, but I did talk to goob, saying that he'd better check things out for himself.
