Tournament Odds

And we're splitting hairs. The Death's Head I fight was cool but doesn't really put him over any caps (much as I love DHI as well).

But yeah, he's a beast. And as I see it, whoever has him did a nice job of managing their draft well within the tourney's parameters (provided they use him well).

I don't have his apperance when he battled the Fantastic Four in #2 of 4 in this mini. Did he battle the Thing?

I know that was more of poking fun of you as you like DH 1

Well like Leo mentioned if someone posts feats of them over the caps he will be banned.

but i'm not sure a scan showing him healing like wolverine WOULD be above caps. though i confess to not knowing the incident you're referring to. 😬

#2 from the mini?

He actually overpowered Thing at one point in a grapple, but not before taking a few shots. And he BFR'd Thing off a bridge, so the fight was inconclusive.

So it's conceivable that his strength is > Thing, but not by a whole lot. Thing also managed to disable the blaster configuration on DHII's arm by smooshing it before the BFR happened, so the fight wasn't one-sided.

I think that's bullsh!t, if you have scans of a character being over the caps, get it out of the way in the discussion/confirmation thread ... don't sit on them in hopes of getting your opponents disqualified.

That's pretty cowardly (and a total dickhead thing to do)

😉

The only problem should be if someone tries to use over the limit scans in their own favour.

bumped because I think my odds are gonna go up when my amalgam is unveiled. 😈

I just finished my amalgam's picture .. prepare to poop thy pants when it is revealed.

Already am en-T!T-y, already am.

I actually really want to see these amalgam pictures.

More than finding out who the amalgam's are 😬

And I want to show the pic I made ... but at the moment it would give too much away.

You really don't think you have anything to worry about do you?
Just go ahead and let us see your characters awesome greatness. So we may begin to tremble in fear. fear

As soon as the drafts are no longer able to be changed .... 😈

Have you made one? ... if not, go make one, they're almost essential to a tourney victory .... and you can post them all the time for no reason....

criminy . . .

let me guess -- that was an ironman level event and tp was hosting it. 😖hifty:

Yup.

😄

It used to be a lot harder to make images when I used crappy MS paint as you had to find the right pictures at the right angles in order to try to match them up.

So Digi, which characters do you think are good picks? (besides Death's Head 😆 )

Well....besides Minion (I also know who has him, since it's pretty common knowledge that I know a ton about him. I was contacted prior to the pick....which was kinda flattering). He's solid and all, but it's all in the power-meshing, so we'll see.

Since the beginning I've said that KK is a monster pick. Tony still has more showings than every other tech-type out there, so he's an awesome resource when used properly.

Then there's a bunch of "curiosity" picks like Spot, Mr. Terrific, Zero, Hank Pym, Northstar, etc. that could be awesome in the right amalgam but aren't insanely great on their own.
