I was told if I use Thunder as my mind and Ex as my power, I wouldn't be allowed his axe. That doesn't make sense to me, does it to you?

can't think of it that way, lp. the mind simply controlled the equipment, that's it. it made things challenging at times.

and skurge would have been fine, imo. wonderman has given thor more trouble in the past than skurge has. the axe may have been a questioned, but given the level BK's weapons can absorb SKYFATHER level powers . . .) it likely should have been ok'd as well.

but you'd have had to taken his mind to get the axe. he really has no 'powers' to speak of.

When are the brackets getting announced?

I just did the 'names out of the hat' drawings & have the round 1 pairings.

I'm letting goob confirm them though.

😐

Finally......though I have to admit, I liked the seeds better (like you had it)

Here you go people, the first round match ups...

1.Scoobless vs devil lance

2.Leonidas vs Entity

3.Newjack vs roldz

4.Blair Wind vs King Kandy

5.martian_mind vs Trickster

6.long pig vs Joey Stacks

Scoobs/DL's and leo/Entity's matches will start Monday, so you guys get ready.

Also, I still haven't really heard any opinions about Roldz changing out Chamber for Backlash so is everyone cool with it?

😈 Martian. finally. I'm cool if the judges say he's ok. his insta-healing via turning to mist is iffy.

Finally 🙂

Does Meemoo inlove have access to the other Legion equipment (thanks to Karate Kid).

Like the force belt

🙂

or is it just a flight ring only affair?

I know, I laughed my ass off when Eth sent me the results and you guys were matched up together. It'll be good to see you guys finally square off tourney style.

Thanks Goober. 👆 So about Backlash, can he really insta-heal via turning to mist? I read over his abilities and he might be over the caps. 😬 If the judges are cool with it, no problem. I'll defer to people who know Wildstorm better than me. 😉

As regards KK, he just gets the flight ring, right? Btw, in case someone was planning it, the ring is not affected by magnetics.

According to Stacks Cosmic Boy used magnetism on him before with the ring 😬

Which version? pre-ZH? Pre-crisis? Post IC? I'm sure one of them wasn't affected. Grey Fox or Soljer would probably know. hmm

and isn't Cosmic Boy a matter manipulator?

Nah, it was actually his metallic armbands, which, fortunately for Stacks, isn't a part of his standard equipment!

Two things about Booster Gold I need to know. He gets his basic/classic stuff, right? No skeets, no time travel, no supernova equip?

In case the tourney winner is willing and my own schedual allows, the amalgam I'LL be using in the "bonus round" will be made up of...

Body=Namor
Mind=Dr. Druid
Powers=Phantazia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phantazia

Quick question I've seen two different versions of Roldz guy being listed which one is it

Is it the
1.(Mind) Dane*
2.(Body) Warbird
3.(Powers) Gambit
One listed above

Or is it this one he has been posting as having in the Odds thread.
