Christ, and they go after me for Bastion. 🙄

Ok I have a couple of questions for anyone who knows the answer.

1. Captain Nazi- Was he ever shown to be the physical equal of Captain Marvel? If not, how close where they in that regard?

2. How many appearances does the version of Bastion that Trickster's wanting to draft have?

as Bastion, established OZT (Uncanny X-Men #333, 1996); imprisoned Professor X & Mannites (Onslaught: Epilogue, 1997); OZT attacked X-Men (X-Men #65-69/Cable #45-47/X-Man #30/Uncanny X-Men #346/Wolverine #115-118/Generation X #29-31/X-Force #68-69, 1997); OZT shut down by government (X-Men #69, 1997); opposed by Cable & Machine Man, seemingly destroyed (Marvel Comics 1998 Annual Starring Cable & Machine Man /Marvel Comics 1998 Annual Starring Machine Man & Bastion, 1998);

In that case, I'll go ahead and allow him since most of the protest are a result of a wiki bio(and most seem to concern a different version than you're wanting). I'll trust that you're not trying to pull a fast one, because you seem to know more about him than anyone who's objected and not a lot of evidence has been brought forth to put him over the cap. But keep in mind that if it turns out that his AVERAGE showing puts him out of the average Iron Man level heroes league, I'll have to ban him even if it's mid match when I find out(and he will be one of the ones that the judges and I are watching).

Also, you'll have to confine yourself to that particular version's feats. You won't be able to use anything from Nimrod or Mastermold or his later appearances, only that specific version of Bastion.

Thank you. 👆 I'll stick to OZT feats, since I haven't been able to find much of the other stuff.

Much appreciated Goober.

sounds good. 🙂

Booo! ... ban him!

😛

Is it just me or does coming back to life seem over the killability limit

😕

NOT THAT I CARE OR ANYTHING

just saying

that's not Bastion. That is a prime Sentinel. And it's technically dead. It's the nano implants activating and using the body as a shell.

Yes, weaker versions of Bastion are coming back to life from the dead.

So, you're saying ...... I can't draft Jesus or E.T.?

🙁

..............Joey, just lie down before you hurt yourself. Bastion isn't human. 2nd, those people are effectively cyborgs. They don't need their organic components to function.

They died and came back to life. No different from externals dying and coming back to life.

🤨 Externals are immortal to begin with. the prime sentinels are nanotech in human bodies. and for the record, Bastion was killed by blasting him apart or taking his head off. so yes, he has some enhanced durability. But he's not over the caps.

Or let me put it in terms you can even understand. The cyborg suffered multiple fatal wounds and died only to regen and get back up in minutes like nothing happened. That's over limits.

Externals are immortal

this is why Selene killed them all.

IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW!

🤨 The human died. The prime sentinel was activated and took over the body. Different person. and of course you'd have to dismember Bastion or blow his chest apart or take his head off. But so what? Sabertooth and Wolverine are like that.

And conviently instantly regenerated all the stab wounds and such.

The healing factor I see here is more Deadpool, which is banned.

And honestly, Wolverine and Sabertooth should be banned too.

......Joey, how about we ban you and save ourselves some bitching? 🙄
