Tournament Match 1

Judge's Vote

First I'd like to commend both of you on a good match. This tourney seems to be getting off to a good start.

As for my vote on the winner of this match, I'd have to vote for Scoobs. DL really presented no viable way of harming Scoob's character. Scoobs outlined very well what he intended to do and I do not think that IGW would be able to withstand a thunderclap of the magnitude Bigfoot would be able to unleash. I would have liked to see some creative use of the battlefield or some more creative strategies from Devil Lance. Once Scoobs got the upper hand it was almost like Devil Lance was on the defensive for the remainder of the fight and proposed moreso how he'd survive the initial onslaught more than how he'd actually score a victory.

Sorry DL. Hopefully you'll survive to round 2 and get another chance.

Vote Scoobless. 👆

It was a good match... the debating didn't go in the direction I was anticipating, so I was intrigued throughout most of it.

I'll vote Scoob. I felt that, while DL held certain edges (versatility, forcefields, etc.), they ultimately weren't enough to surmount Scoob's overwhelming offense. I also thought that Scoob seemed to have DL much more on his toes, as a defensive player, and that DL didn't really exercise his offensive attacks nearly as much as his defensive procedures.

Alright, here are my two cents and the vote.

Well, Scoobless had all his bases covered. He had the clear durability and strength edge, and even if he could not have taken some attacks he could have just gone intangible. As it is, there is no way that DL could have hurt him with the attacks on his disposal. I also feel that Scoob presented his points better and effectively used everything in his disposal - I felt that DL underused his character. Scoobless used lot of scans and all, and DL didn't really use the full capablities...I am not mentioning the possibilities of his character here, but lets just say that there was lot of them.

Out of the two, Scoobless's debating and usage of his character was simply superior. I give my vote to Scoobless. DL did well, but it is shame that he didn't use all his character's abilities to their fullest. 😬

I know my vote doesn’t really mean much now, but oh well.

He wasn’t being a jerk, he was simply telling the truth. 😬

DL kept bringing up the fact that he was invisible throughout the entire fight. Cool. However, D-Lance didn’t seem to understand that that meant all of nothing in the scheme of things. His continual blasts on Big Foot would be a little more annoying than a scratch, as Scoobs continually pointed out. His mace would be phased through, and every single method of attack DL came up with, I really didn’t see it working in order to knock Scoobless out for the victory. At the very BEST, all Devil Lance could possibly do is knock Big Foot back. And even with that statement, I’m being generous and giving DL the benefit of the doubt.

Now, let’s just say the blinding trick worked for DL. Then what? He’d still have no way of hurting BF. All Scoobs would have to do is thunderclap a bunch of times and IGW would be knocked the hell out. You don’t have to be able to see in order to clap your hands together… do you? IW’s shield might be able to withstand a few of the gigantic thunderclaps, but she couldn’t contain it forever. The same goes for Heather as well.

All in all, I was unimpressed with DL’s strategy. He failed to make solid use of his extremely large versatility advantage in this fight.

My vote: Scoobless
