Apocalypse Gauntlet

The Omnipotent Ghost of Battles Past has decided to replay some old fights/encounters.

For the purposes of this Gauntlet, the Ghost erases previous encounters between Apocalypse and his opponent in any particular round i.e. try to take into account both characters' shown capabilities in their other appearances, rather than in their encounters with each other - where either may or may not have fought to the best of their ability.

In no particular order Apocalypse and an opponent are transported to opposite sides of a large uninhabited city environment, given 2 minutes of defensive prep, then made to fight. After each fight Apocalypse is fully revived and transported to the next battle.

1. Namor
2. Hulk
3. Mr Sinister
4. Dracula
5. Xavier (telepathic battle)
6. Black Bolt
7. Ikaris
8. Loki
9. High Evolutionary

Who wins and by how many/10 for each fight?

Narcissist that I am, my take on my thread.

1. Apocalypse 10/10
2. Apocalypse 9-10/10
3. Apocalypse 10/10, although it would be a war of attrition.
4. 5/10 each split, or edge to Apocalypse
5. Xavier 9/10, telepathy only battle Apocalypse has nothing on Xavier.
6. Black Bolt 7-8/10
7. Ikaris 7-8/10
8. Loki 9/10
9. High Evolutionary 10/10

I don't wanna play Wonder Twins anymore!!! 🙁

"My bother Bradley and I used to always pretend that we were The Wonder Twins -- he would always become "Form of a Dragon!" and then I would want to be a dragon too. But he said I had to be something made of water. So I'd be like, "Shape of an Ice Dragon!" And then... he would say that I was copying him and he'd breathe on me and I'd have to melt, but it was still... so... awesome."

I don't know how can you give Ikaris, Loki and HE 10/10, while they couldn't win, man, that automatically can't be 10/10.

Ok, your opinion.

xmarksthespot, you are known, everything Apocaylpse did, was something wrong with others.

1. Apocalypse 10/10
2. Apocalypse 10/10
3. Apocalypse 10/10
4. Apocalypse 10/10
5. Apocalypse 10/10
6. Apocalypse 10/10
7. Apocalypse 8/10
8. Apocalypse 7-8/10
9. Apocalypse 5/10

LMAO at 4-9.

What a **** stupid hater of Apocalypse.

You give to BB, Ikaris and Loki 8-10/10, while they couldn't do shit to him, when they faced. You must be stupid.
Or for Dracula 5-6, **** it. What the **** can Dracula do to FP Apocalypse.
He was killed by weaken Apocalypse.

You ****ing dumbass.

Apocalypse has already beat Ikaris and Loki. Black Bolt's scream didn't even affect him.

So basically. "for this fight remove Apocalypses strongest feats"

That was a whisper...

Example
#1:
Past encounter between Namor and Apocalypse is removed.

#8:
Past encounter between Loki and Apocalypse is removed.

#9:
Past encounter between the High Evolutionary and Apocalypse is removed.

The purpose being to take into account the other showings of the characters fighting - rather than cite an encounter where either character in any particular pairing may or may not have been portrayed well.

On an aside: Fighting Ikaris, or Loki, or the High Evolutionary in itself isn't "a feat." Whatever he did in those fights, impressive or not, to counteract whatever the opponent did, impressive or not, would be the actual feats. For an analogous situation occasionally someone will write "Hulk fights Thor." or "Hulk fights Silver Surfer." as if that were a feat.
