Ill made these rules. The confirmation period is about making sure none of the draftees break the rules of the tourney, not participants own idea of what the rules 'should' be.
Does Synch break any of the rules? Yes? Then argue based on that. No? Then it's a valid pick. Do any of the mutants synch may be 'synching up' with break the rules? Yes? Then argue based on that. No? Then it's just a smart pick. 😬.

Adding into the fact that Phoenix pretty much said 'The end result of every mutant is Me' the judges should be able to understand our wish for banhammerage.
So, every mutant Synch's ever been near is turned into the Phoenix? I'd like to see those scans, if you don't mind.
3. No offensive telepathy (mind reading, mental bolts, emotion manipulation, psychic illusions, mind wiping, mental location tracking). Short term, limited clairvoyance (akin to a "Spider-sense"😉, and other passive telepathic traits will be allowed.
*edit
Synch is basically Lil Bow Wow in a costume unless he has an ability to copy. He's not above caps, and his powers fall under meshing. Just a smart pick.
Ill; something that has come up multiple times and I'm sure the people would like an official ruling on. Offensive telepathy users - are they banned outright, or just banned from using offensive telepathy? Thus far, I've answered worries with the following - is it sufficient?

The rule is no offensive telepathy - not no characters with offensive telepathy. I believe this is a clear distinction from the matter manipulation rule which SPECIFICALLY says "No character capable of offensive, organic matter manipulation will be allowed."For example, let us say that Emma Frost was within the cap limits. You could draft emma and use her diamond form, but would be disallowed from using any offensive telepathy during the tournament - still being granted full access to whatever 'passive' telepathic abilities you'd glean from her use.
If an amalgam is a telepathic powerhouse in an amalgam - cool - but the use of that power directly on the opposition is banned. Ill can feel free to overturn my interpretation, but that's how I read the rules.
Synch by himself is perfectly legal, and Sage by herself hardly ever uses her TP for purposes other than communication (in fact I was going to pick Sage myself but wasn't sure- in fact I was trying to be pretty careful with our picks). But her bio still states that at least in her period of being a spy at HellfireClub (shame on me for having little comics from that perios) she was able to use illusions etc so it's small possibility for cheating.
Synch WAS NEVER ABLE TO UNLOCK SOMEONE'S HIDDEN POTENTIAL. He can "synch" latent abilities of others, that's all and there's nothing illegal. Or maybe Fox was talking about Sage's jumpstart ability?
Synch by himself is OK and Sage by herself is OK, that's all.
In fact, I was trying to draft Mastermind III and Black Mamba- both can use their limited telepathy for pinpoint focusing of their illusion and some other stuff. Those picks were rejected, so chars with offensive TP are banned, not the TP itself.
And Synch is legal by himself.
But if the chars are OK themselves and there's no cap for meshing then I repeat that the only person who worries me from who remains in the roster is Jotaro- he deserves outright banning.

I can show you Emma tapping into Jubilee's full potential by using Synch as proxy:
Jubes's potential was only explored in alternate realities such as AOA when it was mentioned she could take out the new york sewer system. or in Team X 2000 where she was able to manipulate light for v arious effects including turning invisible.

Jotaro's stand is one of the invisible ones, also sptands are indestructable by default. There's possiblity than people who can see ghosts (Kira, Black Knight) can see those, but that's only a possibility. Having invisible invulnerable construct no one in tourney has any idea of is something that's illegal.

Akuki, I DROPPED my vote against Sage.
