okay, so sweet. we won. does that mean smurph (did he actually win his pool, or is there supposed to be some tie-breaker match with him and paul since i think paul went undefeated in his pool??) get to choose 1 guy from bw's team to supplement our current teams?
when is the final scheduled to start? a week off would be nice since it's been match after match for me the last few weeks and school ends this week.
and just to save the headaches, i will refrain from building a cube in the final . . .

As it was, Paul quit anyways, so...
And Bran is MIA.
I'll go pick my character then?

The way it will work is that yes Smurph and you will get to chose which character you will switch out for from B-Dub's team. Just remember if you get take one of his singles yu much switch it out with one of your singles. If you take one of his combos you must switch it out for one of your own amalgams.
I will try and put up the battlefield tomorrow. Then you guys will get a week before the finals start.
You will also get to switch your roster tomorrow. Leo will get the first pick as it was his team that won the match. Smurph will get second.
Now that I am out of this thing, would this move have been illegal considering it was done on Mon El:

yeah, that would have been fine. thought you tried something like that early on anyway . . .since today is the day we can switch out guys, guess i'll swap out my single wiz kid, for lightray. i regret choosing wiz kid now. 😬
Really useless pick. Like my Apollo (though I Adaptoidised him to make him more of useful one).
Anyway, that gravity attack by B-Dub was not a big factor in a match, since there was Graviton to counter.

yeah, making him an adaptoid helped. thought his ability to create and manipulate computers would help, but with reed and forge . . . 😬
so po'd that i didn't take spiral . . . 🙁
Originally posted by Blair WindYeah I wouldn't have had a problem with that attack.

And Hawksmoor was a risky draft- based on idea that I would stumble over a city as prep\battle area at least once. It was only once, as a prep area, though both me and Leo capitalised on it.
The amalgam Nate\Mantis was made to leave free slot for Graviton, and to capitalise on Mantis' natural form being astral projection to make the most out of Nate's dominance over astral plane.
In fact, pre-tourney I had an idea of making magic uber-powerhouse by amalgamating Spawn and Daimon Hellstorm (Daimon gains his powers from the sins of all humanity, and Spawn's source of power is sins as well, but he usually gets that energy on less larger scale- the result would have been something around 2nd age Spawn). That plan was ruined by Akuki taking Spawn for himself...can't say my former teammate did good with it- using Meggan to power him up and she has never worked that way and with that energy, while Daimon- "the nexus of all sins" would have made that amalgam EASILY the best mystical warrior in the tourney.
Ok then here is the final battle field for the tourney.
WELCOME TO THE PRISON
You are getting to go to the Nexus of everything. To the greatest prison system ever constructed. Only the baddest, most powerful people get locked away here, and for good reason. It is inescapable for anyone or anything.
First the size. Say hello again to the bubble, which will once again play the outside barrier for the battle field. This time though it will be the size of a Solar System. All non flying combatants will be granted half the speed of light for travel. A new tid bit added though will be that if you enter the Sphere you will come out the opposite side of it. Think Pac-Man.
Next the inside will of course consist of the vortex. This time the wind will move at 3/4s the speed of light, and visibility will be reduced by 95%. Now something else that will be added will be the fact that small very sharp bits of Adamantium will also be circling in with all the wind. Of course this makes flight inside of the winds very dangerous. Something else you will need to be on the lookout for is a similar amount and scale of Vibranium that is also being hurled around. There is no eye of the storm meaing, there is no reprieve from the storm will be given...
Except for the hundreds of moon sized prison cubes that dot the landscape. When picking up a picture of the cubes think Borg. These cubes have housed the most dangerous creatures in the known existence of all. Though they be abandoned now, but you must ask how they managed to contain such fearsome monsters.
Well the secret is in their absolute power nullification fields that extend throughout the entire cube complex, from the prison cells to the dining halls even to the air ducts. No where on this ship is safe. Just how powerful are the power nullifiers on these cubes. Essentially they remove all powers considered above human of any origin. This includes, magical, cosmic, tech-based, and even species based. Everyone is equal in the Cube.
Well not entirely luckily for you guys the Prison Nexus as been abandoned for so long that the cubes are in a state of flux if you will. The power to each Cube goes of in ten minute intervals which includes the Power Nullifiers, which then followed by ten minutes of power. The outer hulls of the Cube are enforced Titanium to the strongest degree. Making it Adamantium light in durability for most people here it would be easily breached still.
Of course this state of flux in energy is caused by the power core of each of the cubes. They have been overloaded and now massive power surges and tremors are felt coming away from the center of the cube.
These power cores of roughly the size of New York City in diameter. They are mostly hollow and completely self contained from the outside of the prison. Except for one feature a massive beam of blue energy that constantly flows between to power receivers. The beam is the has the diameter of the Empire state building and of course the length of the core. So much power is in that beam that it can begin to melt adamantium. Smaller bolts shoot off of it now that it's containment field has been broken down.
Also before anyone asks no the Beam of Energy inside of the Power Core can not be tampered with by you guys.
So there ya go you can fight outside in the winds, in the prison, or the power core itself. Each one holds it's own unique ordeals to overcome and use to your advantage.
You guys sill start of in one of the Cubes at opposite ends of the Cube. Each group will start off in a cell, and the Power will have just gone back on as soon as you enter. That means that for the first ten minutes of the battle none of you will be with any powers or tech that is operational save human based abilities or basic tech things, such as watches.
