EVANGEL94's Final Slugfest Tournament Discussion Thread: Questions, Comments, & Talk

Just a reminder to everyone to vote in Kandy/Smurph as soon as possible, especially the few who voted before the 12 hour limit. I think Evangel extended the voting window, so we should all be able to.

Announcement

The identity of the replacement for TricksterPriest, along with their new team, will be revealed momentarily. Stay Tuned to find out.

-Evangel94

I bet its a skrull.

Heh. My writeup is 999 words. I didn't bother to check until just now when I realized it might be over the limit.

Also, my money's still on Mungi. I think the fake announcement earlier was just to throw us off.

It seems I couldn’t rest peacefully in my grave... I’m back, bitches, and hell’s come with me. 😮‍💨

But seriously, because of personal circumstances beyond my control I regrettably wasn’t able to see Evangel’s last tourney to the end. Since this is her Final Slugfest I can’t pass up the opportunity. Time to make up for lost time.

Anyway, here’s my team.

Morg (Power Cosmic/No Waters of Life)Herald of Galactus - 6 points

Red Shift Herald of Galactus - 6 points

Terrax Herald of Galactus - 6 points

Stardust Herald of Galactus- 6 points

15 minutes of battlefield prep - 1 point

Total 25 points

Welcome. I remember you from the old tourney. A shame you're inheriting an 0-1 record, but Cresh is pretty much a guaranteed win, so you'll be at 1-1 with a chance to move on in your 3rd match.

Pretty straightforward team, but there's a lot to be done with Power Cosmic.

Alright I'm here, where's the thread?

8. March 12: No match. - Done

12. March 18: 6vs12 F - Tommorow
13. March 19: 2vs8 D

I am postponing Typhus vs Creshosk until Wednesday. Tommorow will only be Symmetric Chaos vs SmurphSmash (Zeitgeist).

Man now we have to wonder if the number of Adaptoids is anywhere near the claims done by Gobber, that is for me the deciding point.

Also, what time are goober and I done officially? I ask because we'll probably just sit here and go back and forth as long as you let us unless we're given a time limit.

Because by the 24-hour rule, we're done in about half a minute.

{edit} I PMd goober with an offer to do 1 more post a piece, then declare ourselves finished.

I will end the match officially at 6:30PM CST in order to make sure everyone has a chance to vote.

Next match begins in 20 minutes.

Cool. Good luck guys.

Also, when might we be finding out 3rd round matchups?

When hell freezes over!

Just for the record I'm dismissing any consideration of the GL math equation because I consider it a non-characters, no showings for me equals no way to discuss it, so I'm going to set it aside for good or bad (as if he wasn't there). I don't see how this character was allowed in the first place 😬

Good idea! We should all totally ignore characters that participants spent points on. Just because, you know, we don't like them? 😕.

come on, that's a blatant mischaraterization of what he said.

My problem with that character is that is night impossible to prove capable of something, I mean, you can assume that someone like Dr Strange can destroy Drzzl, now, but try to find an scan where someone destroys or beats unconsious a math equation.

I will consider the character regarding the GL powerset, but I don't think is fair to take him seriously in the defense department.
