So Trickster, giving your penchant for making up rules

would drafting Barry Allen be a loophole?

What rule did Trick make up?

Multiple versions of Dr. Fate.

Multiple Stranges.

Alternates are forbidden completely though.

The rules say that if you take one Wolvie (or whomever) all other versions are out.

Under Trickster's rules, Steve Rodgers is a loophole.

Doesn't look like he was stating a rule. Looked like he was verifying if Evangel told him he couldn't pick a past version of Amazo.

Look's like he was making up rules

and given you are exploiting an even worse loophole

Or am I exploiting a loophole to a non-existant rule?

He considers his strat to be exploiting a loophole. He didn't say you were breaking a rule.

He says I shouldn't be calling anyone out (when the only thing I'm saying is Planet + GL ring = come on now) because I'm exploiting the system (which means dancing around the rules), what rule am I exploiting?

The non existent one that says you can't pick people like Monica Rambeau?

if you get PC Fate, then I get to cherrypick a version of Amazo. And Evangel outright lied to me.

Why is that?

Would getting Wendell Vaughn be an exploit in your warped version of the rules?

Trickster if you had common sense this wouldn't even be a thing.

Dr Fate = Multiple people
Kent
Jared
Hector
Inza
Kent Jr

just like how Captain Marvel =
Mar-Vell
Big Red Cheese
Monica Rambeau
Genis-Vell
And didn't Phyla have the moniker at one point?

I selected Kent like how one would select the Big Red Cheese

Your using terminology like Pre-Crisis doesn't really mean much when general consensus is Kent = Strange.

So if you have a problem with Strange also being drafted, then that's on you as he's already said to be a 6.

Goob has the most experience debating with his character (surfer) than any one else in this tourney.
I think he's gonna win.

Genis is a good pick for anyone who hasn't drafted yet.

Amazo would be 20 points. And you would drafting the regular version of him in DC continuity. Since the sign-up period is ending soon, I'll add your pick to the first draft.

Now, as I was saying, you illiterate misanthrope, there's a double standard here.

Amazo is his own person, goofy.

Kent Nelson =/= Hector Hall =/= Kent Jr

Just like how

Wendell Vaughn =/= Phyla Vell

Barry Allen =/= Wally West

Steve Rodgers =/= Bucky

Mar-Vell =/= Billy Batson

etc.

Like I said, common sense, if you had it, it'd be not a problem.

THERE IS MORE THAN 1 MODEL. THIS IS WHY AMAZO IS DIFFERENTIATED. NOT ALL AMAZOS HAVE THE SAME CAPAIBILITIES!

Now, is Evangel going to address this?

Not the point.

He was asking if Fate was more or less powerful than Strange.

I was saying that the answer to the question depends on which Fate and which Strange we are to compare by.

Because it's still Amazo.

Kent Nelson is Kent Nelson

Hector Hall is Hector Hall.

Yes Trick, but what you're proposing is a little different than what Stacks has done. Selecting a particular version of Amazo is selecting a specific version of a specific character, not picking a different character all together. In my mind it seems that it would be closer to picking Surfer with Loki's power addition from his fight with Thor, Hulk from the Secret Wars, or Thor from one of his times in the Destroyer Armor than it would be picking a COMPLETELY different version(such as the Pre-Crisis verson).

If you want to complain about the cost he had to pay that's one thing(and I'm sure that plenty of people will back you up) but PC Fate and Amazo fall into different categories IMO.

Hmm... I wasn't allowed a specific version of a legal character either. *shrugs* I've got work arounds where I can still get my strat even without that character. Waiting for her to get on again cause I still have questions.
