Just use feats from when Hector Hall was Dr. Fate. It shouldn't be hard, and you'll have a lots of feats to choose from...unless you're operating under the assumption that any incarnation of Fate was ok for tourney purposes, which it clearly isn't.

Apparently you missed your own quote up there, and the part where you tried to use Kent Nelson showings.
Because Kent Nelson = host to Nabu in human form, Jesus.
Also, I realize I'm not going to convince you of anything.
Of course you aren't convincing me of anything, I doubt you've even read a comic with Hector Hall in it. I'm sitting here telling you that all of Hector's magic showings are Nabu giving him advice and providing scans and you're STILL arguing.
It's either Nabu switching minds with Fate is 'outside intereference' or all of Fate's showings are invalid because of 'outside intereference'
I've read plenty of JSA. Not all of Fate's showings, mind you, but I'm familiar with the character.
And you're once again devolving into accusations and insults when I'm trying to give you advice. It's immaturity like this that makes me lose interest in trying to help, because at the end of the day it's not what you think but what the judges think that matters. Getting upset isn't nearly as productive as learning, or at least being respectful.
If you were familiar with the character this would be a non issue and my reasoning wouldn't be 'playing the martyr.' Hector Hall without Nabu doesn't know much in terms of magic and all of his major mystical showings stem from Nabu telling him what to do. By your reasoning these showings are as non-valid as my plan of having Nabu take over thanks to 'outside assistance.' Hector was never trained to use magic and never received lessons, he only got a mouthful of Nabu smack talk and him giving him instructions on what to do.
You're not giving 'advice' as you've so far displayed minimal knowledge on the character in question and refuse to listen to reason. I'm showing you evidence that it is Nabu himself that gives Hector the mojo to do what he does and all you're doing is playing the same semantic game you unreasonably accused me of playing earlier.

Haha! 👆
Good one. Blame everyone else.
They're just too ignorant to see your genius.
You're starting to sound like TricksterPriest.
^Yeah, Soljer, that post was brilliantly put together as your average SHSD posts. 😂
I'm not blaming anyone nor do I care that I'm getting voted against, I'm just stunned at the selective reasoning and unfound assertions.
It's okay to use Nabu feats, just don't use Nabu himself.
And your 'advice' is basically ^

Can mods put people on ignore for the forums that they don't moderate?
🙂.
So the secret volunteer has been revealed:
Typhus
Morg (Power Cosmic/No Waters of Life)Herald of Galactus - 6 points
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MorgRed Shift Herald of Galactus - 6 points
http://www.marvel.com/universe/Red_ShiftTerrax Herald of Galactus - 6 points
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TerraxStardust Herald of Galactus- 6 points
http://www.marvel.com/universe/Stardust15 minutes of battlefield prep - 1 point
Total 25 points
What does everyone think of the new entrants team and potential?
Well at least he made his entrance with great heraldry.
...but we won't really know until we see a battle strategy, which won't really have to be until his 3rd match since he gets Cresh next. I know what I'd do with, say, 4 Surfers or something, but I'm not too familiar with feats for these 4, so I don't know if they're just limited to energy blasts and such or more diverse stuff.
Anyway, thanks for heralding his coming into the tourney.

Redshift ability to bend space comes in handy. Especially if he going to literately cut space, its hard to defend against .
Stardust is self explanatory, the interesting part; for those who have footers. Can the survive being infinitely compressed within the event horizon?
I know nothing of Terrax, other then Sentry handing his ass.
I know even less of Morg.

TERRIBLE pun.
for id369- brief history off hand
morg
morg was an executioner on his home world and killed tons of beings.
I think galactus ate his homeworld and that made morg happy since he is sadistic.he is now the last of his race. becomes a herald then on an assignment to an alien planet, he slays the protectors of a lazerus pit filled with cosmic energy. he then bathes in it, transforming him into a herald more powerful than roughly all the previous heralds combined.
terrax
tyros was a dictator of the planet birj or lanlak(whatever)and also a mutant able to control earth and soil to do as he wished. he also was attacked by galactus and made a deal to serve him, to becom terrax the tamer. the power cosmic amplified his terrakinesis a thousand fold, now he can move moons with a though or/and control smaller minerals thousands of miles per hour and in large abundance.
terrax is on the weaker side of the known heralds and morg is one of the strongest(even without the amp). they both have cosmic axes that they focus their blasts and powers through(like odin does gugnir)
but these two don't like each other to say the least so, typhos definitely needs mind control.
sorry for the word blitz but herelds are cool

Well about the not liking each other - Morg and Terrax actually have fought, and although Morg was clearly stronger in the end they respected each other as warriors and Terrax accepted his defeat. If they were thrown into battle together for their greatest wish they wouldn't have a problem teaming up.
And Terrax is not a low-end Herald. I mean, the guy once destroyed a planet with a fully charged swing.

Umm, not to be an jerk or anything but Typhus lacks the 1000 posts needed to so much as vote in the tournament.
Typhus as a replacement for TricksterPriest, as a previous participant of the last Slugfest tournament, and having been on the forum for 2 years, has enough credentials in my book.
