EVANGEL94's Final Slugfest Tournament Casual Match 1: Evangel94 vs Psycho Gundam

1) Yes, I believe since this was a 'time waster' match, and the NEXT match is already up, it's kosher to vote.

2) We aren't supposed to worry about what is in-character in tourneys, are we?

Aren't the actions of the characters at the discretion of the tourney participants?

Rules

#2 Characters will act in-character. If character nature dictates it, there can be in-fighting amongst team members despite the motivation. Warlock will only use the soul suck as a last resort against a ruthless villain who is killing his teammates, never on a hero. Same with Blackbolt’s scream or Thor’s godblast.

If it was the discretion of the participants, Galactus could have just grabbed the UN...

Anyways, apparently voting and discussing right now is a no-no, so I'll shut up.

In THIS thread?

This was the match made yesterday, was it not?

We can't vote in Kandy vs. Id for eleven hours...but this one should be fair game, no?

Yeah, voting for Evangel. More pics.

😐

And a slightly more well-defended argument, though this match was clearly more about random fun than serious debate.

Got to go with Evangel. Big G would make the energies of the Power Gem into his next meal and then take out Juggs indirectly...

Voting for Evangel. There were strategies Psycho could have gotten the win with, but he didn't use them.

how though, evangel calls him "juggyflash", that means he can move about in the manner the flash does even though i NEVER stated it. she believes he can do it, but the power gem. no juggernaut isn't used to power is he.....

the part about thing knocking out galactus was mostly due to dr. strange's spell, i dont have that option but i have the ability to oneshot anybody and have the means of connecting the punch without ever missing(juggerflash right) and galactus runs the risk of overloading if he absorbs energies directly from the power gem when it is not directly under his control.

Taking the fact that she called him JuggyFlash, which was obviously in an attempt at mild humor, and trying to squeeze a concession out of it is, at best, reaching.

You might actually have been better off with Flash instead of the Space Gem, because it would be easier to convince people that he'd always move at such speeds, rather than having to convince everyone that Juggernaut would use the gem to its fullest.

he doesn't need flash like speed when he can be anywhere at once, as pip the troll did. (and that guy at best is an ass hat)

all he needs is one punch and thats it

Galactus is going to gobble down the Juggyflash like the dollar menu from McDonalds. 😄

(Mmmm....McJuggynuggets)

hehehe

Vote for Gundam, because I don't find Ev's prep believably in character.

What!

Why is so out of character for Galactus to suck the lifeforce out of the battlefield and all the juicy dinosaurs inside it?! Galactus sole purpose is to eat! Explain now or I will nullify your vote! 😠 🙂

Sure you can be anywhere, but can you really generate the necessary power to kill Galactus?

Here's Galactus standing in the middle of a supernova, and he appears fine.

Dimensional tears in the fabric of space using the Space Gem? Galactus laughs at such things! Oh no what is Galactus doing?!

Galactus's actually shoved his arm into the dimensional tear and pulls it out with no consequence!

That's a supernova psychogundam. How is Juggernaut going to generate that much power when he can only subconciously tap into the power gem?

The machine... Galactus is starving, he's on the brink of death.

So he spends his sweet time trying to build a machine?

Doesn't personally drain the planet, just goes for a more devilish, but long-winded route.

And, if he doesn't get all that energy, he could be boned. Weak Galactus has embarrassingly low showings.

Hmm...somebody didn't read the first page very carefully or at all. 😉 Galactus is starving, so that is the perfect reason for him to feed!

I posted this scan to show that Galactus can re-create his planet energy draining cosmic convertor with a mere gesture.

Lower left hand corner.
"..as with a gesture, Galactus reconstitutes his cosmic converter...and begins to feed."

Galactus can reconstitute his converter instantly and spend his whole 36 hour prep draining the battlefield.

In that very same supernova Galactus is standing in that destroys a solar system, we have Thanos flying away from it.

But Thanos took on a Warrior Madness Thor with the Power Gem subconsciously amping Thor. If amped Thor can't even beat Thanos, how will he take on Galactus?

your impenetrable dome relegates the absorption effect to 100 cubic miles, just a snack at best

You're correct. But Galactus will drain everyone last ounce of lifeforce from the battlefield for an appetizer/snack. Enough to stave of starvation and prepare for dinner. Who do you think is going to be the main course? 😉

Here's a hint.

Juggernaut isn't going to tap into anything significant from the gems that can threaten Galactus. As I said in the rules, strangers to their items have rudimentary knowledge at best on how to use them. The rest is up to you to prove, which you haven't done thus far.

If draining you directly doesn't work, then the moment Galactus see's that you even have two of the Infinity Gems, he is going to find a way to take the gems from Juggy. It should be fairly easy too considering how Juggernaut is just going to run up to Galactus and try to punch him.

Once he has the gems from you, Galactus will BFR Juggernaut of the battlefield via instantaneous teleportation displayed below.

good point but, he still possesses the space gem and therefor cant be caught. plus galactus will be super drained and the punches will lay him out. juggy can do this forever, galactus in this state cannot.

I am pretty much done here. I will just reiterate the main points.

My main points basically:

1. Galactus can drain the battlefield to stave-off starvation in prep. All those dinosaurs can provide juicy morsels too. He then can drain Juggernaut for more energy if he so chooses. Since Juggernaut is also connected to Cytorak then Galactus could 'potentially' drain Cytorak through Juggernaut acting as "bridge." Juggernaut also possessing the Power Gem. Galactus could also draw energy from the gem for a massive meal.

2. Psycho Gundam did not adequately prove that Juggernaut could do anything more than subconsciously tap into the Infinity Gems. There's a difference between consciously using the Infinity Gems and just subconsciously 'tapping' into them.

3. Galactus is deeply familiar with the Infinity Gems. The moment he notices Juggernaut has two of them, Galactus will immediately find a way to remove the gems from Juggernaut and disarm him. It should be fairly easy to remove the gems from Juggernaut considering Juggernaut is going to try and punch Galactus. Without the gems, Juggernaut is no threat to Galactus. Then, Galactus can bfr Juggernaut off the battlefield.

In short, hopefully Psycho Gundam got in some good practice and learned new things that he can use against future opponents. It was a funny and interesting match up to say the least.

Technically at this point its 3 to 2 vote in favor of Moi, but votes don't really matter. At most they should give you an idea of how people thought of the arguments.
