ummm..since neither of us have any prep, this looks like it's going to be a straight up brawl.

sooo, juggernaut being juggernaut is impervious to all forms of harm be it physical or energy bombardment just from him being the avatar of cyttorak.

the power gem grants the bearer control and manipulation of potentially all the energy in the universe* (possibly multiverse, not sure). in the case of cain marko, that power need only course through him subconsciously making him totally indestructible.

plus he now possesses the space gem allowing him free movement in the universe and the ability to control the placement of the universe's
occupants be them matter, energy, or anything else.

--though i'm sure he can't use it to that extent, it is probable that he can at least teleport himself and others as pip the troll did without effort and he is a moron.--

with those power sources it is safe to say that cain marko isn't in any danger from harm in this fight.

all i require from the -"Experience and memories from all previous matches fought are granted to all teams.your team should be more experienced and therefore arguably become better fighters, more motivated, better teamwork, more adept at using difficult or foreign equipment, etc" -stipulation is that juggernaut be able to freely teleport with use of the space gem, nothing too extravagant.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
so in essence, juggernaut activates his forcefield beyond full power
as soon as the match begins and then proceeds to smash heralds.

Battle

OK, for this battle I don’t see anyone getting a KO, however with my Heralds range of abilities an immobilization should be achievable. First, Stardust will engage Juggernaut in head to head, taking the brunt of the damage (being physically impossible to hurt, this shouldn’t be a problem). Morg, Terrax, and Redshift will be assisting, however their main objective will be to get the Gems away from Juggernaut. The 4 heralds should be able to slow him down enough to eventually get to the gems. If they’re under Juggernaut’s helmet on his forehead (like most users) then Morg, Redshif, and Terrax can just pry it off:

or

Once the gems are removed, Redshift will cut open a portal and remove them from the battlefield, leaving them with just regular Juggernaut to deal with. Terrax will then use his earth manipulation to bury him under five to ten miles of rock:

(Terrax’s Earth Manipulation w/o Power Cosmic - which amplifies his power)

(That tactic working on Juggernaut)

effectively immobilizing him for 10 minutes and winning the battle.

great post by the way^

that would totally work if the juggernaut wasn't using his force field.
the stipulations added by evengel make our character's more pressed for victory so logically the juggernaut wanting to win would activate his forcefield. it's not like he doesn't possess it.

oh yeah i forgot to add my customary juggy pic
notice the location of the gems:

Thanks, anyway, about the force field, Even when Juggernaut is determined to win, he rarely throws up the field:

In this latest fight with Hulk, Juggernaut doesn’t once throw his field up. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think Cain uses the field primarily for defense (blocking an explosion for example), and lowers it when he throws a punch. And with him brawling four heralds, he’s gonna be throwing a lot of punches. Off hand, the only time I can remember seeing him use it was to block a swing from Thor’s hammer.

good point but prior to his return to full power he was part of a few X-teams, they teach their ranks to use their respective power's effectively, I'm sure he should be a little more disciplined nowadays.

he didn't use his forcefield mostly because he didn't need to or to suit the plot of the story, hence his "loss" to thor.

I'm just applying that same juggernaut to this fight, one capable and willing to raise his forcefield against a strong opponent and in your case four strong opponents, more reason to raise the forcefield no?

Anyway, Guy222, Roldz, and Devil Lance are supervoting in this match.

However, if any of the following do not vote in this match during after the debate period has ended and the voting period has begun, then I will replace any of them with back-up supervoters. It is important that the supervoters cast they votes in these matches.

to me it all boils down to the juggernaut's forcefield. the main argument against it is that he rarely uses it but, in the events that he did use it the reasons were to make a point reinforcing his physical dominance over his opponent.

this tournament is a great reason for him to utilize his perfect defense against four powerful opponents as most other usages of his forcefield pale in comparison to the odds he now faces.

---------------------------------------------------------

and on a side note, how can morg and terrax co-exist on a team? these two (especially morg) start fighting just by being close to one another.

for example, the super-powerful being tyrant was faced by a combined effort of ganymede, terrax, morg, silver surfer, gladiator, beta ray bill, jack-of-hearts, and thanos. you would think that morg would focus on the task at hand but no, he had to pick this time to go after his rival even though the universe was at stake.

so....it may very well be morg vs juggygems vs redshift, stardust, and terrax. in fighting is a baaaad habit amongst heralds.

i think the juggernaut can use the confusion to gain the advantage.

Just as you claim that Juggernaut becomes more experienced with infinity gems with each passing match, my team has become more and more experienced working together. My team has fought three matches (not counting TricksterPriest’s match). Any infighting my team may have had would have occurred in the first early battles, and not this late in the tournament. With the rule of my team gaining experience and memories with each match, my teamwork can only get better.

Here’s scans of Morg not wanting to fight Terrax despite Terrax challenging him and threatening him:

Morg lives to serve Galactus, and time and time again he has remained loyal doing his job to the extreme even when faced with temptations. Saving the universe is different from gaining your fondest wish. With this possibility to serve Galactus once more, Morg won’t hesitate to cooperate. Stardust and Red Shift won’t allow any disorder with their fondest wishes on the line.

Voting for Typhus

Juggs doesn't put up his shield enough for it to be considered in character to do so. Plus even if he did he would have to lower it to attack the opposition.
not to mention the heralds will be opperating at speeds far greater than Cain can react too

My vote goes to Typhus

Heralds work in union would be too quick for Cain to counter

Well this match has passed the 24 hour mark, and once again we are awaiting the final judgment from the last supervoter. I will end this match as soon as the last supervoter (Roldz) votes. To all regular voters, if you still wish to cast your votes, you should do so as soon as possible. I don't consider a match done until the last vote is in, and I just wanted to thank both competitors for their participation in this tournament.

Why bother?
9-0 Typhus wins
6-3 Typhus still wins

ummm..since neither of us have any prep, this looks like it's going to be a straight up brawl.

Prep is not allowed on this match up? I might have missed something.. Ohh well..

Both didn't really use the potential of they're chosen characters. I guess no prep kinda make a battle lame.. Sorry guys..

Found it hard to believed that JUGS would be able to manipulate those gems like Psycho Gundam would like us to believed.. Adam pick the guardian of those gem for a reason..

The power gem i can see Jugs would be able to do it but not to the extent Psy G stipulated however the space gems i dont think so and with just the PG, it would'nt be enough to take out the heralds. They are just to versatile against a brick.. A BFR would take im out for the win..

So voting for Typhus...

My vote counts for little, but it's going for Psycho Gundam. All he really needs in this match is his forcefield being up, and I think he's shown good reason to believe it will be so.

Seriously, Juggernaut has put up its force field, enough times for us to know that its within his arsenal. With that force field up, I see no way Typhos can lay a finger. The force field is never compromised by sudden movements, since he is projecting energy blasts of its own. And surely at least remedial uses of the gem would be accessible.

Now that all the Supervoters have voted. I am now officially closing this match. This match has been open for 30+ hours, more than enough time. Tallying results....

9-2 loss for juggygems, but thats ok i didn't really believe he would win in the long run, eventually he would get buried deep enough for the time to elapse.

typhus's first post was solid enough for a victory anyway, again exellent first post.

the best part is we get to see a herald clash 😱
