You guys just need more structure. Whereas the "wtf is going on" act was just an act with Scoob and I or leo and I, a lot of it has been very real with you two. I feel completely justified in my KMC existence right now, because either one of you were magnitudes less dysfunctional with me as a teammate.

😎

You were just easier to manipulate than Leo.

So is that Jackie from before his 21st Birthday then?

Just Jackie with out his Darkness powers. I don’t really have any plans for him. I just wanted to draft him to fill in a spot.

Dropping:

Hawkeye (15)
Joker (5)

Adding:
Firehawk (20 pts) - http://en.dcdatabaseproject.com/Lorraine_Reilly_(New_Earth)

Notes:
- Firehawk has already been drafted and accepted for 20 pts. earlier in the tourney. Like I said before, Firestar with less appearances. Hopefully no objections will be raised.

agreed. 😐

Dropping:

Storm (30)

Adding:

Black Knight (25 pts.) (Avalon Equipment) - http://www.marvel.com/universe/Black_Knight_(Dane_Whitman)

Notes:

- There's a few versions of Dane Whitman (BK), revolving around different equipment. There's the version with the Ebony Blade, his Avalon equipment (which I actually think is his current iteration), and a time between those two when he just had a metal horse and an energy blade. I'm taking the Avalon period, which is current anyway if I'm right.

- I talked with Newjak extensively about BK, his iterations, and what he should cost (though I did all of my own research). One could make the case for him at 30 points (though just barely), but we both agreed that 25 was more logical. If anyone has objections, I (or NJ) can help to justify him at 25.

I heard some funky stuff about the Ebony blade, with ridiculous ownage.

It's fairly epic. But I don't have that version of him. Though even with the EB, he'd likely only be 25. Awesome weapon, but Dane is still just a skilled human wielding it. It's like if you or I wielded Mjolnir, but we didn't get Thor's physical stats. We'd be able to do a ton with it, but Iron Man would probably still own us to sh*t. It's also not quite as uber as Mjolnir, btw. Though the energy soak it has is equally as impressive.

EB dane would certainly NOT be 25pts . . . 15 (20 at the very outside)would be a much more fair price if someone were considering him with the EB. BK<cap, wolverine, spidey, etc . . .

i agree--with avalon stuff he should be 25 though.

Thanks leo. Here I thought you were going to push for 30.

You might be thinking of the energy blade version, which was definitely no more than 15-20. The EB is enough to push him to 20 though, imo. Anyway, Avalon, 25. Good times.

Let's split the difference and say BK + EB = 45 points ... that way everyone is happy.

20 at the very outside--i wouldn't object to 15--the sword does nothing unless it actually HITS someone, though it is good against magic. again, with the EB he would still lose to cap, batman, wolverine and the like. the sword has no energy or range attacks and has cutting feats below wolvie's claws.

meh, 20 would be all right, but 15 would be fine imo.

that's gonna make it suck when WE have to draft him . . . 😐

I have bin in high tier tournaments where the E. Blade is sought as much as the Mjolnir and GL rings.

I may need to reconsider this, if I can get the EB version for that much. Good thing I have a day to mull it over. Chances are I'll just stay with the Avalon stuff.

the EB is pretty powerful--no where near a ring or mjollnir though. not even close, really. 😬

it would make a nice bonus weapon for a powerful character, but its range sucks, no energy and the fact that BK can be handled h2h by more skilled opponents makes him 15 in my book. remember we're dealing with just the character and his showings, and nothing DANE himself has done would warrant more than 20 at most with the EB. least imo.

Members seek out to claim, the blades ability to pawn magic beyond the herald class.

You say, Dane is limited to his showings with the blade. But it does not limit the blades function in any shape or form. It may not be a trick of all trades, but it exceeds in its single function.

Well, seeing as Digi just took him for the last draft of the league I doubt there's much chance of that happening.
