That's very Thunderstrike of you.
Fortunately I know, I can fly without my hammer if I don't need to.
Eh?

So intent on copying me and coming in second place. It's as if you Thor Girl and Eric stuck put together.

it would be vastly different were the characters familiar with the bodies and came in possessing all the knowledge of HOW to make the body function. but dropping your mind into a superhuman body and saying you could simply go about like nothing has happened and use all the powers as the hero himself could is . . . kinda silly, imo. occam's razor ftw, methinks.
I'd assume that our personalities would be imprinted in them, giving us the full range of abilities the character gives us.
However, let us assume what you said is true, and we were all just given the influx of powers. I agree with your assesment that the bricks would do best, unless, and this is conditional on the Speed Force and not my mind, I'd be protected from my own power. The Speed Force is what protects the Flash's body from burning from friction and is what gives his mind super charged abilities. I guess the same could be said for the power cosmic save that the Speed Force is its own thing entirely, powering up the Flash whereas the Power Cosmic is inherently inside any of the heralds that Galactus makes.
With that scenario, or the first where we all get the ability to effectively fight in our forms, I'm still the wild card, being the first out of the gate to understand the situation and run different strategies in my mind (Flash can run millions of calculations at once). And given that he has stolen speed from an entire planet before I don't see why a few guys who seem like statues to me would be any problem.
I'd rather not say who I think would win, as Im biased towards myself, but take into account the posters. Most are tournament vets, they have a certain "signature" to their strategies. You can guesstimate who would utilize their powers to the fullest, if we were given the ability to use them properly.

you think you would be able to cope with suddenly having your thoughts accelerated several BILLION times? i don't know you in person, but . . . i'd say NO HUMAN MIND could do that. it would take a long time to cope. more than likely you'd be thinking at regular speeds at the outset of the match because you'd HAVE to, or be utterly lost in your accelerated thinking. or be driven nuts by the influx of sensory data. flash and ss would be so alien, i don't see how any normal human mind could deal with their abilities without having a lot of time to do so.
again, this is assuming your minds are dropped directly into the bodies, without any prior knowledge or prep. knowing a character doesn't mean you could BE that character. 😬

Im not saying "I" by myself could cope. Simply that the Speed Force would protect me from the negative effects of it. If it doesnt, then of course I'd be writhing on the floor thinking about a million things while feeling like every second is a day.

😂
that's kinda what i was thinking. i'd think the SF would NOT protect you. flash had to LEARN how to use it properly. i could be wrong in that, but that's just my gut feeling.

For sake of arguement, if we were given the ability to use our characters properly and effectively would that change your opinion on the battle and if so, how?

yeah, that would change things, of course. but then it would be like a normal forum battle though and it would likely come down to flash and ss if we assume full potential and normal forum rules. i'd guess you, as flash, could steal the speed of the others. unless we use the old 'motion in marvel is not governed by the SF so you can't steal it', argument. if you couldn't steal ss's speed, he'd win, like he would any forum battle.
