Batdude123 and TheKahn's Holiday Herald Tournament

Teams
- two debaters each

Character Limits
- each team will select three characters for their teams with the top power limit set at the herald-level
- ie no team-busters like Despero or Thanos. Also, no characters that are physically invulnerable/indestructible
- no matter manipulation of the opposition's bodies or "speed stealing"
- more limits will be applied as necessary to keep things fair

Draft
- Thursday, Dec 17 2009 at 8:00 pm EST
- Characters will be drafted one at a time
- Teams will need to provide the names of both partners, the name of the character desired, and a link to a bio to secure the character
- Characters will be taken first come, first served

reminds me of batdude's tourney back in the day. looks interesting... mmm

Strictly comics no manga's? These Herald Tournaments are past the point of being stale and redundant.

Then don't participate.

the hundreds of comics characters aren't enough for you?

even with just heralds, that's dozens of picks to choose from.

No not really, you see those hundred’s of characters you speak of are reduced to like 20 or so same old faces.

I would love to see, how some members could use the Gold Saints, Titans, Bastard, Tetsuo etc… Agianst the likes such as Thor, Silver Surfer, Green Lanterns and so on.

Tetsuo has like 20 displays of power. I pity the fool who'd pit him against someone who's had their own series.

I do agree that it would have been nice to see Manga characters in here.

Well Tetsou has that nasty miniature Big Bang blast. I would love to see, what members could come up with during prep.

Whatever you're personal feelings are, at least Batman123 is willing to step up and devote a great deal of time and effort into organizing this thing. Its not easy or very thankful work but it helps keep some interests in the boards.

Imo, the winners tend to be decided not necessarily by whom each team picks but the originality and effectiveness with which they mesh their characters' strengths and minimize their weaknesses. Its the creativity that really makes this interesting to me.

You're more than welcomed to try and organize a manga/comic tournament if you want. Digi has a helpful guide on how to get started posted in here,iirc. 🙂

I am one of those rare hybrids that love comics as much as manga. What can I say, they entertain me. But I have noticed since 2005, that masses on this particular section repulse the idea of manga or anime being part of any versus topics for personal issues. I blame it on Superman vs. Goku. >_>

I would love to host one more tournament. Maybe even here. But my recent staffing, and joining a scan group has tied up my free time. Hell as we speak, I am writing up a translation script for a hard to find manga.

it's not "personal issues". it's about keeping the peace.

and if it's the same 20 people, that's the fault of the entrants, and not the fact that it's a comics tourney. there are tons of characters to choose from.

You think, that allowing manga characters will disrupt erratic behavior?

Excellent, good luck if you wish to partcipate.

on the forum in general? we do actually allow the odd thread. the problem is that the manga fans that have come on to the forum when we have allowed them have been, for the most part, nothing but trouble.

No not in the forum in general, but in a tournament.

illadelph's tournament/battledome rules with mixed genre characters is still officially active. blair and smurph made a team and are awaiting an opponent so.... what are you waiting for?

i picked a manga character in my team and no problems arose, just pm delph if you want him to gather judges, it's that easy.

I had no problem judging Psycho's team and it contained a Manga character.

Have everybody forgotten Akuki already? 🙁

Will Akuki ?coot

not every tournament has to have manga, though. there have been a few that have had it already...
