Can't really blame them though....I'd do the same thing 😖hifty:

I'm sorry, but I can't allow Rachel with the Phoenix Force. 😬

well, its better that any loophole exploits gets cleared before the tourney actually starts than after

and you just know certain teams prob already have certain exploits prepared in their battleplans ready to unleash at the right moment 😉

also, didn't Thor also defeat Galactus?

Thor =\= Phoenix Force 😐

Technically Aunt May and Jarvis could beat Galactus if he was weakened enough. That feat really isn't the problem - its the damn near omnipotent PF.

Thor also beat Phoenix II, I guess he is banned as well.

Can Genis-Vell be negotiated? He is the pillar that supports our team.

but he didn't use a weak attack...he used his godblast. an attack that damaged a celestial, and drove away galactus. an attack that he can use at will. an attack, that seems to be above herald power.

In this situation, I'd say we need a majority vote with the judges giving their opinion on the matter.

Team Twig & Berries (Me and Validus) draft Superman.

I would like that, can I make a separate topic with a poll?

Which means that its up to the judges to decide if that particular tactic is allowable under the rules (assuming the team using him tries to make use of it during a fight). A lot of these characters are going to have high-end feats that might push the envelope, we just have to deal with them as best we can when they come up.

I vote yes provided that no feats are used from his "insane" period and any of his abilities used fall within the acceptable limits listed.

What are these so impressive feats, that happened in his insane era?

Duly noted. 👆

Forget it. I will talk to King Kandy over the draft.

In the mean time, I would like to draft Tangent Superman.

I'm just trying to get at the reasoning for not allowing for example genis or rachel.

if the reasoning is that certain of their powers exceed herald level, than the same could be said for many of the characters drafted.

since genis or rachel on the average are not necessarily more powerful than thor or surfer.

Thank You. facepalm

There's no way I'm allowing her.


I'm pretty sure that was an "alternate reality" Rachel so if she's barred it shouldn't be because of that.

From what I understand 616 Rachel doesn't really have any insane feats to her credit(and has lost to both Thor and Quasar) so as long as they plan on using feats of her's rather than feats of the "Phoenix Force" there really shouldn't be a problem IMO. I mean I'm not fighting for her to be allowed because her being a vessel for the PF DOES have a lot of potential for abuse and I know that you guys are wary of loopholes, but to me she just doesn't seem all that uber.

...Of course if I've heard wrong and it turns out that it was 616 Rachel who beat G and/or she has a bunch of uber feats then I'm wholeheartedly against her.

The majority of Genis' feats are above herald level, but that's not the case with Rachel. After all, we can't ban every single character with feat above their level. That would nullify the entire roster so far.

Rachel is being reconsidered. Our main concern is just trying to keep things on a somewhat even playing field for all involved. Please just be patient while we try and figure this out. 🙁

While you do that, I'll draft Loki.
