hence why to his perception he is also dead. Noz is present at all times, and its fact he is dead in the future. Other characters are ambigious, especially immortal ones not that their relevent.

Wait, so BT is using that Noz is conscious in all his time lines, and that he is dead in the future to say that, since he is dead, he automatically loses?
Death is kinda the end of a thread, death, defeat or K.O that is.
Everyone else is telling you this, but there are a few serious problems with this.
1) By this logic, every other character in a thread automatically loses as they are dead in the future.
2) The only difference between Noz and every other character, is that Noz is aware of all his other selves and they share a consciousness. His dead self is obviously excluded, since it's dead.
I'm just going to leave it there since I've already contradicted myself by participating in this thread. Noz threads are a ridiculous train of logic.

1. Their not concious in all their forms throughout time however, and thats not true anyway.
2. excluded? not so, he is concious in all his forms, apart from the dead one but he still knows his death, that was part of what was supposed to humble him from Aman'thul.
Nozdormus future and past are also his present, technically there are no differences between them at least to his mind since their all his "present", even if their not anyone elses.
Fair enough, i think your flaw in your logic is assuming choosing a Nozdormu, preferably the strongest version in a vs like we do with most characters is the same as those characters but as you have pointed out, all Nozdormus are the same, their all the same being. If you want to choose the strongest Noz and suggest cutting him off from all his other selves then ok, thats fine, we should ask the thread starters to do so but otherwise....
He is dead, simple fact. Unlike most characters his last showing, his death is at least to his perception his "present" as well. Nozdormu is officially dead as soon as he enters a thread, because regardless of how healthy and active he is in his other "selves", their irrelevent since his most current, his most present etc etc are also dead. Argueing "Noz in another period of time did thus" is fine in the Warcraft universe, but in this thread if he is connected to all his other selves, he is also dead. Dieing is also his last showing, but unlike other characters, he is also alive. He is both dead and alive, but if we take his most recent which is his death, like we do with most characters he is overall dead, even he is alive. Hard to explain but there it is.

Your trying to argue/bait an irrelevant point. Nozdormu is "dead" in a sense Kain will never be.
O RLY?
Kain's body is biologically dead, correct?
Kain's heart is gone, and he is essentially possessing nothing more then a dead body, correct?
Kain's "true self" is nothing more then his spirit and conscience, correct?
Kain is dead, that's all there is to it.
Though your point is moot. The normal objective of a match is to make the opponent unable to fight, not to necessarily kill the opponent. Nozdormu, even if he is dead, would still be capable of defeating his opponent.
