2. Is Mr. Terrific low meta? I guess it was with prep in exotic battlefields, but I remember I think Blair doing some insane sh*t with him in that tourney delph ran on the other website.
=========
He's purely a prep guy, third smartest person in DCU. He's not even meta level by some standarts, and in case of 10 seconds prep is not that useful at all.
For a possible future Tourney how does this concept sound?

Essentially use that framework to create amalgams and debate them.
^ The only thing I'd suggest is to make a larger selection of powers to choose from. You're also probably going to have people debating/arguing why one power-set/ability costs less than another when it's obvious that the cheaper one is more "broken", so you'd probably want to be prepared for justifying point costs and the like. Outside of that, it sounds like it should do well if you generate enough interest.

Tbh, there's too much potential for loopholes with that format. There's some combination of stats that is overpowered compared to others that would be found in a tourney setting.
It's also too hard to debate in such a format without concrete feats. A "telepathy" vs. "willpower" debate, for example, would be impossible and fruitless, but similar debates would doubtless happen.
I'm not opposed to point-based systems, but I really think that particular one wouldn't work, even with some modifications.

That tourney would turn into a mess... no offense.

Again, it's far too conceptual to not turn into a mess. How do you have a speed vs. strength debate with no specific feats for either one? Now multiply that conundrum by at least 10 and you'd have your tourney.
I'm not intentionally trying to rain on your idea. New ideas are awesome, even if they don't happen. But I just can't see this one.
Hows this?
There are two sides...
The first side picks a character...so lets say there 4 people and they agreed to picked Thor. The second side picks a character also say like Superman.
The first side is to see who can debut that character the best, the second side is just for volunteering only.
Of course there will be judges.
