Comic Book Martial Artist Hierarchy

Started by Q9983 pages

She's facing a martial arts villain right now, a little patience I think will answer our questions quite well 🙂

Nick Fury to third.

I'm so stoked for Shadowland: Elektra.
You're looking forward to seeing Iron Fist paint the walls with her? 😛

Well, you are pretty epic... ermm

Canary will probably move down in the next update then.

Although, I'm tempted to vote against it purely because I can't think of anyone in the second tier who really deserves her spot more than her... And an empty spot is kind of messy as someone noted earlier.

Truth.

Switch my vote to against.

Maybe after she takes down Danny and Luke at same time it will pull your head out of the delusional Iron Fist haze you are in, and Danny can move back to top tier where he belongs? 😎

Then I can start my Elektra to cosmic campaign!

Edit: Well the writer did hint at her stabbing two people at the same time in the interview. I can only assume they're somewhat important people to have been mentioned at all because, well, it's kind of what she does.

It'll be pure PIS if she does. You can't have Danny doing the things he's been doing, and then have him job to Elektra.

@Srank,

He's fine where he is. 🙂

@ Thread

Regarding the top tier slot, I'm seeing a redundancy in counting votes against a particular character - since it seems to essentially be the same as the people voting for another character.

So could people just express which of the two current contenders (Psylocke, Black Panther) they think deserves the spot more?

"Write-in votes" of other characters are also acceptable but without additional support they'll probably end up being discarded, as with Sabretooth, X23 etc.

The voting as it stands:
Black Panther: 2 [comicfan, Trackz]
Psylocke: 5 [Konton, dmills*, srank, Omega, marwash]

*dmills you initially nominated Psylocke for top tier, but then wavered, and I can't remember if you've firmly placed your vote in her favor or not. Could you clarify?

I'm going with Psylocke. I just wanted to take an honest good look at BP before I made a final decision, but since no one has addressed the suit/gear issue, it's best that we move forward.

She's more skilled than he is, he is just far more versatile at chi amping. You'll see. 😎

@srank,

I know that you were being facetious, but to your larger point, I agree. If Danny gets schooled by Elektra, or any other top tier street leveler in Shadowland, I will vote him down a tier.

I don't agree at all with her being more skilled. She's a bad ass though so I have no real beef if someone thinks she is. It's certainly within reason.

Has Thanos ever demonstrated his combat skills?

I think its going to be a bunch of non-fights that end in draws so I wouldn't worry about it too much.

@srank,

The old World War Hulk number huh? You may be right. I can see the plot device now. Some mystical spell within Shadowland that dampens Iron Fists chi or some shyte like that. That's the Marvel way.

Yea, iirc he was beating up Huntress (though Oracle interrupted before things got too far), and fought against the 12 Brothers in Silk (did get temporarily taken down when two ganged up on him, but got back up and rejoined the fight).

Even when tied up he knocked out Hellhound too.

aye.

as for Psylocke, i honestly don't think she deserves to be up there, but that's just me.

It could go WWH style and DD will just rage stomp every Marvel Street like he is an abusive step father. 🙁

Maybe or maybe Elektra will pressure point shut down all his chi paths. That's what I'd have her do if I was writing it. 😈

How are any of them gonna beat Ghost Rider is what I wanna know
