They also fight with optimal abilities.
The rules clearly state even if Flash rarely, if ever, instantly defeats his villains in comics, he will in an arena fight. The only thing he won't do is use lethal moves, because that's against his ethics and isn't something we'd EVER see him try in a comic.

Right.
None of this stops BB from using a non lethal scream, or Superman from blitzing an opponent. Not anymore then it stops Flash from taking out Captain Boomerang 10/10, despite how comics actually play out.
Full Capacity
It is assumed that each contestant will fight to his/her best ability, but still within the character's personality, unless specified otherwise. That means they will use any powers at their disposal. For example, even though The Flash doesn't clock each of his own opponents in the first millisecond in his own comic, it is assumed that is a viable tactic on this board since it is a proven fact that he possesses that level of speed.
Originally posted by cdtmWTF do you mean a non-lethal scream?He can't change the lethality of his voice.A scream would almost kill supes.

But see its not in character for supes to blitz at the first second.You argue the character and not just the powerset.If you argued just the powerset surfer would be higher then high herald.So would supes and thor.Because they hold back.Thats in character and thats CIS and thats what stops supes from blitzing that the first second.
He can control the volume of the scream. (And I'm using "the scream" as a generic term for his power here.. Even if he whispers it, he's still using "the scream"..)
And from the wording of the rules, it sounds like it's meant to deter arguments like "Captain Marvel rips Sivana's head off", because that's grossly out of character. But saying "Billy grabs Sivanas ray gun at light speed" is fair game.
I mean, really, how often does Flash take out a villain in the first pico second? His comics would be pretty short if he did..

Grabbing a gun yes.Supes moves at light speed.But he doesn't just blitz people at the beginning.Its not in his character.Its in his powerset not his character
Exactly.In the forums he fights to the best of his abilites but also in character.You can have both.

But the rules address this:

Substitute in Black Bolt using the voice, or Superman using the speed blitz.
That's actually more likely in comics then Flash ending a fight early.
Originally posted by cdtmIts a viable tactic.That means they have the option to do it.But its not in character.How often does BB use him voice?Not much.How often does supes speed blitz.Not very much.Its not in their character?See where i'm getting at?

I don't think supes would do that...that would kill him.And really what info does the general public have on BB?Not much if any.
I dont think supes requires general public info. He didnt know about blacks abnormal brain ahead of time. Quick x-ray scan is all it took. Cauterizing it after severing the vocal cords shoulnt be to hard.

Vocal cord severing wouldn't stop it, as the voice really reliant on the vocal cords. It's actually an electron based power that's tied to the speech center of the brain.

^ I told you the general population know about his scream
Originally posted by paisapowerX-ray would tell him he has internal organs.Supes wouldn't know that he has uber powers by looking at his vocal cords.
