I can't see the King in character busting out The Voice. But then again in character I can't see Richie taking the fight very seriously when he gets a look at PG lol. But if we're just having everyone bust out their best shit from the gate then team one fairly comfortably. Something like 7/10 good hard fights.
As a side bar I still don't get why BB is continually placed in second string matches while people that he has defeated straight up are considered first stringers. Nova I can understand because of a lack of showings vs the elites. But why BB?

Supergirl and Powergirl are not second stringers based off fts. I know Black Bolt has hung with the best of them, hell, he has the best scared to fight him but that doesn't mean he will walk over every mid Herald that comes his way, especially Super mid Heralds.
Ok so you'd make a match that featured The Silver Surfer and Thor vs Powergirl and Supergirl? They are second stringers lulz. Powerful no doubt, but not elite.
A lot of characters have excellent feats, but feats isn't the only determining factor in how we look at characters here. As I understand it from the forum rules it essentially breaks down to feats, power set and portrayal/characterization. In no particular order. BB stands tall by all criteria.

He is usually considered in namor class with a devastating single attack which can bring down the best of 'em. Namor has done nearly all the things BB has done, beaten hulk, stalemated thor/hercules, stalemated sentry etc. I'm not sure anybody would give namor the win against either of these two.
It's really more because these 2 are a bad matchup for Namor. Kryptonian level heat vision can be quite nasty to a flying brick that loses some effectiveness from diminished contact with moisture. Black Bolt and Nova however do not have this glaring matchup weakness. Team 1 should win this. All they need is a nicely timed whisper or a powerfully woven gravity node.
