Curryman's Meta-Amalgam Tourney!

Is he? I'm very unfamiliar with him. I can't speak from a position of any knowledge, so that would likely have to be taken up by someone else. With PG, I followed JSA for a long time, so I could at least provide examples of my opinion if needed.

I am going by his rankings and placement in the recent tier list. He is listed as Low Herald.

So, are we going to raise red flags? Or are we going to let this slide?

I'm speculating that the beetle is embedded in Reyes' body and is counted as a body pick?

Yes. Aquaman is a low herald.

I suppose we should object then. Ultimately, allowing or letting slide is a curry/judges thing.

Assuming the forum tier list is what's being used I think the tourney rules pretty much speak for themselves, and re-drafts would be in order.

just checking in very briefly between obligations. i've no problem with any pick thus far. ultimo is tricky. based on his showings against IM, he's well above tony and war machine, but, and tony is now low herald, but...meh. i don't have problems with anyone else.

Ultimo is a high meta since like forever, leo, I remember you and Scoobs using him in Delph's Champions' League (good times). So unlike current PG he's OK in my opinion.
Did not read any New52 stuff except for Batgirl, heard New52 Mera is badass but cannot say anything on Aquaman.

From a competitive standpoint, I'm happy to adhere to the tiers thread and make the Aquaman chooser redraft. But the the sub feat doesn't necessarily sound like low herald. There are plenty of brawlers at high meta who could replicate that on land, or at least come close enough that the difference is negligible. But I may be missing context.

Anything involving knocking around Superman...that's obviously a different story. It should be noted that he wouldn't receive the trident though.

I think we're all a bit more meh on this one because it's not as clearly over the limit. Even within tiers, there's greater and lesser. Power Girl stomped on the limits. A couple flirt with them, Arthur included. So on principle, I'll object, but in reality, Aquaman doesn't bother me. I defer to curry and the judges.

...

Anyway, we're at 8 picks. 2 more, yeah?

Does the next round start only when the 1st round is completed?

I for one am going to question Powergirl as a choice. She stronger, faster and more Durable than both body picks I was denied.

Now your post is in the correct thread.

thanks, sorry didnt know

Abhi already redrafted (apparently, though curry hasn't posted it). Power Girl isn't being allowed. Abhi has Abomination instead.

I dont know looking at the Tiers list i see quite a few errors in all tiers. just allowing characters through solely based on their place in the list might end up with OP characters at play while e cluding some who should fit.

there's room for discussion and there are still some listed below high mets who can be questioned

yeah I noticed after I saw it moved here thanks. I would have been pissed if someon that far over my first picks in physicals was allowed when my picm of Golden Age Kent Nelson ( barely above GA Action 1 Superman level) was denied

On the change to Abomination, isn't he above base level Hulk quite a bit?
wouldnt that actually be ( at least in strength and durability) an increase from PG?

The Tier list is absolute guys, I must've looked at the wrong one cause I could've sworn that PG was in high-meta.

I told chipguy that he'd probably have to make a redraft.

Blue Beetle's abilities have been cleared as body. I would've allowed venom's symbiote under body as well 🙂

Maybe the tier list (from High Meta down) should be edited into the first post of this thread? Or at least have a link to the list you're using for tourney purposes as a reference guide maybe?
