The link to the printable bracket doesn't display the lower side of the bracket for me. Here are some links that may help:

Here's the only hiccup I foresee: let's say the winner of the winner's bracket loses in Match 18 (refer to bracket for numbering). It looks like the bracket has those same two fight again. Maybe if we rotate in all new judges? Or maybe we just declare the winner of Match 18 to be champion, even if both only have 1 loss once it's over.
Otherwise, it's pretty straightforward.

cap britain? i'm curious--he does have that little feat where he was able to stand against the full phoenix force..... obviously the sword is not his to gain, but if someone can unlock his 'full confidence' pretty sure that would push him well above limits. he's a weird character to figure....

How about a point system? Each judge vote accumulated is worth a point each, and a unanimous decision is worth an additional point. Tie breaker decided on strength of schedule and point total.
I'm not opposed to this, but it would still need a format for matches. Bracket, round robin, etc. I think the double elimination handles things nicely, without having to dip into anything more complicated.

not sure. can never keep all those avx books straight. whatever book this scan is from. secret avengers 28 maybe? anyway, cb has always had some pretty uber potential, and given someone took sage unlocking said potential could be an option.... just wanna get him straight.

Man, almost none of my backups got picked. Can I just field two more teams to bring us to 12?
I'd throw my hat in the ring, but I already know someone's strategy (which is what I was going to go in to do originally anyways), plus I've seen all the picks so it would be kind of unfair.

'twas mostly in jest. The double elimination bracket handles 10 competitors fairly well. And yeah, there's competitive considerations. It wouldn't hurt me as much as some, but might skew things for a few competitors. Probably best to keep you as a judge.
Unless you let one of us draft for you. I'd hook you up with someone awesome, like Crystal, Animal Man. Wait...or was that Long pig with Animal Man? Screw it, Batman for mind, body, AND powers.

They're also both Powers picks. I think leo's point was more general than speaking to that specific combo.
Sorry but link is not working for me.
I need to see the scans to determine if its legit, or an outliner. But than agian this is AvX. The entire event was poorly written and shitty.
On the other hand a confident Captain Britain, is High Meta. Mind inducing him with over-confidence isn't going to yield more power. Or at least not to my recollection.
Here ya go:

Sorry no zoom. I was working with leo's image, which was a bit small to begin with.

You're allowed to unlock and access abilities, but you're not allowed to directly boost your abilities beyond your amalgamation.
Once the three characters have been meshed you step into the field.
New powers might surface from your amalgamation, but you are not allowed to use power amplification. I'm specifically talking about the super-power that is known as power amplification.
Your amalgam is going to be beyond high meta, so don't worry about that.
