Long as there's plausible low herald limits on both. Choosing just a power gives you a potential no-limit to them. Is there a character you have as a reference? There was an arc when Palmer himself could grow in size; I wasn't sure if that was your yardstick or not.
characters, is the way it has been described to me. it's not any one character as i understand, but rather feats from any character with size manipulation abilities. i've run everything by bw. as benchmarks go, the most famous size manipulators of course are palmer and pym, but between them they cover, well, pretty well any size imaginable. there won't be any no-limits, though i've seen a few things being attempted that wouldn't make the strategy very unique in this thread. 😂
that doesn't really answer any of my points either--were these 60 or so pages for...nothing? if it all comes down to just a single post, nothing in this thread would seem to matter much. or am i again, missing something...?
Well, the original intent wasn't a BZ. But, ya know, it's us.
The 60 pages were, in themselves, quite amusing. It may be able to inform our BZ arguments, if that's your thing. I think mostly, though, it's that we're realizing that while this is fun, it was going to go on for another 60 with zero resolution. Eventually, the glorious chaos gives way to redundancy.

Just find it odd that u propose that a teleporter with limited appearances and even less formidable displays of power would be a legitimate threat to anyone but himself
I guess not everyone is as smart as I am.
Don't you worry your pretty little head. Darwin isn't THAT bad of a joke character; you shouldn't sell yourself so short.

I change my mind. Sin is my first target.

Well, don't underestimate the defensive applications of telepathy I have access to. Thanks to the low herald cap, I'm not simply a mind controller. I'm not worried much about resistance either, considering the powerhouses in low herald(Cassy Nova/Stryfe/ShadowKing/etc).hmm....I might have to mind control Dark Saint into attacking you. I don't want Sin to have a bunch of powers at the start. lol
Thinking about it more. I might post my strategy here anyways. The creativity coming out of this thread interests me, and I won't get to see how people adapt to me unless we keep a post-tourney discussion going.
Yeah, you SHOULD post it. Take the plunge, and have confidence in yourself. It's the others, who have no confidence (Leo), imagination (carver) or both (Sin) who don't dare expose the man behind the curtain.
As Blair said, we will go into the match with 0 knowledge of each other, just vague powersets, user names and locations. So you wouldn't know, for example, if Digi is going to try and take you out at the bell or not - and even if you did (because he had said so earlier) you can't then go well Digi is my first target, because he is gunning for me.
It's hard to ignore Delph, because of what he said, but would we REALLY target him if all we knew about him was 'technopathy, Delph, California'? I doubt it - I certainly wouldn't. That is what we have to take into account when formulating our writeups, I guess.
