Actually, having been involved in way too many tourneys, Delph would be at or near the top of my list. Id too. They know all the tricks. Not that others don't, but this is a different type of battle than most are used to in the vs. forum.

So I wouldn't need any info others than your user names. That would create a pretty quick hierarchy for me.

Well Dark, you just broke my heart.

In sight of the new stips I'll change my power, though I can't decide for one right now.

Again, proof will be needed, that's all.

You see that black tar that's all over him... That's Sasha's tar... And if you know anything about Sasha you know that she is tp and so with that tar on him he gets some mind control powers

This shit all over him

True, dat. I think based on that, carver would be at the bottom - even if he had chosen an Abstract's powerset (e.g. the Hulk).

Reflasssh, I did stay honourable to you till the bitter end, until Blair clarified, for what it;s worth 👆

You're not Cole. You're not a conduit anymore than Carver is a mutant. You don't get Sasha.

Keep your powers confined to electrical stuff (and I'm allowing Cole's showings with electricity) and you'll be fine. 👆

I want to be at the bottom of the list. You'll never know what is ripping you to shreds until it is too late.

So you want to be bottom, eh?

Tbh, it's going to be strange. One could be creating a wonderfully nuanced, skilled writeup - only to have it outdone because meanwhile, one of the speedsters in THEIR writeup had decided to target you first, rendering your entire plan moot.

Or say, if Time had decided in HIS writeup that he would be killing you first.

In my case, I will know everyone's threat levels. Informational advantage was one of the reasons I wanted telepathy to begin with. I'll be the only who can tell exactly what everyone's plans and locations are right away.

It's also why I'd leave Digi and Delph alone. Knowing about the potential mech battle, there's just no way I could interfere with that shit. Way too badass.

So we basically are all noobs then with our powers right?

Not complete noobs. We ran into that problem earlier. It's more like you don't have all their experiences bestowed upon you. Sin doesn't get all of Darwin's previously earned powers, and I can't immediately power through tp blockers for example.

You also don't choose a character or a whole set of powers.

For example, I cannot choose to be Kryptonian, or carver can choose to be a mutant, and then use EVERY single power as shown by a Kryptonian, or a mutant.

You cannot choose to be a conduit, and then choose every conduit power under the sun.

You just choose electricity based powers, and that's it. You're not Cole, or Sasha, you're SpawningPool with electricity powers, which you can use in the same way Cole perhaps used them.

Oh okay I got it

I choose DCU Superboy's tactile telekinesis as my new power.

Okay, read the last few pages, seems interesting.

Do we call dibs on a power now, or just send BW the pm and no-one knows what anyone else is thinking until it's all posted?

What are the caps, rulings and banned power lists so far?

DCNU Superboy is easily mid to high Herald.

God Blair is creating one, I think. No 'sets' of powers (I.e. I choose Captain Britain's link to the UK, which gives me superhuman stats, flight, etc etc etc), no lightspeeders, telepaths don't get the power to smash through TP blockers, no alliances, no prior knowledge, we all get a device that tells us within a 50 mile radius where everyone is (and it cannot be tampered with), you're not limited to showings from canon 616/Earth-1 universes in the case of Marvel/DC, and carver is the first to die.

Yeah, that's why I said DCU 😛

With his tactile telekinesis, he was able to destroy Black Lantern Superman body. High Herald power output.
