Hmm. I was slightly leaning towards team 2. Because Gladiator seems faster than everyone else. You could be right tho.

bloodlusted orion opens up with a full on astroforce which takes alot out of glad & should put sentry down. Than its 2 on 1 against a hurt opponent.

Render him as functionally incapacitated via Diana's lasso (not a "permanent" solution, but it could do in a pinch).

EDIT: Dammit... keep responding to people without weighing in...

I am leaning towards Gladiator/Sentry, in general, though Orion and Wonder Woman can dish it with the best of them.

The one thing that really keeps me hedging is Diana's lasso; both Gladiator and Sentry can be messed with mentally, do one degree or another, and the lasso can shatter the psyche of those who have any hidden insecurities or uncertainties (which is why Diana doesn't always use it one certain people); if she were able to get it on either of them, then she and Orion could contain/eventually overwhelm the other, given time. But that can be a big if -- she's been able to lasso Superman, but also not if he is prepared and actively avoiding it, and she, Supes, Gladiator, and Sentry are all in the same ballpark of speed/reflexes (if not exactly).

A tough call, but I think I have to side with Gladiator/Sentry, with a viable chance for winning for Team 1.

Wonder Woman is arguably almost as fast and Orion has great reflexes which are enhanced by the motherbox. When he fights Superman he usually draws for a good reason.

I agree.

One thing alot of people miss if they don't keep up with JL over the past ten years is that Diana's combat reflexes are actually faster than Superman's (as he acknowledges himself, and has been demonstrated on several occasions, with the most recent reference being their last fight with Amazo, where she commented -- via wordbox -- about Amazo's attacks "Hera, he's fast -- faster than Clark *Amazo hits her* -- fast as me..."wink I would say that puts her at least on par with Gladiator and Sentry.

Still, though, I give the edge to the latter, with the lasso making for the win if she can make it connect (then Orion's powers allow for the win).

Close... but still Team #2...

Sentry Is the weakest link. His skill is sub par to everyone here. His strength is ok. Not enough feats.

Are you just going by his fights when he holds back?

Zeuodin/quanchi: I am not a Sentry expert -- just familiar enough to give a decent opinion -- but I was under the impression that he was Superman-level strong. Not a "skilled" fighter, but fast, powerful, and damn near-indestructable (like Clark).

I am not "stuck" in my opinions, however, as many people around here seem to be; if I am mistaken in my assessment, somebody *reasonable* let me know. But I was under that impression...

Sentry has some really low showings. So many so that He isn't high herald. He maybe his high low herald. Or low Medium Herald.

Sentry's high feats are rather impressive imo, but his low ones are rather pathetic. The thing is though most if not all of his low ones are because he was afraid of cutting loose and holding back.

On a board he won't have that fear.

Team 1.
