Sodam Yat Ion. Who wins?

Yo.

the way Yat comes off as a GL, Priest schools'im

Aside from not needing a ring/battery, did Priest do anything noteworthy? I skimmed through his handful of appearances, and nothing really stood out... /shrug

No, you're right. He really didn't, at least nothing that would warrant him beating Yat as Ion.

Yo.

when it comes to skill, Priest would be a lvls above him; so unless he just relied on his Daxamite abilities, I dont see Yat doing much to him in a GL-esque fight.

Didn't Priest build OA?

how impressive is it to own a guy who's tapping into the same source of energy that yur powered off of? cuz thats exactly the case here, so wat we saw was Yat exploit a connection, which is smart but hardly extraordinary, and certainly not something that shows Yat >>> Priest.

and not exactly, about Oa: Priest made an illusion/replica that fooled Hal, but Im not sure if he CONSTRUCTED A WHOLE PLANET; its not really clear from wat I remember.

You have my respect for not having anything from legacy in there. I would've had to track you down and slap you if you did. sneer

Yat used the connection to convert Nero's energies across the board, subsequently KO'ing him. Pretty impressive all things considered.

Regardless, can you name a feat Priest preformed that was better?

Oh God no. "Let's make a story about the biggest fu*king douche you can imagine, and give him awesome force abilities. But he's a huge douche.

How do you expect to get sales from that?

Hmm..Good question. Let's make him a Skywalker.

*hifive!*"




No.

Did you see the Sith names? What 13 year old teenage boy came up with those? Have you SEEN such crap in your life? I half expected to see "Darth Uber" and "Darth 2Awesome4u" in every issue, that's about the level of maturity their names had.

I actually liked Darth Krayt and Wyyrlock. Everyone else was meh.

Wyyrlock was cool (poor Andeddu jobbed sooo badly didn't he?). Krayt isn't a legacy-specific good (as you surely know) so you can't credit Legacy for him.

My personal faves were Bantha Rawk and Treis Sinde. Rawk just for being an awesome rawker, and Sinde cause he just seemed awesome in every way. Humanitarian, but still a loyal soldier. Powerful and imposing respect, but not ridiculously overpowered. Just right.

sure: being able to use the GE as effectively as he did w/o a Ring easily take that place, but to that I'll also add out-muscling Hals will over his own Ring too......

right, but then he DID start using it........right?? so how did that occur again if the CPB was *still* out of commission?

That's how.

Yo.

thanks for helping me show how skilled a RingSlinger Priest was, and even over Hal comrade, much abliged there.........

When the Battery was destroyed, Hal was unable to use his ring properly in other sectors of space, because the Battery wasn't there to automatically reprogram his ring to function correctly in sectors outside his own (as it had every single time before.) So obviously Hal never had the need to learn how to use his ring in these areas - he'd always relied on the Battery to do it for him... That's when Priest stepped in and helped train him how to use his ring properly again.

So what does that mean where Priest is concerned? It means that he knew how to function independent from the Battery (which we already knew), thus he could train Hal how to use his ring in other sectors of the universe. How you think that would help him defeat Yat, though, is entirely beyond me...

so in essence: he took the top participant of wat remained of the GLC, and showed'em how to work past a broken function of a standard piece of equipment, before he then showed him how to operate independently from it entirely.

yea, Id say that a pretty damned impressive showing of skill, and thanx for helping me make my point (since Im @work atm, and thus lack the ability to provide scans of it myself) of showing something much moreso than we've seen from Yat so far.

I said is that Priest could operate independently from the Battery. NOT Hal. Hal still needed his personal Battery to recharge his energy stores. All Priest did is train Hal how to use his ring in other sectors of space, without needing the main Battery to reprogram it to work in those areas (as it had done every other time before.) That's it.

Yo.

thats still wat he did, so even if U didnt SAY IT the fact remains he accomplished it. he DID end up showing Hal that he could operate the Ring despite not having it configured properly, and we DID end up seeing Hal tapping directly into the GE (which was due to Priests manipulations.)

and *yes I am dangit!!*, as Priest has as small an amount of showings as he has (hes shown in wat.....6 or 7 comics MAX, including the 1 where hes found dead), but he still far more impressive than the guy who got a Will -generator in his body and still got punked (BADLY!) by baby Mongul...........

so dont judge me, durnit!! its not my fault......

Yo.

*takes the 'Fanboy" -dig & wears it on his shoulder*

Ima wear this like the COMPLIMENT Im sure it was intended to be........SO THERE!!

also, facts're facts, and wat Priest did is simply more impressive than anything Yats done GL-wise (and thats not alot.)
