Damborgson
Welcome one and all, to the greatest tournament in all the heavens.

https://i.imgur.com/t6dfwx4.jpg

This purpose of this tournament is to prove once and for all, who is the top dog hero.

The pool to pick from:

Thor

Superman (no extra sundipping)

Flash (Wally, Barry or Jay)

Green Lantern (Any of the main 6 human lanterns, at their base levels)

Silver Surfer

Hulk (WWH and below)

Captain Marvel (Shazam)

Orion

Sentry (No molecule man showing, can go void but starts as Golden Sentry and a single death is enough for the match victory)

Dr. Strange

Martian Manhunter

Wonder Woman

Captain Marvel (Female)

Gladiator

Hyperion (Mark Milton)

Aquaman

(Nominate Character under Trans. Superman is an exception due to his relationship to the other heroes.)



All picked because they represent the elite of both companies. (Give or take)

Here's the DA RULES

- Winner by incapacitation (restrained for an unreasonably long period of time, knocked out, otherwise taken out of action, etc.) or death.

- BFR is OFF

- No summoning of tools or outside assistance. Only what is reasonably considered standard gear may be used.

- Prep Time (5 seconds of prep before each match, then both character will hear the "ding" and the fight will begin)

- And for the fun one.....ALL FIGHTS ARE IN CHARACTER. That's right, you'll have to argue as you'd argue in the VS section. Just a lot better.

The room of spirit and time. Essentially a featureless environment with a ring the size of the planet earth. You will start on opposite ends and then find each other.


REWARD

THIS DIC-

A custom signature and the title "the greatest hero"


Any questions?

Which one?

If you mean Spidey vs. Hal, it's perfect, seeing how Hal has been written as a total assclown since 52.

leonidas
thumb up

all the other match ups seem pretty logical, or predictable at least--and at least on the surface, even. then you have spidey randomly kicking gl in the face! bwhahah! for some reason i find that awesome.

MrMind
If I pick dc characters do I get to use all their composite P52/N52 feats, or not?

I mean Wally and Superman are the same version so composite p52/n52 can be used, what about Hal and the Green Lanterns?

DarkSaint85
I love how Spiderman is fighting Kyle Rayner laughing out loud

StiltmanFTW
It's Kyle? Oh.

Is Captain America just tossing Robin by the cape in one hand and blocking Batarangs with his shield in the other?

Is this a closed arena or can the contestant fly in space, etc...?

A lot of people are going to lean towards Surfer and if they do, they are smart for doing it.

To avoid BFR it will have a very high dome on the edge of the atmosphere.

Basically it stays on the planet.

not as playful though. and borg--you have strange listed but he's listed in trans, so i assume he shouldn't be one of the options...?

carver9
When you said WWH, are you referring to Green Scar? Or are you saying anything past WWH cant be used?

MrMind

Strange with 5 min prep is killer

Damborgson
Its 5 second of prep thumb up

And I will make an exception for Strange, just like for Superman.

Damborgson
Originally posted by carver9

Anything WWH and down, and in the interest of being fair to a grounded character, he can take immortal Hulks feats as well.

As long as the entire group doesnt swarm against that idea.

Quick Freeze
Ooo let Carver be immortal

Damborgson
And let me make this clear, these characters may be fighting within character but still at their maximum potential and fighting to win.

Just no out of character actions. Like Darksaint said once, Superman may have the ability to bite someone's head off but he probably wont. Substantiate your claims with clear evidence, etc.

That's a pretty fair call IMO. Yes Strange is ranked at trans, but I think the entities and artifacts he can summon to help him in combat originally played a large part in people perception of him when the list was originally made. Most of the time without all that, he tends to hover around high herald level(which still allows for some pretty powerful feats).

Damborgson
thumb up

You should take Surfer Goober

DarkSaint85
Superman is as of Doomsday Clock?

Damborgson
Yes, Merged Superman, with only that to depend on and no other way to draw excess sunlight into himself to put him above what he'd be capable of doing without it.

DarkSaint85
Sunlight is out, what about other sources?

Say I drafted Hulk, am I allowed to absorb other sources of energy to amp if present on the battlefield (say, if Surfer hit me with radiation?)

Damborgson
You can use Hulk's immortal hulk ability to drain your opponent, and if your opponent somehow accidentally amps you, you can argue for that. But beyond that, no external amping.

BestEverNoob
This sounds really interesting, where do I sign up?

Nah, I don't do real debating about comics anymore. It destroys my ability to enjoy the reading material lol

xJLxKing
I hear you guys need a judgesmile

deathslash
I'm willing to judge

Damborgson
I think we just found 2 thumb up Thank you gentlemen

We have a few tenative but so far the only for sure's are:

Beatboks with Alan Scott

Mr. Mind with Wally West Flash

I have no problem with a small group, but we will need a few more still.

DarkSaint85
Not sure why my BZ thread still doesn't have firm takers mad

If your yalking about that Superman battlzone one you were asking for the normal characters he gets pit against. If you want to step outide the box I'd love to do Hellstrom vs Supes.

That is as a full on Bz with me controlling his powerset and character limitations.

Martian_mind
If this goes ahead, I'll happily rep J'onn.

BestEverNoob
I'll rep Strange.

Damborgson

Alright then, Martianmind takes MMH. thumb up

-------


Bestevernoob....you feel confident enough to be battle zoning already? Or who's sock are you?

Quick Freeze
Gotta start somewhere! I did a team tourney against Khellendros when I was 14 and only on the boards for a few months. I almost won too but only cuz it was based on popular votes and I think I had Superman, Spawn, Spider-Man, and Dark Claw or something , and he had mosty WildStorm characters

Damborgson
Fair enough I suppose...

BestEverNoob
I mean, yeah, I'm new, but it can't hurt to try right?

Damborgson
Agreed. thumb up we'll add Dr. Strange to the lineup of chosen then !

Supermutant
I'll take worthy Thor. You are welcome, Damborgson.

Supermutant
Seems like we need just 1 more to make this a 6 person tourney. If this is going to happen.

Martian_mind
So, is this happening, or...?

EmperorThanos
I can join if you need participants. Do I have to pick from the list or do you guys take suggestions? And can said suggestions be a non comic character.

Also would trans. superman be like planet level? or more

Quick Freeze
I nominate Jesus DS to rep Aquarian and Carver or Hulkster to rep Hulk

Quick Freeze

EmperorThanos
Just ignored lol.

Well if you change your mind I can join wit Silver Surfer.

Damborgson
If you guys are still game I'm game thumb up

Emperor joins as Silver Surfer

Supermutant
A good selection of characters. The matchups should be intriguing.

Quick Freeze
Let me know when I should get my popcorn

beatboks
I'm ready whenever.
Only issues for me will be a couple of holidays in sept and oct.
20th to 28th Sept I'll be i phuket so limited posting

From the 19th of oct to the 26th I'm on a rock the boat cruise with performers like Suzi Quatro, the Sweet, the Angels and a few other 70's 80's recording artists plus a lot of tribute bands like a Rod Stewart show, Ziggy Stardust, blues bros tribute. I'll be drunk and partying the whole week and nowhere near internet. Soany battle I'm in then will be slow forwarned

Martian_mind
I should be good whenever in the coming months, and definitely think we should pounce on this asap, as delays are the deaths of tournaments.

Supermutant
I'm all for getting started asap. Less chance of losing interest, etc.

Damborgson
Perfect, then we've got Beatboks, Mr. Mind, SM, Martian, Emperor, and BestEverNoob thumb up I will start mobilizing the rounds thumb up

Martian_mind
thumb up

Philosophía
If you want/need a judge for any match, let me know.

Damborgson
Of course thumb up Thank you

Damborgson
Okay official Match order:

Damborgson
Yes ! though I have not heard much from him...

Also, remember to review the rules everyone.

abhilegend
I'm available as judge.

MrMind

carver9
A lot of character choices are not picked for this BZ. Im surprised.

You had your chance to pick it, still can if you want

Did my opponent post?

beatboks

Hmmm so obviously you sent yours in, Supermutant would be another of the 3 and I sent mine after damborg said he had 3.

Logically then only one of us had an opponent show up for the first round.

Martian mind and Supermutant are the only competitors I've seen active on KMC since the matchups were made, So my guess would be its your match that plays out.

Nice OP.

beatboks
Can I pick it, or can I pick it??

Damborgson
Sorry for the forfeit victories guys....

Anyways, Supermutant will face Beatboks to advance to the finals, to face whoever wins between Martian and Emperor.

Good luck everyone, you're all wonderful and full of sexual vigor.

beatboks
Pretty lucky for me since I rely so heavily on my image folders on CV and with new rules about full page scans over there and my acc locked until i delete all the full page scans out of the 13000+ images I had (down to a little over 8k now) I had to bleedin google every scan even though I have most. Because add to that my damn photobucket acc is locked for too many images

Supermutant
lol @ no shows OPs by Damborgson. So when does my match with beatboks start?

DarkSaint85
Jeez. Flash no show...

MrMind
sorry boys, got tied up by life

Supermutant
When MrMind found out that he was facing Thor, he wrote his OP so fast that it got trapped in the speed force.

So in keeping with this, I'll send you mine in a rush onnthe 30th 😜

Of couse simce were 12 hrs ahead down under just scraping in

Gives me a week to do something about my scan issue

beatboks
Ironically I think we each drew the one character opponent we were most concerned with in this for the battles they didnt shown up for.

Tourney gods were kind I guess

Is there a deadline for my next post

Damborgson
Yes man, this match should conclude by the 30th ! So rebuttal will be posted in the thread, and your final post will be sent to me. All before the 30th.

beatboks
Damborg
Did you get the first half of my write up?

Also are all links working for you? They were for me but that doesnt seem to mean they always do for others

Damborgson
Yes, as of now it works. But just be wary of comicvine links, they tend to break !

Supermutant
you get my one sentence OP, damborgson?

Damborgson
Yes, you're golden bro.

Supermutant
The ongoing match has about 3 days and some change for two posts. I guess that's part of the strategy lol.

beatboks
Damborg. Do you want me to resend my complete write up with the fix for the last few links as one complete post or are you ok with that bit to overlay?

Damborgson
I wouldn't mind just one, clean write up if you can man.

Emperor and Martian seem to have bailed so you know...you to might be the final laughing out loud

Martian_mind
I'll have my reply in today. It's been a long weekend here, so I've just been distracted living it up.

My rebuttal should only be a reply to the opener right? And then my closing should be a rebuttal to his most recent rebuttal. Or can I reply to that to before my closing?

DarkSaint85
You can reply to both if you want. As long as it's all in one post and not over 10k characters.

Damborgson
Ah just in time to prove me wrong ! Apologies gentleman.

And the date isnt strict, if you need more time just let me know.

Supermutant
We might beat you guys to the finish. Depending on beatboks, my part wont take very long.

Sorry to be a pain damborg but you didnt post my complete OP.

Instead of postimg the complete rewrite where ALL image links were imjur and it included my first half of the opener pmd you a while before, you posted the second half of the original 2 pms

The one I sent to you on the 28th after asking if you wanted a full rewrite

So none of my Thor stuff was included

When is my match with bb over, and who are the judges? By the way Galan or Pr could easily delete BB partial OP in the thread thereby clearing up clutter.

Supermutant
Galan took care of it.

You guys have until the 8th of August thumb up

And I am working with the judge situation, taking into consideration previously specified preferences for you two as to who you would not like to judge.
