Evangel's Amalgam Tournament Announcement [Sign-Up]
In honor of the new year I will host Evangel's Amalgam Showdown.
The tournament will be a 10 man tournament with each participant choosing three herald-level-or-below beings.
An amalgam is the combination of two or more characters into a single character.
You will be able to choose which characteristics are present in your amalgam.
For example:
Asgardian SuperSurfer
Superman - Body/Powers
Thor - Mind/Powers/Mjolnir
Silver Surfer - Powers/Board
Rules for Characters
Certain powers are banned
1. Absorbing powers that injure the absorbed character (IE., Rogue)
2. Telepathic mind shutdowns (IE., Jean Grey causing a foe to think themsleves into death, or simply pass out)
3. Offensive organic matter manipulation (IE., Sersi turning a foe into a pig)
• Manipulating one's own organic matter to heal, or regenerate lost body parts is acceptable
4. No death touches/stares/blasts/etc (IE., Decay making a foe's body break down)
5. Reality warping (IE., Franklin Richards bending the time-space continuum to suit his will)
6. Character retrieval (IE., Rick Jones using the Destiny Force)
7. Multiplying (IE., the Multiple Man)
8. Time warping (IE., Hourman)
9. On-the-fly adaptation (IE., Doomsday's ability to come back from the dead immune to whatever killed him)
10. Mind/body swapping (IE., Doctor Doom's mind transfer)
11. Mind control (IE., Emma Frost taking over a foe's mind and using him to fight his own team, kill himself, etc.)
• A mental attack on an opponent is allowed though.
12. Power negation/boosting (IE., Fabian Cortez enhancing a mutant)
• This rule extends to anyone who can enhance a character's pre-existing powers or give them new powers entirely
Battle Information
There will be a 24 hour time period for battles. A new thread will be created for each round of the tournament. A poll will be created, and after the 24 hour time period is over, then whoever has the most votes on the poll wins.
Votes must come from board regulars. (No random new guy popping up and voting)
. Battlefield removals are non-existant
Prep-time will consist of three hours on the battlefield
1. To prevent premature fighting, the battlefield is split in two, right down the middle
• The battlefield split makes it impossible for teams to spy on one another via any means
G. The battlefield changes climate/location for every battle, but remains a constant 10 square miles
1. Battlefields are devoid of humans, but retain a natural abundance of common materials and animals
Examples of areas of battle:
• arctic ice field
• barren desert
• deciduous forest
• tropic jungle
• empty cavern
• metropolitan city
• The Moon
• Himalayan mountain range
