DarkCrawler’s Post #1.
Debating for the characters All-Star Superman and The Keeper
Good luck to opposing team, and thanks to Batdude and judges for participating and allowing this match to be. 😄
Soooooo, here it is. The finals have started and we have seen the plans of other team.
What is extremely glaring though, is the misconceptions they have made about lot of things. I’m going address them in my first post.
1. The stealth of our team. – AKA why their whole battle plan went down the drain.
This is something that tells me that Digi and Scoobs did not read our plan very thoroughly. In the first and final moments of prep, our team was shielded from every possible form of detection, and I mean everything. Our psychic shielding is to such degree that even the cosmic awareness of entities like Galactus and Eon can’t notice us.
Think about it.
Galactus, the MASTER of power cosmic and the cosmic awareness that comes with it isn’t able to notice us. Eon, the Lord of Time, who has basically the most powerful cosmic awareness in the history of Marvel Universe isn’t able to notice us.
This, however was not our whole stealth. We ALSO had Keeper create a shield that redirects every form of energy from us. As the master of Quantum Bands, who is able to control ALL energy types in the universe, he literally did so, and thus we can’t be seen through any sort of sight. The vacuum we created around us also made it so that we will be completely silent too.
As the last touch of our stealth, we shrunk down to the size of an atom.
There is no way, no way for the other team to notice us. And we can teleport all around the battlefield. So the hammer plan, the board control – nothing will work on us. We will be deciding the matchups and when the battle starts. However, even if we were completely unshielded, their attacks would STILL be completely ineffective. Here is why.
-------------------------------------------------
2. Warlock and the boards.
This was one of the biggest things that were…well, wrong. They say that because of the Soul Link Warlock and Keeper have shared, Warlock can control them. This is true….IF Keeper would let him. He doesn’t. They have zero proof that Warlock could control the board over Keeper – the boards are part of HIM. The ONLY scan they posted to “prove” this is where Warlock controls board over Surfer…WHO IS UNCONCIOUS!
The sheer idea that Warlock would somehow just usurp the control from Keeper is just ridicolous. They have nothing to prove this. Warlock may do something like this if Keeper isn’t paying any attention to them, but while he is? Not going to work. The boards will not just leave Keeper “like that”. As long as we are paying attention to them, stay in our control. I give you straight quote from Surfer himself.

“But the board and I are one, formed by Galactus by the same source. Though the Stranger’s powers are awesome, I can use the power cosmic to recreate a part of me!”
Warlock isn’t taking over. By a mile. As cool as Warlock is, he isn’t taking over the boards by their rightful creator and owner.
However, by attempting this, Warlock just has revealed himself to us. As Infinity Gauntlet #6 shows us, Nebula notices Warlock as soon as he touches the Gauntlet:

In THIS particular case, they were foolish enough to actually try to take over a part of Keeper. Which means as soon as Warlock tries to do that (and fails in it), we know where he is. And what is even better, is that like they so graciously reminded us, Keeper and Warlock have shared souls, so we KNOW he has such ability.
-------------------------------------------------
3. The magic-negating hammer whirlwind.
This one isn’t going to work either. I give you a hint.
http://img2.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/bea4c87b10.jpg
That is Champion of the Universe, teleporting the hammer away easily. Now, as you know, in the prep time, we gave our characters insanely potent teleporting ability.

And well, like you saw, Thor’s hammer can be teleported away effortlessly.
So, as soon as the hammer leaves Thor’s hand (or even if it is in Thor’s hand), any of our characters (Let’s say All-Star Superman) will just teleport it to the edge of the universe. We all know that the hammer will return, but it takes it second to get back to Thor’s hand even from relatively small distance, we will be sending it trillions of light years away. Even IF it would come back in time, we will just teleport it again. And again. And…you get the idea.
With the reaction speeds our teams possess, this will be effortless, and there is no way the other team will block it.
So, through the whole duration of the battle, Thor will not possess his hammer. This not only means that he will be severely weakened, but also means that our magic buffs will stay.
-------------------------------------------------
4. The Uni-Power.
This one was a nice idea, I give them that.
There is still misconception here too…they seem to think that Uni-Power increases EVERYTHING in the host fifty times…
they’re still dealing with Thor x50 + Surfer x25.
When in fact, the bio they THEMSELVES provided states that it increased NOTHING MORE then strength!
http://www.marveldirectory.com/individuals/c/captainuniverse.htm
The Uni-Power amplifies STRENGHT about fifty times Thus if a person can normally lift (press) 150 pounds, he or she would now be able to lift approximately 7,500 pounds.
So no, we won’t be dealing with ALL their powers being fifty times more powerful, just their strength. The other powers MIGHT somewhat increase when they are combined with the Uni-Power-given abilities, but strength is the only one that actually increases FIFTY times. The bio they themselves posted states this very clearly, and so do comics. Spider-Man, for example was far from being fifty times better in all his abilities.
This also means that Adam Warlock will get half of Surfer’s power...and unless the Uni-Power suddenly can split in half (and it can’t…), he isn’t getting any upgraded strength either. And Thor also has only 25x Surfer’s strength, and half of his other power combined with Uni-Power.
And strength alone isn’t enough to win this tourney, and their extra powers we already possess…to greater degree (as shown by their own scans from Captain Universe: Silver Surfer, Power Cosmic >>> Uni-Power).
I am not ending here, though. It is obvious fact that Uni-Power CAN be absorbed from their hosts, and this has been done multiple times. Here are few just from the top of my head:

In the second one, the guy’s control over energy kept Uni-Power imprisoned. Our team just happens to have the best energy manipulator in the tourney (one of the best in the comics overall)…sentient energy or not, it is still energy and can be absorbed and controlled by a wielder of the Quantum Bands and Power Cosmic.
-------------------------------------------------
5. Summary
So.
We are so stealthed that the other team can’t detect us in any way. We will choose when to attack.
Adam Warlock definitely isn’t controlling our boards over Keeper. Simply impossible.
Mjolnir can’t negate anything because it will get teleported away to the far reaches of the universe.
The Uni-Power doesn’t enhance ALL the powers by 50x. Keeper can also absorb the Uni-Power (in this case Space Phantom) with his insanely superior energy manipulation powers.
Only edge the other team has is strength, really, which doesn’t mean much in this battle.
All energy attacks done to us will only make us stronger.
In next posts we will show some of the different ways we can take the other team out…
