Mutant League 2010 Game 3: FiddleFaddle & justinkos91 vs. ChaZ X

[mattbib]

Greetings, fight fans! Welcome to today's first match!

As this is our first week, a few words on voting:

Participants and spectators may vote in each match. All voters should use the poll included in each match thread, and vote solely on a team's strategy and defense. The voting polls will remain open for 24-hours. Participants may vote for themselves. NOTE: To prevent unfair ballot-stuffing, only votes from posters with 50 or more posts will be counted. Additionally, votes from posters with matching IP addresses will be disqualified.

Participants may question each other's strategies and offer retorts during a match so long as they stay civil. Spectators may also question the participants. However explanations may not contradict or embellish the posted strategy. Voting should not be based on any potential that characters possess or on any other moves that a voter might want to interject on their own. All voters should feel free to comment on why they've voted for a specific team.

To maintain fairness across the board, teams with two or more participants will only be allowed one vote in any match. If more than one member of a team votes in a match, only the first vote from that team will be counted.

Additionally, while encouraging friends or family to vote in the tournament is allowed, encouraging others to vote specifically for you is against the rules and is grounds for disqualification. Friends and family are expected to read both strategies and make a decision based on what is presented; not based on allegiance to a particular participant. All voting should be done without bias.

And now on to our fight...

Our match song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewRjZoRtu0Y (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewRjZoRtu0Y)
Let's get ready to rumble! *DING*

Part 1: I get one down in a second if you wait

- Hellion traps Mimic in a telekinetic bubble, leaving him unable to move.(Simultaneous)
- Blink displaces Madrox for a fraction of a second, the effect taking a toll on his body; she basically does THIS (http://i853.photobucket.com/albums/ab94/justin_kos91/BlinkDisplacement1.jpg)(Simultaneous)
* Blink did the same thing to Rogue in the Age of Apocalypse, taking a toll on her, knocking her down for a minute or so...
- Tempo boosts speed of Rogue and Kimura to super speeds until they reach their targets.(Simultaneous)
- A speed enhanced Rogue rushes over to Madison Jeffries and absorbs him until he is knocked out, which shouldn't take too long.
http://i853.photobucket.com/albums/ab94/justin_kos91/Photoshop/RogueSmoochesJeffries.jpg
- A speed enhanced Kimura rushes over to Bishop and basically takes him on in hand to hand combat, Kimura being skilled in that area, and Bishop, well he's no Sebastian Shaw.
- Hellion drops his telekinetic bubble around Mimic and then telekinetically grips a stunned Jamie Madrox, leaving him unable to move, meaning no pesky dupes. (Simultaneous)
- Blink displaces Mimic,like she did to Madrox early on in this match, before he can make his move.(Simultaneous)
- At the moment Mimic is displaced, Tempo freezes time around him. (Simultaneous)
- Rogue uses Madison Jeffries' powers to disassemble Bishop's arm and any firearms on him and reassembles them into gauntlets.(Simultaneous)

-SUMMED UP (http://i853.photobucket.com/albums/ab94/justin_kos91/Micro%20Mini%20Battle/Strat_1.jpg)-

Defeated: Madison Jeffries
Disabled: Bishop, Mimic, Madrox

Part 2: We pack and deliver like UPS trucks

- Blink teleports Kimura on to Mimic.
- Kimura places Mimic in a chokehold with one arm, meaning no air can enter. She places her other hand over his eyes so he can not see and he can not blast through her hand.
- Tempo places the time around Mimic back to normal. At the moment he is returned, he is no longer displaced, but still stunned.
- Blink teleports the Mimic and Kimura to the ground, assuming they're airborne. If not, then somewhere concrete.
- Kimura slams Mimic's head into the ground, Utopia style (http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o296/justinkos91/MimicWhelp.jpg), knocking him out.
* Note: This takes place at the same time as the fight below, so Madrox would be out by then, meaning no Madrox for Mimic to... mimic.

Meanwhile...
(This takes place at the same time as the above...)

- Hellion drops the telekinetis around Madrox and takes to the air.
- Rogue has the metal tentacles from the gauntlets, formerly in Bishop's arm, reach out and pull Madrox towards her.
- Hellion slams into Bishop from the air at high speeds. Basically, he does THIS (http://i853.photobucket.com/albums/ab94/justin_kos91/HellionSlam1.jpg).
- Rogue absorbs Madrox and drains him until he is unconscious, which shouldn't take too long. Omega Red, eat your heart out (R.I.P.)
http://www.gifmania.sg/comic/xmen/omega-red/OmegaRed_lowstrong.gif
- Rogue then creates multiple dupes of herself and dogpiles the grounded Bishop, draining him of the energy he absorbed (She did something similar to this to Guido in AoA) and his powers, taking him out.
*Note: Hellion slammed down on Bishop using telekinetic energy. Sure, Bishop was taken down physically, but he can absorb the telekinetic energy, in spite of the physical part, which is why Rogue finishes him off.

-SUMMED UP (http://i853.photobucket.com/albums/ab94/justin_kos91/Micro%20Mini%20Battle/Strat_2.jpg)-

Defeated: Mimic, Bishop, Madrox
Victorious: Rogue, Tempo, Blink, Kimura, Hellion

Part 3: So, uh, no funny business
A.K.A. A summary of our match...

- Blink temporarily displaces Madrox. Hellion traps Mimic in a telekinetic bubble.
- This leaves an opening for our other 2 opponents, Tempo boosts Rogue and Kimura's speed, they take on Madrison Jeffries and Bishop.
- Blink temporarily displaces Mimic, throwing him off, Hellion traps Madrox in a telekinetic bubble, no movement for him meaning no dupes.
- Tempo freezes a stunned Mimic. Kimura beats on Bishop. Rogue drains Madison Jeffries and uses his powers to disassemble Bishop's arm and form a weapon for herself.
- Kimura is teleported on to Mimic to blind and immobilize him. Tempo unfreezes time, he is taken by surprise. Blink ports Kimura and Mimic somewhere hard and Kimura takes him out.
* Basically, we surprised Mimic, meaning he didn't see what hit him. Displacing him for a little bit took him out of the battle in a blink, meaning that even if it was a short amount of time, it took away any powers he mimicked, whether it be one of our members or one of his. Freezing him meant no opportunity to mimic someone else, because he's frozen and can't adapt/move when he's frozen in time. By the time he was released from being frozen, Madrox would have been taken down by Rogue by then, seeing the Rogue/Hellion fight took place at the same time as taking down Mimic, so slamming his head would mean no duplicate Mimics.
- Hellion and Rogue switch opponents, Rogue taking care of Madrox swiftly, and Hellion slowing down Bishop.
- Rogue finishes off Bishop.

“What do you want out of life?!”

Just Prior to the match the noble heroes of our Group Therapy…uh Group had been discussing what they really wanted out of life.

Mimic, in one of his more stable moods today, talked about wanting to be a Hero, a real one not just manufactured by Osborn’s spin doctors. Wanting to show people what he could do if he really put his mind to it. That he could be the best.

Madison talked about wanting to find a way to relate to real people more then machines.

Madrox avoided the question saying “What is best in Life, Conan?” Stomps his foot, Dupe says “To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women “

Bishop just mutters something about wanting to kill the Mutant Messiah and if he doesn’t they’ll all be sorry…

1st round

Mimic- Immediately upon entering the battlefield, Calvin knows what he has to do. He Psi-Blast Tempo, Simultaneously Mimicking Madrox and Snapping fingers on both hands, Producing Mimic(2) who Psi- Blasts Blink( telepathically tracking her first if she somehow teleports faster then thought) And Mimic(3) Psi Blasts Hellion, bypassing any shields Hellion might have put up. Mimic(1) Takes to the Air, Mimic (2) Erects an Ice Wall to Block or at least Blunt any attacks by Hellion (if he gets any off) and keep Kimura at a distance. Mimic (3) stays with the rest of the group, covering them with skin tight TK shields, to keep Rogue from touching them, and waiting to act as back up if needed

Madison Jeffries- Seeing plenty of materials to work with, smiles slightly and reaches out with his powers, Using all surrounding materials (Lampposts, Cell phones, Ipods, Laptops, etc.) Madison constructs a simple robot and has it attempt to distract or at least block rogue and then shoot tasers made from its wires into her, shocking her unconscious

Madrox- In order to lighten the mood before a bit of the gratuitous violence, he start snapping his fingers Rhythmically and walking toward Kimura West Side Story (Jets vs. Sharks) style , Multiplying as he goes, and dog piles on Kimura. He sends any dupes who don’t feel like fighting out for crowd control.

Bishop- Mutters to himself about how this is all a waste of his time, but he has to earn trust somehow, Guards Madison and protects their rear flank. Shoots any opponent who attempts to teleport or otherwise get close to team.

Rogue- Hindered or rendered unconscious by the products of modern society, Possibly shot by Bishop.
Blink- Brain Fried or Possibly shot by Bishop
Kimura- Drowning in an ever growing sea of Madri
Tempo- Brain Fried
Hellion- Brain Fried

Contingencies:

If Any of his team mates are downed Mimic(3) mimics them and takes over their jobs.

If Mimic is taken down before He can make Dupes. Bishop Jumps in front of any shots Hellion Makes and then blasts his teammates with the energy, starting with Tempo unless she’s already down, then Rogue, Blink etc. If all are covered, blasts ground beneath Hellion’s shield. Madison would construct a Sonic Emitter to crash Hellion’s , Blink’s and Tempo’s concentration and either Bishop, the Robot or the Madri would take Them out. With Gun, Tasers and Shaolin Kung Fu, Respectively

If Rogue Takes one of her own Team out to absorb their power, the attack meant for them is then transferred to her and the Robot attacks their De-powered Butts

If Rogue is somehow able to get a hold of Madrox and start multiplying. So does Mimic and he attacks her with long range powers and flies out of her range. If she goes for any other of his teammates He can pick up the slack of what they were supposed to do.

Madison can also bind Kimura if Madrox is unable to “entertain her”

If Blink Teleports her team, Mimic can track telepathically and then shut blink down using the same power.

If Blink tries to Teleport My Team, Mimic can then copy her powers and use them to negate any
Advantage it might have given her

2nd round

Mimic- Knocks Rogue out with an Optic Blast, unless she has cover then he uses a Psi-Blast, Smiles to the Crowd. Mimic (2) Psi Blasts Kimura and waves to the Crowd. Mimic(3) If he hasn’t had to step up and back anyone up, shrugs to the crowd and winks.

Madrox(s)-- Continue Crowd control once Kimura is down

Madison Jeffries - Once Opposing team is down, returns everything he can to it’s proper form and returns them to owners. Except Tempo’s helmet, which he thinks would make a nice Plant Holder

Bishop- Still muttering and looking to shoot someone if he can get away with it

Rogue- Knocked out one way or the other
Blink- Still Brain Fried or shot
Kimura- Brain Fried
Hellion- Brain fried
Blink - Brain Fried

Contingencies:
If no Mimics around, Robot Decks Rogue or Keeps trying to Zap her. Madison whips up restraints to hold Kimura (and Rogue if she somehow gets past the Robot and Bishop trying to shoot her)
3rd round

Mimic(s) Sign Autographs
Madrox Entertains crowd with Stand Up, Juggling, and Card Tricks
Madison Jeffries Upgrades people’s Techno widgets for Free
Bishop… Stands around looking angry and bored.

Final Analysis:
Calvin had a good day.
Madison made some more Facebook Friends.
Jamie Goofed around, didn’t have to take life too seriously.
Lucas…was just perked up by the prospect of shooting someone and not getting villainized for it

[Avenger08]

Some problems with Justinkos & FF.
Would a telekinetic bubble make it impossible for Mimic to absorb powers?
And doesnt he have the powers of the original X-Men? Including Jean Grey, who has telekinesis which is extremely powerful? So couldnt the bubble b escaped from.

However, it is a quick and simple way to stop him quick, and too much of ChaZ X's strategy relies on him.

Ill take time to vote so you two can defendd yourselves. But great strategies both of you.

And ChaZ X, i think you just got the worst deal possible.
Going up against Justinkos in round 1 is like a six year old girl fighting a the champion gladiator of Rome.
If you win, good god you'll be a force to be reconed with.

Only if countered. From what I read, ChaZ X did not use telekinesis. and while I'm here, I might as well argue my points. Seeing Mimic pulled the whole duplication method, as predicted, Hellion's move was meant to telekinetically grip Mimic, preventing him from moving. Blink also displaced Madrox meaning for a few seconds, he couldn't be mimicked, even if so, Mimic would be telekinetically gripped making the multi-Mimic move irrelevant.

[Brian M.]

I think the way Chaz uses him team is pretty good, the combo of mimic, bishop and multiple man is pretty damn good. Yes it's been done before, but it's pretty good.

Also a TK bubble I don't believe would stop Mimic from absorbing powers, even if it did, he still has the O5 powers.

O5 trumps all.

Chaz gets my vote.

These are good points.

It was a few minutes ago when i read it so i may have forgotten some, but doesnt he use a psi blast. Ive never really been that sure on it, and it is vague in my memory at the moment, but doesnt that have a physical effect? If so, could that not effectively punture the telekinetic bubble around himself? God my memory is rusty so im not positive how that particularly works. But ill give Chaz a chance to respond

[ChaZ X]

I'm at work so I won't be able to respond much, but here's how I see it.

I TK Bubble would not stop Mimic from moving his hands unless it was specified that they enclosed his fingers. It also may make the bubble crowded but I personally think He could still possibly dupe, albeit very uncomfortably. Psi Blasts as i understand them should not be stopped by TK otherwise Hellion couldn't be hurt by telepathy when he had his shields up, which is just not the case. Also I would imagine since it was his very first though, to PSi-Blast Tempo, even if her first use of ability is at the exact same time as his, I think He knocks her out at least at the same time she first uses her ability.

Admittedly none of the Physical Moves Mimic did after his psiblasts would work, since he is in a bubble, at least until he blasts Hellion. I also had contingencies if Mimic was taken out. Were they read? Especially since Mimics taking out of Tempo at the very least should have still happened, so no speed/time effects, they should have been able to deal with their opponents

Also Bishop was a Soldier and a cop from a Post apocalyptic future, He can fight hand to hand. He didn't in this instance but I'm just saying for future reference.

That all Being said, You do have a damn fine team there Just and Fiddle. They are tough, while you did have a good strat, I definitely think I might at least have a shot here.

[RickyD410]

Woah, both strategies are excellent. I'm leaning towards Brigada X right now, but I really like the contingencies that ChaZ X used. I shall ponder longer....

[Justin K.]

Mimic's telekinesis would not have worked on Madison Jeffries and Bishop. The speed boost from Tempo only made it quicker for Rogue and Kimura to reach their targets, but that's their intention nonetheless and was not necessarily needed.

Main point, Blink displaces Mimic, throwing him off and taking him out of the main timestream foir a short couple seconds, as provided in my strategy. Blink displaces Madrox, no Madrox to mimic for a short time, and by then, Blink and Tempo would have taken care of Mimic and Hellion would have Madrox trapped. Blink moves quickly.

[Avenger08]

God, kinda leaning toward Chaz still.

I'm liking the pairing of characters as welll, and also, it is a solid point that a bubble around Mimic would not stop him unless it was actually around his hand, which is not specified. So that enables Mimic's possible duplication, which enables the strategy of Chaz to continue.

So, i gotta give this one to Chaz.

Sorry Justin (but still, we all know you're going to pwn us all eventually in one way or another, so perhaps thisll just make it more interesting)

Actually, didnt Chaz say this was his first league experience? If not, sorry, but if so, DAMN.

[SunfireX]

I'm having a hard time deciding but I'm leaning towards Brigada because they take out Mimic first who is by far the greatest threat.

[Anura]

this is really cool, I've been lurking in the background for a while reading and laughing at the forum, but I had to register to vote here, it's a really cool game. I loved the mimic/multiple man pair, that was really cool, wish they'd do something as cool in the comics

[ChaZ X]

Finally home from work and the forums are working agin, YES!!

Just pointing out, I had contingencies for dealing with Rogue and Kimura. Madison made a robot to attack rogue and would have made restraints to deal with Kimura and Bishop would have shot either of them if they got close, likely no effect on Kimura I'll admit but Rogue would be down, as long as they weren't moving at super speed, which I still contend they wouldn't be.

Also the only thing I could find about Mimic's limits on his ability to mimic powers were that once he was more then a mile away from who he was mimicking, the powers would start to fade. Fade, Not just give out. So I still contend he would be able to use the power at least for the Second it takes to snap his fingers and think a thought that is a psiblast. So I see it, Yeah Hellion Puts Mimic in the Bubble, but that same second Mimic Psi-Blasts Tempo( so no speed tricks) and makes two dupes. Uncomfortable in a small space yes but still happens. And they Psi Blast Hellion and Blink Respectively. Thus releasing them. OR if Mimic is unable to do the rest after taking out Tempo I had Madison's Sonic Emitter to Crash Hellion, Blink's and if she was still awake, Tempo's concentration and use of powers. Blink did Displace MAdrox so He could not DUpe at that point, but With Hellion and Blink Down, he's free to Dogpile on Kimura, Or barring that Jeffries will have her restrained. And Rogue would either be knocked out, shocked out, or shot by Bishop.

Sorry if I'm getting too ranty here. I just worry people aren't seeing it how I would, and the Sever Crashes are killing my Mind and...whew deep breath.

And yes this is my first time doing Mutant League or any of the Leagues actually. I really hope people aren't voting against me just because they don't know me or because they do know Just or Fiddle( who I've heard nothing from so far I believe). Or because they hate my team because they fear I will be Cheap with Them. I swear i was trying to include not being a total douche in my strategy, LOL. In truth, it's likely Mimic could have Psi-Blasted several people without duping, seeing as his Psi-Powers are Mimicked from Professor X and Jean Grey, But hey I was trying not to be too overwhelmingly cheap. SIlly Me.

[ChaZ X]

I finally got My Banner!

[Justin K.]

The way I see the battle:

- Blink displaces Madrox, no powers for Mimic to... mimic, because Madrox is temporarily displaced out of time, but only for a short time. Mimic is telekinetically gripped as well.
- The battlefield is not a big one, so the boost would be a quick one, if Mimic were to telepathically take out Tempo, Rogue would reached Madison by then, and Kimura would be beating the tar out of Bishop nonetheless.

*So far, Tempo and Madison Jeffries are eliminated.
** I don't think Madison could resist Rogue anyways :wink:
http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o296/justinkos91/JeffriesCrush.jpg

Reason why this was added (Logic)
http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o296/justinkos91/RogueandJeffries.jpg

Rogue did drain him after all, that's what was intended...

- Seeing Mimic (1) in ChaZ X's strategy was the one to attack Tempo, and no dupe Mimics were around to do the same to the others, because Madrox was displaced temporarily before Mimic was, the rest of my team remains up. Hellion lowers the shield, traps Madrox, and Blink displaces Mimic, Blink being faster than Mimic. He wouldn't be able to shield his other team members. Mimic would be down for a couple minutes, the displacement having an effect on AoA Rogue when Blink pulled off the move either way in Age of Apocalypse.
- While that happens, Rogue has already disassembled Bishop's arm, made a weapon, and she drags away Madrox, Hellion already lowering his shield and physically knocking down Bishop.
- Blink would have teleported Kimura on to Mimic and have her take him out physically, Madrox being drained and out.

I don't necessarily need Tempo to stop Mimic, but it was a nice setback.

- What's left is the dogpile on Bishop, which should be easy.

[ChaZ X]

Look I don't wanna get into a big back and forth, Dude. Especially about who's faster then Who (not including powers) Blink's faster the Mimic? Who's to say? He does have the abilities of several people with pretty good reflexes and one with super agility. But Whatever. People are gonna vote on what strat they thought was better. AT least hopefully. I really just don't want to argue the same points over and over, or having people vote for me no matter what i put up just cause they like me or don't like the other guy, and if that's the only way I'd win, then I guess I'd be okay not winning.

I think Mine's better, you think your's is better, we're just not gonna see eye to eye on this. While I Want to Beat You and feel I should win this match. You're a Veteran and I'm New. so Not a bad showing so far at least.

BTW pretty sure Madison's not into Rogue, He's Into Danger. Yeah think about that and reread your comic you clipped from again. ;)

[Waterlily]

I haven't made my decision, I have a few things to consider first. At the beginning of the round Hellion is grabbing Mimic and preventing him from moving. Completely.

-I was under the impression that Hellion can't control his powers very well, not for the fine details, anyway. He can't lift a paperclip without tearing apart the danger room. So, while I can believe he'd be able to grab Mimic in a bubble, I can't picture him doing it with such fine precision.

When I picture him trying to keep Mimic's hands still, I picture him ripping Mimic apart in moments - it'd win the fight for you, but it's not what you have detailed.

Also, even if Hellion does have that level of control, doesn't Mimic mindblast him shortly after he's been caught? It sounds like he would get free while Kimura was fighting with Bishop.


Usually the Mimic loses his duplicated abilities once out of range of the owner, but due to the length of time spent with them
wiki reference, but it meshes with what I already knew

-When Blink time displaces Madrox, it's only been a fraction of a second since Mimic was out of range. I don't believe that Mimic has to wait for powers to be used in order to copy them, he just needs to be in range.



But Blink owns, so I'm on the fence.

[Global Honored]

I buy the Blink move to throw off Mimic/Madrox well enough to get things rolling. As for Chaz X, you have a tough team and a really good strat, new guy or not...your team is a force especially with the Mimic/Madrox combo. Though I would fear it becoming "cheap" feeling and repetitive if it continues to dominate your strats. No one likes the deus ex machina. As far as the popularity factor, well...that is just something that is going to happen or it is not, there is really nothing to do about it except become more liked, popular and known around the boards in time. There is no use to complain about it. No one wants to hear it anyways. If your strat is solid enough and convincing enough, it shouldn't matter who is a more likable poster....and besides...justinkos and Fiddle are swell and all....but *shooosh* little secret...nobody likes them:wink:

Good match guys.

[End of Time]

This version of Blink isn't the same version as the AoA Blink...

we don't even know if this version is even capable of doing what she did...

[worstblogever]

This version of Blink isn't the same version as the AoA Blink...

we don't even know if this version is even capable of doing what she did...

Actually, they did specify it's AoA, Exiles Blink. Which I think means you have the currently lethal 616 version.

[End of Time]

Actually, they did specify it's AoA, Exiles Blink. Which I think means you have the currently lethal 616 version.

Oh that's why I picked her... she's the killing kind.

So it IS the AoA Blink... I thought they did their best to hint and tease that it WASN'T her...

[Valeria Kementari]

I wonder why Exiles Blink was available and not Wanda from Exiles :(

[Charlotte DeBlr]

I wonder why Exiles Blink was available and not Wanda from Exiles :(

Cause Blink has crossovered with 616 mainstream, and Exiles Wanda has never entered mainstream X-verse?

[Azure]

Chaz X made great use of the Fantomex Rule.

[Justin K.]

I noticed a person with less than 100 points voted for our opponent. Would that vote not count and still make us tied?

[mattbib]

Andromeda Anders and Anura's votes do not count.

Congratulations to FiddleFaddle & Justinkos91, who advance to Game 10 where they'll face the winner of Game 4 next Tuesday.

Great job also to ChaZ X who moves to the lower bracket where next Tuesday he'll face the loser of Game 4.

[Justin K.]

Good job ChaZ X, you put up a helluva a fight and give us more reason to up our game.
Best of luck to you in future matches.

It was a close one.

[worstblogever]

Good job ChaZ X, you put up a helluva a fight and give us more reason to up our game.
Best of luck to you in future matches.

It was a close one.

I'll say. Up by one, minus to votes means he loses by one. The little known "must have 50 posts (I think that's the minimum) to vote" rule. Which, I believe exists to deter people from swinging the voting via calling folks who don't have CBR accounts you know, and getting them to make one strictly to pad the vote. Not that that's what Chaz X had goin' here. It's just the logic behind that rule.

[ChaZ X]

AGH! I looked at the poll when i first got on here and was like WTF I won? SWEE...wait what? AWW lol Dang. Well yeah at least it was close.

Should I still thank the ones who voted for me who didn't count, or hate them for giving me false hope? LoL

Thanks to all who voted for me, sincerely. And please someone else take out Justinkos before I get to the finals, I don't wanna have to try to do this again. Haha

Good Game Guys. Wish I'd considered the Bubble

[ChaZ X]

Can't Andromeda's vote still counts since they've at least been on since last year? LoL totally kidding, unless that works then let's go to a Tie Breaker! I pick one Member you pick one member, SUDDEN DEATH!!!

[Global Honored]

Good job Chaz X as that was a heck of a battle and grats Justinkos/Fiddle. As for the two "non-voters," I think you should hate on them personally for psyching you out on the results, it's only fair. Wow...that was crazy close. Can't wait to see you bring vengeance next week.

[Justin K.]

Chaz X made great use of the Fantomex Rule.

What is the Fantomex rule?


I pick one Member you pick one member, SUDDEN DEATH!!!

Only if I pick one of your members and you pick one of mine, to make it interesting. :evilsmile:

Nonetheless, still a good match. You still got next round to try again at least.

No offense to Justinkos, and I do know it is a rule, but that is such a bummer. Honestly I saw it and was like "Holy $#!^, a guy whose never been in a league before just beat like, the champion leaguer!"

Im really sorry Chaz, but really well done.

God damn it, I have to fight you...again.

LOL. Our last strategy was terrible, we had forgotten to write it so Talisman had to put something together in like 10 minutes!

I didn't even bother with HouseSolo, I knew if I bsed it he would tear it to shreds.

No offense to Justinkos, and I do know it is a rule, but that is such a bummer. Honestly I saw it and was like "Holy $#!^, a guy whose never been in a league before just beat like, the champion leaguer!"

Im really sorry Chaz, but really well done.

Appreciate it man, Glad to at least have gotten close, but more bummed cause I got faked out. Hey you guys who got DQ'd, yeah you, post more! need like 50+ posts from each of you before my next match! lol j/k

Damn Bubble! I still contend if I had thought about the possibility and had a defense, I'd have totally won, there wouldn't have been a leg to stand on. Just never see Hellion doing Bubbles... lol good strat though Just. Btw is Fiddle actually with you or only in name?

I got lucky in Avengers League, against him and everyone in general. That was just luck.

Honestly, I barely know much about the Avengers.

Yeah, I kind of remember that. I know information about certain individuals, but I'm not sure I would want to compete in that League.

It's a telekinesis thing. If he can reshape the telekinetic energy to be used offensively, why not defense?

Thanks, yours was tricky to argue too.
FidFad is with me, he helped me write the strat.

That was just our of pure boredom. I wanted to be eliminated early on.

Mutant League, I wanna go further, I know more about the X-characters.

I am honestly more excited about DC League, I already have it all planned out. Also, I am very surprised you didn't go for Tarot!

Rogue was our #1 choice. If Tarot was around, we would have recruited her, but she was someone else's first choise, so...

Pssha, he's being generous, I barely helped. I'm totes the reason we lost. I'm gunna try harder not to bring him down.

But we didn't lose. You're being too harsh on yourself.

What is the latest on the DC league possibilities? A lot of us are super pumped about it.


Don't discount Fiddle, FF's like the master strategist hiding in the shadows....disfigured but heinously brilliant.

[ChaZ X]

I'd be down for a DC league just someone PM if it happens in time for me to join
