TAMI STRAT

Note: All actions will be done at highest speeds possible; each team member is fighting at the peak of their powers and to the best of their abilities, using all of their powers and abilities as needed. All Stars fight as a team, backing each other up as needed. All D-Dumps will be countered, all psychic attacks thwarted. All injuries healed quickly. Links and scans provided during discussion.

Opening Salvo
As the Stars take flight, shields up, Weapons and Staff’s drawn and Defenses up, Bahmut Zero [Meggan Summons] sends a cosmic blast of destruction on Team Cleric. When the dust settles, those on the ground find themselves stuck in a layer of tar thick enough to swallow up an elephant, and wide enough to trap an army [Daniel’s doing]. Also, the Crimson Bands of Cyttorak now bind those caught by Talisman’s spell.

The Psychic Defense Neck Bands each team member of Stars wears [Created by Daniel at the very beginning] blocks out external psychic attacks.

First, and Last Strike

Osiris goes after False Captain Marvel, backed up by Tamiko.
The only thing standing between Osiris and the win is the cursed fruit. Summoning her Water Elemental Dragon, Tamiko disables the Cursed Fruit Power long enough for Osiris’ to beat Marvel down and unconscious using his enhanced powers.

If the Elemental Water Dragon won't stop him, Osiris is fast enough and durable enough to quickly return from any attempted 'Push'. Tamiko would take the lead, attacking Marvel with a powerful Roc Scream, followed by a blast towards the Ocean by the Winds of Watoomb. There, a giant hand of water would grab him from them sky and drag him into the water. where Osiris would finish him off.

Talisman goes after Black Adam.
The Sword of Kamuu in hand, Talisman attacks Adam. Intangibility and her mystic shields protects her from attacks. As a being of magic, Adam should be especially vulnerable to the effects of the Sword of Kamuu. Talisaman uses her considerable magical abilities, plus the spells she learned from the Book of Vishanti to weaken Adam and defeat him. Blasts of power, both Mystic and from the Moonstone, destabilize Black Adam, leaving him open to more dramatic attacks.

When Osiris finishes’ with Captain Marvel quickly, he will go to Talisman and back her up. Osiris can now easily defeat an un-enhanced Black Adam, weakened by Talisman's attacks.

Eve and Miss Martian focuses on Wonder Woman.
Miss Martian uses her speed and powers to distract WW long enough for Eve to get in a shot with the Tactigon, which automatically becomes WW’s worse nightmare. Invisibility is easily countered by the Staff of One, which can also create defensive shields as needed. All out assault on WW includes controlled Lightning strikes, Fire Attacks, as well as countering her magic with the magic of the Staff of One.
If needed, they can be backed up even more by Tamiko, tapping into the power of the Wand of Watoomb to depower WW.

Meggan confronts Big Barda,
The accelerator unit is great for running, but does little for flight. Meggan copies Big Barda, including the powers of the Sigil. As she does, she summons The Knights of Round to launch the first attack against Barda. Meggan follows up with her own attacks, using the Sigil’s Power, Barda's powers and her own, to crush a weakened Barda. Being impervious to attacks, Meggan can keep fighting without stopping for as long as it takes to take her down.

Daniel confronts Magneto, backed by Tamiko
The Speed Boost of Clariss’ formula might give Magneto enhanced running speed, however I am not convinced that it will do much for flight. The Quantum Bands give Daniel sufficient speed and flight abilities to counter Magneto in the air.

Tamiko directs a blast of the Winds of Watoomb at Magneto, keeping him from attacking. Daniel turns his Mace into rubber, and any bullets fired at him will either be deflected by a Quantum Shield, or turned into something harmless like soft clay. Creating both solid matter and energy constructs, Daniel attacks Magneto, trapping him within an unbreakable, non-metallic floating construct that deprives him of air and quickly suffocates him until he is unconscious. Or, he creates a series of high-explosive devices that attach themselves to Magneto’s body and explode on contact. Using whatever it takes to defeat Magneto.

One – by – one each member of Team Cleric falls at the hands of the Shifting Stars.

Standard Contingencies Apply.

CLERIC STRAT

Please remember that my team will perform their moves as quickly as possible.

Simple brass tacks of this is as follows: Tami has two speedsters of near equivelent speed to my team. I have five speedsters. That's a massive advantage over her team that she needs to counter somehow.

Captain Marvel mentally engages the enemy psychics, using Bedlam's pain inducing telepathy to drive them back (should they psionically attack my team) even as he moves at super speed, crossing the 1km distance high and above the opposing team. Once in view, he will be in and amongst them, targeting all the slower people (Meggan, Talisman, Tamiko, Eve, and Daniel).

Now, should any of Tami's team manage to attack Marvel, well, he'll use his Paw Paw Fruit to push the attacks away at lightspeed, including both energy wise and physical wise. Should Tami's team not errect a mental barrier, or attempt a mental attack of their own, Marvel will use his vast psionic powers to overwhelm those suseptible on Tami's team. Otherwise, it's his physical speed and strength and SHAZAM! bolts against the five far slower members of Tami's team.

Black Adam poratsl, via the super flow, high above and to the right of Tami's team. From there, using his super senses and psychic powers to help aim, he will use Space Racer's gun, which can punch through high end class 100's like a hot knife through butter. Plus, as an additional feat of it's strength, it can even punch through a [url=http://rumblers-league.wikispaces.com/file/view/Inv75_Space_Racer_Gun_Vs_Planet_Viltrum.jpg/247189063/Inv75_Space_Racer_Gun_Vs_Planet_Viltrum.jpg]plan[/urlet.

Main targets are Miss Martian, Amon, Daniel X, and Tamiko.

So anyone he targets, and he's aiming for vital spots, is dead. No one on Tami's team can alter or stop the gun, plus he's invisible, so they won't know where he is until he fires. Of course, if they do find and engage, he'll use his psychic powers to try and mentally dominate them while using his super strength/speed and katanna to cut them apart.

Magneto, moving at Reverse Flash speeds (so nigh on Jay Garrick speeds), flies straight through the intervening distance as he double shields himself (mutant shields and lantern shields), appearing amidst Tami's team ready to rip crap up. As soon as they are spotted, his bullets and mace are flung at them at incredible velocities, taregting the heavy magic users (Amon, Tamiko, Eve, Elizabeth), while he rips apart all the metal the opposing team has on them (meaning Eve's gone, being a nano-machine construct).

Once the initial rip is done (so, a nanosecond or so), his Yellow Lantern energy comes to bear, blasting the crap out of the rest of Tami's team at full force as he brings the mace and bullets back into play, keeping them zooming around at incredible speed, slamiming into the opposing team again and again. Essentially, he's keeping a running shooting gallery all around him. If anyone tries to get in close, they are going to get hit. The nice thing is the mace works on intangibles too.

Wonder Woman flies through the buildings seperating the teams, using her double powered TK to blast the rubble into Tami's team, using it as a distarction as she gets in close. As she does this, she'll be firing her new Fairy Guns, which impact the opposing team at lightspeed. She'll target first anyone who's not bullet proof or has gone intangible.

Heck, even if they are bulletproof, a bullet moving at lightspeed is still going to impact with impressive force.

Her double TK, strong enough to hold a hydrated Namor at bay (just one set of it) holds Amon in place as her goddess granted powers form an energy blade and cut him apart.

If Amon is already down, Diana will target Daniel X or Miss Martian instead, using the same tactics (also involving her lasso if needs be).

Barda bites down on the Accelerator Unit and, using the Sigil's power to teleport, does so behind the back's of Tami's team. From tehre, she can shield herself and blast the crap out of them with space-fleet destroying blasts that leap from target to target. She'll make sure her main targets are Amon, Tamiko, Meggan, and Miss Martian, and that thsoe bear teh brunt of her attacks, like energy blades that can cut through planets and the like. Her rod will also be used to blast people, and concidering it's managed to make Superman feel it.......

If needs be, Barda can also engage in high speed combat against Tami's team, moving at just shy of lightspeed. She can aid Diana in besting Amon, or aid Marvel in dusting the slwoers, or just aid the rest in blasting the crap out of them. Barda's pretty much teh free agnet here as far as whom she targets.

NPC's are negligable here, so no mention is really required.

My team will aid each other as possible (Marvel will push damage my team sustains away from them and onto Tami's team), will return from dumps if/when possible, and they will fight to the best of their abilities, skills, experience, knowledge, intelligence, items, and powers allow them to.

[Cleric of Hell's Brigade]

Sorry about the delay.

One major sticking point here is the initial counter to Marvel. Osiris has to wait for Tamiko to help him counter the Paw Paw Fruit. That means he's just waiting there for precious moments, as Tamiko is far, far slwoer than both.

Those are moments Osiris isn't attacking, and my team is. And all the time Black Adam needs to hit Osiris with Space Racer's gun, as Talisman isn't fast enough to stop Black Adam's initial port and shoot.

As for Talisman's intangibility, bad idea. The Faierie Guns can harm intangibles.

There also doesn't seem to be much TP being thrown around by Tami. Without them actively guarding or attacking with it (and needing to wait on Daniel, who's slower than Marvel, to create the devices to block my TP), Captain Marvel's got a good, clean, shot with Bedlam's pain and mental powers at taking out most of Tami's team right away.

[Tami]

I apologize for not debating. I'll try to post something sometime today.

[Tami]

I don't have the mental power right now for a good debate. Sorry Cleric, everyone.

I do want an answer to my question, assumption, that the Speed boost given to Magneto only works with Running speeds. Flying is a whole nother set of abilities. Same goes for Barda using the accelerator, she would need to fly to reach my team. If she stays put on the ground she is going to get stuck.

Also, Tamiko's spells occur with the speed of thought, and she thinks quickly. There is no time lag involved.

Talisman only uses Intangibility if assaulted directly, not all the time.

[Bobisbeast]

I honestly have no clue who wins this one,
I'm not convinced either way yet, wish there was more debate here.

[Tami]

Cleric uses a psychic attack, but my team is immune to psychic attacks due to Daniel's creation, and their defensive shields. The initial attack by Bahmut Zero insures that no initial attacks can take place by Cleric's team until My team is in position.

I choose to minimize psychic attack option since I figured his team would shrug it off anyway. Also the Crimson Bands are a powerful deterrent to taking any initial actions.

[KJ Stewart]

There's not enough to go on here.

I have a "leaning", but there's not enough evidence/debate/incisive points at this stage.

Hoping for more before the end or abstaining.

Edit: Well that did it.

We both know how fast Tamiko is, Tami. Not even Mach 20 like Ramus was. Also, speed of thought is slow compared to all of my people. You know that.

Barda and Magneto can both fly at high speeds (Barda with the Sigil. The Accelerator just helps her move and recat faster so she can fly faster. Same with Erik).

Again, Tami, you're assuming that your team's opening moves occur as fast as my team's does. That's simply not true. Daniel is NOT faster then Marvel, Adam or Wodner Woman. And what's worse, Bahamut Zero is summoned by Meggan, who's not even in teh same ballpark as any of my people, in terms of super speed.

That doesn't even inclde Adam sniping people with the gun, either.

[KJ Stewart]

Pretty appalling input from everyone here.

[Tami]

I guess it was a very close match. Congrats, Cleric, Good game.
