Cyborg (DC) Runs the Marvel Machine Gauntlet

[wayfarejourneyman]

How Would DCs Cyborg fare in the following gauntlet of Marvel Characters:

1) Victor Mancha

2) Deathlock

3) Machine Man

4) Omega Red

5) Omega Sentinel

6) Bastion

7) The Vision

8) Ultimo

9) Apocalypse

10) The Fury

My thoughts: I think Vic can make it up to Omega Sentinel before he starts having real trouble. I think Vision is way stronger physically and has stronger (if less versatile) energy projection. Ultimo, Apocalypse, and the Fury are all varying degrees of awful curbstomp.

Why is The Fury even on there? I don't know where we stand about intentional stomps in a gauntlet type situation, but that would appear to be one.

I was more like a control, than anything else. I was going to use Beta-Ray Bill as top dog but figured i'd go all out and make the last threat an inconceivable fight.

For the record, I'm not trashing Cyborg. I think he can make it a decent way through the gauntlet, but stops well short of the Fury. Nothing wrong with that -- even Vision is a potential Team-Buster.

Well, neither BRB or Apocalypse are actually machines. Pocky's a mutant who often makes himself appear mechanical (for some reason) but BRB does have some cybernetic enhancements I suppose.

If you wanted a higher-level fight that was at least conceivable, the Air-Walker robot would have been a better shout than the frickin' Fury.

But Cyborg actually has a big advantage over a lot of these guys. The Boom Tube. He can BFR a lot of them before they cause a problem.

Apocalypse is infected with the T-O, so i would argue that that constitutes him being a Cyborg.
