i mean, do you really see this as being one sided either way to where it shows a bias? there was a pretty good debate whether or not Loki should beat Amazo. the vote was even pretty close.
Doomsday is even stronger than Amazo. how long will loki slide by?
he gets a big benefit from being associated with thor. this is a straight up hand to hand tournament. i dont think its a landside for either
Ok I won't do this point by point (I actually started that way and went back to edit )
Only because Amazo can copy powers, that was the only thing that kept him in it. I mean yeah if this is an arm wrestling match you have a point about Doomsday's strength making that big of a difference. If you mean one on one, not "hand to hand" right?
Ok maybe not a landslide, but this was in reaction to the "If anyone votes for Darkseid it's Marvel bias" asserton, but Loki has a big advantage:
quote:
Loki is the most skilled magician in all of Asgard, if not all of the nine worlds. Through magic is he able to achieve a myriad of effects and powers such as supersonic flight, dimensional teleportation, intangibility and invisibility, energy blasts, energy manipulation, illusion casting and forcefield generation.
Doomsday won't be able to touch Loki really, that would be the first problem.

wasnt one of the big talking points for Doomsday is that he has evolved so much through his fights?
comic vine:
hes faced magic (hell, he just beat black adam), JLA teams with Zatanna, and many other heroes. He also has a healing factor.
eta: great job not turning it into a doctorate

also, i could probably be swayed on the Zod vote. just no one has opened up that fight yet.

Fair enough. Like I said, not a landslide, but Loki is incredibly powerful. He beat Black Adam because that would turn into a fist fight, and in that case, Doomsday probably beats any other being in this tournament. Loki has too many tools at his disposal. The other easy argument is that any artifact Loki teleports in is something Doomsday has never faced.

Man that's YEARS of programming. There's a reason I do that. You used thesis in the other thread,

which is my thinking as well. id like to hear a pro-sinister argument

was it ever cleared up about Ultron having a limited capacity to absorb energy? hasnt there been multiple times hes overloaded?
I've looked around some and can't find an example of this or even Ultron even using this energy absorbing thingy against anyone. Closest I found was he once absorbed the energy in Ironman's armor. But Ironman just adjusted his armor to compensate. Found where Thor absorbed Ultron's energies, but not Ultron absorbing the energy from Thor's lightening.
Not saying it's wrong, but maybe it's not something used for battle, but simply as a means to absorb electromagnetic energy from nature as a means of constant power? IDK and will keep looking.

Loki vs. Doomsday
I can see a case being made for both. I realize Doomsday evolves after each defeat, which means he has to be defeated to evolve. This is a one time deal. Loki defeats him and it's over.
Question to be becomes HOW does Loki defeat Doomsday? Just teleport him out of the dimension and it's over for Doomsday???
Now that I think about it, couldn't Darkseid just do the same with Ultron?

id hate if this is all it takes for a win. then anyone with teleporting wins. hell, that could make Mephisto beat anyone very easy.
Besides, teleporting Doomsday wouldnt really be beating him. he can survive in almost any condition.

See the ultra nerds here:

They specifically take away Manhunters telepathy to even it out. I was trying to find some info if Zod has resisted mind control like Supes. Found none. Did find that.

quote:Who's to say he could manipulate the mind of a Kryptonian. Like I said, this one is pretty close. Sinister is a mental power and Zod is a physical power. They're both smart, but Sinister is a genius. This may be a toss up, but I vote Zod.
Sinister is a telepath.

Roger that. I was just going off memory, no research.

I agree and a hellava boring way to fight. But if that is a power they have...................

This much is true

meh. even without that, it seems Sinister would win. He can control his density, believe he has energy blasts, and all similar properties to Zod in terms of stamina and invulnerability.
I think im switching to Sinister

and I guess this is assuming Zod has all of Kal-El's powers as well.
this is a lot closer than I thought. That means zod has the eyebeams, breath, speed, flight, etc.
tough one.

To answer your early question, I think we all agree that ultranationalist could absorb darkseid's beams.
Posted on 7/22/14 at 3:37 pm to Darkknight
Zod would break Sinister in half. I've decided.
