I will give you guys a chance to say who shouldn't be in it. We will take the consensus top 28 and then get ready to move onto DC.

FYI: Cable is automatically in because frick you!

My only qualm with separating by property is that those matchups have been done in various ways. Batman vs. Superman? We've seen it. It's better to talk about Superman vs. Hulk (and we've been there as a board).

I'd make it heroes only, here would be my List

quote:


Angel
Black Bolt
Cable
Captain America
Cyclops
Deadpool
Dr. Strange
Ghost Rider
Havok
Hulk
Human Torch, The
Iceman
Iron-Man
Jean Grey
Magneto
Nightcrawler
Nova
Professor X
Scarlet Witch
Sentry
Silver Surfer
Spider Man
Storm
Thor
Vision
Wolverine


Exactly 26. Based on Popularity and overall power. Sorry Punisher fans.

I think right now we are just trying to seperate and decide who to take from each property.

The matchups will not be property based but random.

Once we have our final 64 I think i'm going to print out the list, cut the names out, put them in a hat and draw them out at random to determine the initial matchups.

Seeing as Nightcrawler can teleport anyone he touches into an alternate dimension and warp back never to see them again...uh yeah. Fight over.

I just took the main list and narrowed it down. If those already got votes, then we're good.

There aren't enough villains to choose from, which is the problem with limiting the villains to ones not on the god-tier:

I'll write in:

Onslaught
Mr. Sinister
Gorr


And yes, I choose to have Emma Frost be a villain because, dammit, there aren't enough.

He would make short work of at least half this list.

Why is based on powers, they are all fictional characters so why not make it based on simple popularity contests?

Sentry isn't god tier?

Yeah, same with Thor and Silver Surfer really, but I don't care anymore. I've chosen.

I'd say Sentry is beyond even Thor. I mean, look what he did to Ares...

Not having The Punisher in the bracket would be a huge fail

I love batman, but frick him in this contest he stands no chance. Especially since he doesn't know the Marvel Universe and can't get close to them to have time to figure out their weakness and make a contingency plan for them.

I'd be willing to see this bracket without punisher if there was no fricking batman. Especially if I have to read 6 rounds of "yeah well he beat superman".

I think making this a "who would win a fight between" poll instead of popularity would be a fail. Especially if we are think the one with the most powers always wins.

I think one way to do it would be get the 64 or however many and say 1 vs all 64 at different times. A total of 4096 individual matchups and take the scores of who would have the most head to head wins. And that would be the Ultimate Champion.

Then properly seed them based on the results for a tournament. Then that would be the Tournament Champion.

So have two or possibly one winner and it would be a more in-depth system

Didn't Black Bolt tear a rip in the universe or something? Is that still going on?

Anywho, I would have nominated my namesake. I see this venture being a whole lot of fun and whatnot.
