Yeah, @guyina4000dollarsuit . If this was a straight up match, then your pair will take it without a doubt. But the game changer is Zatanna being prepped. She has 24 hours to come up with incantations and spells to deal with Etrigan (weak to iron, symbols). Unless someone can provide a scan, I don't think Hope has much experience against magic. With prep, Zatanna will arrive with TP defense (not that strong, but enough to start the fight) and cast a silence spell to prevent Hope from using her mimic cry ability. I give Zatanna the victory. I agree. Non-prepped Zatanna would get slaughtered by Etrigan/Summers, but having prep time gives her the edge.

Boogie's Write Ups
Brute Power: A- Telepath/Tech/Magic: B- Chemistry: B- Overall: B bladefd : Some powerful bricks on your team and with the leadership of Supes and Batman do appear like you’re assembling a new version of the Justice League. The problem? Not enough Tech and Magic characters to balance your team out. Plus, by drafting Vulcan and Blackbolt on the same squad has royally screwed up your chemistry. For individual matchups, I predict your team to perform well, but avoid the tie at all cost. Team Battles are not in your favour. Best Value Pick: Kyle Raynar (9th round) Least Impressive Pick: Juggernaut (5th round) (Would have been Emma Frost, but you fixed it)
Brute Power: A- Telepath/Tech/Magic: A- Chemistry: B- Overall: B+ @hawk : Very strong team on paper. You’ve covered every important category with your picks. Great initial five picks with Black Adam, Captain Atom, Martian Manhunter, Wonder Woman, and Professor X. But then you made questionable picks right afterwards, deciding on choosing villains over heroes. This will hurt your Team Battle arguments. Best Value Pick: Martian Manhunter (3rd round) Least Impressive Pick: The Rogues (6th round) (Too Early)
Brute Power: A Telepath/Tech/Magic: A- Chemistry: A+ Overall: A Anti Hero : Damn. What can I say about this team? Nearly every pick you made was a homerun. I had trouble choosing your least valuable pick, you drafted that well. Only criticism I have is you don’t have any spell casters on your squad, although you have Reed Richards that has consistently undone Dr.Doom spelling casting and the magical brick Thor that does the same to Loki. For Team Battles, you’re team is currently the top dog. Even your villains have shown to be capable working with their rivals. Great job! Best Value Pick: Ironman (9th round) Least Impressive Pick: Mr. Fantastic (2nd round) (Too early)
Brute Power: B+ Telepath/Tech/Magic: A Chemistry: B Overall: B+ Rondo : Okay. Your first 4 picks made me quickly dub your team the Nightmare Gang 2.0. Dr. Doom, Onslaught, Cyborg Supes, and Ultron are fantastic consecutive picks. Then your drafting fell off in a hard way. Only pick I like afterwards is Annihilus and picking Lex Luthor as your leader. Too many street level characters were chosen, when there were so many great characters still on the board. Best Value Pick: Annihilus (7th round) Least Impressive Pick: Spawn (5th round) (pretty much a street level character with magical qualities)

Its rachael not hope. Rachael can send etrigans mind in to his past body to attack her before shes prepped, being the savage land she can call that dragon tribe to come help fight, she can use her telepathy to wipe zatannas prep memory, shes used it to take peoples powers before so she can counter spells etc. Still don't think zatanna wins when there's a telepath there to mess with her thoughts. Shes a mutant too she isnt using spells that can be countered. Shes rewritten regular humans genomes with her mind! This is Rachel?! Then I'm even more confident Zantanna will emerge victorious. Although she has the potential to be one of the greatest Telepath of all-time, Rachel still needs a lot of training and has limited abilities. You mention how she will team up with Etrigan so well, but they don't know each other (different universes) and are not prepped. Rachel also has no counter to magic users, unless a scan can prove it, and against a prepped magic user, I have no doubts Zantanna will win. Btw, just a heads up for everybody. Keep in mind the cohension issues when trumping your characters. Your character's morals/personality/trust issues will come into play.

Boogie's Write Ups (part 2)
Brute Power: A Telepath/Tech/Magic: C Chemistry: B+ Overall: B TheEther: You went brick crazy with your first four picks. Very, very nice job at that, but your team lacks a powerful telepath, a heavy tech guy, and an impressive magic user. Your drafting after the midway point is very iffy too. This could come back to haunt you. Not sure how great of a leader Vision will be for this team. I look forward to your arguments when the time comes. Best Value Pick: Orion (3rd round) Least Impressive Pick: Guy Gardner (6th round) (Picked the worst GL when there was better ones still on the board)
Brute Power: B Telepath/Tech/Magic: A- Chemistry: C Overall: B- @guyina4000dollarsuit: Your team is bipolar as fck. I know you were aiming on grabbing your personal favorites, but you jumped the gun on so many picks that you missed out on so many characters, in which you could have grabbed your favorites later on in the draft. A leader of Hank Pym with a team consisted of Apoc, Magneto, Etrigan, and Mr. Sinister screams cohesion issues. I’d love to be a indestructible fly on a wall during this squad’s team battle meetings. Best Value Pick: Hulk (8th round) Least Impressive Pick: Cable (3rd round) (Drafting a morally strict hero with a team full of villains)
Brute Power: A- Telepath/Tech/Magic: A Chemistry: C Overall: B+ coopernicus: Another bipolar squad. Don’t know how Dr. Fate, Flash, and Firestorm (Triple F’s!) will play with all these baddies on your team. Even though your team’s chemistry is severely broken, you did so by picking up a bunch of top dogs. Individually, your team is a huge threat in this draft. Just try to avoid team battles at all cost. Best Value Pick: Despero (5th round) Least Impressive Pick: Holocaust (7th round)
Brute Power: A+ Telepath/Tech/Magic: A+ Chemistry: C Overall: A Bob: Yet another bipolar squad, but man-oh-man, your team is such a threat for one on one battles. You have the best tech guy, the best magic guy, the best two lanterns on the list, and your later picks have characters that should have been gone by the 5th round. Your chemistry is broken, but you have a very strong hand going all in for the matchup rounds. I love your team on paper! Best Value Pick: Zoom (7th round) Least Impressive Pick: Plutonian (6th round)

Raiderfan and Vapid those buttholes ruined it for me and hide in a dark corner until now. So what I'm trying to say is you don't know me!!!

Ok. Now all the matchups are set. I will repost the Injustice League one so that all the round 1 matchups are present. TheEther already started his arguments #1 vs #1 ZeN vs American Bad@$$ Cassandra Nova Xavier vs Wonder Woman TheEther vs blade Starbrand(prepped) vs Vulcan Outbreak vs Coopernicus Etrigan paired/trumped Rachael Summers vs Zatanna (prep)Rondo vs Anti Hero Deadpool/Taskmaster (prepped) vs Sinestro paired/trumped with PhobosWinners in Bold CNX has no physical body for WW to harm. I know WW has some strong TP defenses, but that is only delaying the evitable of CNX mind fcking her in the astral plane. WW has no TP offensive ability. For the Starbrand(prepped) vs Vulcan matchup. I know ZeN alluded to Starbrand being the favorite, but knowing my other self, he could be trolling. If TheEther can provide a scan or some form of evidence of Starbrand having the upper hand, I will reward him the win. Or not, Vulcan is the victor. You have 24 hours to deliver. TheEtherI explained Zatanna being the winner in a previous post. Sinestro and Phobos brings forth all the nightmares.

Brute Power: A Telepath/Tech/Magic: A- Chemistry: A+ Overall: A Yea, I agree. Mr. Fantastic was too early but with Mr. Majestic gone, I wanted a prep god. It was too early and who I thought of immediately when I read you had a hard time picking a weak pick. That said, I stand by it and roll with the team I picked. I also agree, I need a spell caster, I was looking but it seemed to me those that were left after the good ones were gone, I'd be leaving someone better on the board. Anyone want to trade, in the market for a magi.

Question regarding the Astral plane: Isn't that the same idea as battlefield removal? I wouldn't say so. I believe the key is, as long as their physical bodies remain within the battlefield boundaries, then it's not battlefield removal.

TSK Official decision:
ZeN vs American Bad@$$ Cassandra Nova Xavier vs Wonder Woman This was an interesting match, but one that was clearly won through cnx's strong tp abilities and zens good argument for the astral form.
TheEther vs blade Starbrand(prepped) vs Vulcan Need the ether and blade to make more arguments .... if nothing else is said, like boogs i am swinging vulcan.
Outbreak vs Coopernicus Etrigan paired/trumped Rachael Summers vs Zatanna (prep) The prep was wayyyyy too strong here. Goes to show how important the use of trumps are going to be moving forward. Tough pair to lose against a late rounder for coop.
Rondo vs Anti Hero Deadpool/Taskmaster (prepped) vs Sinestro paired/trumped with Phobos Nothing to see here. RIP deadpool.

Planet breaking power The Star Brand allows its wielder flight, super strength, invulnerability and the ability to unleash blasts of destructive energy. Kevin Connor aka Star Brand has destroyed entire fleets and found and had advantage against the Avengers without being trained with his powers and even killed a Beyonder. One of the most powerful being in the Marvel universe. With prep knows Vulcan's strengths and weaknesses and could beat him easily. bladefd Win Star Brand I believe these are the arguments between both parties
