This what Vulcan gets
All combatants will not be given access to the area before the fight, as it is artificial, and does not exist beforehand. All combatants will not be told where they are starting. However, depending on the location, they will be starting facing each other at a reasonable distance(the distance will change depending on the size). Combatants who are not prepared will be brought to a small briefing room as the map "loads" and they have 5 minutes to survey/study the map. In comparison, prepared combatants will be brought to the same type of room, AFTER they have made their preparations. On the wall will be a screen with the picture and name of the opponent they are facing, and that is it (prepped individuals will have the information available to them prior). An announcement will let the combatants know that the fight is about to start, and then there will be a 3 second countdown, after which the combatants themselves will be loaded onto the screen. The fight will begin.
Star Brand is Prepared Prepared combatants will be taken to a replica of their home base, or the equivalent of it, and given the FOLLOWING things to aid them in their battle. They have 24 hours to plan before battle.
1) Datapad/supercomputer will be present which holds all relevant information about an opponent, including a psychological profile, information about their species/homeworld, their affiliations, their powers and how they operate(for instance, an explanation on the Kryptonian physiology, such as how the cells absorb yellow sunlight), and their arsenal (if they have one). The computer will boot up with a brief opening monologue so the prepped character will see the strength and weakness of their opponent(s). It's a monologue, so it's not visual, but it can reveal a character's particular moveset, if it is used commonly by that character. But keep in mind, like if a Marvel character is prepped and facing off against Superman, he/she will find out that Superman's weakness is kryptonite. The problem for the prepped character is how will they find kryptonite in the Marvel universe? It's not possible. Then the computer will automatically open to the character's psychological profile as well as giving any relevant information the user requires.
2) A sample of their opponent's DNA. If the opponent is a mutant/alien, this would allow someone with enough knowledge in the area of genetics to analyze, and possibly work out how to neutralize an opponent's ability.
3) Access to any significant prop used by an opponent, such as a Green Lantern's power ring. They would not be able to use the sample, but would be allowed to analyze it, to determine things like power source, type of energy, etc. Because some people rely on items rather than their own inherent abilities, this keeps it from being unfair to those that could have their powers neutralized by analyzing a DNA sample.
4) A small amount of any substance that hinders or helps the opponent. Such as Kryptonite, or Radion. Not enough to actually harm the opponent, but enough to analyze.
5) A 3-D map of the layout will be given in advance for them to study and prepare for battle. They cannot alter the battlefield in any way before the battle.
This will play to my advantage to get the win.
Essentially the Star Brand is a zero-point energy collector, drawing power from the fabric of space-time itself. It is unlimited in potential, though the upper limits of the star-like tattoo of power are determined by the imagination of its wielder. A paradox, the Star Brand came into being when the universe was compressed into a single point of space for a mere microsecond. It has been wielded by several people in various realities.
With prep Star Brand knows Vulcan's powers,weaknesses,physiology,move set and demeanor. With a 3-D layout of the area I can absorb the sun because of the Star brand mark energy collection abilities. I do this because Vulcan has limited reserves of energy while the Star-Brand grants Connor unlimited energy. By doing this if I just prolong the battle by blitzing and attacking Vulcan one and one I would win because he would eventually lose energy. He would not be able to absorb the Star Brand energy because of the uniqueness and Vulcans lack of expertise and knowledge of it. When Vulcan eventually runs out of energy, Star Brand can KO him and the match ends.

So did I officially lose or win the first matchup? It's official, but not official as in the results won't change. They can. Right now, you're at a loss based on TSK and Boogie's votes in Vulcan's favor, but they were both on the fence. Like Boogie said, you have 24 hours to try and appeal this decision (imagine a court case), and thereby, you might be able to change the votes of the judges. If they haven't mentioned anything about their decision, I'll tag them so they can confirm which side they're choosing.

I know Magneto is obviously a huge favorite over Carnage, but shouldn't there be more said than "Magneto wins"? No, not really.

Instead of simply naming your characters feats or their history of beating up other characters, you connected that information with a solid battle plan against your opponent's character. I'm changing my vote to Starbrand (prepped). Everybody that's new to the game, start taking some notes. You don't have to do this much work in your argument (it does help), but pay attention to the final two paragraphs. This is the key towards victory in this draft. Make your point, provide evidence, and how your opponent's character cannot adjust to it. (This is for all the new comers in the draft since you're all still learning)

Ok so I'm going to be the tie breaker. Ask Boogie this matchup was hurting my brain. I did not know where to go and I was waiting for a great argument to and there her did it.
My vote goes to Star Brand prep.

With prep Star Brand knows Vulcan's powers,weaknesses,physiology,move set and demeanor. With a 3-D layout of the area I can absorb the sun because of the Star brand mark energy collection abilities. I do this because Vulcan has limited reserves of energy while the Star-Brand grants Connor unlimited energy. By doing this if I just prolong the battle by blitzing and attacking Vulcan one and one I would win because he would eventually lose energy. He would not be able to absorb the Star Brand energy because of the uniqueness and Vulcans lack of expertise and knowledge of it. When Vulcan eventually runs out of energy, Star Brand can KO him and the match ends.1. Vulcan can setup his forcefields using telekinesis to buy some time. Vulcan only need to keep starbrand from getting too close with those forcefields. Since vulcan is not prepped, he needs to buy time to find the right radiation at the correct frequency that impacts star brand. "Solid Energy Constructs/Simulated Telekinesis: Vulcan could solidify his energy into force-fields and other shapes. The effect of his energy constructs could be used to simulate a form of telekinesis by lifting and moving objects." 2. "Energy Absorption: Vulcan could absorb virtually any type of energy and channel that energy through his blasts." If you study physics, energy is simply radiation being emitted. He does not need to absorb all of it. He can simply deflect it back to starbrand. 3. Vulcan also has the ability of power suppression temporarily when he bombards starbrand with different types of radiation. "Power Suppression: Vulcan could apparently use his powers to override those of another person's mutagenic aura, making them temporarily unable to use them. It is unknown if this was limited to only other energy-manipulators." 4. Vulcan has the ability to mind control and starbrand has no protection against psionics like vulcan. You said that starbrand has control of energy including his brain waves, but he doesn't! Where does he have this ability? Show me. marvel.wikia.com/wiki/Kevin_Connor_(Earth-616) source: marvel.wikia.com/wiki/Gabriel_Summers_(Earth-616)

If you want a lesson on physics and how the electromagnetic spectrum works and how energy manipulation works, we can go there.
