With Orion's power augmentation every one becomes stronger. Osiris becomes a match for Mary Marvel. Orion out classes everyone would take out who ever comes his way. Wonder girl goes to whoever and helps.

Wonder girl goes to whoever and helps. TheEtherAs I mentioned, Emma Frost is also able to boost the powers of everyone around her. She also has something called power inhibition where she can weaken certain people. It would work perfectly with her ability to communicate through her mind alone over vast distances. Check out her powers. She has more psychic/telepathic abilities than ms martian and significantly more experience. If you need specifics highlighted from the sources, let me know. my-own-marvel.wikia.com/wiki/Emma_Frost , en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emma_Frost -she can setup psionic shields on her entire team to protect from Ms Martian -she can mind control at will -she can do psionic mind blasts from vast distances -if she gets killed, she can transfer her mind to another body along with her full powers. -she is able to run multiple streams at the same time As far as vision is concerned, he is electronic. I have Vulcan, who is the master of electronics. He can literally keep track of Vision and fry Vision when he comes near Emma. Emma also has the ability to know when a foreign mutant is in her radius so forget about Vision sneaking up! Vulcan is right there to stop Vision along with Batman and initially Rayner backing her up. Vulcan has very similar psionic abilities but the difference is he gets into the physical portion of people's head through pure energy rather than Emma doing it psychically. Don't underestimate Vulcan and his ability to manipulate/absorb energy beyond anyone currently present in the fight. You have overlooked Vulcan! This is not like the opening matchup where you beat me on the technicality of Vulcan not being prepped. He is prepped this time around on the energy being emitted. No longer "Starbrand is from another universe, Starbrand destroys the star, and Vulcan is not prepped so you cannot manipulate Starbrand's energy and sun is destroyed." That argument is over, bro, because Vulcan is prepped now

I really like the amount of thought Blade put into his team battle planning. I thought this would be a forgone conclusion, but your argument place some doubt into my mind. I had to think about it, but I'm still going with TheEther's team. I believe Blade has the better characters and one of the best leaders in the draft (Batman). But he has mortal enemies on his squad and they're all going to be in the same planning room. Batman/Supes won't be able to seperate them. Vulcan/Mongul have never worked with their enemies. Even the idea of seperating the team into 4 groups in a fight won't work. It's a good plan to start, but like all battles/team sports, all planning goes down to shit and you gotta improv the rest of the way. What happens when Vulcan and Blackbolt lock eyes? What will Mongul do when he sees all the goodies on his squad? I know they're fighting another team, but these are vengeful loose cannons. I don't believe they're gonna play nice like you believe they will. They haven't shown that in the comics.
I'm not entirely impressed by TheEther's team and he's overexaggerating a lot of his characters, but at least they're all going to be working together with no fear of getting backstabbed during a fight, and he has enough bricks and magical bricks to win this close fight.
TheEther wins.

did he send in his numbers? Nope. But 2 others haven't. I was thinking if the others gave them to me and he doesn't respond 5 pm pst, then I could go with your numbers

While we're still waiting
There has been a change in TheEther's roster
He drops Invincible, Osiris, and Firelord and picked up Magik, Kurse, and Thane via free agency

I guess I will be dismanting and changing huge portions of my team. Otherwise, I'm never winning a team battle even with a better roster/calculated strategy. Anyone want black bolt? Make an offer.
Same with mongul. If anyone wants him, make an offer.
I will look at FA. 3 other people I'm considering dropping but not decided.

@hawk
Don't even know what my roster is. I can only trade as long as my roster is not locked. sending numbers = roster locked

Team battles really shouldn't happen that often...I wouldn't sacrifice individual strength for team cohesion...but that's just my opinion

I did say sending in the numbers would indicate making it locked/finalized, but considering there were no mentions of a GM being interested in trading one of their rosters until after the fact (GMs already sent me numbers), I'm willing to make an exception where if someone is interested in a trade, then they can do so and revamp their roster.
I believe more GMs are itching for Round 2 to start, so I don't necessarily know how long I should allow time for negotiations, unless all 7 GMs state they show no interest

Team battles really shouldn't happen that often...I wouldn't sacrifice individual strength for team cohesion...but that's just my opinion This is true. If you feel confident against your opponent that you can win 5 head to head matchups, then chemistry isn't an issue. Also as long as you aren't trumping Vulcan and Black Bolt together, there should be no other issues.

Just want to throw out that I may not be able to provide arguments with full sourcing/scans till Sunday (will be camping tonight and tomorrow day/night), but should be able to at least start arguing once the next matchups are announced.
