I have made some edits to my post, including adding Quislet Esq's match synopsis. If my count is off, please let me know ASAP. I will probably go down the X-Men list of appearances and try to match with who we have left. I have to remember to exclude beings like Phantom Stranger from future Towers Games because they are hard to defeat.

You may have to pit DC vs DC

You are correct. Well, at least it will make it easier for me to even it out. I will add the five original X-Men and Professor X to the list and reshuffle the list today or tomorrow.

This is our new list of Marvel characters. For the sake of simplicity, the X-Men's powers and experience are that prior to the pivotal Giant Sized X-Men. This Jean Gray is pre-Phoenix. Note that since Beast was already in the game, I have replaced him with Banshee. The version of Beast currently in the game is that of his most recent appearances. As a general rule of thumb, powers and abilities are at most recent appearance for all characters in this game unless otherwise noted. If you have further questions about character versions, please feel free to ask. We will be doing a Preparation Round after this to spice things up.

Wolverine
Rogue
Beast
Monica Rambeau
Hawkeye
Hercules
Hulk
Iron Man
She-Hulk
Black Widow
Ms.Marvel
Firestar
Captain America
Captain Mar-vel
War Machine
Professor X
Cyclops
Banshee
Angel
Iceman
Marvel Girl (Jean Gray)

Round Three


Hal Jordan vs. Professor X
Batman vs. Hawkeye
Steel vs. Cyclops
Green Arrow vs. Angel
John Stewart vs. Captain Mar-vel
Dr. Fate vs. Hercules
Kyle Rayner vs. Iceman
Wonder Woman vs. Rogue
Faith vs. Marvel Girl (Jean Gray) <-- The random generator is good sometimes
Zatanna vs. Ms. Marvel
Superman vs. Iron Man
Flash (Barry) vs. War Machine
Phantom Stranger vs. Wolverine <-- Best I can think of
Tasmanian Devil vs. Banshee
Firestorm vs. Beast <--- Both Scientific
Martian Manhunter vs, Hulk
Mary Marvel vs. Firestar
Cyborg vs. Black Widow
Red Tornado vs. Captain America
Big Barda vs. Monica Rambeau
Shazam vs. She-Hulk

Hal Jordan - has fought telepaths before; has the willpower to resist Professor X long enough to take him out
Batman - Batman surely has a plan for beating Green Arrow, and Hawkeye isn't much different
Steel - Steel's armor can take a couple of hits, and his hammer gives him a good long-range weapon to take Cykes out
Green Arrow - if this were Archangel, I'd give it to Warren. But Ollie has enough toys to take out someone who can just fly
John Stewart vs. Captain Mar-vel - I have faith in John and his ringslinging
Dr. Fate - magic over Herc's muscles; there are many ways Dr. Fate can take Herc out
Kyle Rayner - Kyle smashes through Bobby's ice constructs with his GL ring
Wonder Woman - Diana can lasso Rogue and take her out before Rogue even gets near
Faith - I know Jean was powerful, but Faith once threw an alien armada out of a galaxy. And she has this good vibes power to boot.
Zatanna - "pn erom srewop!" Sorry Carol, you're powerless.
Superman - no contest.
Flash (Barry) - Barry is too fast for War Machine to get a hit. Barry forms a cyclone to pull War Machine to the ground...
Phantom Stranger - one wave of his hand, and Wolverine is toast
Banshee - poor Taz goes down before he gets near
Firestorm - long-range nuclear blasts and transmutation beat Beast down
Martian Manhunter - too many powers. sorry Hulk
Mary Marvel - Mary is too durable for Firestar, I think.
Cyborg - too many gadgets for Natasha to handle
Red Tornado - Reddy blows Cap away before he can get close
Monica Rambeau - Barda's tough, but she's not invulnerable...
Shazam - way stronger than She-Hulk, sorry

Looks like DC's really going to wallop Marvel this round.

Yes, I'm kind of dreading the vote tally. I hope I don't have to re-balance the teams again. When I put this together, I was hoping we would more or less have even eliminations until the last few rounds. Part of me wonders what would have happened if I did a Villains version of this, as more Marvel villains seem to have powers.

Hi everyone, sorry once again you get the bare minimum as my internet clunked out at the worst time. Fortunately, I at least saved all the scores. Feel free to add your own synopsis, I will add more as we discuss. It is hard for me to write realistic blow-out fights, as they aren't as entertaining in my opinion.

I feel like most of the matches I am making are relatively equal so I am confused by the results...if anyone has any better suggestions for matching let me know.


Hal Jordan 3 vs. Professor X 3- TIE
Batman 6 vs. Hawkeye
Steel 4 Cyclops 2
Green Arrow 6 vs. Angel
John Stewart 6 vs. Captain Mar-vel (I need to start voting as I disagree with this)
Dr.Fate 6 vs. Hercules
Kyle Rayner 5 Iceman 1
Wonder Woman 5 Rogue 1
Faith 1 Marvel Girl(Jean Gray) 5
Zatanna 4 Ms.Marvel 2
Superman 6 vs. Iron Man
Flash (Barry) 6 vs. War Machine
Phantom Stranger 4 Wolverine 2
Tasmanian Devil vs. Banshee 6
Firestorm 6 vs. Beast
Martian Manhunter 5 vs. Hulk 1
Mary Marvel 6 vs. Firestar
Cyborg 3 vs. Black Widow 3- TIE
Red Tornado 3 vs. Captain America 3- TIE
Big Barda 2 Monica Rambeau 4
Shazam 6 vs. She-Hulk

I would say again, just start pitting DC v DC

I guess I will have a mini DC vs. DC towers game inside of this one in order to keep the game going. Would anyone object if I just remove Phantom Stranger? I feel like he is just going to win if I do not. I should have excluded all top-tier entities from the game.

No qualms with removing Phantom Stranger. He is just way too powerful.

Cool, thank you for the swift responses. By my count, we have nine extra DC characters, so I think I will do three matches of three. Example: character 1 vs. character 2 vs. character 3. In WWE terms, a small Battle Royale.

After removing Stranger, I count 11 more DC characters (17-6).

I'm thinking of just putting all the remaining DC characters in a real Battle Royale then, and letting who you think the six remaining ones would be. If that doesn't sound like a good idea, I will side-step the voting process and just eliminate the extras through Random.

I really don't think we should do random. That takes a lot of the fun away!
