The mostly-humans, like The Punisher and Black Widow shouldn't stand a chance. Will depend on exact comic you draw from but Black Widow is pretty much just near peak-human with some slow aging and enhanced immune system. Depending on her matchup it's pretty much Usain Bolt vs the Flash in a race.

At least Batman and Iron-Man have gadgets, but without being able to plan who they are fighting, I don't like their odds.

Also are we going to assume that the heroes are willing to kill? Like Superman's biggest flaw against most of the non-magic users would be that he doesn't want to harm them. If he's willing to kill, he'll be able to hear their breathing and shoot lasers at them before they even know what happened.

Will be fun to see some hard-counter matchups. Like Wolverine can't beat Magneto.

Anyways, I'm expecting the bracket thread will ensure a large number of users utilizing the ignore feature by the end. :P
Spoiler!


‘Nuff said.

Had to google it to make sure, but there is in fact a rick and morty comic considered canon.

Also everyone, the cuts and seeding poll will be done tomorrow. Worked a crazy long shift today and I'm wiped. 6-8pm it should be up!

Seeding poll is live!

https://www.polltab.com/BNQyTMfeDU

And an explanation for the cuts:

Based on a little research I did, Lady Death was simply too powerful for this poll. The Thing had many similarities to other similar superheroes, Ant Man would have gotten smoked, Silver Surfer also fell in the probably too powerful category and Spawn was my own submission and I didnt want to take any others away from people who had made nominations.

The correct answers for the seeding rounds is mind controllers over physical strength.

Really low voting turnout. Spider-Man clearly doesn’t fit in a who would win a fight top 4

Y'all are sleeping on Doctor Doom, he's basically Dr Strange, Iron man and Reed Richards combined and is the most capable non-cosmic entity in the Marvel universe and has even defeated cosmic entities on his own.

That's a bit of an exaggeration in a poll with Thanos in it (who is borderline broken even without the infinity gauntlet).

But yeah. Doom should be among the top 5-6 in this.

Anyway, in honour of Deadpool winning the seeding poll...

I can see how he's borderline, but I would consider Thanos a bottom tier cosmic entity without the gauntlet.


e: The condition is that they are all aware of the tournament and other participants, so Doom would massively over prepare for every potential match up. When the fight starts, he can just open a portal and get whatever he needs.
