-Matches will last exactly 24 hours. Votes after that much time has elapsed will not be counted, even if a new topic hasn't gone up yet.
-This is a contest to determine which character is the most *powerful*. Vote only for the character you think would win in a fight, not the one who's funnier, cooler, or sexier. If you don't do that I can't count your vote.
-BOLD YOUR VOTE. Unbolded votes will NOT be counted.
-Rallying is allowed. Alts are not.
-Fights will take place in a neutral terrain. This does not necessarily mean a *featureless* terrain: assume that both characters will have a chance to use all of their skills to the fullest here, barring setting-specific abilities and anything that requires the presence of multiple enemies (but see below).
-Characters start the fight alone. They don't bring allies with them, like Kerrigan and the Zerg Swarm for instance. Summons are allowed though, provided they're brought once combat has started.
-Fighters retain their usual personalities. They won't fight to kill unless that's their MO, and won't spam their best attacks to win unless, again, that's how they act in their original media.
-Similarly, fighters are unaware of their opponents capabilities at the start of the fight unless their powers facilitate them information (like knowing all there is to know in the universe - this would include who the opponent is and what he can do, as well as weaknesses)
-You don't have to justify your vote, but it helps. If you feel like you can add something to the debate, go right ahead!
-Seriously, BOLD THE VOTE. So important it bears repeating.

(4) Sarda
From 8-Bit Theatre, Sarda is an extremely powerful reality warper. The self-proclaimed 'Wizard Who Did It', he is responsible for the events of the story behind the scenes. He is all-powerful and, among other abilities, can reverse and stop time, as well as manipulate reality itself. Sarda is tremendously arrogant and spiteful: he has often used his powers to affect the universe out of sheer boredom or just to irritate others, such as when he shortened the length of the days from 36 hours to 24, just to make everyone hurry up, as well as deleting an alternate timeline where the light warriors actually saved the world, which he then erased. He is nigh-omniscient and omnipotent: though mighty as few are, he has been taken by surprise before, and was overcome by the arrival of Chaos after absorbing an exorbitant amount of magic.

(3) Kizaru
From One Piece, Borsalino, also known as Admiral Kizaru, is one of the leaders of the Marines and a powerful warrior. He possesses powers over light, which allow him to transform into energy, making objects pass through him and reconstructing his body from energy particles afterward. He is capable of moving and attacking at the speed of light, and all of his attacks are based on the element of light; such as firing energy blasts from his fingertips or feet with extreme precision. His power is very destructive, causing huge explosions and easily destroying buildings. He also has the ability to reflect himself, essentially moving from one location to the next at the speed of light. His weapon of choice is a blade created through his powers, made of pure light.
