Board 8 > Simulated Character Battle (NOT MERCS) Actual Discussion Topic

(+) Yeah! (+)

Toko > Neo (2-1)

It was a tie, so I vacated my vote

Everybody forgot to vote in all the controversy >_>

---

Elizabeth > Rick (10-2)

---

the Neo thing reminded me that I wanted to nominate Monika but thought she might not have any power because her battles wouldn't be set in a game

good decision, past me

---

John Constantine > Funny Valentine (3-2)
Mario > Seagull (6-2)

---

Zack > Cyclops (9-2)

---

Bigby > Freakazoid (7-6)

Spicy

Hot damn

---

Estelle > Roman (4-1)

I just realized.. is Roman's name supposed to be a pun/reference to Roman Candles?

---

Aang > HOUOUIN (5-1)
Sera > Schehera (5-1)
Guile > Fantomas (11-0)

---

Zenobia > Joker (5-1)

---

D > Marisa (6-1)

---

Kenshiro > Chara (6-0)

It's looking like I may need to DQ Kenshiro and have him fight the champion of Low due to poor tier placement

---

You might want to take Battler out of Low also.

anybody else who actually know what he does agree?

---

why even bother, the tiers are already unbalanced as hell. Kenshiro cant make it too much worse

---

Id just leave it as is.

---

Liquidator > 9S (5-0)

---

battler is w e i r d he's either sheldon tier or absurd high high

whatever just leave him
---

Popeye > Illyria (7-6)

I had Popeye as a low seed and Illyria as high so woops I guess

---

the arguments were pretty clearly favoring Illyria there, so yikes

can't say I'll miss her vague time manipulation stuff though

---

Yeah, I really wasn't looking forward to any further debates about Illyria. Her powers are too vague and broken to lend themselves to many interesting conversations.

Popeye just feels like The Host 2.0 from whatever MPFC contest that was... wasn't that character basically "host avatar that automatically wins any match that a hypothetical audience would want him to win" or something like that? I could be way off on that one, I think that was quite some time ago.

kanzariskelshen too strong
---

petition to move the last of my characters out of low so people can finally respect at least one of them

jonathan got no respect despite being a literal god bird that with determinable power of roughly 10 times that of other, canonical gods in the setting the combat form i was arguing for was in. it just got disregarded because it was mistiered :(

so with that in mind... thunderbull is my last one and it's not too far off from that i feel

GameFAQs Flash and GameFAQs Doctor with the TARDIS could take him.

---

Jonathan had the misfortune of being named after a much weaker character, that people already voted on before you got to the topic to explain. he was robbed imo
---

in any case, here's my advance case for thunderbull

as a big rigs vehicle, it is capable of totally no-selling any physical contact with things in its way. it can selectively maintain contact with things such as ground, even in a conceptual sense as you exit the boundaries of the map, applying a seemingly endless amount of force as it does so to prevent itself from lifting off said ground at any point even as it negates all friction, allowing it to reach a speed of "18.3 octillion times the speed of light" in a matter of minutes. that means it is capable of entering the solar system and ramming into an unsuspecting opponent in the span of like 0.0000000000000001 seconds. And in even less time, it can also completely stop moving too

ironically, it's actually at more of an advantage in difficult to navigate areas as it isn't affected by any changes in terrain

also it may or may not have cargo, it has horns and is just metal as fuck

you nominated jonathan's franchise as the book and said he was literary

and jebediah kerman should be broken as well as he can travel a few orders of magnitude faster than that and ascend as the spaghettified aspect of the Kraken

I won't be around when the new match goes live, so here's some info on Janet:

Janet is a sentient AI-like helper who comes bundled in with every Good Place neighborhood. There is a Janet in every neighborhood in the afterlife; this specific Janet is the one the show follows, who gets repeatedly rebooted and becomes closer to human than any other Janet.

Janet claims to know everything on Earth, from major events to the minutiae of people's lives. (It could be argued that she knows every fictional universe in this contest as a result, but I'm not sure I feel like going down that road.) She has gaps in her knowledge about the afterlife, but it is consistently shown that she is full of knowledge about Earth.

Janet also has the ability to instantly summon any object on Earth, ranging from the mundane to the spectacularly weird. We never see her use this power offensively, though there is nothing theoretically stopping her from doing so.

In addition, Janet can automatically retreat to her void, a formless place that exists outside space and time. She can do this at any time. She can also create other beings who are like her (she creates a "boyfriend" that functions in much the same way), as well as constructs of people who behave like normal people. This isn't perfect, however - the boyfriend in particular is very weird and acts like a defective Janet model. But this is something she can do.

Also, Janet states in the finale that she doesn't experience time the normal way. This is probably a result of the afterlife timeline moving in a non-linear fashion, but also she's been known to retreat to her void and come back seconds later, though a lot of time has passed for her.

Janet is tricky here because she's more of a conceptual fighter. She has a wide array of abilities but she never really uses them in direct combat. The only time we actually see Janet engaged in direct combat is when her powers have been removed due to being on Earth. She's able to easily overpower a group of demons (who look and act like humans) through basic hand-to-hand combat. When her powers briefly return, her attacks are amplified (she's able to easily toss them away). She also, while in the Bad Place, held a demon up by the neck and threw him into a wall so hard the wall cracked.

There are two canon ways to defeat Janet. One is to push on her nose and put a paper clip in a small hole near her left ear; this will turn her into a marble. The other, more interesting way, is that in every neighborhood, Janet has a kill switch located remotely somewhere. If you press it, it doesn't actually kill her - it knocks her out for a while, but then she reboots and grows in terms of sentience. This particular Janet has been rebooted around 800 times, making her far more self-aware than other Janets. I think a kill switch would spawn somewhere in the arena, though whether her opponent would know to target it specifically or not is up in the air. Also, whenever someone approaches the switch, Janet is programmed to plead for her life (even going so far as to show a picture of fake kids she claims to have), though as soon as you walk away, she will admit it's all an act. Here's a video of that:

should I swap him and Luca?

this actually sounds like a solid idea to me

---

He-Man vs Hades sounds a thousand times more interesting, I'd be down

---

He-Man in mid along with some other placements makes me question having Yujiro in high (shrug)
