Tough one, I really want to see Blink and Shadowcat advance since I know them better then Vision and Flash... but I dunno. Meditate on this I shall.

who the hell nominated Jay Garrick of all people?
I'd say yes.
Vision is so going down to Shadowcat. Blink can port fast enough to get Flash. So Blink and Shadowcat for me.
It was switched to Jay because the other Flashes with the speed force are retardedly overpowered.
Is there a DC contender that hasn't been gimped yet?
Oh, for the love of god, shut up.
Oh look, the sun came up. How shocking!
Is there a negative comment about a DC character you won't react personally to?
Point to a single Marvel choice you guys have altered to make the fights more "fair". I'll be waiting over in that other thread. You know, the one with the ungimped DC contender.
Other than, I dunno, Captain Marvel, Marvel doesn't do the alternate version thing. DC has half a dozen Flashes and a couple thousand Green Lanterns. If there was a version of Quicksilver who moved at lightspeed I'd want him switched out too.
You know, I'm actually going to give you a concrete answer to this one: Hulk.
Hulk
Edit: <shakes fist at Geebs>
Mostly nobody's gimping Marvel because nobody nominated Sentry, Black Bolt, excetera.
Oh yeah, there's the Hulk.
I CHANGE MY SPIDEY NOMINATION TO COSMIC UNIVERSE SPIDEY I WIN
well impulse is inexperienced and easily distracted to the point where he could beat himself on accident
He still ended up getting voted out because of the speed force. A voter's disqualification, if you like.
Are there civilians still present?
Edit: Well I guess the forest could be a stealthy area, monster island has monsters? I assume so, if so can the monsters eat some of the characters?
[spoiler:6ae230b511]I guess you could just shoot him with hitler's gun, though.[/spoiler:6ae230b511]

Yeah, there are tons of creative ways to take down even the most powerful dudes. Unfortunately, things like this always devolve into a popularity contest.
Let's see
Superman
Wonder Woman
Batman, despite being OBVIOUSLY outclassed
Green Lantern
Impulse(who only lost due to inexperience)
I'll be over at the other fight in a second.
See, here is why I see DC characters being "gimped" more plausible:
DC is Gods among men. Larger than life figures living amongst normal humans.
Marvel is more the "Joe Sixpack as a superhero". Guys like Spider-man and Luke Cage who, if not for outside circumstances, would just be average people. Hence, Spidey and Luke fit better than Superman and Wonder Woman.
While Blink can't really teleport intangible people away, she can fill them up with some three tons of sand. She did it with Hyperion.
Jay, however, is just too fast to hit. He moves at mach speed, and unless he stays very far away, he's going to be effectively invisible.
In any case, I have to go with Jay as the winner. Too fast for anyone in this fight to really have a chance at hitting him, and Vision and Kitty can't stay phased all the time. Sooner or later they have to throw a punch or something, and as soon as they do The Flash seriously messes them up.
I am undecided as to who would take second. Feel free to try and sway me.
Wouldn't the sand not really touch them, seeing as they're intangible and all?
Don't ask me, ask whoever wrote that issue where Blink ruined Hyperion's shit by doing exactly that.
My guess is that the intagibility allowed her to actually put the sand inside of their bodies rather than between their atoms or some such.
The other thing I want is for Terrorbyte to leave this boards and go back to GameFAQS or Newsarama or whatever moron pit he crawled out of.
Vision is a robit and Shadowcat disrupts robits, so it's a matter of her getting near the guy, which is going to be hard with the terrain.
I would think one of the last things Shadowcat would worry about would be terrain.
Her wiki page says that her powers give her the ability to "walk on air" so basically flight.
She can enable herself to walk on air... which... is not the same thing, honestly. However, if Kitty and Blink team up, the moment Vision becomes tangible (assuming he will) Blink can just teleport kitty right into him... bye bye vision. As far as the Flash goes, that's gonna be a tough one... however, Blink can also just teleport a car or wall right into his path, assuming she can ascertain what that path is (of course, in the comics and cartoon the Flash always leaves a long red trail when he runs, so it might be easy to see where he's going)
Yeah, it means shit if he could stop and turn on a dime. But I doubt even the flash can do that...
