    I think we stated that she won the tourney by default, so everyone else is really vying for 2nd.

    I think I mentioned that she was squished by every villain ever.

    Superman's overpowered, but Thor is "evenly matched"?

    Morning Results:

    Match A:

    Shade: 45
    Wonder Woman: 40
    Captain Marvel: 31
    Shadowcat: -13


    Match B:

    Superman: 37
    Thor: 44
    Invisible Woman: 7
    Hulk: 14

    There's a slight chance Marvel could come back in A. B looks set though.

    Wow, Captain Marvel is making quite the comeback. He's just a vote or two from taking second in his match.

    The last match is going to be pretty weird; three Superman-type characters (Superman, Thor, and either WW or Capt. Marvel)... and then, for something completely different, Shade. I like to think Shade would laugh at how that turned out.

    Update!

    Shade 70
    Wonder Woman 56
    Captain Marvel 55
    Kitty -19

    Thor 71
    Superman 58
    Hulk 26
    Sue 1

    Looks like three spots are wrapped up. Cap/Wonder Woman is going to go down to the wire, it looks like.

    Just after I posted it, Wonder Woman and Captain Marvel flipped again.

    4. Superman - Unfortunately a stranger in an arena full of people who have spent a lot of time saving the world together.

    .....I swear these people don't even read the debate threads. Hulk hates everyone, and there's no way Thor and Sue could take down Supes. Supes would take out Sue pretty quickly and Thor and him would go at it.

    Captain Marvel over Wonder Woman? I'm alerting the Hague. This should be a new crime against humanity.

    Also, I expected Supes and Thor to be more evenly matched in terms of votes.

    The two things working against Supes is a) Thor has magic toys, which might possibly come in handy, and b) all the other opponents are Marvels, which means they might gang up on him.

    Fuck, I missed voting.

    The thing about Hulk in his match, is that the fact that there ARE Marvels would be his downfall. I am pretty sure he'd be really pissed at Sue for her husband shooting him into space, and he'd probably go STRAIGHT for her. Both Thor and Supes being the upstanding chaps they are would stop him from trying to pound on a woman. Supes moreso than Thor, though.

    I mean, he MIGHT have teamed up with Thor what with him being dead and all, but this incarnation of Thor would be unaware of Hulk being shot into space, so he'd have no fucking clue that he'd be weaker than before and might accidentally take him out as well.

    Man, Hulk was REALLY fucked this match.

    And when someone stopped him from, say, blowing up Keystone City, he was under the control of an evil midget at the time.

    Or something.

    He lost for real plenty of times, it's just been hastily retconned now that he's supposed to be a massive bad-ass.

    I'm pretty sure this started with the Starman revival?

    I JLU it was as easy as nicking his staff.

    Wouldn't a Superman/Wonderwoman team up on Thor pretty much give Shade an instant win? I can't see either of those two lasting very long if they flat out ignored Shade for any length of time.

    NEW RULES!

    Finalists may view video of any previous match..

    Finalists may not have any special equipment.

    The arena for the final match is Battleworld itself. The whole thing. All of it. Any kind of terrain or civilization you can think of is probably here.
