http://www.bracketmaker.com/tlist.cfm?tid=190520

We will be voting on two brackets every three days. The voting will take place in threads, similar to the hero tournament. The first day will be a pre-fight debate, and then there will be two days of voting. In the pre-fight debate thread, Doom will assign an environment and weapons to the competitors. If there are special rules for any given bout, those will be made clear at that time as well.

The first pre-fight threads will be going up shortly.

    Poops on none of my main three nominations making it in.

    Poops!

    I'll just root for Ultron and Mirror Master then, I guess.

    Deathstroke vs Taskmaster? Awesome.

    Xorn vs Titanium Man? I have no idea who Titanium Man is (sounds like an Iron Man villian), but doesn't Xorn have Magneto's powers? That should be fun to see.

    Doctor Doom vs Bizzaro? Probably going to be the best actual fight of the first round.

    I sure hope that's movie Kronen.

    Otherwise he's fucked. Unless he gets to make some zombies or something. Without them he's just a polite German madman in a funny mask and a bloody apron.

    By cool villains do you mean the ones that are only popular in the UK, or the Wildstorm ones with poorly defined metaphysical powers?

    Doom can take someone off for him but he doesn't fit into the bracket.

    Board might as well change its name to this. It'd be even more lopsided if Doom didn't resort to padding the DC column with Batman's rogue gallery.

    Ideally, especially with something like this. For random threads and junk, who cares?

    Nah, y'all just need to jump off Stan Lee's jock every once in a while. Excelsior!

    Yeah, because Fantastic Four, X-Men and Avengers villains are pushovers and Kirby wasn't responsible for creating both universes' most powerful bad dudes. Durr.

    This point is even lamer in context, what with all the low power level Batman villains representin'.

    Man, it really wouldn't be as much fun calling this out if it weren't for the guaranteed freak-out. Honestly, I was just looking for an explanation. The hero battle had a pretty even split, if I remember correctly.
