The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
This is the voting thread for brackets 5 & 6 of the tournament. Please put your votes only, along with a comment on why you feel they would win. Votes will be tallied up in 48 hours. Please leave any side comments in the pre fight debate threads.
Fight 5
A - Captain Nazi: As much as I like Shiva, there's been instances where she's been beaten but other non-superpowered folks.
B - Green Goblin: The knock-off doesn't stand a chance against Norman.
C - Mastermind: Jason has kept the entire X-Men team in chaos and kept Jean Grey under a ruse for a while. Wish a lot of these fights were like this one though, Purple's a solid contender.
D - Gentleman Ghost: Well... he can't be hit. He'll just outlast Absorbing.
Fight 6
A - Bullseye: Heh, the Blob is going to lose his eyes.
B - Grodd: Tougher fight without his psychic abilities, but in a cage match, he should still do fine.
C - Solomon Grundy: Being undead should negate Omega's tentacles and tough enough to stand the rest.
D - Deathstroke: Taskmaster's a bad ass, no denying it, but Slade's got so many other abilities, one of which being a tactician. Plus, they're in Batman's cave... he should be a little more at home.
Bracket 5
fight 1:Captain Nazi(He's on superman level and he's a nazi
fight2:Green goblin(In the end it will come down to the healing factor
fight3:Mastermind(Just make himself look like a general and tell all the soldiers to open fire on purp)
fight4:Absorbing man(I honestly don;t know why)
Bracket6
fight1:Bullseye(Eye skewer FTW)
fight2:Gorilla Grood(Overpowers tombstone on a couple levels really)
fight3:Omega Red(I think the electricution and the death vapors can still knock Grundy out)
fight4Taskmaster(:You want badass? I'll give you badass.)
A: Lady Shiva - here's knives in your eyes.
B: Green Goblin - Hobby's more brutal, but Gobby's more clever.
C: Mastermind - I think the blanket illusions will turn Purple Man's orders against him Gentleman Ghost - If he's REALLY a ghost, and I dunno if he is, he could possess Absorbing Man, and cause him to absorb the properties of oxygen, and dissipate into the airstream. the air would carry out of the canyon before he could reassemble, and he would be disqualified. Pretty neat, huh?
Bracket 6:
A: Blob - This is really sort of a pity vote, but I think Blob, if he used his full potential, could wallop the hell out of Bullseye.
B: Grodd - He'd fuck the guy up, he's a huge gorilla with super strength.
C: Omega Red - I think his death factor would work on Grundy, it would just take longer than on a normal human. And I think he's good enough to hold him off until it does. Deathstroke - One took out the Justice League, one took out the Avengers. This is a coin-toss match if I ever saw one, but I'm giving it to Deathstroke because he's smarter and more familiar with his surroundings here.
a) Captain Nazi - He's loaded with hard hitting powers, and his name's Captain Nazi. He's good to go for the next round.
b) Green Goblin - He does it all better and crazier. The Hobgoblins fun, but at the end of the day he's just a knock off.
c) Mastermind - Fantastic fight, but at the end of the day he's just more versatile. No one will be able to find him, and it's only a matter of time before one of his soldiers shoots Purple Man from beyond the range of his powers.
d) Absorbing Man - He fights Thor. The Gentleman Ghost's claim to fame is being fancy. At the end of the day, he can't really do anything to hurt Absorbing Man, and all he needs to do is slip up once to lose.
Bracket 6
a) Bullseye - The Blob's great, but he's taking a paperclip through the eye or a rubberband ball down the throat before he even knows what's going on.
b) Tombstone - He's more of a brawler. The limit on Grodd's power will put him off his game enough to give Tombstone the edge.
c) Omega Red - Baring a clarification I missed, Grundy's been more whipping boy than threat lately. I'll assume he's more at the Batman threat level than Superman, so Omega takes the win.
d) Taskmaster - Too unpredictable, and his bag of tricks gives him an edge.

Bracket 5
a) Captain Nazi - How many Nazi's are in this tourney? Oh well, he has a higher power set than shiva. Can easily toss her off.
b) Green Goblin - The original vs the pretender, I wonder who wins? Here's a hint: Hobgoblin was never the brightest bulb.
c) Mastermind - Purple man doesn't realize he's sending his men to attack himself. oopsies.
d) Gentleman Ghost - Monocle powers activate! Oh yeah, and being smarter than a bag of bricks helps.
Bracket 6
a) Bullseye - EVERYTHING IS A FUCKING WEAPON HOLY SHIT
b) Tombstone - He's more down and dirty. Since Grodd can't use his best asset, Tombstone pulls out the win.
c) Solomon Grundy - Want pants too! He'll tear up Red and Red can't do shit to drain Grundy.
D) TASKMASTER - He's like fighting the Marvel U. and has that energy projector to boot. Can move faster than Deathstroke. It's a close, but Taskmaster wins this one.
Munkus Beaver on
Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.
A) Captain Nazi - fuck, I don't know, I flipped a coin Green Goblin - Listen, you do not fuck with Norman Osborne.
C) Mastermind - Can probably turn Purple Man's own machinations against him.
D) Gentleman Ghost - He's got class going for him. And I don't think the Absorbing Man was ever classified as smart
Bracket 6
A) Bullseye - Blob just isn't smart enough to corral Bullseye, I think Tombstone - He's not just strong. Fucker's quick.
C) Omega Red - He's just more versatile.
D) Taskmaster - I think they're pretty evenly matched. So I'm going the pussy way out, and since I've never liked Deathstroke's costume, I'm going with Taskmaster. (Shut up, I wouldn't do this if Deathstroke was fighting the fucking Riddler or something)
Fivers:
1. Nazi, Dude got stabbed in the eyes with hypos and is still truckin'
2. Norman, Arguably one of the greatest villians ever. Took the glider to the stomach, he can take Hob.
3. Purps, fucked with Cage and lived.
4. Gentleman Ghost, Creel is to goddamned asinine to take on refined manners. Also, Ecto Cooler.
Sixas:
1. Bullseye, took on Punisher-Lived. Murdock-Lived. Elekra-Lived. Parker-lived. Hit by a semi? Lived.
2. Grodd. Anyone that can go toe to toe with a Flash deserves mention.
3. Solomon Grundy, born on a Monday,
Christened on a stark and stormy Tuesday,
Married on a gray and grisly Wednesday,
Took ill on a mild and mellow Thursday,
Grew worse on a bright and breezy Friday,
Died on a gay and glorious Saturday,
Buried on a baking, blistering Sunday.
That was the end of Solomon Grundy.
4. Taskmaster. As on the fence as I want to stay, I gotta give it to him. He just has more versitility in this fight.
A)Lady Shiva: Captain Nazi is a punk, Shiva will put him down.
B)Green Goblin: He's not only zany he KILLED GWEN!
C)Mastermind: His control over the soldiers will prove superior = victory.
D)Gentleman Ghost: I don't know him at all but he sounds more than capable of putting Absorbing Man down. Who isn't though really?
Bracket 6
A)Blob: A tough one, but inside a store with no escape its only a matter of time before Blob manages to squash Bullseye.
B)Grodd: Tombstone is cool but Grodd is fucking Grodd yo.
C)Omega Red: More resourceful, more cunning(duh) and just more of a badass in the end.
D)Taskmaster: Deathstroke isn't a push over but Taskmaster just has that special something that will get the job done here. Very close fight.
1. Lady Shiva: On one hand, he's a Nazi. On the other, she's a fucking goddess of combat, and didn't Catwoman take down Nazi?
2. Green Goblin: O.G., what what
3. Mastermind: Illusions.
4. Gentleman Ghost: Ghosts are pretty damn scary, and he's pretty damn classy.
bracket 6
1. Bullseye: This.. Wow.
2. Grodd: I must admit, I was convinced the moment I saw he was a gorilla. But even aside from that, I'm sure he could go all Congo on Tombstone
3. Omega Red: Okay, he's born on a monday, but Omega Red's pretty much cooler than every day of the week. Maybe not wednesday, but still.
4. Deathstroke: the god damned Terminator. A good fight it'll be, but Mr. Wilson comes out on top in the end.

B)Green Goblin: Any goblin after Green is just the poor-mans version of the real thing.
C)Mastermind: C'mon...just C'mon.
D)Gentleman Ghost: I really like Absorbing Man...but there isn't shit someone can do to a ghost.
Bracket 6
A) Bullseye - Banana down the throat, hell any item is a weapon to Bullseye.
B)Grodd: Grodd is Grodd. He'll win simply because he's much smarter.
C)Omega Red: Has no problem ripping an old ladies head off and cramming it down Solomon's throat. Plus he's Russian.
D)Taskmaster: Taskmaster has far too much versatility and combat skills to be taken down by...almost anyone outside of "omega level" mutants/superheroes.

D)Taskmaster: Taskmaster has far too much versatility and combat skills to be taken down by...almost anyone outside of "omega level" mutants/superheroes.
A)Lady Shiva Because a guy called "Captain Nazi" is pretty much custom made to have the shit kicked out of him. Green Goblin You can't beat the original.
C)Purple Man I think his mind control will be able to override MM's illusions.
D)Gentleman Ghost Smarter and a ghost, but most importantly Classier.
Bracket 6
A) Bullseye One of the people best skilled to take out the blob. Grodd I don't know what to say, he's a super strong highly intelligent gorilla. That seems like reason enough.
C)Omega Red Grundy is far too inconsistant in his power levels. And Omega would easily out maneuver him and tear him apart anyway.
D)Taskmaster Deathstroke will have a very hard time predicting Taskmaster's movements with him switching styles around.
A)Lady Shiva: Nazi's are the ultimate show-off fodder.
B)Green Goblin: Pfft. Hobgoblin. PFFT.

Bracket 6
A)Bullseye - YOU'LL SHOOT YOUR EYE OUT.
B)Tombstone. I dislike Grodd.
C)SOLOMON GRUNDY. WILL TAKE OMEGA REDS PANTS.
D)Taskmaster. He can learn on the fly as to what Deathstrokes plans or fighting style are, giving him the advantage.
A: Lady Shiva - here's knives in your eyes.
B: Green Goblin - Hobby's more brutal, but Gobby's more clever.
C: Mastermind - I think the blanket illusions will turn Purple Man's orders against him Gentleman Ghost - If he's REALLY a ghost, and I dunno if he is, he could possess Absorbing Man, and cause him to absorb the properties of oxygen, and dissipate into the airstream. the air would carry out of the canyon before he could reassemble, and he would be disqualified.

A: LADY SHIVA- FUCK WHY DID I VOTE FOR THE BEE GUY
B: GREEN GOBLIN- BECAUSE HARRY DIES IN SPIDER-MAN 3
C: MASTERMIND- BECAUSE I NOMINATED HIM ABSORBING MAN- PITY VOTE
BRACKET 6:
A: BULLSEYE- HE WOULD NOT LOSE TO THIS TUBBY FUCK
B: TOMBSTONE- BECAUSE THE OTHER GUY IS A GIANT FUCKING MONKEY; ALSO HE KILLED THE SPOT

Match 5:
A: Captain Nazi - He's like Superman, but angry and German.
B: Green Goblin - The original will always be better.
C: Purple Man - Mastermind may have illusions, but he can't control the soldiers. Purple Man can, and will find a way around the illusions. Gentleman Ghost - Intangible, and smarter than Absorbing Man.
Match 6:
A: Bullseye - Pens in the eyes, erasers in the throat, etc.
B: Grodd - Smarter and way stronger than Tombstone.
C: Omega Red - Red is much more powerful than Grundy. Taskmaster - Much bigger badass than the Deadpool rip-off.
A.Lady Shiva: Shiva 10 kunai in the Nazi's eyes, if Catman can do I assume someone that is consider one of the top martial artist in DC could do it with ease
B.Hobgoblin: Green Goblin is all tricky and crazy, but Hobs gets down to buisness faster, his whole thing is he's norm without the obessesion, not as wacky brain smarts, but I imagine he also won't have a lot of elaborate things to tell Norman has he skewers him
C. Mastermind: Just can't vote for a rapist, of any kind, plus Mastermind is soooo much smarter than Kilgrave and stylish to boot
D. Gentleman Ghost: So much smarter than Absorbing Man, love his power set, look and demeanor
Match 6:
A.Bullseye: Eyes, Ears, Mouth, all chocked filled with anything and everything that Lester can get his hands on
B. Grodd: Flash villians get auto votes from me
C. Solomon Grundy: Guy could probably tear Omega Red in two
D. Taskmaster: one of my favorite villains of all time, one of my picks to go really far, guy has it all, is super fast, and if Captain America can take Deathstroke I assume Taskmaster will have no problem putting Slade down either.
A:Lady Shiva - shes hot. enough said.
B:Green Goblin - i always go with the original
C:Mastermind - he can make the soldiers believe hes mastermind, another soldier, or that hes not even there
D:Gentleman Ghost - smarter, able to go intangible

C:Omega Red - Its really hard to vote for someone if they keep changing their damn power
D:Taskmaster - can just do what slade does. and spiderman. and captain america. and-
A: Lady Shiva - Captain Nazi was taken out by guys without powers before, Lady Shiva can do it to.
B: Green Goblin - Because he is the original.
C: Purple Man - In what I've read, he has a better track record and is just more crafty. Absorbing Man - Won't be hurt here.
Bracket 6
A: Bullseye - No fatties.
B: Tombstone - Kicked ass in Daredevil.
C: Solomon Grundy - Is that much stronger than Red. Taskmaster - He could have a chance at winning even if Deathstroke had time to pull of a master plan, which he can't.
Match 5
A. Lady Shiva-Captain Nazi has been taken down by much lesser fighters than her.
B. Green Goblin-Accept no substitute.
C. Mastermind-His illusions will be able to trick anyone that Purple Man uses against him.
D. Gentleman Ghost-Smarter than Absorbing Man, plus a snappy dresser.
Match 6
A. Bullseye-Able to exploit Blob's weakness better than anyone.
B. Grodd-The G..G..G...Gorilla! wins.
C. Omega Red- Vote Change after rethinking the fight, due to the very vague level of power from grundy im going to give my vote to Red who is a very strong and skilled fighter.
D. Deathstroke-This was a tough match to pick a winner for. Like shoe said he is more familiar with the surroundings, so ill give this fight to him.

Fight 5
A - Captain Nazi: A super-human versus a human usually means the super-human will win no matter how devious Shiva is.
B - Green Goblin: Norman is the original. He'll hammer on the imposter.
C - Mastermind: Mastermind has illusion power that will stop any commands from Purple.
D - Gentleman Ghost: One word: Incorporeal
Fight 6
A - Bullseye: He's magic.
B - Grodd: Grodd still is stronger.
C - Solomon Grundy: He's undead therefore the pheremones should do nothing to him.
D - Taskmaster: The number of moves that Taskmaster has copied should allow him to take out Deathstroke eventually.

"He's sulking in his tent like Achilles! It's the Iliad?...from Homer?! READ A BOOK!!" -Handy
Bracket 5
Match A: Lady Shiva-pinnacle of martial arts against the guy killed by Catman
Match B: Green Goblin-orginal plus has actual superpowers
Match C: Mastermind-his illusions allow him to divert Purple's commands
Match Gentleman Ghost-should be able to outsmart and outlast absorbing man
Bracket 6
Match A: Bullseye-although I'm tempted to vote against him cause ANOTHER ADAMANTIUM SKELETON COME ON. Can you buy them at Walmart now?
Match B: Grodd-smarter and stronger even without his psychic deal
Match C: Solomon Grundy-undead and loving it
Match Taskmaster-fighting styles Captain America+Batman+all of Marvel and the ability to mimic their weapons=win
A- Shiva: Captain Nazi is a horrible name, Captain Communism and Captain Capitalism would also lose this match, no matter what their super powers.
B- Green Goblin: Old school wins.
C- Mastermind: His abilities can counter any and everything Purps does.
D- Stalemate. If Ghost ever goes corporeal, he loses.
Bracket 6:
A- Bullseye: Throws office supplies in the blob's nostrils and mouth/throat, causing him to choke to death.
B- Grodd: /shrug
C- Omega Red: Tentacle through the eye to the brain= losing Grundy. Also, we have no idea what level Grundy is at, and that makes for bad future matches.
D- Taskmaster: He's not retarded and he is more skilled than Deathstroke. Lack of planning time means Slade loses.
Fight 5
A - Shiva: Haven't a clue about either, but Captain apparently can be taken out by tramps and winos. And Catman.
B - Green Goblin: Beats his pale imitation.
C - Purple Man: Commands everyone on the base who isn't Mastermind to commit suicide and destroy their weapons, then hunts down Mastermind and beats him to death with a shovel.
D - Absorbing Man: Because I'm really tired of the 'can go intangible' get out clause.
Fight 6
A - Bullseye: Ballpoint pen to the eye.
B - Grodd: In a straight cage match Grodd is stronger and will come out on top.
C - Omega Red: The pheromones won't affect Grundy, but it's not the only weapon Red has in his arsenal.
D - Deathstroke: For all of Taskmaster's vaunted powers he still gets beaten up by second-stringers like Moonknight and Spider-Woman.
1. Captain Nazi - I nominated the guy. I gots to rock the vote for him.
2. Green Goblin - Hobgoblin is a pale imitation of the true Goblin. And less nuts.
3. Mastermind - A close match, but anybody who can keep the fucking Phoenix in line is gonna come out on top.
4. Gentleman Ghost - dude messed up the whole JSA. Creel can't touch him - literally.
Bracket 6
1. Bullseye - Nothing moves the Blob. Moving the Blob is for suckers, though. Stab stab.
2. Grodd - superpowered evil apes are all the rage in Paris this season.
3. Omega Red - It pains me to vote for Omega Red, but Grundy's goin' down.
4. Deathstroke - Taskmaster is cool and all, and he has a nice bag of tricks, but Slade is the real deal.
A- Lady Shiva: She has taken down superpowered people with ease. Also, Captain Nazi is a huge tool, an idiot, and he got himself hurt by Catman and fucking killed by the Red Hood. Lady Shiva is more dangerous and skilled than the both of them put together.
B- Green Goblin: Yeah, pretty devious and stuff.
C- Mastermind: He can easily turn Purple Man's powers and tactics around against him.
D- Gentleman Ghost: Kicked the ass of the JSA, much smarter than Absorbing Man, can't be touched by him. And Absorbing Man can't absorb the powers of non-constructed beings.
Bracket 6:
A- Bullseye: Knife to the eye.
B- Grodd: Much smarter and stronger than Tombstone. Seriously. Tombstone can barely lift a car or some shit, Grodd can do that easily.
C- Grundy: There's not a whole lot that Omega Red can do to Grundy. Pheromones don't work, and Grundy is generally much stronger than Omega Red.
D- Taskmaster: Much, much more versatile, and a much, much better fighter because, fuck, he's a fucking monster when it comes to fighting skill.
A: Lady Shiva. If Catman can take Nazi out, Shiva can triple take him out.
B: Green Goblin. Always go for the original.
C: Mastermind. Being able to tell soldiers what to see is more powerful than telling them what to do. Gentleman Ghost. Brains > Brawn.
Bracket 6:
A: Bullseye. Blob is one of my two noms, but I gotta go for the rubber ball to the throat here.
B: Grodd. Stronger and smarter.
C: Omega Red. Without more specifics on how strong Grundy is now, I'd say Red's tentacles and somewhat smarter brain gives him the advantage. Taskmaster. He's so dreamy.
Bracket 5
A - Capt. Nazi: In the comics he was a villain for Capt Marvel for God's sake!
B - Green Goblin: Classic coke beats New coke
C - Mastermind: I think he is more clever than Purple Man. That's what he does man! Screw with people!
D - Gentleman Ghost: Took on the whole JSA. Can summon ghosts, fly, and it seems like his attacks can ignore "armor".
Bracket 6
A: Blob: I have seen the guy get sliced by magic swords! And what did he do? Held them in his fat, grabbed the two guys slicing him and smashed them together. BE may pike him full of holes, but I think he eventually gets his hands on him and snaps him in two.
B - Grodd: Way more agility, and has feet he can use like hands!
C - Grundy: I don't thin Reds powers will work. Grundy gets ahold of a tentacle, and slams red back and forth like a buggs bunny cartoon
D - Deathstroke: I just think his brain will pull him through. But man, I would have loved for both of these guys to move on.
A- Lady Shiva: When in doubt, I find it easiest to agree with Spectre-X. I don't know much about either character, but from what I gather from the pre-fight debate is that Shiva would win.
B- Green Goblin: In a fight where they're evenly matched, Green Goblin wins for being a far crazier and smarter form of evil. He will fuck up Hobgoblin in ways we can't even imagine.
C- Purple Man: It just seems to me that direct control over peoples minds is > illusions. As long as he plays his cards right, he wins. He just has to be as smart or smarter than Mastermind.
D- Gentleman Ghost: He'll do you proper.
Bracket 6:
A- Bullseye: This is so one-sided it's sad.
B- Gorilla Grodd: Not only stronger, but a lot more intelligent. He'll outfight Tombstone no problem.
C- Solomon Grundy: Assuming his average level of strength, of course. Grundy gets tricky with his
D- Deathstroke: The only reason I'm giving this to Deathstroke is the homefield advantage. He wouldn't win against Taskmaster in a straight-up fight, but Slade has a much better idea of what toys Batman has and how to use them.
Match 5:
A: Captain Nazi - He's like.... Nazi Superman.
B: Green Goblin - As much as I hate Norman, he's the original
C: Purple Man - Purple Man will find a way, He's just so brutal.
-edit-
Or as Bogart put it.... "Commands everyone on the base who isn't Mastermind to commit suicide and destroy their weapons, then hunts down Mastermind and beats him to death with a shovel. "
Gentleman Ghost - Brute Force VS a Ghost....
Match 6:
A: Bullseye - HES IN AN OFFICE. Basically a full armory for him.
B: Tombstone- Tombstone rocks.
C: Omega Red - Red is pretty badass, he fucks up Wolverine for fuck sakes. Taskmaster - Taskmaster is the shit, he can do anything
A - Lady Shiva - she will make short work of Captain Nazi in this one
B - Green Goblin - Always go with the original.
C - Purple Man - From what I've read in the debate threads, I will have to give it to him
D - Gentleman Ghost - Absorbing Man, with all of his potential, can be outsmarted very easily. Not the smartest of villians unfortunately.
Fight 6
A - Bullseye - No way he loses to the blob. He will find a paperclip and kill the Blob
B - Tombstone - Gorilla is really limited on his powers here, and be out of his element.
C - Solomon Grundy - I was also born on a Monday. Tis true.
D - Deathstroke. Probably the toughest choice here, but this was my initial thought, and I'm gonna stick with it.
Match 5:
A: Captain Nazi - He's like.... Nazi Superman.
B: Green Goblin - As much as I hate Norman, he's the original

I agree. Except for 5A. Vote goes to Shiva on that one. She can take Captain Nazi without breaking a sweat.
A - Captain Nazi: He has superstrength and can fly. She doesnt, and can't. I know this guy is no brain surgeon, but he should be smart enough to just drag her off the side of the Helicarrier and drop her.
B - Green Goblin: In a fight where both guys have very similar powers and weapons, you give the W to the crazy one.
C - MasterMind: Pretty evenly matched, but I just think MM's version of the mindfuck powers work a bit better.
D - Absorbing Man: If this guy can take shots from Thor and not go down, GG is going to have a hard time even hurting him. Also, I don't want to see a repeat of the "Shadowcat debacle". Intangibility powers are fucking stupid in head-to-head fight contests.
Bracket #6
A - Bullseye: Watching a fat guy choke to death on a mess of paperclips and rubber bands would probably be pretty damn funny.
B - Tombstone: Without his mental powers, Grodd is just a smart, strong gorilla. Unimpressive. It would come down to trading punches, and Tombstone could take a lot more punishment than Grodd.
C - Omega Red: Solomon Grundy, born on a --- OH SWEET CHRIST, there's a tentacle in my eye! It's going through my fucking head!
D - Taskmaster: Versatility and power-duplicating machine too much for Deathstroke to handle.
A - Captain Nazi: On a heli-carrier + can fly. Besides, he could probably just destroy the helicarrier's ability to airborne and he'd be the only one to survive the resulting crash.
B - Green Goblin: ACCEPT... NO... SUBSTITUTE!!!
C - Purple Man: Mastermind may be powerful, but you do NOT mess with the purple man!
D - Absorbing Man: He fights THOR. Plus, intangibility powers are the second lamest powerset in comics, right behind 'probability manipulation(scarlet witch/longshot)". Bleh... LAME!
Bracket #6
A - Bullseye: Blob is a bruiser but he's stupid and 3 seconds after the fight begins he'll be blind. It's gonna take a while for bullseye to kill him, but he'll do it. Damn thats gonna be messy.
B - Grodd: Monkeys make me laugh. Tee hee
C - Omega Red: I don't really like omega red but grundy's powers vary WAY too much. I'm just gonna assume he's at a low power level so we don't have to fucking speculate anymore.
D - Taskmaster: If they were starting really far apart in the batcave then Deathstroke probably could have hid and killed taskmaster with a suprise attack since he knows the place better. Taskmaster's my boy, though, so I'm gonna assume they start within sight of each other. Taskmaster will take him apart piece by piece in a straight up fight.

A: Cap'n N. He can probably just take out the carrier as many people have said.
B: Green Goblin. Because he did it FIRST, dammit.
C: Mastermind. Illusions are VERY effective shit. Ghost. MONOCLE.
6:
A: Bullseye. STAPLER
B: Grodd. He's a Gorilla Gorilla Gorilla.
C: Solomon Grundy. Superstrong zombie-plant man? DO WANT Taskmaster. Because he is one of the most adaptable fighters in comics god dammit
A - Lady Shiva - Better than Catman
B - Green Goblin - So crazy
C - Purple Man - Tossup here. I like Purple Man better.
D - Gentleman Ghost - Not an idiot.
Fight 6
A - Bullseye - All the way, baby
B - Tombstone - Grodd'd win if he was allowed to use his powers
C - Solomon Grundy - Zombie plant dude is pretty awesome
D - Taskmaster - Look this is a physical battle, and Taskmaster is a better fighter.
A - Lady Shiva- The way this forum goes, Hitler in a monkey suit would best the rest of the villians. This is a vote against the Third Reich and for good old fashioned assassin ladies.
B - Green Goblin - If he can ruin Spiderman's Life for 30 years while being dead, he can certainly ruin Hobgoblins shit.
C - Mastermind - Is a vote for hot red heads in quasi bondage gear.
D - Gentleman Ghost - A vote for class.
Bracket 6
A - Bullseye - I love the Blob, but he'd need to land on Bullseye to even have a chance, and he'll be blind and choking by then.
B - Grodd- Monkey in a cage, come on. That's home field advantage right there.
C -Grundy - Is an unkillable zombie tree thing. Completely immune to anything that Omega Red can dish out.
D - Deathstroke - Is a vote for Ron Pearlman. How this hasn't been a factor, I'll never know.
A- Lady Shiva: With all the Superman analogues running around the DCU, every villain is at least a little prepared to fight the invulnerability/strength/speed combination of abilities. Shiva, moreso than anyone else, will have a sound strategy just for such a fight.
And it's Captain Nazi, who has already been beaten by two non-metas. He doesn't have a chance against the strongest non-meta fighter in the world.
B- Green Goblin: Rather than being a mere mercenary, Norman will kill you and then knock up your girlfriend. Hobgoblin's screwed.
C- Mastermind: Cast an illusion to change Purple Man's commands and the people under his command will hear "Shoot Purple Man," and do just that.
D- Gentleman Ghost: Creel's only good for smashing, and smashing isn't a sound strategy for fighting a ghost.
Fight 6
A- Bullseye: The environment is clearly suited for him. Tons of tiny items designed to capitalize on Blob's vulnerabilities and no way for Blob to even catch the speedier Bullseye.
B- Grodd: Both are super-strong, but super-strong means more for a gorilla than it does for a street thug. Tombstone isn't invulnerable either. His skin may be tough, but shattering his bones should be no problem.
C- Grundy: Red is reliant on powers that'll have no effect on an undead plant. Before he can design a new strategy, a big chalky hand is wrapped around his head.
D- Taskmaster: Evil Batman needs time to prepare, especially for an opponent as versatile as this.
Posts
A - Captain Nazi: As much as I like Shiva, there's been instances where she's been beaten but other non-superpowered folks.
B - Green Goblin: The knock-off doesn't stand a chance against Norman.
C - Mastermind: Jason has kept the entire X-Men team in chaos and kept Jean Grey under a ruse for a while. Wish a lot of these fights were like this one though, Purple's a solid contender.
D - Gentleman Ghost: Well... he can't be hit. He'll just outlast Absorbing.
Fight 6
A - Bullseye: Heh, the Blob is going to lose his eyes.
B - Grodd: Tougher fight without his psychic abilities, but in a cage match, he should still do fine.
C - Solomon Grundy: Being undead should negate Omega's tentacles and tough enough to stand the rest.
D - Deathstroke: Taskmaster's a bad ass, no denying it, but Slade's got so many other abilities, one of which being a tactician. Plus, they're in Batman's cave... he should be a little more at home.
fight 1:Captain Nazi(He's on superman level and he's a nazi
fight2:Green goblin(In the end it will come down to the healing factor
fight3:Mastermind(Just make himself look like a general and tell all the soldiers to open fire on purp)
fight4:Absorbing man(I honestly don;t know why)
Bracket6
fight1:Bullseye(Eye skewer FTW)
fight2:Gorilla Grood(Overpowers tombstone on a couple levels really)
fight3:Omega Red(I think the electricution and the death vapors can still knock Grundy out)
fight4Taskmaster(:You want badass? I'll give you badass.)
A: Lady Shiva - here's knives in your eyes.
B: Green Goblin - Hobby's more brutal, but Gobby's more clever.
C: Mastermind - I think the blanket illusions will turn Purple Man's orders against him
Gentleman Ghost - If he's REALLY a ghost, and I dunno if he is, he could possess Absorbing Man, and cause him to absorb the properties of oxygen, and dissipate into the airstream. the air would carry out of the canyon before he could reassemble, and he would be disqualified. Pretty neat, huh?
Bracket 6:
A: Blob - This is really sort of a pity vote, but I think Blob, if he used his full potential, could wallop the hell out of Bullseye.
B: Grodd - He'd fuck the guy up, he's a huge gorilla with super strength.
C: Omega Red - I think his death factor would work on Grundy, it would just take longer than on a normal human. And I think he's good enough to hold him off until it does.
Deathstroke - One took out the Justice League, one took out the Avengers. This is a coin-toss match if I ever saw one, but I'm giving it to Deathstroke because he's smarter and more familiar with his surroundings here.
a) Captain Nazi - He's loaded with hard hitting powers, and his name's Captain Nazi. He's good to go for the next round.
b) Green Goblin - He does it all better and crazier. The Hobgoblins fun, but at the end of the day he's just a knock off.
c) Mastermind - Fantastic fight, but at the end of the day he's just more versatile. No one will be able to find him, and it's only a matter of time before one of his soldiers shoots Purple Man from beyond the range of his powers.
d) Absorbing Man - He fights Thor. The Gentleman Ghost's claim to fame is being fancy. At the end of the day, he can't really do anything to hurt Absorbing Man, and all he needs to do is slip up once to lose.
Bracket 6
a) Bullseye - The Blob's great, but he's taking a paperclip through the eye or a rubberband ball down the throat before he even knows what's going on.
b) Tombstone - He's more of a brawler. The limit on Grodd's power will put him off his game enough to give Tombstone the edge.
c) Omega Red - Baring a clarification I missed, Grundy's been more whipping boy than threat lately. I'll assume he's more at the Batman threat level than Superman, so Omega takes the win.
d) Taskmaster - Too unpredictable, and his bag of tricks gives him an edge.
a) Captain Nazi - How many Nazi's are in this tourney? Oh well, he has a higher power set than shiva. Can easily toss her off.
b) Green Goblin - The original vs the pretender, I wonder who wins? Here's a hint: Hobgoblin was never the brightest bulb.
c) Mastermind - Purple man doesn't realize he's sending his men to attack himself. oopsies.
d) Gentleman Ghost - Monocle powers activate! Oh yeah, and being smarter than a bag of bricks helps.
Bracket 6
a) Bullseye - EVERYTHING IS A FUCKING WEAPON HOLY SHIT
b) Tombstone - He's more down and dirty. Since Grodd can't use his best asset, Tombstone pulls out the win.
c) Solomon Grundy - Want pants too! He'll tear up Red and Red can't do shit to drain Grundy.
D) TASKMASTER - He's like fighting the Marvel U. and has that energy projector to boot. Can move faster than Deathstroke. It's a close, but Taskmaster wins this one.
A) Captain Nazi - fuck, I don't know, I flipped a coin
Green Goblin - Listen, you do not fuck with Norman Osborne.
C) Mastermind - Can probably turn Purple Man's own machinations against him.
D) Gentleman Ghost - He's got class going for him. And I don't think the Absorbing Man was ever classified as smart
Bracket 6
A) Bullseye - Blob just isn't smart enough to corral Bullseye, I think
Tombstone - He's not just strong. Fucker's quick.
C) Omega Red - He's just more versatile.
D) Taskmaster - I think they're pretty evenly matched. So I'm going the pussy way out, and since I've never liked Deathstroke's costume, I'm going with Taskmaster. (Shut up, I wouldn't do this if Deathstroke was fighting the fucking Riddler or something)
1. Nazi, Dude got stabbed in the eyes with hypos and is still truckin'
2. Norman, Arguably one of the greatest villians ever. Took the glider to the stomach, he can take Hob.
3. Purps, fucked with Cage and lived.
4. Gentleman Ghost, Creel is to goddamned asinine to take on refined manners. Also, Ecto Cooler.
Sixas:
1. Bullseye, took on Punisher-Lived. Murdock-Lived. Elekra-Lived. Parker-lived. Hit by a semi? Lived.
2. Grodd. Anyone that can go toe to toe with a Flash deserves mention.
3. Solomon Grundy, born on a Monday,
Christened on a stark and stormy Tuesday,
Married on a gray and grisly Wednesday,
Took ill on a mild and mellow Thursday,
Grew worse on a bright and breezy Friday,
Died on a gay and glorious Saturday,
Buried on a baking, blistering Sunday.
That was the end of Solomon Grundy.
4. Taskmaster. As on the fence as I want to stay, I gotta give it to him. He just has more versitility in this fight.
A)Lady Shiva: Captain Nazi is a punk, Shiva will put him down.
B)Green Goblin: He's not only zany he KILLED GWEN!
C)Mastermind: His control over the soldiers will prove superior = victory.
D)Gentleman Ghost: I don't know him at all but he sounds more than capable of putting Absorbing Man down. Who isn't though really?
Bracket 6
A)Blob: A tough one, but inside a store with no escape its only a matter of time before Blob manages to squash Bullseye.
B)Grodd: Tombstone is cool but Grodd is fucking Grodd yo.
C)Omega Red: More resourceful, more cunning(duh) and just more of a badass in the end.
D)Taskmaster: Deathstroke isn't a push over but Taskmaster just has that special something that will get the job done here. Very close fight.
1. Lady Shiva: On one hand, he's a Nazi. On the other, she's a fucking goddess of combat, and didn't Catwoman take down Nazi?
2. Green Goblin: O.G., what what
3. Mastermind: Illusions.
4. Gentleman Ghost: Ghosts are pretty damn scary, and he's pretty damn classy.
bracket 6
1. Bullseye: This.. Wow.
2. Grodd: I must admit, I was convinced the moment I saw he was a gorilla. But even aside from that, I'm sure he could go all Congo on Tombstone
3. Omega Red: Okay, he's born on a monday, but Omega Red's pretty much cooler than every day of the week. Maybe not wednesday, but still.
4. Deathstroke: the god damned Terminator. A good fight it'll be, but Mr. Wilson comes out on top in the end.
A)Lady Shiva: The other dude is a nazi. You don't want to hate the jews, do you?
B)Green Goblin: Any goblin after Green is just the poor-mans version of the real thing.
C)Mastermind: C'mon...just C'mon.
D)Gentleman Ghost: I really like Absorbing Man...but there isn't shit someone can do to a ghost.
Bracket 6
A) Bullseye - Banana down the throat, hell any item is a weapon to Bullseye.
B)Grodd: Grodd is Grodd. He'll win simply because he's much smarter.
C)Omega Red: Has no problem ripping an old ladies head off and cramming it down Solomon's throat. Plus he's Russian.
D)Taskmaster: Taskmaster has far too much versatility and combat skills to be taken down by...almost anyone outside of "omega level" mutants/superheroes.
Here here! I concur!
A)Lady Shiva Because a guy called "Captain Nazi" is pretty much custom made to have the shit kicked out of him.
Green Goblin You can't beat the original.
C)Purple Man I think his mind control will be able to override MM's illusions.
D)Gentleman Ghost Smarter and a ghost, but most importantly Classier.
Bracket 6
A) Bullseye One of the people best skilled to take out the blob.
Grodd I don't know what to say, he's a super strong highly intelligent gorilla. That seems like reason enough.
C)Omega Red Grundy is far too inconsistant in his power levels. And Omega would easily out maneuver him and tear him apart anyway.
D)Taskmaster Deathstroke will have a very hard time predicting Taskmaster's movements with him switching styles around.
A)Lady Shiva: Nazi's are the ultimate show-off fodder.
B)Green Goblin: Pfft. Hobgoblin. PFFT.
C)Mastermind: "Shoot that section of wall". Hey I know I'll make him think I'm at THIS section of wall. When that's where he is.
D)Gentleman Ghost: Unless Absorbing Man can absorb a chance, he's fucked.
Bracket 6
A)Bullseye - YOU'LL SHOOT YOUR EYE OUT.
B)Tombstone. I dislike Grodd.
C)SOLOMON GRUNDY. WILL TAKE OMEGA REDS PANTS.
D)Taskmaster. He can learn on the fly as to what Deathstrokes plans or fighting style are, giving him the advantage.
Almost Shoe, almost.
PSN: OrneryRooster

TASKMASTER- FUCK THIS WAS A TOUGH ONE
A: Captain Nazi - He's like Superman, but angry and German.

Match 6:
A: Bullseye - Pens in the eyes, erasers in the throat, etc.
B: Grodd - Smarter and way stronger than Tombstone.
C: Omega Red - Red is much more powerful than Grundy.
Taskmaster - Much bigger badass than the Deadpool rip-off.
A.Lady Shiva: Shiva 10 kunai in the Nazi's eyes, if Catman can do I assume someone that is consider one of the top martial artist in DC could do it with ease
B.Hobgoblin: Green Goblin is all tricky and crazy, but Hobs gets down to buisness faster, his whole thing is he's norm without the obessesion, not as wacky brain smarts, but I imagine he also won't have a lot of elaborate things to tell Norman has he skewers him
C. Mastermind: Just can't vote for a rapist, of any kind, plus Mastermind is soooo much smarter than Kilgrave and stylish to boot
D. Gentleman Ghost: So much smarter than Absorbing Man, love his power set, look and demeanor
Match 6:
A.Bullseye: Eyes, Ears, Mouth, all chocked filled with anything and everything that Lester can get his hands on
B. Grodd: Flash villians get auto votes from me
C. Solomon Grundy: Guy could probably tear Omega Red in two
D. Taskmaster: one of my favorite villains of all time, one of my picks to go really far, guy has it all, is super fast, and if Captain America can take Deathstroke I assume Taskmaster will have no problem putting Slade down either.
A:Lady Shiva - shes hot. enough said.
B:Green Goblin - i always go with the original
C:Mastermind - he can make the soldiers believe hes mastermind, another soldier, or that hes not even there
D:Gentleman Ghost - smarter, able to go intangible
match 6
A:Bullseye - this is some david/goliath shit, but with staplers instead of rocks
B:Grodd: - smater, probably stronger than tombstone
C:Omega Red - Its really hard to vote for someone if they keep changing their damn power
D:Taskmaster - can just do what slade does. and spiderman. and captain america. and-
A: Lady Shiva - Captain Nazi was taken out by guys without powers before, Lady Shiva can do it to.
B: Green Goblin - Because he is the original.
C: Purple Man - In what I've read, he has a better track record and is just more crafty.
Absorbing Man - Won't be hurt here.
Bracket 6
A: Bullseye - No fatties.
B: Tombstone - Kicked ass in Daredevil.
C: Solomon Grundy - Is that much stronger than Red.
Taskmaster - He could have a chance at winning even if Deathstroke had time to pull of a master plan, which he can't.
A. Lady Shiva-Captain Nazi has been taken down by much lesser fighters than her.
B. Green Goblin-Accept no substitute.
C. Mastermind-His illusions will be able to trick anyone that Purple Man uses against him.
D. Gentleman Ghost-Smarter than Absorbing Man, plus a snappy dresser.
Match 6
A. Bullseye-Able to exploit Blob's weakness better than anyone.
B. Grodd-The G..G..G...Gorilla! wins.
C. Omega Red- Vote Change after rethinking the fight, due to the very vague level of power from grundy im going to give my vote to Red who is a very strong and skilled fighter.
D. Deathstroke-This was a tough match to pick a winner for. Like shoe said he is more familiar with the surroundings, so ill give this fight to him.
A - Captain Nazi: A super-human versus a human usually means the super-human will win no matter how devious Shiva is.
B - Green Goblin: Norman is the original. He'll hammer on the imposter.
C - Mastermind: Mastermind has illusion power that will stop any commands from Purple.
D - Gentleman Ghost: One word: Incorporeal
Fight 6
A - Bullseye: He's magic.
B - Grodd: Grodd still is stronger.
C - Solomon Grundy: He's undead therefore the pheremones should do nothing to him.
D - Taskmaster: The number of moves that Taskmaster has copied should allow him to take out Deathstroke eventually.
Match A: Lady Shiva-pinnacle of martial arts against the guy killed by Catman
Match B: Green Goblin-orginal plus has actual superpowers
Match C: Mastermind-his illusions allow him to divert Purple's commands
Match Gentleman Ghost-should be able to outsmart and outlast absorbing man
Bracket 6
Match A: Bullseye-although I'm tempted to vote against him cause ANOTHER ADAMANTIUM SKELETON COME ON. Can you buy them at Walmart now?
Match B: Grodd-smarter and stronger even without his psychic deal
Match C: Solomon Grundy-undead and loving it
Match Taskmaster-fighting styles Captain America+Batman+all of Marvel and the ability to mimic their weapons=win

WISHLIST
A- Shiva: Captain Nazi is a horrible name, Captain Communism and Captain Capitalism would also lose this match, no matter what their super powers.
B- Green Goblin: Old school wins.
C- Mastermind: His abilities can counter any and everything Purps does.
D- Stalemate. If Ghost ever goes corporeal, he loses.
Bracket 6:
A- Bullseye: Throws office supplies in the blob's nostrils and mouth/throat, causing him to choke to death.
B- Grodd: /shrug
C- Omega Red: Tentacle through the eye to the brain= losing Grundy. Also, we have no idea what level Grundy is at, and that makes for bad future matches.
D- Taskmaster: He's not retarded and he is more skilled than Deathstroke. Lack of planning time means Slade loses.
A - Shiva: Haven't a clue about either, but Captain apparently can be taken out by tramps and winos. And Catman.
B - Green Goblin: Beats his pale imitation.
C - Purple Man: Commands everyone on the base who isn't Mastermind to commit suicide and destroy their weapons, then hunts down Mastermind and beats him to death with a shovel.
D - Absorbing Man: Because I'm really tired of the 'can go intangible' get out clause.
Fight 6
A - Bullseye: Ballpoint pen to the eye.
B - Grodd: In a straight cage match Grodd is stronger and will come out on top.
C - Omega Red: The pheromones won't affect Grundy, but it's not the only weapon Red has in his arsenal.
D - Deathstroke: For all of Taskmaster's vaunted powers he still gets beaten up by second-stringers like Moonknight and Spider-Woman.

1. Captain Nazi - I nominated the guy. I gots to rock the vote for him.
2. Green Goblin - Hobgoblin is a pale imitation of the true Goblin. And less nuts.
3. Mastermind - A close match, but anybody who can keep the fucking Phoenix in line is gonna come out on top.
4. Gentleman Ghost - dude messed up the whole JSA. Creel can't touch him - literally.
Bracket 6
1. Bullseye - Nothing moves the Blob. Moving the Blob is for suckers, though. Stab stab.
2. Grodd - superpowered evil apes are all the rage in Paris this season.
3. Omega Red - It pains me to vote for Omega Red, but Grundy's goin' down.
4. Deathstroke - Taskmaster is cool and all, and he has a nice bag of tricks, but Slade is the real deal.
A- Lady Shiva: She has taken down superpowered people with ease. Also, Captain Nazi is a huge tool, an idiot, and he got himself hurt by Catman and fucking killed by the Red Hood. Lady Shiva is more dangerous and skilled than the both of them put together.
B- Green Goblin: Yeah, pretty devious and stuff.
C- Mastermind: He can easily turn Purple Man's powers and tactics around against him.
D- Gentleman Ghost: Kicked the ass of the JSA, much smarter than Absorbing Man, can't be touched by him. And Absorbing Man can't absorb the powers of non-constructed beings.
Bracket 6:
A- Bullseye: Knife to the eye.
B- Grodd: Much smarter and stronger than Tombstone. Seriously. Tombstone can barely lift a car or some shit, Grodd can do that easily.
C- Grundy: There's not a whole lot that Omega Red can do to Grundy. Pheromones don't work, and Grundy is generally much stronger than Omega Red.
D- Taskmaster: Much, much more versatile, and a much, much better fighter because, fuck, he's a fucking monster when it comes to fighting skill.
A: Lady Shiva. If Catman can take Nazi out, Shiva can triple take him out.
B: Green Goblin. Always go for the original.
C: Mastermind. Being able to tell soldiers what to see is more powerful than telling them what to do.
Gentleman Ghost. Brains > Brawn.
Bracket 6:
A: Bullseye. Blob is one of my two noms, but I gotta go for the rubber ball to the throat here.
B: Grodd. Stronger and smarter.
C: Omega Red. Without more specifics on how strong Grundy is now, I'd say Red's tentacles and somewhat smarter brain gives him the advantage.
Taskmaster. He's so dreamy.
A - Capt. Nazi: In the comics he was a villain for Capt Marvel for God's sake!
B - Green Goblin: Classic coke beats New coke
C - Mastermind: I think he is more clever than Purple Man. That's what he does man! Screw with people!
D - Gentleman Ghost: Took on the whole JSA. Can summon ghosts, fly, and it seems like his attacks can ignore "armor".
Bracket 6
A: Blob: I have seen the guy get sliced by magic swords! And what did he do? Held them in his fat, grabbed the two guys slicing him and smashed them together. BE may pike him full of holes, but I think he eventually gets his hands on him and snaps him in two.
B - Grodd: Way more agility, and has feet he can use like hands!
C - Grundy: I don't thin Reds powers will work. Grundy gets ahold of a tentacle, and slams red back and forth like a buggs bunny cartoon
D - Deathstroke: I just think his brain will pull him through. But man, I would have loved for both of these guys to move on.
A- Lady Shiva: When in doubt, I find it easiest to agree with Spectre-X. I don't know much about either character, but from what I gather from the pre-fight debate is that Shiva would win.
B- Green Goblin: In a fight where they're evenly matched, Green Goblin wins for being a far crazier and smarter form of evil. He will fuck up Hobgoblin in ways we can't even imagine.
C- Purple Man: It just seems to me that direct control over peoples minds is > illusions. As long as he plays his cards right, he wins. He just has to be as smart or smarter than Mastermind.
D- Gentleman Ghost: He'll do you proper.
Bracket 6:
A- Bullseye: This is so one-sided it's sad.
B- Gorilla Grodd: Not only stronger, but a lot more intelligent. He'll outfight Tombstone no problem.
C- Solomon Grundy: Assuming his average level of strength, of course. Grundy gets tricky with his
D- Deathstroke: The only reason I'm giving this to Deathstroke is the homefield advantage. He wouldn't win against Taskmaster in a straight-up fight, but Slade has a much better idea of what toys Batman has and how to use them.
A: Captain Nazi - He's like.... Nazi Superman.
B: Green Goblin - As much as I hate Norman, he's the original
C: Purple Man - Purple Man will find a way, He's just so brutal.
-edit-
Or as Bogart put it.... "Commands everyone on the base who isn't Mastermind to commit suicide and destroy their weapons, then hunts down Mastermind and beats him to death with a shovel. "
Gentleman Ghost - Brute Force VS a Ghost....
Match 6:
A: Bullseye - HES IN AN OFFICE. Basically a full armory for him.
B: Tombstone- Tombstone rocks.
C: Omega Red - Red is pretty badass, he fucks up Wolverine for fuck sakes.
Taskmaster - Taskmaster is the shit, he can do anything
A - Lady Shiva - she will make short work of Captain Nazi in this one
B - Green Goblin - Always go with the original.
C - Purple Man - From what I've read in the debate threads, I will have to give it to him
D - Gentleman Ghost - Absorbing Man, with all of his potential, can be outsmarted very easily. Not the smartest of villians unfortunately.
Fight 6
A - Bullseye - No way he loses to the blob. He will find a paperclip and kill the Blob
B - Tombstone - Gorilla is really limited on his powers here, and be out of his element.
C - Solomon Grundy - I was also born on a Monday. Tis true.
D - Deathstroke. Probably the toughest choice here, but this was my initial thought, and I'm gonna stick with it.
agreed, especially with the purple man argument
I agree. Except for 5A. Vote goes to Shiva on that one. She can take Captain Nazi without breaking a sweat.
3DS: 1607-3034-6970
A - Captain Nazi: He has superstrength and can fly. She doesnt, and can't. I know this guy is no brain surgeon, but he should be smart enough to just drag her off the side of the Helicarrier and drop her.
B - Green Goblin: In a fight where both guys have very similar powers and weapons, you give the W to the crazy one.
C - MasterMind: Pretty evenly matched, but I just think MM's version of the mindfuck powers work a bit better.
D - Absorbing Man: If this guy can take shots from Thor and not go down, GG is going to have a hard time even hurting him. Also, I don't want to see a repeat of the "Shadowcat debacle". Intangibility powers are fucking stupid in head-to-head fight contests.
Bracket #6
A - Bullseye: Watching a fat guy choke to death on a mess of paperclips and rubber bands would probably be pretty damn funny.
B - Tombstone: Without his mental powers, Grodd is just a smart, strong gorilla. Unimpressive. It would come down to trading punches, and Tombstone could take a lot more punishment than Grodd.
C - Omega Red: Solomon Grundy, born on a --- OH SWEET CHRIST, there's a tentacle in my eye! It's going through my fucking head!
D - Taskmaster: Versatility and power-duplicating machine too much for Deathstroke to handle.
A - Captain Nazi: On a heli-carrier + can fly. Besides, he could probably just destroy the helicarrier's ability to airborne and he'd be the only one to survive the resulting crash.
B - Green Goblin: ACCEPT... NO... SUBSTITUTE!!!
C - Purple Man: Mastermind may be powerful, but you do NOT mess with the purple man!
D - Absorbing Man: He fights THOR. Plus, intangibility powers are the second lamest powerset in comics, right behind 'probability manipulation(scarlet witch/longshot)". Bleh... LAME!
Bracket #6
A - Bullseye: Blob is a bruiser but he's stupid and 3 seconds after the fight begins he'll be blind. It's gonna take a while for bullseye to kill him, but he'll do it. Damn thats gonna be messy.
B - Grodd: Monkeys make me laugh. Tee hee
C - Omega Red: I don't really like omega red but grundy's powers vary WAY too much. I'm just gonna assume he's at a low power level so we don't have to fucking speculate anymore.
D - Taskmaster: If they were starting really far apart in the batcave then Deathstroke probably could have hid and killed taskmaster with a suprise attack since he knows the place better. Taskmaster's my boy, though, so I'm gonna assume they start within sight of each other. Taskmaster will take him apart piece by piece in a straight up fight.
A: Cap'n N. He can probably just take out the carrier as many people have said.
B: Green Goblin. Because he did it FIRST, dammit.
C: Mastermind. Illusions are VERY effective shit.
Ghost. MONOCLE.
6:
A: Bullseye. STAPLER
B: Grodd. He's a Gorilla Gorilla Gorilla.
C: Solomon Grundy. Superstrong zombie-plant man? DO WANT
Taskmaster. Because he is one of the most adaptable fighters in comics god dammit
Magic Online - Bertro
A - Lady Shiva - Better than Catman
B - Green Goblin - So crazy
C - Purple Man - Tossup here. I like Purple Man better.
D - Gentleman Ghost - Not an idiot.
Fight 6
A - Bullseye - All the way, baby
B - Tombstone - Grodd'd win if he was allowed to use his powers
C - Solomon Grundy - Zombie plant dude is pretty awesome
D - Taskmaster - Look this is a physical battle, and Taskmaster is a better fighter.
A - Lady Shiva- The way this forum goes, Hitler in a monkey suit would best the rest of the villians. This is a vote against the Third Reich and for good old fashioned assassin ladies.
B - Green Goblin - If he can ruin Spiderman's Life for 30 years while being dead, he can certainly ruin Hobgoblins shit.
C - Mastermind - Is a vote for hot red heads in quasi bondage gear.
D - Gentleman Ghost - A vote for class.
Bracket 6
A - Bullseye - I love the Blob, but he'd need to land on Bullseye to even have a chance, and he'll be blind and choking by then.
B - Grodd- Monkey in a cage, come on. That's home field advantage right there.
C -Grundy - Is an unkillable zombie tree thing. Completely immune to anything that Omega Red can dish out.
D - Deathstroke - Is a vote for Ron Pearlman. How this hasn't been a factor, I'll never know.
A- Lady Shiva: With all the Superman analogues running around the DCU, every villain is at least a little prepared to fight the invulnerability/strength/speed combination of abilities. Shiva, moreso than anyone else, will have a sound strategy just for such a fight.
And it's Captain Nazi, who has already been beaten by two non-metas. He doesn't have a chance against the strongest non-meta fighter in the world.
B- Green Goblin: Rather than being a mere mercenary, Norman will kill you and then knock up your girlfriend. Hobgoblin's screwed.
C- Mastermind: Cast an illusion to change Purple Man's commands and the people under his command will hear "Shoot Purple Man," and do just that.
D- Gentleman Ghost: Creel's only good for smashing, and smashing isn't a sound strategy for fighting a ghost.
Fight 6
A- Bullseye: The environment is clearly suited for him. Tons of tiny items designed to capitalize on Blob's vulnerabilities and no way for Blob to even catch the speedier Bullseye.
B- Grodd: Both are super-strong, but super-strong means more for a gorilla than it does for a street thug. Tombstone isn't invulnerable either. His skin may be tough, but shattering his bones should be no problem.
C- Grundy: Red is reliant on powers that'll have no effect on an undead plant. Before he can design a new strategy, a big chalky hand is wrapped around his head.
D- Taskmaster: Evil Batman needs time to prepare, especially for an opponent as versatile as this.
