It seems that Nita has a couple of more powers and I'm guessing she's got a bit more fighting experience so I'm going with her. Besides, she's hot! I wouldn't be able to fight her because I'd be staring to much and trying to ask her out. Then again, I don't know much about this Llyron dude, he may not even like hot, sexy women. :venom:

My point wasn't the match-up and that wasn't his reasoning for voting the way he did Sparta. His reason was he didn't want to jump on the bandwagon. Lame.

05-13-2006, 10:54 PM
I think it would be a landslide because in my opinion the Falcon hasn't been used to his full potential. From what I've seen of both characters, USAgent should win this matchup but maybe if the Falcon were written better my vote would have gone the other way. My two cents. :venom:

You say you would have voted Falcon anyway, yet you state that you chose to do so to not follow the bandwagon. Contradicting a little?
I really don't care, but you say two things. That's all.

What's to stop Kitty from picking up something, phasing it and when Meggan comes in to attack, stick it inside her and let it go? I think the pain from having a solid object fusing with your body on an atomic level would be too much for anyone. I'm sorry Meggan but Kitty wins this one. :venom:

Meggan's easily more powerful, however Kitty has shown herself to be immensely tactical in the past, she knows how to dip into her resources and pull out a win since 9 times out 10 she's facing off with people stronger than herself. I think she pulls a Vizh type win here with the phasing strikes.

Kitty has to breath. And she has to dephase in order to do so. If nothing else, her phasing limit is how long she can hold her breath.
Still, I say Shadowcat.

05-16-2006, 12:02 AM
She didn't use to have to dephase. The only time she had to hold her breath was when she passed through solid matter.

Kitty. It's an incredibly deadly power and she's an experienced X-man and she's ninja (litterally). I'm confident she's resourcefull enough to pull off this win.

If she's intangible, wouldn't that make her weightless as well? If she has no weight how would she fall through her bed? She can "walk" through the air when phased so I'm guessing that she is weightless when phased. This of course brings up the question "Why doesn't she float away when she phases?" If she were a DC character she'd probably use the "phase force" an imaginary force that's the answer to all of our phasing questions, but since she's not I guess gravity has some kind of effect on her. Much the same way viruses don't float into space, they have to have some weight even though its not enough to register on any of our instruments. At least none that I know of. :venom:
DJWolfmanjack
05-16-2006, 04:45 AM
As far as i know she got hit with an energy spear thrown by harpoon which disrupted her powers and she couldn't regain her solidity until Doctor Doom and Reed Richards helped her but she could then only resume a solid form through concentration.

That's my point, I only used viruses as an example because they are living things, but its the same principle. If she's got no weight while intangible, how could she "fall" through her bed while asleep? She should just stay right where she laid. Now say Colossus were to pick up her bed while she were sleeping, then she should pass through it, or it would pass through her to be more accurate. :venom:

1. Doom is one of the most rescourceful villains in all of comic book kingdom
2. He's battled the mightest of heroes and villains
3. Next to Dr. Strange he is one of most powerful practioners of the mystical arts. That alone should secure a victory for him.

XFanTim
05-16-2006, 06:45 PM
I don't think it'd be that easy a battle, but I'd still give it to Doom.
He doesn't generally use his magical abilities, so I'm assuming he's pretty much relying on his armor. But can't his armor produce forcefields that can stand up to Thor, etc.? I'd say that's good enough to hold off Sinister's attacks (energy blasts, etc.) Doom's blasts won't do much to Sinister either (Bishop blew a whole straight through him and it didn't slow him down), but eventually maybe the cumulative damage would have some sort of effect. Or maybe Doom's blasts eventually bring a building down on Sinister, and even for him it might take a while to ooze out from under that.
So, neither has a great way to hurt each other, meaning a long, drawn-out battle . . . but one which I'd say Doom eventually wins.
If this were a prep-time match, Doom would win more easily (except Sinister would probably be smart enough to avoid the fight, at best just sending a bunch of his underlings to get trounced by Doom.)

Agreed, but that's usually because he has prep time and can in other ways harm his opponets. Since he can't with Sinister, I say that he would resort to his magical abilitis after a short battle. Resulting in a victory for Doom

05-16-2006, 06:52 PM
Exactly what I'm thinking. Doom is the man and he kicks people's ass because he usually goes looking for them or he draws them to him via a plan. So he always got something specially fitted to that person to take them down. Sinister's usually the same way but his body is ALWAYS prepared to tear someone down and unlike Doom, Sinister is damn near immortal with his regenerative powers. When it comes to intelligence, Sinister is by no means dwarfed by Doom, Sinister creates life in a dish so I don't need to remind anyone that's just one of the things he does for fun. Add onto that fact that he has that concussive force that usually levels most of anything and we've got a score card. Doom: Intelligence. Sinister: Range, Durability, and his healing factor and concussive force. I'm a total Doombot when it comes to most of the guys going head to head with him, but any damage he does will be repaired in a matter of seconds, minutes at most. He effectively has no way to put Sinister down for good and no, he doesn't carry around the implements necessary to take down Sinister, unless he's taken to carry Scott Summers in his ass pocket.

I'll give this to Mr. Sinister. Without prep time, Sinister will overpower Doom. Telekinesis and telepathy combined with his energy blasts will be a powerful combination of attacks. Sinister is also highly resistant to injury and can regenerate himself. It would be a tough fight, but Mr. Sinister would take it.

I'm gonna go with Doom. Like what was stated earlier, magic. Do we even know what kinda effect such powers would have on Sinister? The fact that we don't means it could be the deciding factor. Telepathy is blocked out because the armor has defenses against such things. He can keep a demon out of his head he can keep Sinister out as well. I just gotta give it to Doom. The guys taken down freakin extradimensional entities with god like power. It wont be easy, but I'm sure he can take Sinister.

Hmm... If it werent for Doom's magic i'd give this one to Sinister for sure. He's got too many advantages without prep time. But Magic is a big factor and it tends to trump almost anything that isnt magic. Also Doom's not just some second rate magician. He's next in line to be sorcerer supreme.
THAT kinda magic, I think would tip the scales.
Doom. (but it'd be close)
rodhulk
05-16-2006, 10:22 PM
Tough, but I'll give it to Doom with his smarts finding a way to win, even without prep.
And his magic really could be the deciding factor. Despite not having prep, his magic still works, and if it can affect Sinister, then this really helps Doom stand the better chance.

I think Sinister would win the first battle, but I don't think Doom would really lose. I think he'd find some way of escaping once he figured out that he couldn't beat Sinister. Then he'd go off, do a little reaserch and come back and beat Sinister like a dog in the street. First victory (the one that counts here) goes to Sinister though. He's got too much going for him in a surprise encounter. :venom:

Doom would ultimately win. He could do enough damage to Sinister over time that would eventually overload his molecular repairs.:)
Doom is an excellent manipulator and a resourceful fellow, however it will not aid him under this situation. Mr. Sinister simply has too much raw power at his disposal for doom to win. Eventually, Doom's Armour's Weapons will be exhausted while Sinister still enjoys the benefits of his natural mutant power.
Although it pains me to say so, Doom may not survive. I vote for sinister.

Doom accomplished those things using resources and prep that he doesn't have in this fight.

Mr. Sinister created the being that is destined and skilled enough to kill Apocalypse. He faced both the X-Men and the X-Factor. He was powerful enough to erase Jean Grey's memory. He can create superhuman abilities and can enhance and control mutant abilities. He is also a skilled psychologist, making him a skilled manipulator.
Doom is an egomaniac. Sinister can capitalize on that.

Magic counts for a lot but just like with Dr. Strange, Doom would need to know what spells to use against Sinister and that takes prep time. Besides I don't think he's got every spell memorized anyway, plus I'm sure some of them need artifacts or something to focus them. :venom:

But Doom is far, far behind Strange when it comes to magic. If he were anywhere remotely close to Strange's level, he'd crush the Fantastic Four in under four seconds. Anyone who thinks otherwise hasn't got a clue how powerful Strange is.
Doom needed a power up from some demons to make himself a serious magical threat to the FF in "Unthinkable".

Yes I've seen it, you're right he is that far behind. But my point it, Sisnter=No magic or defense against it. Doom= a decent sorcerer in his own right.

05-18-2006, 02:04 PM
But the thing you're forgetting is that the magic that Doom and Strange both wield is the type of magic that requires incantations, artifacts, amulets and sometimes even small ceremonies. They don't use some silly power where all they have to do is say the words backwards. Since this is a totally impromptu battle, Doom doesn't have the time to gather anything or prepare the proper spells. If he had time I have no doubt that Doom would emerge VICTORious, but since he doesn't I had to give it to Sinister. :venom:

Even though he hasn't used it in a while I can imagine someone like Doom letting his magical ablilities getting rusty. And factor in that we are unclear as to the effect of magic on Sinister I think that it would be the X factor to the Doom the winning edge.

The symbiote suit might actually hurt Pete more than it would help. Since Iron Man has everything including the Foreman grill in his armor it wouldn't be that hard to take spidey out. If he doesn't know about the sonics Pete could bring him to his knees.
Plus Tony would probably hold back against Spidey I doubt he would be willing to kill him or seriously injure him.
Still though I have to say Stark wins this.

I see Spidey taking this fight because he has the brains, and he thinks that way. Spider Man often takes on foes that are stronger, faster, or smarter than himself. he out works them. and remember, Spidey is a genius too. Spider-Man does think in a way to say "Okay, IF I came against him, how would I take out Iron Man, also I do believe he is less merciful when wearing the symbiote (I could be wrong) so there's another edge.
I vote Spidey.

Iron Man has fought Venom and knows about its weaknesses. I dont have an issue number (that part of my collection is in another country) but it was the point where alot of self righteous hero/vigilante types were trying to take Stark or his company down for being unethical or something like that (its been a long time since I read it)
Besides Tony's armor is so advanced now I think he'd hold his own without knowing the weaknesses. But he does so its a moot point

Simple fact of the matter is that against a foe that doesn't have any type of sound based weapon, Symbiote Spidey is so much tougher to beat. Against someone like Stark who always seems to have sonics equipped in his armor, it makes Peter weaker. It's not as if the symbiote just falls off and Peter continues unfazed, Peter feels that same pain. Effectively crippling him and Tony can and will multi-task. Sonics to disrupt the suit and then a concussive blast and this one's over.

If Stark is going mach 1, he'd either snap the webline or rip it out of Spidey's hand. Mach 1 is over 700 mph.

Actually it's about 750 mph. That's the speed of the tip of a whip when it's cracked. Spidey and his webs are strong enough to take it. Besides I never said he'd hold on to it.
You sure about that? It's easy to hold onto a whip, because even though it's fast moving, it's very light. Holding onto an Iron Man sized projectile moving at mach 1 is a whole different ballgame.
Maybe I'm not understanding what you're proposing. If you're saying Spidey hits Stark with a web line when Stark is moving at mach 1, and then whips him around into something, then Spidey has to hold on at least long enough to whip Stark around. If he hits him with a webline and lets go instantly, Stark will just be dragging a webline behind him (which isn't going to hurt him.)
In order to change the direction Iron Man is heading in, Spidey needs to exert a centripetal force of m * v^2 / r, where m is Iron Man's mass, v is his speed, and r is the radius of the turn (i.e., the length of the webline.) If he exerts any less force than that, then Stark will be dragging Spidey behind him (unless Spidey lets go or the line snaps.)
Lets cruch some numbers. (I'll mostly use metric units, since that's what I'm used to.)
I've got to figure Iron Man weighs at least 350 pounds in full armor (if not more). That's about 160 kilograms. (If he weighs more than that, that makes Spidey's task even harder.)
The speed of sound is about 340 meters per second.
The longer Spidey's line is, the less force he has to exert, so let's give him the benefit of the doubt and say he uses a nice long line. 50 ft, or about 15 meters. (If he's shooting webs at Stark from much more than 50 ft away, Tony would have ample time to dodge.)
So, that means that to whip Stark around when he's doing mach 1, Spidey has to exert a force of 160 * 340^2 / 15 = 1,233,067 Newtons.
That's equal to 1,359 tons. Way, way out of Spidey's range. (Unless I've screwed up the arithmetic somewhere.)
If by "crack the whip" you meant that Spidey would halt Stark dead in his tracks, then that's even harder than whipping him around into something. (It's harder to stop someone than it is to turn him.)
The Short Version (for those who hate math)
The amount of momentum someone has depends on their mass and their velocity. Mach 1 is an extremely fast velocity, and Iron Man is quite massive as well (since he's wearing metal armor). So that means his inertia is so much that even if Spidey snags him with a webline Tony would just keep moving in the same direction, dragging Spidey along behind him (unless Spidey lets go or the webline breaks.)
Of course, comic book writers tend to invent their own physics to suit the story, but I'm trying to be realistic here. (I know a person with spider-powers is inherently unrealistic, but still: if they establish that his powers only make him so strong, he shouldn't be performing feats of strength that exceed that by a couple orders of magnitude.)

Thats a good pairing, a tough competition, but i think that in the end, Thanos would emerge victorious... now if it were Dr. Doom against Thanos, ol' wrinkle chin would be gettin' his tush handed to him in front of his girl, but Dr. S will go down.

I wouldn't be so sure. Strange has taken on Adam Warlock w/ the Infinity Gauntlet, and still done all right. (This match is of course Thanos without the Gauntet). He's also beat the In-Betweener (a high-level cosmic) without any prep. Thanos beat the In-Betweener too, but only by basically tricking him into a place where he was powerless. It was basically acknowledged that in a straight up fight In-Betweener would beat Thanos.
Thanos has lots of impressive victories too, but almost always by using tons of advance planning and prep. In a no prep-time match like this one, I think Strange has more going for him.
I'll vote for Doctor Strange.

You've got to be kidding me. Strange is a million times more powerful than Doom. I'll grant you Doom's intellect and cunning makes him extremely formidable, but that's not nearly as much of a factor in a no prep-time match like this one.
And the thing is, even with prep Thanos would beat Doom. Thanos can do everything Doom does, only better. He's smarter, a better planner, and has more extensive resources. There's a reason that even with prep Doom still finds himself thwarted by the Fantastic Four -- whereas Thanos has successfully achieved omnipotence multiple times (and not crummy Beyonder or Cosmic Cube level omnipotence), not to mention killing half the Marvel Universe.

If you want to be technical, all Thanos has to do is rush Dr. Strange and hit him. He apparently possesses class 100 strength since he physically took on Thor and the Thing at the same time and held his own. I think in a no prep battle, Thanos takes it. With prep time however.......:venom:

I think Thanos would come out the winner in this match-up but it wouldn't be an easy fight.
Unless it was the wimpy Thanos that was beaten by Squirrel Girl then I would have to say Dr. Strange easily :)

8-3 to Thanos, could it be more humiliating.
Well not really he's a demi-god, who is about to crown himself to TOAA - read Marvel the end series.

Umm... No. Next to Strange, Doom is the most powerful magician on the planet. He's next in line for "Sorcerer Supreme" if something happened to Strange. Now add all his technolgy, intellect and the fact that he is evil and would not hold back and there is a very good chance he would defeat Strange. It would be quite a battle either way.
Thanos is a different story. Strange could certainly hold his own, but in the end I think I'd have to go with Thanos.

That may well be true but the gulf between Strange and Doom is IMMENSE

FYI: Thanos doesn't have the Infinity Gauntlet in this match-up. I figured you all knew that but I just wanted to make sure.
10 - 4 for Thanos so far...

Good thing you cleared that up Sparta*, if he did I was going to vote Strange :up: :D
This is a tough one. I think it could go either way, plus it depends which Thanos shows up. I would have to give it to Thanos the Majority of the time though.

Not till the new match is posted it isn't.
I think the MU could use a few more magicians while we're on the subject. Unless the character slips into limbo, Wiccan should be Strange's apprentice or something. I'd have suggested Nico from Runaways but she can't do anything without her staff.

I'm gonna go with Doctor strange on this one. He's precognitive which gives him prep time in any fight. Prep time for a sorcerer supreme is a huge factor. Also as stated above magic isnt to be underestimated.
Dr Strange is probably as powerful as Thanos it's just that his powers are different. Different and tricky.
I'm giving it to Strange cause he's the underdog but he DOES still have a good shot. And Wrinkle chin got beat by Squirrel girl so clearly he's a pushover these days.

Difficult decision! I have to go with Strange on this one. Thanos is the more powerful but then again so are most of Stranges opponents.Strange has an immense number of attacks and defenses with which to counter raw power.
As to Spidey and Iron Man, what I meant was to snag him with a line duing the fight and then crack the whip so that Tony was going Mach 1 when he impacts something hard.
