Dream Team League Transactions

I'm no expert on Malice -- I just picked her up because I wanted an evil Invisible Woman. But she's pretty proficient with her powers, I think. According to her Wikipedia profile, she "effortlessly defeated She-Hulk and Human Torch" (She-Hulk was occupying the Thing's spot on the team at the time). I know she could use her forcefields to make "force spikes", blow things apart, etc. in addition to using them defensively. (see here)

I haven't been able to find any great Ghost scans, but here's a good profile and a pretty detailed history of the character.

One more question on your team: Do all of Multiplex's multiples have their own separate minds, or is it like one mind controlling all of them? E.g.: Can one see what the others see? Do they automatically coordinate their actions, or do they have to discuss things?

[Khellendros]

So, uhh, since Gog got a belated change to his lineup, do I get one too?

Am I right in assuming that this transaction doesn't happen until after this week's match? Nameless Wonders have their lineup as including Fernus.

[XFanTim]

I think that's how we usually do it. Trades that occur after the matches are posted don't take effect until after the match.

Thanks.

One mind controls them from what I've been able to tell. On the other hand, they're also capable of acting independently (Amanda Waller had them working as couriers and the like). They do seem to coordinate automatically though, so a dupe could be given a task, but be recalled when necessary.

Sounds like a hive mind.

[Harlekin]

Yeah, that's the impression I got. They were able to finish off each other's sentences, but were also obviously capable of acting independent of each other. I have to admit to only reading bits and pieces of him.

Also, drop Baron Zemo (MR)
Pick-up Kang (MR)

[Aristotle]

As near as I can tell, Multiplex is something like a hive mind.

[wiegeabo]

Kang the Conquerer? Shouldn't he at least be a middleweight like Dr. Doom?

[Aristotle]

No, it's Kang from an alternate universe, Kang the Dude From the Apartment Down the Hall on the Right Who Always Has Sex With Weird Hippie Chicks and Smells Like Patchouli. Don't know what Harl wants with him, really.

[XFanTim]

Kang was uber in previous seasons . . . but we had Doom as an uber too for a while, so maybe we've revised both rankings downwards. Or it might depend on which of his robots and such we let him use (like how Iron Man's ranking depends on which armors he's using).

So he's uber?

[XFanTim]

Sounds tuber to me.

[wiegeabo]

Me too. I just didn't want to start an argument.

[Harlekin]

Yeah, and I also noticed that y'know, I already did away with Zemo, so we can ignore my previous post.

[Harlekin]

Okay, considering Brainiac something and Doc Doom are DM's, this should be okay:
Drop Nova (MU)
Pick-up Kang (MM)

Team Alpha Wolf Squadron
Quasar (MU)
Thor (MU)
Fernus (DU)
Dark Flash (DU)
Kang (MM)
Aquaman (DM)
Steel (DM)
Black Panther (MR)
Animal Man (DR)
Karate Kid (Pre-Crisis/Countdown) (DR)
Mr. Terrific II (DR)
Multiplex (DR)

In the past people have had Kang use various robots, some of which (I think) were uber level. Having him as a medium is probably fine so long as you don't use any uber level robots.

I actually kind of question why we let Kang summon robots at all (or likewise why we let Brainiac-417 use Mon'Elves). Shouldn't those count as separate characters? Or am I allowed to have Darkchylde summon a horde of demons to the battle?

[Harlekin]

I agree that we shouldn't really let characters summon anything, and yeah, robots like the Growing Man are uber, but I wouldn't use him.

[XFanTim]

OK, I've gone ahead and made the change in your roster.

So long as they do it in the comics, and we treat them like dupes (as in, too many of ANYTHING would push a character into the next power bracket), I don't see a problem.

That's what you get for being a ****-blocking bastard.


I did have a few questions about your team:

-What point in time is Winter taken from? Other than surviving in the sun, what are some other notable absorption feats does he have? How fast/strong does he usually get?

-Any specific issues I should read to get a sense of S1M's character? Was he still vulerable to Kryptonite?
