The rules:
This is one of four threads, each containing two match ups.
The threads will be in use for 6 days.
Days 1-4 (Thursday-Sunday) are strictly setup time for owners to plead their cases, tell us their team’s strategies, breakdown the match ups, and do whatever else they can/want to do to try and convince you that their team would pull out a victory. Please, let the owners do this on their own with no help from you, the fan.

When Day 5 (Monday) rolls around, I’ll post and tell everyone that voting may begin. Only after doing so will voting start. Any votes cast before I open voting will not count.
To vote, look over the matchups and read the owners strategies and take them into consideration. Afterwards, use your best judgment to decide who you think has the best chance to win the match up and post up the teams you think will prevail.
(Note: The length of a writeup is up to the owner. Do not punish owners just for having a shorter writeup.)

To vote, give each writeup a score out of 10, with the team you feel winning the match earning the higher score. No tie votes are allowed, one team must get a higher score, even if only by a single vote.

Remember, to vote for each match up or your vote will not count!

The teams with the highest vote total at the end of the 6th day (Tuesday) will get a W while the other will get an L.

The battleground for this week is: DC Universe Time's Square during New Year's Eve celebration

All right, since I have no opponent I'm going to make this quick.

They'd have no knowledge of Brainiac 417, Boy Blue, or the Ghost, and it's debatable how much they'd know about Thanos and/or Darkseid.

My team would have access to not only Thanos' vaunted resources, but the resources of Apokolips and access to tech from the 853rd century as well.

Neither Dr. Light or Magneto (even being pure energy) would be able to muster enough to take down both Darkseid or Thanos. The Omega Effect would be able to wipe Mags out of existance, and Thanos would mop the floor with Light (even if it is the current version who is more deranged and deadlier than he once was).

Fitzroy is still just a regular human inside a powered suit. The M'Onelves would ripe right through the armor, or Ghost could simply phase his hand through it and partially solidify it in his heart or brain. Or make him intangible and phase him into a wall like he did to Spymaster.

Deathstroke is a skilled fighter, but he has no idea who Boy Blue is or what he's capable of. His invisibility, polymorphing, and teleportation would definitely help him in the fight. And Slade would know nothing of the Vorpal Blade, which would slice right through any defense Slade could bring up to block it.

Animal Man could prove a handful if he uses his powers intelligently, but he'd be no match at all for Darkseid or Thanos. Once either of them is finished with their original opponent, they'd wipe out all other resistance. One blast from either of them and Gar is gone.

Really, I don't see how my team could lose this one.
 
Voting may now begin....

If I were still in this... I could totally take out JB's team... but I'm not in it, so I won't debate :)
 
I'm conceding the match to Harlekin. In all honesty I don't see how my team could defeat his.
Maybe Praetor Lemnos could take out Vision, and maybe Will O' The Wisp could tamper with Indigo's circuits, but I think Mr Fantastic could probably invent something to counteract Wisp's powers.
I also believe Fate would have some sort of magical shield against Xavier's telepathy, and as far as brute strength goes Thor must be stronger then Juggernaut. And i don't see what Atom's powers can do against magic.

Wow. Feels like I did Harlekin's work for him. :)

Funky Fresh - 3
All New Different Exiles - 1
 
Wow, that's really kind LV. In honour of that, I'll concede this match to LadyVader. ;) Preator Lemnos could take out one of the team's biggest assets in Mr. Fantastic. Depending on the uber division, Captain Atom could potentially beat Thor (considering his fights against Majestic), but Xavier Juggy would certainly fall to Fate. Nemesis and Wisp can also get in their lucky shots.

I hope this at least made people think about their votes, since I wouldn't this match to go without some form of rebuttal.
