Last match of round 1!

I was playing Heroclix the other day, and building my team, I had 103 points left. I looked at my selection and realized that U HT Batman and R IC Hulk both cost the same. This got me thinking. Just because they are Heroclix equals doesn’t translate back translate back to comics. I think most of us would agree that Hulk could beat Batman in a fight.

That is the idea for this tournament. Every entry will be close to the same amount of points Heroclix wise, but this will be their comic forms fighting!

Rules:
This will be a standard single elimination tournament with 32 combatants. There will be 2 to a fight. They get no knowledge of each other (unless they have fought in the past). The only thing they get is the Heroclix figure of there enemies, and a PAC so they know what the opponent looks like and a bit about what they can do (this can be misleading however, like if they face Electro and think he will try to poison them). They will have 5 minutes to prepare. This is a fight to the death or KO, whichever happens first, and they must fight (no waiting for the opponent to die of starvation). They have with them what they normally carry and what there fig has if it is different. (Like how Bullseye doesn’t carry a gun, but he has one on the fig). If the fig that is being used is the rookie, you do NOT have to treat the fighter like that. (unless the characters powers change dramatically ie: Rouge)

When you vote, please try to justify your answer. You don’t have to write an essay, just a short explanation will do.

Terrain:
Badlands by hail_eris
A small frontier town is the central feature of this broken terrain, but one's senses are overloaded by a constant torrent of sound. Canyons cut through the land to the east, their walls shaking as work crews blast a railroad tunnel through one of the larger hills. To the north, the air is filled with the ringing of metal on rock as men labor in an open pit copper mine. (Inspired by Deadwood)

TOMOE
Ana Ishikawa's best friend, the lethally beautiful Tomoe, leads the Nara religious order. Tomoe's mantra is that of the butterfly, and she wields her blade war-fans in a delicate-but-deadly sweep of a song. Bound by honor, a broken-hearted Tomoe must deliver the head of Shi to the ruthless Yakuza crime lord, Masahiro Arashi.

DEATHSTROKE
The army experimented on Slade Wilson, increasing his strength, intelligence and agility tenfold. He became the international mercenary and assassin known as Deathstroke the Terminator. He lost an eye when his ex-wife shot it out. Regardless, he is a master of martial arts and weapons of all kinds. When his hit-man son Grant died, Slade took up the contract to kill the Teen Titans. He almost succeeded when he teamed up with the traitor Terra. They were stopped when Slade's younger son, Jericho joined the team. Since then, Deathstroke has alternately been the occasional ally and sworn enemy of the Titans, particularly Nightwing.

Wow. Okay. So it's Deathstroke against that Sailor Scout clone with the fans? Is there any way that this *isn't* an absolute blowout? For the sake of argument, we'll say that Slade finds some cover, lures Tomoe into a box canyon, sets off the dynamite he swiped from the tunnel excavation crew, and buries her under a couple hundred tons of rock. Because if you're going to do a job, make it flashy. Deathstroke to advance.

Tomoe's good and does have a thing for decapitations - which is a pretty handy attack against a super-regenerator like Slade - but let's be honest, she's probably going to have her "sweetly deft butterfly movements" fried by a blast from the powerstaff. Here's hoping Deathstroke gets a shot at Logan next round.

Vote: The Terminator

Well, maybe if they met in a civilian situation, and Tomoe just suddenly decapitated him, she could win. But not here. Vote: Wilson the Terminator
