23,000 vs 40,000
Damn, I forgot about the WZCW section! Well, maybe by this time next year we'll have caught them!
Fett is something of an amalgamation of many of those. He is essentially Batman in an Iron Man suit.
I don't think his suit is as technologically superior to that of Iron Man, especially because Iron Man's suit has a super computer on it, something Fett's does not. Fett might have offensive superiority, but in terms of defense and support, Iron Man's suit has him beat.
But let's save this for next Saturday!
And Bugs Bunny? Yeah, he shouldn't beat anyone who has even an ounce of smarts. He relies too much on his opponents being idiots. This is what happens to him.
Non-canon!
Bugs is a master of disguise, quick as a... well, a rabbit, and he does not lack confidence. Unfortunately, I know who his first round draw is, and it's not exactly the type of guy that's going to care if he's killing Bugs Bunny or a woman that looks eerily similar to Bugs Bunny. He also probably doesn't care if it's duck season or wabbit season.
And then there is Inspector Gadget... Despite his immense technological improvements, he is such an idiot that he relies solely on Penny and Brain to win "his" victories.
Shhh, that's going to be my main argument against him! Still, I think he could beat some of the other techies like Robotnik. Unfortunately for him, most of the characters in the Humans bracket are people that won't hesitate to kill (Punisher, Fett, Joker, Fury, Rambo, Jason, John Marston, Van Helsing), and I don't see Gadget doing very well under that kind of pressure.
Depending on his draw, Achilles should make some noise in the supers. Fucker's invulnerable unless you hit his ankle.
Agreed, but my analysis of him is that, while he's a very hard character to beat, he's also going to have a time winning. How's he supposed to beat The Hulk with a spear and a shield? I figure Hulk would eventually just start stomping on him and eventually break every bone in his body, including his ankle.
A very odd thing happened this morning. I went to Waffle House for breakfast and was told 'we are out of waffles'....
I asked in a low tone of voice 'WTF did you just say to me?' and sat there locked in a silent stare with the waitress for what seemed like minutes. I was trying to figure out if she was fucking with me or is just somehow being truthful. She finally spoke and said that the batter was stolen and they dont have anymore right now.
I dumped out my coffee on the table and walked out without saying another word. I think that might have been a little to drastic a reaction, but how am I supposed to believe that story? Someone just walks in and steals a bunch of waffle batter and nothing else?
Dick move on dumping out the coffee, but the "WTF did you just say to me?" part is awesome. I feel like only Waffle House could manage to get their waffle batter stolen.
I was surprised to see him in the Supers, I know he beats Hector pretty comprehensively in Troy, but in the original work, Hector was considered a dangerous enough opponent by Achilles Mother for Her to have to trick him into throwing his spear at Achilles because he thinks his brother has a replacement, but it turns out that his brother is only an illusion placed there by Achilles Mother forget her name. Anyway it leaves him with a far inferior short sword against a full length spear (Achilles has also thrown his spear, but actually does have somebody holding a replacement) thereby allowing Achilles an easier victory, although Hector still gives him quite a fight. It's made pretty clear throughout that in a fair environment, even with Achilles only having one weak spot, you'd be a fool to bet on one or the other, so he's not particularly Super, at least in my opinion.
All that said, there are people in the Human bracket that can take down some (or most) of the Supers, so I guess its irrelevant, and still, what do I know?
The difference between the two brackets has nothing to do with power level, it has to do with where their powers originated from. The reason we divided them this way is because it just seems smart. Maybe if we can do it next year we'll make it just one giant 64 seed tournament, but you'll see a major difference between the most powerful supers vs. the most powerful humans. Last year the winners were Link and Vader, and when Macios (rest his soul) made a thread pitting the two against each other, Vader won by a wide margin.
I'm most interested to see some of the arguments for characters like Master Hand, Achilles, Dovahkiin, Shepard, and The Doctor: new guys that are pretty much the baddest dudes in the world in their respective universes.
