Superhero Draft

am I in the game?
If so, I'll go with omegadrone.




aka cyborg

 

Damn Jaisee, you sure did, I missed that, didnt' think anyone else would pull that out.

I replace my disallowed second round pick with Marc Spector:

 

I'm doing the same as you... picking favorites. I was going to hold off until the third round, but something told me someone else around here would have good taste.

 

I think I should win the whole thing because ass, boobs, and beauty render your male superheros incapacitated mush so my girls just pluck you off one by one by one. There's no need to go any further. I'm the winner!!! :smt045

 

Ha ha good try Britt

 

ah but my second pick is not human so is unaffected by the allure of woman!
I'll just blast you after you finished with all the other guys!

 

And what if some of us have female picks coming up? Your girls roll both ways? (Sniff,Sniff) I smell catfight coming.

 

Since this is all in fun, here is a friendly strategy suggestion for you Britty, in order for you to be able to get away with your "Titty and Ass" ploy. Especially if you are going for an all female squad. Make Wonder Woman your next pick. She's got strength and speed and leadership qualities being that she is an Amazon princess. A natural as team captain for your girls plus she's all about sisterhood and female empowerment, some that all your female choices would more than likely get behind. Plus any female characters that any of use guy would pick would see an all girls squad and think "Hey !!! They got it right, so why are we running around with these horny losers?" and be less likely to go against your girls. Now you have an opening to employ the Titty/Ass Maneuver and try for the win. You don't have to use this, just something to think about.

 

I'm not in on this but Squirrel Girl would own everyone.

Victories

***********0645ad]Doctor Doom[/color]'s notorious defeat by an army of squirrels. Art by ***********0645ad]Steve Ditko[/color].


Following her defeat of Dr. Doom, an ongoing joke depicts Squirrel Girl repeatedly attaining victory over various villains, some of whom are considerably more powerful than she is. Typically, these victories occur off-panel, though some, like her battle with ***********0645ad]Deadpool[/color], are fully shown. Deadpool, having been bested by her twice, considers Squirrel Girl to be one of the major powers of the Marvel Universe, comparing her to ***********0645ad]Iron Man[/color] and ***********0645ad]Thor[/color].***********0645ad][8][/color]
Squirrel Girl's victories often result from her opponent's overconfidence (Doom, MODOK), weakness from an earlier fight (Deadpool), or creative use of her powers (Doom, Bi-Beast). For the most part, she defeats her opponents through the use of her wits. Her defeat of Bi-Beast was the result of "one of those super-hero team-ups" with ***********0645ad]The Thing[/color]. While visiting squirrel friends in ***********0645ad]Central Park[/color], Squirrel Girl came across Thing fighting with Bi-Beast. She told the squirrels to retrieve the smelliest garbage they could find and place it around the combatants, resulting in everyone having to hold their noses. Bi-Beast had to use both hands to hold his noses, leaving himself defenseless, allowing Thing to knock him out.
Squirrel Girl's defeat of Thanos is an ambiguous one. Although ***********0645ad]Uatu[/color] was present at the battle and claimed that the Thanos that Squirrel Girl defeated was indeed genuine and not a clone or copy,***********0645ad][3][/color] Thanos has since revealed that he has perfected a means of creating clones of himself that could fool even "the most cosmic of beings." Adding to the ambiguity is the fact the reveal comes from the mind of a clone whose memory had been altered.***********0645ad][9][/color]



Thus far, Squirrel Girl has beaten:

• ***********0645ad]Doctor Doom[/color]***********0645ad][10][/color]
• ***********0645ad]Mandarin[/color]***********0645ad][3][/color]
• ***********0645ad]Giganto[/color]***********0645ad][3][/color]
• ***********0645ad]MODOK[/color]***********0645ad][3][/color]
• ***********0645ad]Thanos[/color]***********0645ad][3][/color]
• ***********0645ad]Terrax[/color]***********0645ad][3][/color]
• Bug-Eyed Voice***********0645ad][1][/color]
• ***********0645ad]Bi-Beast[/color]***********0645ad][4][/color]
• ***********0645ad]Deadpool[/color]***********0645ad][5][/color]
• ***********0645ad]Pluto[/color]***********0645ad][6][/color]
• ***********0645ad]Fin Fang Foom[/color]***********0645ad][7][/color]
• ***********0645ad]Baron Mordo[/color]***********0645ad][7][/color]
• ***********0645ad]Korvac[/color]***********0645ad][7][/color]
• ***********0645ad]Ego the Living Planet[/color]***********0645ad][7][/color]

 

LoL :smt102

Well, see, my Black Orchid woman is a master of disguise capable of altering her appearance and voice so I bet she could fool your guy into thinking she's the female version of your non-human second pick. So there!

I think my girls will do whatever is necessary to win. :wink:

I was thinking of making her my first pick, but I thought everyone might see it coming because she's such a popular superheroine, and I wanted to be different. But I will pick her now.

My 3rd pick: Wonder Woman

 

My third pick will be Jean Grey

Though I can't stand DC comics, I'm going to have to go with the worlds greatest detective in the 3rd round. He's already beat Superman, Captain America, Venom.... hell, he's beat the entire JLA.

 

Does the draft order really count? You are gettting all of these great picks early in the rounds although you are the ninth selector.

I'm not mad at ya tho. I think it is free picking as the rounds open. Maybe we already said that. No impact on me, here's my 3rd round choice:

 

Well, we started off snake style but that didn't work out so well so it just went to first come / first serve for each round. Even that's failing, Karma and BA did not make 2nd rd. picks.

 

Wouldn't Jean Grey fall into the "ambiguous hero" category described in the rules? She's kind of crazy and does have that whole Dark Phoenix thing going on.

 

I didn't consider that. Good catch Shaft. I change my pick to Storm.

 

I'd actually considered her too. Every good team should have a telepath IMO.

 

I liked her more for the strong telekinitecs but telepathy is a must as well.
