VS Battles?

Post by MadCow2357 »

Just gauging interest for a series of VS Battles on the forum. The host of each "game" would determine the contestants, and a period of x days would be given for people to discuss. Not really sure how a game would end, but I'm thinking about a poll. I'm open to any suggestions! Below are ideas I already have:

Individual Contestants:
1. Batman vs Black Panther vs Iron Man
2. Lord Voldemort vs Darth Sidious
3. Gandalf vs Dumbledore

World Wars:
1. Red Queen Series vs Steelheart Trilogy vs Lorien Legacies
2. Pokemon vs Yugioh vs Bakugan
3. Marvel vs DC

Another thing: Where would these "games" be put? Would it be a posting game, a poll, or part of the general chat?

I would like to note that in any such hypothetical matchup, you would want to clearly and comprehensively define the rules of engagement (location or other context, interaction between technologies/magic systems if they are from different continuities, and what constitutes a victory or defeat).

Ahahaha!!!
Anyways, yes I agree we would need to set up certain parameters for the VS battles. I have a few ideas, but I'll need all the help and suggestions possible to make this work. First battle will be Batman vs Black Panther vs Iron Man. Let's start brainstorming (not actual battle yet, I'll post a new topic for the battle).

But we all know, this is the correct one:
Individual Contestants:
1. Batman vs Black Panther vs Iron Man
2. Lord Voldemort vs Darth Sidious
3. Gandalf vs Dumbledore

World Wars:
1. Red Queen Series vs Steelheart Trilogy vs Lorien Legacies vs The Whole Entire Cosmere
2. Pokemon vs Yugioh vs Bakugan
3. Marvel vs DC

Make it a hurt and heal, except more balanced : ex 1 post/ day so the Hawaiins don't take over.

That hurt. Also, it looks like you misclicked because you bolded Pokemon instead of Yugioh, which is clearly more superior (Pokemon card game succs compared to Yugioh).

Ha! Aren't you funny. We all know Yugioh is inferior to Pokemon, and If you think otherwise, you can talk to my Dragonite.
I CAN DAB AT COMPETITIONS AGAIN :x :x :x
