Event Clash of Titans Season 2 Sign Up

Sign Up Post

Continuing in the tradition of having fun in tournaments, The Clash of Titans is a fast-paced, debate-oriented tournament where competitors will face off within a new gimmick each season. Welcome to the Second Season of the Clash of Titans.

To 'sign up', one need merely comment below with a Roster of characters that fit the guidelines.

Sign ups will last through Wednesday May 22, at which time a Tribunal shall be held for as long as it needs to be.


Rules

Battle Rules

Speed is to be equalized to Mach 200. Combat and movement speed, with their reactions scaled down/up relatively. Speed boosts via abilities, however, are indeed allowed to make one surpass this base speed threshold.

Battleground: Its Toriko Earth, Toriko earth is 659 times the size of the regular earth. (or 220,000 KM) Combatants start 2 relative seconds away from each other, in the Human World, and in a line spaced 2 meters apart from their allies. Every combatant starts each round being 'teleported' into the arena, knowing full well whomever they face down needs to die or be incapacitated in order for they themselves to advance and win and will do so, and with knowledge of their allies' weapons and abilities. All combatants begin without any weapons drawn or abilities active, hands idle at their sides, weapons holstered, and the moment they teleport in they can begin combat. All combatants are in-character for the tourney itself. No character can go into space.


Submission Rules

Tier: Must be able to win an unlikely victory, draw/near draw, or likely victory against New 52 Superman, in the conditions outlined above. All entrants will be bloodlusted against Superman, meaning they will act fully rationally and put down their opponent in the quickest, most efficient manner possible regardless of morality, utilizing any and all possible techniques/tactics/attacks if necessary.

There are 7 categories of winning or losing a fight: Unwinnable, Specific condition victory, unlikely victory, draw/near draw, likely victory, freak accident loss, absolute certain victory. For this tournament. When you sign up, you must stipulate which of these win conditions your character can pull off and why. A brief blurb for each character is sufficient.

Each team must submit 5 characters whom all fit within the tier, 4 for their main roster, and 1 back-up should a character be veto’d mid tourney.

Directly altering characters to fit tier must be kept to a minimum. Directly altering stats is a no go. On the other hand, using a character from an earlier story arc where they're weaker or adding / removing equipment they are shown to use at least twice are good. Alternatively, if someone has equipment that is otherwise good, though has one or two weapons that push them out of tier, removing said gear is fine.

All submitted characters must have a Respect Thread. This is not up for debate; they must have a faithful RT that does not misinterpret the character willfully or leave out information on said character.

After Sign-Ups will be Tribunal, where characters are pre-screened and removed and replaced if need be.


Debate Rules

Rounds will last 5 days, hopefully from Tuesday Morning until Sunday night of each week of the tourney; there is a 48 hour time limit both on starting AND on responses, each user MUST get in two responses or else be disqualified. If one user waits until the very last minute to force this rule to DQ their opponent without any forewarning to their opponents or the tournament supervisors, they will be removed from this tournament.

Rounds will either be a full 4v4 Team Match, or 2v2 matches. 2v2 matches are determined by randomization. Match format will switch every round.

Superman Buffs

Superman's Magical durability is equal to his physical durability, this is to say that a magical attack that can crater a street would not do more damage to Superman than a simple punch that can do the exact same damage. "Soul Hax" isnt magic. Telepathy also isnt magic. Thank you.

By request Superman will now have his Heat Vision, Superman's heat vision is speed equalized as well. These are the feats we will be using:

Fires at 5000 degrees

Vaporizes metal fragments inside Lois' body then seals and cauterizes the wound


Good luck and have fun

Me and /u/feminist-horsebane are teaming

Team BBQ Milk

Character RT Stipulations User
Super Perfect Cell (Dragon Ball) Respect Thread No solar system statement. No Cell Jrs. No absorption. Opponents know about his cell cluster. feminist
Genis-Vell (Marvel 616) Respect Thread Cannot use spatial manipulation directly on opponents, but can do it for projectiles. Cannot fry people's brains with cosmic awareness. No universal outliers. Is Photon. iridescence
Ultron (Marvel 616) Respect Thread Ultron is a composite of all forms in the RT barring: 14, Ultron Forever, Ultron War. No telepathy or shrinking. Cannot infect the opponent's team with spores. Can only heal circuit damage. Also is wearing a Santa hat and goes "Ho Ho Ho" whenever he kills someone. feminist
Doctor Solar (Capital/First/Dark Horse Comics) Respect Thread No matter transformation. No absolute zero feat. iridescence
[Backup] Kid Buu (Dragon Ball) Respect Thread No absorption, no regeneration from smoke feat, doesn't scale from Cell's solar system busting team

Cell: Has roughly similar physicals to Supes, but has a bit more variety. This is a Likely victory.

Genis: His energy projection can hurt Supes, and he has a lot of variety + precog. However his actual physicals aren't very good and he can't endure an extended close fight with Supes. This is an Unlikely victory.

Ultron: Has comparable strength to Supes and can hurt him with beams. His durability is higher but Supes should be capable of exposing the weak points in his design or damaging his circuitry after an extended fight due to higher skill. This is a Likely victory.

Doctor Solar: Has slightly less strength and durability than Supes, but makes up for it and more with his variety and defensive hax. This is a Likely victory.

Kid Buu: Has comparable strength to Supes, and has a powerful healing factor to endure an extended fight. This is a Likely victory.


  • For all DBZ characters assume Planet Vegeta is Earth sized.

  • For Doctor Solar, assume his sun splash feat is Earth sized.

  • For Genis-Vell's 'shredding worlds' feat assume they're talking about Earth sized worlds.

Also use this thread for more feats on Cell/Buu (Buu is in comments)
