Battle Clash of Titans Season 5, Sign Ups.

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 Fifth 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 , Sunday May 14th at which time the Free For All will begin.

Rules

Battle Rules

Speed is to be equalized to Mach 12. 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:

  • Free For all takes place on Sakaar

  • Round 1 takes place in the roman colosseum.

  • Round 2 takes place in Winnipeg Canada ( The Forks)

  • Round 3 takes place on Himalaya's around Everest

Assume every arena is indestructible, and covered in an appropriately sized dome of WhoWouldWinium.

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. Any Questions refer to GDT rules, any other questions refer to xWolfPaladinx.

Submission Rules

Tier: Must be able to win an unlikely victory, draw/near draw, or likely victory against Thor Slowdenson, in the conditions outlined above. All entrants will be bloodlusted against Thor, 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 3 characters whom all fit within the tier, 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 the Free For All. Be in tier, or lose.

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 3v3 Team Match, or 1v1 matches. 1v1 matches are determined by randomization. Match format will switch every round.

Gimmick

Its Pools, the "first round" of this tournament will be a free for all where each contestant will submit a 20K response that outlines why there 3 person team would win against every other team in the tournament. From there the judges will rank each response and determine who advances to the Winners bracket and who does not. From there its just a normal tourney.

Good Luck, Have Fun

β€œHe says gods like to see an atheist around. Gives them something to aim at.”

Submission Source / RT Stipulations / Etcetera Victory
Goku Dragonball Super: Rise of The Super Alicorn God Pre-ponification feats. β€’ No scaling to other characters pre-ponification. β€’ Post-Zenkai Super Saiyan God at 100% power, in Alicorn form, without Rainbow amp. β€’ Has the Nimbus. β€’ Stip this feat and his battle with Beerus shaking things. β€’ Is motivated as he is against Beerus. β€’ Is divorced. Likely
The Destroyer Marvel, Earth‑616 Scaling (Thor, Hulk, etc.). β€’ Fuelled by Thor's spirit, Destroyer and animator working as one. β€’ Has both arms, Mjolnir and Thor's Battle Armor. β€’ Can't transmute or disintegrate combatants. β€’ Claims of planet-ending power are hyperbole and this is an outlier. Likely
SuperDoom DC, The New 52 Scaling (Doomsday, Rao, etc.). β€’ Doomsday RT, additional feat. β€’ No life-energy-drain. β€’ Is at the height of his Doomsday-ness, and is wearing his costume. Draw
Donald Blake Marvel, Earth‑616 Scaling (Thor, Hulk, etc.). β€’ Has Mjolnir and will have words with thee. β€’ This is an outlier. Draw

 

Justifications

  • Goku
    Has numerous very clear-cut mountain-tier feats, and some utility stuff that helps him to lands hits consistently.

  • The Destroyer
    Has numerous prolonged fights with Thor in which it demonstrates that it is superior in most if not all aspects and can readily use those to win after a slightly extended fight.

  • SuperDoom
    Can bust mountains and take mountain-busting attacks.

  • Donald Blake
    Is Thor's alter ego who went nuts.
