Yeah, not sure how the Riddler qualifies in this slot but regardless if it came down to a pick between them, the Legion would be crazy to not choose him.

12:3 - Captain Marvel / Shazam vs. Martian Manhunter
C.T. replied to UMPIRE's topic in CBUB Season Draft Matches
Similar strength, insane telepathic ability(given what he did to Despero who is not a slouch in that department either) and just having a power set that includes phasing and shapeshifting, thinking J’onn takes this one. -
12:3 - The Punisher vs. Domino (Marvel Comics)
C.T. replied to UMPIRE's topic in CBUB Season Draft Matches
Mh, skill-wise I think these two are in the same general range in marksmanship, hand to hand combat etc but Domino’s power gives the edge to her, I feel. -
I should get into the game at some point
-
Magpie as a skimpy villain? That kind of outfit would be a dime a dozen at a convention. Boring and not really likely to get that much support. But Condiment King? That outfit’s bold, he can be a real bro by saucing up plenty of meals for free and that should earn him points.

12:1 - Sarah Connor vs. Hadley's Hope (LV-426)
C.T. replied to UMPIRE's topic in CBUB Season Draft Matches
Except they did because that fails to disprove my point, since in that comic those colonists managed to hold out for several days which is the time period that comic covers, and Newt herself for weeks afterwards, and Sarah only has to go 24 hours or really 12 hours since they mostly come at night. -
12:1 - Alice (Resident Evil) vs. Raccoon City
C.T. replied to UMPIRE's topic in CBUB Season Draft Matches
But what if Mr X gave it to her? -
12:1 - Sarah Connor vs. Hadley's Hope (LV-426)
C.T. replied to UMPIRE's topic in CBUB Season Draft Matches
Yeah, come on, she only has to survive 24 hours, and the xenomorphs here in Newt's words come out at night for the most part so that means she'd only have to deal with them for half the time or even less. A child survived for weeks alone, and even the regular people living there were able to hold out for some time, given the barricades and that they had alive and dead facehuggers in jars, meaning they were studying them for a while. -
Hmm, yeah, wouldn't Black Bolt have to remove his breathing apparatus to use his most powerful weapon, thereby exposing himself to the highly toxic environment? It knocks people out in seconds and kills them in minutes...then again, Bolt's an Inhuman powerhouse who lives on the moon so likely not as dangerous for him. Really do think it comes down to who's faster on the draw, and if Zod uses his superior speed and plays it smart, I'd say he can take this but if Bolt has the chance to really cut loose then that's a problem. Toss-up.

12:1 - Gotham City Police Department vs. Bikers
C.T. replied to UMPIRE's topic in CBUB Season Draft Matches
Yeah sorry I'm just seeing a lot of supposition here for the bikers to have things go their way, like they're a gang that recruits exclusively from ex military types or that they're from certain media but there is no way to accurately confirm that. These bikers could totally be a bunch of overweight, out of shape people that like to ride just as much as they could be hardened ex-military. There's literally no way to be sure. But with the GCPD, we know who they are and what they deal with on a regular basis. I think they would be relieved to be handling regular bikers instead of their usual for a change. Gotta go with them. -
I see a lot of talk about different versions, pre-flashpoint, new 52, a few TV versions, movies/cartoons. If doing that, you might as well toss in Supergirl when she was a Red Lantern, in which case she would win pretty handily so...probably best to stick with one version. Still, I'm leaning towards her generally.
-
Yeah, as long as I’m not at the very bottom, I’m fine with however it goes. Should be fun.

Rumble 17314 Son Goku vs. Zombies (World War Z)
C.T. replied to Venom 2009's topic in CBUB Unrated Rumbles
Yeah, if he spontaneously becomes deaf and blind. -
11:6 - Batman (Richard Grayson) vs. Leonardo (TMNT)
C.T. replied to UMPIRE's topic in CBUB Season Draft Matches
Like Cass vs Raph, I just feel that Dick would have the upper hand over Leo here. -
Well, if he doesn't go around picking fights or anything and is just aboard and has no idea what this is, he probably could? Maybe get roped into unwanted janitorial duty or something/mistaken for a crew member? Or worst case, gets tossed into a brig or something but still survives the day? Don't think he'd be sentenced to like execution on the spot.
-
Both could probably do it but given Shiva's superb skill, status as a master assassin and just plain being able to blend in better(say like with stealing some uniform and posing as staff to get through the large amount of people aboard), gotta go with her getting it done better and faster.
-
Yeah, probably coulda put together a better team, but still, love them. Here's to being at the bottom. : )
-
Hmm, tough one. Rafiki's got the natural affinity with other animals, cuz duh, but I don't know how much knowledge of sports that crazy elder's got, so coaching an animal without that, I dunno. Ted's got that but lacks the same level of affinity.

11:3 - Rebecca Chambers vs. The Holographic Doctor
C.T. replied to UMPIRE's topic in CBUB Season Draft Matches
Oh, no, I agree, use him from his best in this regard. What I’m saying is from what I remember, he never fully lost that jerk nature, though he did become far more hospitable compared to what he used to be. Yet even so, at his best I don’t think his bedside manner would be as comforting as Rebecca’s, that’s what I mean. -
11:3 - Rebecca Chambers vs. The Holographic Doctor
C.T. replied to UMPIRE's topic in CBUB Season Draft Matches
Yeah, I just don’t agree. This is a weak argument. Her being endearing and kind does not detract from her intelligence, and I’d even argue this perception of intelligent people in pop culture not being attractive is looking backwards and isn’t true in the times. MCU Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, Peter Parker and his friends, Jane Foster and Shuri, Q in the Daniel Craig James Bond films, Sam Neill, Laura Dern, Jeff Goldblum and BD Wong in Jurassic Park, Rachel Weisz in the Mummy, James McAvoy in X-Men, Josh from Drake and Josh(eventually) and his girlfriend character in that, et cetera. A lot of these figures have dominated pop culture as of recent years and I think that overall it has moved away from that perception of attractive can’t be smart. Just bizarre thinking, I say. Regardless, even if the Doc warmed up to people eventually, Rebecca starts with that kind charm from the word go, on top of being an intelligent prodigy, so ultimately I’d say people would be more comfortable with her bedside manner. -

Broad generalizations that don’t matter since she’ll immediately disprove them. -
11:3 - Rebecca Chambers vs. The Holographic Doctor
C.T. replied to UMPIRE's topic in CBUB Season Draft Matches
Dunno, think you’re underestimating the combination of being adorable, kind and prodigiously intelligent here. Even if she doesn’t make a good first impression, which I personally doubt, if anybody could turn it around I’d say it’d be her over him. And that she would make people feel more comfortable and at ease. -
See, I don't know about this. Iroh's wise and serene and all that, but lowkey, if he was still around in the Korra era I could totally see him as a big fan/supporter of pro-bending teams, and willing to coach if asked. I don't think he would be above that.

Age is no guarantee of efficiency, and literally all licensed medical professionals have the education. There are many, many medical professionals that are young and just as good. Like 75% of doctors and nurses and other medical professionals I've been seen by are young. That doesn't mean they're bad. I just don't buy this argument. Being kind doesn't mean you let people walk all over you, or that you're not as focused. These generalities especially don't count here with Rebecca. Rebecca will do that, and be a lot more charming while doing so.
