Considering though the Martians once used a weird thing to absorb a nuclear blast and turns out to be helium to them, i think the same logic will apply.

Maybe you should have made this argument in the actual thread
In hindsight, I should have.
5 hours ago, DSkillz said:Eh, that kinda sounds like the Ten Rings would make Shang-Chi too powerful for the slot anyway. As mentioned, though, the match was still only decided by one vote.
I see you haven't been around a lot since the Draft started, man. Maybe you'd serve your team better by debating for your picks more in their matches.
I've been a bit preoccupied more than I thought really. For reasons. I just wasn't sure if it's worth it anymore but at the same time, I don't want to give it up.
I have been writing the next match however.

10 Rings powers are really undefined in the movie?
Eighter has a higher shown strength? Eighter has some real durability? And it was only a 6:5 vote.
The ten rings were powerful to kill an eldritch abomination. And Shang Chi killed the Dweller in Darkness sending the rings inside doing this.
Now explain how would Android 8 beat THAT.

er... weren't you in the championship match last season?
Then how did Android 8 beat Shang Chi?

People just have a bias against who I pick evidently.
-
Given he used the ten rings to kill a Lovecraftian esque monster, he can win this.
-
I don't know, she's taken on a lot of tough dudes before and survived.
-
I'm curious who gave Karai a pity vote though.

Pretty good set-up, Movie-Brat. Having Natasha make an escape was about the only route to go for the recap because that's about the only way she'd "win" a confrontation with these Cybermen.
As for the match, I'm not familiar with Makkari, but since she's an Eternal, I figure there's not much, if anything, that Karai and Foot could do against her. Also, you might as well have used the Foot's profile for this match.
I tried searching but nothing came up unless I typed something wrong.

The scenario of it being a fleet battle more benefits the Martians I think. I can’t really recall the Xiliens using their ships for combat of any capacity, but I do remember the Mars Attacks Martians having pretty powerful laser beams on their ships and shielding powerful enough to tank a nuclear bomb.
And a Martian leader sucking the blast like helium.
-
Yeah, I'm confused. Isn't this technically cheating to give the Riddlera win since he was a member in the Superfriends cartoons?

Nice to see another Chloe match. 😉
How do you like her chances then?

Unless something has changed Makkari is like the fastest Marvel character (The Runner may have something to say about that). I don't see Karai and the Foot laying a hand on her (didn't know they race and gender swapped this character but why should I be surprised).
Nothing changed in the comics. Still the fatest. And I think the movie made sure her being the fastest speedster in the Marvel universe stick there too.

9:00 P.M. - May 2021, New York City
Black Widow made her first strike. First, she struck one of the batons onto one of the Cybermen via their chest unit. Said Cyberman screamed in agony before sparks exploded and plopped on the ground.
She then attempted to grab the weapon but retracted as it was shot away quickly by a barrage of lasers.
In turn, Natasha took out the EMP bullet loaded pistols and fired back at the Cybermen. Taking down a few more in the process, the EMP bullets taking full effect. Besides a few shots through the chest, she even shot a few Cybermen in the head.
Even despite the Cybermen shooting at her, Black Widow managed to keep and dodge ever laser bullet when trying to fire back at the Cybermen. Even ducking behind a desk to wait for the right moment to fight back every few seconds. And for every second, she managed to take out one or two Cybermen at a time.
That was, until Natasha saw she had one more EMP bullet each in both pistols.
"Surrender yourself." Said the Cyber-Leader.
"You know I can't do that!" She replied back.
"We detect only one bullet left each."
Black Widow stood up to see seven Cybermen left.
"Surrender to us." The Cyber-Leader said. "For you will be free of all emotions."
"Not exactly the best healthcare plan." Snarked Natasha.
She aimed one of the pistols at the Cybermen. She was waiting for the moment to fire while the Cybermen themselves were ready to fire back at her. It turned out to be a standoff ultimately.
"Kill her!" The Cyber-Leader ordered after a moment of silence.
In turn, Black Widow shot one more EMP bullet into a random Cyberman. In turn, the rest of the Cybermen including their leader fire at her. However, Natasha managed to break through the window-doing a total freefall.
But with the help of one of her wrist gauntlets, she managed to fire a grappling hook projectile on a flagpole from a nearby building and managed to wrap the wire around tightly. She then managed land on the ground with ease-complete with her usual pose.
"A distraction." Noted the Cyber-Leader as he looked out the broken window-witnessing Black Widow's escape. "The most logical course of action she would take."
He then turned to the remaining Cybermen and said, "Continue the Cyber conversions but initiate the final phase of our invasion."
"Yes leader." The Cybermen said in unison before leaving the building.
---------
Back in the Quinjet, the Turtles looked at the ground in astonishment and a bit of fear as they saw various heroes from Ms Marvel, Ironheart and Spider-Man (Miles Morales) of the Champions, Crystal, Karnak and Gorgon of the Inhumans, The Thing and the Invisible Woman to the Avengers as Captain America, She-Hulk and Spectrum, the X-Men such as Rogue, Storm and Cyclops and the Young Avengers and Runaways as America Chavez, Wiccan, Hulkling, Nico Minoru, Molly Hayes, Karolina Deane and Gert Yorkes with Old Lace; even members of the Agents of Atlas like Aero, Wave, Dan Bi, Silk and Swordmaster; the available heroes who caught wind of the Cybermen invasion. All of them fighting back despite the increasing odds.
The Quinjet landed on a street a few feet away from the battle.
"What's the plan?" Leonardo asked Simmons as he and the others leapt off the Quinjet.
"We're working on it!" Simmons answered before adding, "But Fitz and I theorized the Cybermen could have been gathering victims from a variety of sources for their conversion based on what the Doctor had informed us based on her experience."
"It does sort of explain how they were able to grow an army in a short amount of time." Jack Harkness concurred.
"We'll do whatever we can to give you time to think of a plan!" Leonardo said to Simmons and Jack Harkness.
"How the shell are we going to do that?" Raphael asked with doubt in his voice.
"I know it's not much." Simmons interjected as Jack Harkness opened the suitcase.
She took the EMP katanas and brought them to the Ninja Turtle leader.
"We still need to invent more weapons to fight." Simmons said.
"But I noticed your choice of weaponry and..." She added before Leonardo graciously took the EMP katanas.
"I'd be honored." He responded with a soft smile.
Suddenly, the six see the arrival of three more additional heroes; Captain America (Sam Wilson), Scarlet Witch and Thena.
"We came as soon as we heard." Sam said as he descended down.
"The battle's just started and we need all the help we can get!" Simmons responded.
"Let's do this!" Leonardo shouted as he and the others charged into battle.
"Wait!" Simmons grabbed Jack Harkness by his arm just as he was joining the others to fight the others. "Where's Makkari?"
"Who?" He asked in confusion.
"We need her to find Shang Chi and I have something for her that can potentially stop the Cybermen!" Simmons responded as she looked around for the Eternal, any sight of her.
------
A dark skinned woman in red and white (or gray depending how it looks at night) Makkari was running across the ocean to get to New York. She had received word that the Cybermen invasion was underway. She knew she had to help join other heroes into battle.
But as she reached the New York docks. By pure accident, she stumbled upon a peculiar sight. As she leapt onto the pier, she saw construction efforts and even Foot Ninja personal lifting a destroyed Triceratron ship from the ocean. She pegged that someone was trying to reconfigure and steal technology from alien lifeforms.
But her arrival proved awkward. Everyone took notice of the mysterious speedster who had stumbled upon their operations.
"A curious intruder, Mr. Touch." She turned to see two men. One of which looked like a dapper gentleman in white and the other, a large muscular man in dark clothing.
"She doesn't seem to be tough, Mr. Go." The muscular man slightly concurred.
As the two pounded their fists, energized, they charged at her but not before she sped away and grabbed nearby rope to tie the both of them before knocking them out with one hard punch each.
Makkari smirked at her accomplishment.
"Impressive."
Makkari turned around to see a young woman of Japanese descent in silver sharp armor, holding a helmet that completed the armored samurai look.
"Most impressive." Karai said curiously.
"I don't know what you're doing here. But if you are here to stop my operations, I will destroy you." She added.
Makkari could not hear her words but did manage to read her lips.
I am here to fight the Cybermen invading the Earth. Not you. Makkari replied in sign language.
"I'm afraid I cannot allow you to leave." Karai said as she placed on the helmet, one that once belonged to her father; Oruku Saki, the Shredder.
And in turn, an army of 30 Foot Ninjas and 5 Foot Tech Ninjas along with the Foot Elite Guard.
"Your powers are strong, but can you withstand me and the Foot Clan?"
In response, Makkari could only smile.
She then got into position as if she were running a marathon and then as she took the first step, she charged at her opponents with ramming speed.
--------
This is a filler fight before going into the main story.
And I also wanted to tie in with Eternals in that movie's honor. So I picked Makkari despite her being a very late addition to the story. And I wanted an Eternals fight for this site anyway.
And besides the MCU version, the comics recently had Makkari reborn as a deaf black woman, very much like her MCU counterpart because synergy. But to be fair, it's not without reason as Jason Aaron previously killed off the Eternals (long story) in the first arc of his Avengers run. And writer Kieron Gillen brought them back for his run of Eternals right now as I'm writing this (it's on issue 7).
But yes, Makkari is at full strength and speed as her comic book counterpart with elements of her film version as well.
And Karai is at full strength and combat. As well as her usage of the Shredder suit.
The goal being can Makkari defeat her and much of the Foot Clan even at top super speed. And of course, these are the 2003 cartoon versions.

Note: This is a tweaked version of a match I wrote. Further details explained below.
---------
Long ago in an unknown time, across millions of galaxies away from Earth. There was a war. A war seemingly a lot were unaware of, even when battles found their way to Earth.
The Last Great Time War.The Daleks had declared war on the Time Lords. Even after the Time Lords had fired the first shot. Sending the champion of peace, The Doctor, to prevent their creation on Skaro, years before their first encounter.The Doctor was even brought in to join the war with the Time Lords to fight the Daleks. And yet ultimately and unfortunately, while the Doctor was successful in ending the war and destroyed the Daleks, the renegade Time Lord destroyed the planet Gallifrey itself along with its inhabitants. All within the final days of the war with all forces exhausting their resources. Things had become desperate.And while thanks to the 10th and 11th incarnations of the Doctor, there were slight changes, the War incarnation had not remembered after regenerating. Leaving the 9th Doctor distraught and hardened after the events. But even unknown to other incarnations, artifacts of the Time War are still roaming throughout the universe. Even the Daleks.One group was even lost to time during one of their battles, landing in what ultimately became modern day France. The Dalek squad led by one of the many members of the Dalek Supreme Council resided underneath, plotting and waiting when to strike.Throughout their reactivation as soon as they woke up, they had discovered humans with extraordinary abilities. Some use technology, others used magic, even plenty born with powers. The Daleks saw them as an immediate threat but also to their advantage for they could control them, use them as slaves until they were no longer useful.The Time War had ended but to this group, it hasn't. Unaware of the outcome. They will exterminate all humans no matter what.--------The Daleks had observed through their all seeing monitors of their ship. They had witnessed Shadow Moth having akumutized Chloe yet again, somehow getting the Bee miraculous, once again becoming Miracle Queen.The two were now commencing an assault on France, attempting to draw out Miraculous Ladybug and Cat Noir.The Dalek Supreme, in gold and black armor, spoke, "THE AC-TIONS OF THE LIFE-FORMS ARE INTER-FERING WITH OUR PLANS!""WE MUST EX-TER-MI-NATE THEM!" One of the Daleks concurred."THE EARTH MUST FEEL VUN-ERA-BLE FIRST!" The Dalek Supreme continued. "THEY MUST BE CAUGHT OFF-GUARD!"The Dalek Supreme turned to his captured subjects beside them.Imprisoned in gravity holding cells, there were dozens of heroes. Many of which were deemed missing for weeks. Members of the Avengers, Champions, X-Men, the Fantastic Four, the Inhumans, Eternals, the Sailor Guardians, the Ninja Turtles, even a Power Ranger or two. All of them captured and even placed headbands to keep them in line under their control. Hovering above platforms. Some of which had metal collars around their necks should any of them resist the headband."No..." A teenage girl with short red hair named Jean Grey groaned. "Don't... do this!""PLACE THE COL-LAR ON THE MU-TANT!" Commanded the Dalek Supreme.Descending from the ceiling came long elongated robotic hands weilding a metal collar. It ended up being forcibly placed around her neck despite Jean's efforts to resist the mind control. With the collar device snapped on, the telepath ceased resisting.Ajak, the leader of the Eternals, stared in horror. She could not stand that a child was going to be borderline tortured and forced to do their bidding."No!" Kamala Khan aka Ms Marvel shouted in distress. "Leave her alone!""Please! Don't do this!" Ajak shouted. "She is only a child!""You bastards! Barbarians!" Screamed Echo, who had acquired the powers of the Phoenix. "This is inhumane!""SILENCE!" The Dalek Supreme screamed back at the captors."PLACE THE COL-LARS ON THE FOUR LIFE-FORMS AS WELL!" The Dalek Supreme then barked his next orders.To the horror of the women who protested, the collars descended down and despite all efforts to escape, it proved futile in the end as they were nothing they could do but have the collars be forced on their necks.All four young women (or immortal in the case of Ajak) gagged a bit, almost vomiting as a side effect due to the forceful nature, their heads dropped before lifting up in obedience to their new masters.Jean's gravity prison finally deactivated with her descending to the floor gracefully and then kneeling in front of the Dalek Supreme."WHOM DO YOU SERVE?" Asked the Dalek Supreme."I serve the Dalek race." Jean replied in a monotone voice."YOU WILL AT-TACK AND EX-TER-MI-NATE THESE LIFE-FORMS!" The Dalek Supreme pointed to the view screen featuring Miracle Queen and Shadow Moth."THEY ARE THE EN-E-MIES OF THE DA-LEKS!" Said the Dalek Supreme. "ALL EN-E-MIES OF THE DA-LEKS MUST BE DES-TROY-ED! EX-TER-MI-NATE THEM!""As you command, Dalek Supreme." Jean said as she bowed."YOU WILL BE GIV-EN INS-TRUC-TIONS WHEN NEED-ED." The Dalek Supreme added."Yes, Dalek Supreme." Jean nodded in obiedence.She stepped on a platform in the center and dematerialized, sent to her enemies to destroy. The Daleks then went to the view screen to observe and as a microphone device descended from above to give orders when necessary."SEND THE OT-HER THREE TO AS-SIST HER!" The Dalek Supreme then ordered. "E-QUIP THE E-TER-NAL KNOWN AS A-JAK TO STRIKE WHEN OR-DERED!"-------Chloe, otherwise now known as Miracle Queen, was causing chaos around her. Just waiting for Ladybug and Cat Noir to show up with ShadowMoth."You will all bow before me as soon as I defeat Ladybug!" Chloe laughed.Her moment was short lived however as she noticed a large shadow looming over her. And promptly got bigger and bigger until she finally leapt out of danger. A limo fell onto the pavement in an act of murder."Who did that?!" Chloe screamed.------A brief flash of light appeared near the very top of the Eiffel Tower.The now mind controlled Ajak, Ms Marvel and Echo walked on the upper platforms to survey the area where their partner was. Despite being up from afar, they could see Queen Bee and ShadowMoth in the area.They stared emotionless at the sight of their targets. Ajak was armed with a futuristic looking rifle supplied by the Daleks. After careful construction and placement aim, the weapon was ready.She looked through the scope and the computer automatically targeted both."DO NOT FI-RE UN-TIL I GIVE THE OR-DER!" The Eternal heard the Dalek Supreme give his orders via comlink."DO YOU UN-DER-STAND?""Yes, Dalek Supreme." Ajak replied in monotone. "We await your orders.""IF THE FIGHT DOES NOT FAVOR THE MU-TANT," The Dalek Supreme added. "NOT ON-LY YOU WILL FI-RE ON OR-DER, YOU AND THE OT-HERS WILL FIGHT TO EX-TER-MIN-NATE THE TAR-GETS AND ANY-ONE WHO COMES WITH-IN VINC-CIN-I-TY! IS THAT UN-DER-STOOD?""Yes, Dalek Supreme." Ajak, Ms Marvel and Echo nodded in unison and in the same monotone voice.-------Finally, a human shaped shadow appeared before Queen Bee and ShadowMoth.Queen Bee looked up in astonishment as soon as she saw who it was. As did Shadow Moth from afar."What the devil?!" He exclaimed in shock and amazement.It was Jean Grey as she floated in mid air and landed gracefully on the ground."One of the missing heroes!" Shadow Moth said. "What is she doing here?""Oh, it's one of you disgusting mutants!" Chloe gagged. "Weren't you freaks now on some dumb island or something?"Jean could only give her a cold, emotionless stare. Almost as if she were a lifeless puppet come to life when needed."What's wrong with you?" Chloe smugly asked before laughing, "Afraid you'll get stung?"She laughed in arrogance at her own pun."You will be exterminated." Jean said in the same emotionless, monotone voice as before and the others.Abruptly, Chloe stopped laughing."What?"-----"YOU WILL BE EX-TER-MI-NATED IN THE NAME OF THE DA-LEK RACE!" The Dalek Supreme said, telling Jean what to say in an attempt to test the microphone mind control device.-------"Resistance is futile." Jean said and continued to drone on. "The Dalek race is supreme. You will not win this battle. Nor any other. You will lose to the greater supremacy of the Dalek race.""Okay, I don't know if this Dalek thing is like your mutant god or something." Chloe said, clearly fed up with the telepath. "But I don't have time for you, muties!""Exterminate." Said Jean as via her telepathy, she threw another car at Chloe.Once again, the girl dodged the vehicle."That's it! I don't care if Ladybug and Cat Noir come or not!" Screamed a frustrated Chloe. "Your mutie butt is mine! And I'm going to need target practice anyway!"She charged at Jean but not before the telepath managed to lift chunks of pavement to throw at her opponent. And now the battle began.------This is basically something of a George Lucas-fied slight rewrite I did. Adding in new elements for the fight. I felt, I could have made this a bit better. So I decided to go back and re post this fight with the tweaks.I may continue the five parter depending how much time the site has left. But as I said before, this is part one of a five fight story arc involving the Daleks as the main villains mind controlling a bunch of kidnapped superheroes.In this fight, it's time displaced Jean Grey is at full power and strength and Chloe is in her Miracle Queen form.The object being if Chloe can survive a mind controlled murderous Jean Grey as she throws everything at her and even Jean delving into Chloe's mind.But there's a catch, if say Chloe were to have the advantage, would she get assassinated by Ajak as ordered by the Dalek Supreme? -

They fought with the rebels at least. XD

Stormtroopers aren't portrayed as the sharpest knives in the drawer. That said, I think they have basic tactics down.
Stormtroopers also don't have a giant "Z" on their chest that acts as a weak point.
Largely depends. Because the image here are Rita's putties.

That's a pretty good party.
Thank you.
Plus really, more people know who Zeus is and being the big Greek god he is, his parties could get metal.

If it's three including the entire group out of possibilities, that's a win.

Let's pretend Hannibal Lecter, from the TV show, lives in Albequeque, New Mexico where Breaking Bad takes place. Walter White enters therapy and Hannibal is his therapist and even other characters like Skyler and Jesse have him as their therapist.
Then Hannibal finds himself while not participating in the meth business but knows what's going on and even manipulates everyone and frames any Breaking Bad character for his murders. Like say, he kills the Nazi gang from the last season and frames Todd for the murders and gets away with it.
How would Hannibal fare with Walter White and the rest of the Breaking Bad characters and can he survive the entire series?

Pretty good set-up, Movie-Brat.
If the likes of Splinter and Agent Bishop could each barely take out more than a few Cybermen on their own, I don't like Natasha's odds much better, even with those EMP weapons. It would've made more sense combat-wise to have also armed some of the other heroes with the weapons to accompany her. Surely at least Dontello would've grasped how to use EMP weaponry easily enough?
Well, I wanted something akin to a big sort of sacrifice deal, keyword being sort of. But something as you described I intend to happen.
12:7 - BJ Blazkowicz vs. Shang-Chi (Marvel Cinematic Universe)
in CBUB Season Draft Matches
Posted
Okay, here's Shang Chi during the bus scene as to how he uses an environment to his advantage.
And this is him when he used the Ten Rings.
