Rules

Each Team must be made up of 5 specific types of characters, each type has it's own limits & restrictions

A Beautiful Mind: Genius prep-character. Cannot be amped in any way by suits or serums. This character gets one week of prep before the beginning of the fight. Cannot have physical stats above Batman.

Unlimited POWAHHH!: Elemental/Energy Specialist. No physical amps above Mr. Freeze, no power output above Electro. This also includes "physical elements" like plants, i.e. Poison Ivy is available.

@joygirl

Before I do anything with my prep I have some quick questions

  • Do Bane & Scarecrow both know who we're fighting during our prep?
  • Can the map be altered in any way during this prep time? Like could Scarecrow go and set up traps or is that a no no?
  • Is Luthor in his battle suit or a dashing suit and tie?
  • Do you prefer Muffins or Doughnuts? This isn't related to the tournament but it's always an essential question.

@thetruebarryallen: Basic knowledge, not many specifics. Scarecrow can set small traps. Luthor is in a dashing suit and tie. And pastries (with jelly or cream inside).

Sorry to be a pain in the tookus but I have ONE last question!

Before I write up my prep I was wondering a bit about the battlefield, I looked up pictures of Mexico City and I found this:

Would we assume that this is what the battleground looks like? And will there be pedestrians still in Mexico City during the battle?

Madness Incorporated.

Bane: Gentlemen, I have gathered you here today to help me conquer a new city, a city where we will be able to run free and not have to fear imprisonment. Each of you has a special set of skills that I require. It appears that we will have some opposition in this mission, other groups also wish to claim the city for themselves, we shall destroy them. You may now introduce yourselves.

Moon Knight - The Psycho Next Door

Moon Knight: Hey, my names Moon Knight, typically I'm fighting with the heroes but I'm more of an Anti-Hero. I was informed by Bane that this mission will allow me to finish off some terrible people, something that the other heroes won't allow me to do. Something about having a strict moral code, I say screw it, so here I am.

Skills & Abilities

  • H2H knowledge given to him through being a boxer, U.S Marine, CIA Operative, Mercenary, and Costumed Hero.
  • Olympic Level Athlete skilled in Gymnastics & Acrobatics
  • Combat Strategist
  • Marksman
  • Pilot

Equipment

  • Carbonadium Armor - Carbonadium is a sub type of Adamantium. Carbonadium is much stronger than steel but is less durable than Adamantium. Though it is less durable it is still nearly indestructible. It can withstand point blank machine gun fire and close proximity explosions. Moon Knight was also able to hold up a collapsing building due to the strength of his armor.
  • Carbonadium Staff - Moon Knights staff is made of the same material his armor is. It should be noted that if Carbonadium is implanted into mutants such as Dakin or Wolverine it will negate their healing factor. This is shown through the fact that Deadpool was able to kill Wolverine with a Carbonadium Katana in the Deadpool kills the Marvel Universe miniseries.
  • Crescent Darts - The Crescent Darts are similar to any fictional throwing weapon such as the Red Robin Throwing Discs or Batarangs. Moon Knight has been shown to throw these with incredible accuracy, their design also allows them to bounce off of other surfaces & boomerang back to Moon Knight. Moon Knight's Crescent Darts were designed by Hawkeye, the famous Marksman Avenger of the Marvel Universe.
  • Truncheon - The Truncheon is a sort of baton that can extend into a staff or function as nun-chucks. Like Daredevil's customized Billy Clubs the Truncheon is able to be thrown and wrap around targets with a hardened steel cable. The Truncheon also has an Anti-Metal field in it due to Antarctic Vibranium. The field loosens the bonds in the molecular structures of other metals, essentially liquifying them, this even works on Adamantium.

Bane - A Beautiful Mind

Bane: As many of you know my name is Bane. I have been preparing for this battle for 7 days, I have chosen all of you because of your unique skill sets and valuable experience. Another reason why you're all here is your wonderful minds, you all appear to have something that makes you.... tick.

Skills & Abilities

  • Peak Physical Strength
  • Genius Level Intellect
  • Photographic Memory
  • Incredible Durability
  • Stealth
  • Tracking
  • Skilled H2H combatant, known for being the only man to "Break the Bat".

Equipment

  • Beretta M9 - The Beretta M9 is a standard pistol used in the U.S Military system. It is semi-automatic & can fit 15 bullets into a single clip. It is effective at 50 meters ( 164 feet ). Bane saw no harm in bringing a simple firearm to the fight, it might be fun to shoot at someone.
  • Twinkie - The Twinkie is an American snack cake. It was marketed as the "Golden Sponge Cake with Creamy Filling". Bane found one during his 7 days of prep and figured he'd want to bring a snack to this battle.

Heatwave - Unlimited Power

Heatwave: I'm only here because Captain Coldsicle is having a hissy fit because I lit a man on fire during our last bank heist. I figured I'd give him some time to cool off while I came down here to light some things up a bit. See what I did there? I tried to make a joke... ehh tough crowd.

Skills & Abilities

  • Fast Reactions
  • Incredibly knowledgeable of Fire & Flames
  • Marksman

Equipment

  • Asbestos Suit - Heatwave has a special suit made of Asbestos that prevents him from feeling the effects of his own flames. It is incredibly durable to extreme heat, this is due to the fact that Heatwaves flamethrower is capable of melting Flash's boots, thus showing that it spits out extremely high temperatures. There is also a mask on the suit that allows Heatwave to breathe normall * protects his eyes from smoke.
  • Flamethrower - Heatwave has a special flamethrower capable of spitting flame at incredibly high temperatures. Due to the fact that Heatwave is a Flash Rouge he had to design a weapon that would be capable of burning the man whose own suit can resist friction at light speeds. The flamethrower has been shown to melt the boots of the Flash & prevent Kid Zoom from harming him.
  • Fire Retardant - Heatwave also has a pipe attached to his left arm that spits out a fire retardant material to put out his own fires. This is hardly used due to the fact that Heatwave is a pyromaniac and loves the way that fire dances.

Carnage - Wrestlemaniac

Carnage: I'm only here because Bane told me that I'd get to kill people... I LOVE TO KILL PEOPLE. He also told me that if I tried to kill any of you he'd have Heatwave roast me alive with that blasted flamethrower of his... so you have no reason to fear me... for now.

Skills & Abilities

  • Superhuman Strength & Durability
  • Shapeshifting, Carnage can turn his arms into weapons such as swords or axes.
  • Healing Factor
  • "Spider Sense"
  • Untrackable by Venom
  • Symbiote Projectiles, Carnage can launch bits of his body that turn into darts, knifes, or anything imaginable that disintegrate after 10 seconds of leaving the host.

Equipment

  • None

Scarecrow - With Science!

Scarecrow: My name is Scarecrow, I'm the master of fear. With me around we'll be able to send our foes into fits of fear, causing them to revert from powerful and intimidating combatants into sniveling babies. I have been sneaking around our arena setting various traps filled with fear gas for our foes to run into, don't worry though, I've brought masks for you so you won't be affected.

Skills & Abilities

  • Fearless, unless you're Batman
  • Brilliant Psychologist
  • Skilled in Violent Dancing

Equipment

  • Fear Gas - Fear Gas is the masterpiece created by The Scarecrow. Obsessed with fear, Scarecrow has created a gas that causes those who breath it in to experience violent and deadly hallucinations. Scarecrow has designed various canisters for this gas to be held in such as straw, and a skull that he carries around with him.
  • Scythe - Scarecrow uses a Scythe with his Violent Dancing Technique.
  • Scarecrow Mask - Scarecrow wears a mask that protects him from the effects of his own Fear Gas & is also used to scare those with a weak mind.

Preparation Time

Bane [ 7 Days Prep ]

Bane was chosen as my "A Beautiful Mind" character, this grants him an extended amount of preparation time. The reason being is that Bane is a strategical genius with a photographic memory. He commonly contends against some of the most advanced minds in the DCU, the prime example being Batman, commonly known as a prep master.

Before I get into exactly what Bane will do in these 7 days I'd like to showcase some of his strategic accomplishments, along with his origin.

Origin - Tough Love

Talk about a cruddy childhood

Learning Abilities - I wish I was that smart

These scans are not in any particular order, they just each display a different side of Bane & his intelligence

Moment of Fame - Breaking the Bat

Learn from the master

As we can see from this Bane spent his early life educating himself on various strategies, sciences, and subjects. His photographic memory would allow him to memorize vital documents, such as a map.

He has basic information on your team, I'm assuming names, so he'll know what we're up against, thus he can prepare his battle plans that I'll explain more in depth below. In terms of his resources, he won't really be depending on any giant robots or some ridiculous weapon of mass destruction, he'll just get ready for an honorable battle of insanity.

So what does Bane even do?

  • Memorizes a Map of Mexico City so that he'll know the layout of the Battleground.
  • Learn the weaknesses of his combatants, figure out their past if possible.
  • Grab himself a Beretta M9 with 2 extra clips, he'd be able to fit that in his pocket.
  • Place a Twinkie into his pocket so that he'll be able to snack on it later.

Bane's photographic memory is vital in this plan due to the fact that he'll be able to learn and thus knowledge every nook and cranny of the battleground. Luthor has genius level intellect but it doesn't mean he'll be able to remember every single passageway, building, or structure in Mexico City. Knowing the battleground will allow Bane to appropriately place the other members of my team so that they'll be able to combat your team at maximum effectiveness.

Scarecrow [ 2 Days Prep ]

The Scarecrow, or Jonathon Crane, is my "With Science" member, this allows him 2 days of preparation time and the ability to bring anything to the battle arena that he could carry on his person, this means that Crane won't be bringing in something crazy like Optimus Prime to aid in the battle.

Crane himself isn't a bulky character, he wouldn't have any desire to face a foe in a brawl match to the death. This in mind Crane would LOVE to set up some fear gas traps around the battleground, he'll pick one building in particular that he will station himself in during the battle that will be loaded with various tripwires to release his famous Fear Gas into the lungs of your team. This will give Crane a slight advantage in combat due to the fact that anyone who trips these traps will begin to suffer extremely violent hallucinations.

Cane wouldn't want to harm his own team however and will bring masks that make them immune to the gas, I'm quite sure he could carry 4 masks with him to a fight. Crane also brings his trusty scythe and some straws containing fear gas to keep on his person.

Rigging the building would probably use up 1 day of his prep time, gathering the items would probably take up 1/4th a day, so he'd use the remaining amount of prep time to do research on his foes, possibly learning what they are most afraid of.

So what does Scarecrow even do?

  • Rigs a specific building in Mexico City with various tripwires that set off fear gas traps.
  • Gathers 4 masks of his own creation to protect his team from the effects of Fear Gas
  • Finds his Scythe that he had moved to his attic after nobody bought it in a yard sale 4 months ago.
  • Grabs some bits of straw that contain fear gas & can be broken to keep with him at all times.
  • Researches your teams & their fears.

Everyone else ?

The rest of my team doesn't get any prep time, so they'll just hang around until the Fight.

@thetruebarryallen Sorry for the delay..laziness..don't have my computer yet blah blah blah you know how it is.

Profiles

Robin

No Caption Provided

Wait a minute..that doesn't look Robin..that doesn't look Robin at all! And since when was Robin a loonie? Well once upon a time Dwayne McDuffie and a bunch of other writers decided to give Robin an OCD. That is to say he became obsessed with defeating Slade. This escalated to the point where he was threatening innocent people and even his own teammates just to find him. And when he did, Slade forced him into becoming his apprentice. And thus..donned the Red X suit. But what can it do?

The Red X suit gives the user access to many of the suits functions and weaponry. These include..

  • X shurikens,
  • Electric Xs
  • X Explosives
  • Both constrictive and adhesive Xs
  • X wristblades
  • Teleportation via power belt
  • X portals

Most of these weapons Robin made himself to combat the Teen Titans. Outside of this suit, Robin is quite a formidable opponent and has been shown to be the best fighter in the Teen Titans to compensate his lack of superpowers.

Peak Human Conditioning: Through intense training, Robin represents the pinnacle of human physical ability. His physical characteristics are greater than that of even an Olympic level athlete. His strength, speed, stamina, agility, reflexes, durability, senses and coordination are at peak human perfection as possible for one of his age, to improve even further with continued physical and mental growth.

Robin engages in intense regular rigorous exercise (including aerobics, weight lifting, gymnastics, and simulated combat) to keep himself in peak condition, and has often defeated opponents whose size, strength, or other physical stats are much higher than his own. He has spent his entire life in pursuit of physical perfection and has attained it through constant intensive training and determination, to the point that, in Apprentice Part 2, he is able to take on all of his teammates at once and beat them (without hurting them due to the Red X suit's weaponry)

  • Peak Human Strength: He is arguably one of the strongest Non-metahumans on Earth. He has been seen punching out opponents that are larger than him and that are nearly invulnerable like Cinderblock. In the episode "The Quest", Robin is able to support a large 800 pound bear guardian on his back.
  • Peak Human Reflexes: Robin's reflexes are amazing. He can leap large distances and dodge point blank projectile fire and has done so many times in the series.
  • Peak Human Speed: Robin is shown to be able to run at above average speed.
  • Peak Human Endurance: Robin's endurance is greater than any human shown in the series. Robin can go a long period of time without stopping once he fixes himself on his work like in "Haunted" and "X".
  • Peak Human Agility: His agility is greater than that of an Olympic-level acrobat. He was raised in an acrobat family known as the "Flying Graysons" and began agility training at the earliest age. He is shown to be able to scale the city buildings.
  • Peak Human Durability: Robin has been shown to be able to handle hits from superhumans and energy blasts quite often.

Lex Luthor

No Caption Provided

Luthor is the brains of this team. That isn't to say everyone else is incompetent, but he would consider himself on a higher level(for good reason). He has constantly shown to be one of DC's greatest minds in virtually every category. He has out smarted the entire Justice League and even other supervillians on multiple occasions. This match is frankly beneath him under normal circumstances..however with the stipulations he has to work around, this should prove to be very interesting.

King Bumi

No Caption Provided

This wide eyed, eccentric 112 year old earthbender is the King of the Earth Kingdom capital city of Omashu. He has around 100 years of earthbending experience and is considered to be the most skilled at the art. The fact that he is in such top physical condition despite his age is one testament to this.

As a master earthbender, he is capable of most(if not all) the feats displayed in the series. Some of these include..

  • Levitating stone houses with ease
  • creating stone pillars
  • tunneling through the earth at remarkable speeds
  • turning solid rock into quicksand
  • creating fissures with stomps

Bumi also retains the exclusive ability of being able to earthbend not just with his limbs, but his face as well. As a master earthbender, he has some martial arts ability though he does not prefer to fight this way.

Green Goblin

No Caption Provided

The gadget man. Norman Osborn was once one of Spidey's greatest and most insane foes. His obsession with stopping Spider Man went from hiring supervillains to take him down to becoming one himself. The Goblin persona was once just a mask and suit, but later it became a separate part of Osborn himself. Whether he wanted it to or not. This came to be with the help of the Goblin formula which while it did increase his already impressive intelligence, cost him what sanity he had left. The Goblin formula gave him..

Superhuman Strength- Strength sufficient for him to lift 9 tons under his own power, and has been able to fight Spider-Man head to head on several occasions.

Superhuman Speed- Osborn also possesses superhuman speed to complement his strength and combat Peter's

Superhuman Reflexes- As Norman's speed has been augmented, so has his reflexes.

Superhuman Durability- The Goblin formula also gave Norman the ability to withstand greater physical damage than a normal human being. While bullets do harm him, he has been able to withstand powerful blows from foes such as Spider Man himself. He's also walked out of his own pumpkin bomb explosions virtually unscathed.

Accelerated Healing- Osborn has a moderate healing factor that was sufficient to save him from death when he was impaled by his own glider. He has also been able to recover from other severe injuries, such as the detonation of several of his own bombs.

His gear consists of..

Pumpkin Bombs- The Green Goblin's trademark weapons were pumpkin bombs. As their name suggests, these bombs were designed with the appearance of Jack-O'-Lanterns. These varied in function, from smoke bombs, incendiary bombs to traditional explosives.

Razor Bats- The Goblin also used bat-shaped, razor discs that could cut through very durable surfaces and superhumans.

Electric Gloves- The gloves of the Green Goblin uniform were fashioned with minuscule conductors that allowed for the release of electricity of an undetermined voltage. Norman would use this as a deadly weapon against Spider-Man in their battles which is a testament to how powerful it is.

Goblin Glider-The Glider allowed the Goblin to carry other objects with him as he flew and had much greater speed and mobility than the Broomstick he previously utilized. The Glider allowed Osborn to easily keep up with a web slinging Spider Man. It also has blades on the front for offensive purposes.

Ultimate Green Goblin

No Caption Provided

There isn't too much to say about Ultimate Norman that hasn't already been said about his 616 counterpart. The formula he took not only drove him insane, but it gave him physical stats and powers far beyond that of 616 Goblin. Some of these include..

Superhuman Strength- Ultimate Green Goblin has been shown to easily overpower Peter Parker in all of their confrontations. As such he has at least 25 ton strength. He can also leap hundreds of feet in the air and easily support all 1000lbs of himself while scaling large buildings.

Superhuman Durability- Norman's skin while not bulletproof can withstand anti tank weaponry and shrug off blows from Spider Man.

Superhuman Speed- Tagging Spider Man has never been a problem for Osborn. His enhanced leg muscles also allows him to run at a considerably high speed sufficient to outrun vehicles

Claws- The formula also gave him razor sharp claws sufficient to tear through steel.

Healing Factor- Osborn can heal from injuries at an incredibly exceptional rate. Automatic gunfire leaves no lasting damage despite the fact he is not bulletproof.

Pyrokinesis- Norman can expel fireballs of differing intensities from his hands. From incendiary to explosive. He can also cause any part of his body to burst into flames.

Thanks! So do you.

I'll probably post prep tomorrow night if not later on today. By the way @joygirl Can our Beautiful Minds person bring serums to give themselves powers?

As do I.

@juiceboks To answer your questions about the Beautiful Mind characters the answer is no.

My Bane is not allowed to use Venom or enhance himself in any way further than his normal status. According to the rules the BM characters cannot bring serums or suits to increase their abilities, this means that Lex cannot have one of his many battle suits or amp himself through serums.

Essentially Beautiful Mind characters can only bring things that would fit in their pockets.

That is a question that @joygirl would have to answer. As far as I know Lex is just in a traditional Suit & Tie, I don't know if he's allowed to have a force field belt.

Nope, no force fields. You could have some gizmos maybe, like a utility belt, but no force fields. Beautiful Minds are not combatants, they are strategists

@thetruebarryallen For prep..really only two people will be involved but these two geniuses are not to be taken lightly.

Luthor

Luthor has resources that extend past any other human on the planet. In addition to monopolizing corporate businesses, owning shares across the world, and protection racketeering, he also deals with more villianous yet extremely lucrative dealings such as weapons manufacturing, supervillian organizations, and interplanetary commerce involving Mongul, Zod and even Darkseid himself. Basically..if Lex can't(or doesn't want to) build it himself, he'll get someone else to bring it for him. If you didn't know all that already..well you might as well end up like this poor fool.

No Caption Provided
No Caption Provided

Anyway..enough with the rightful ego inflation.

In 1 week given the vexatious stipulations, Luthor will be forced to resort to less of his high tech resurces and more of his brainpower.

  • He memorizes a 3-D display of the entire Mexico City using his lab. He also brings it in a portable version inside his pocket for others to see.
  • He sets up a satellite to hover over Mexico City that will project the 3-D image that should also let my team keep tabs on you once the battle starts.
  • He does research on your team and what makes them tick.
  • He brings that gun he used on the Kryptonian and mods it to include a sonic emitter as a secondary function.
  • He makes several earpieces linked to each other and the satellite so they all get direct feedback on where your team is.

Green Goblin

Norman Osborne. The man is as crazy as crazy gets. But it's with that insanity that leads him to create the gadgets and gizmos he utilizes against his arch nemesis Spider Man. So in 2 days, this is what he brings to the fight

  • Goblin Gas Grenades
No Caption Provided
No Caption Provided

  • Gas masks for everyone to protect them from the effects of his gas(and inadvertently from Crane's fear gas).
  • Asphyxiation/netting ghost bombs
No Caption Provided
No Caption Provided
No Caption Provided

  • Sonic grenades once used at toads.
No Caption Provided
  • Incendiary bombs
No Caption Provided

All of these things he already has and will only be bringing in excess amounts. As such, he'll be spending most of his time making a gas to nullify (at least some of) Cletus' powers much like he did to Peter.

Alright, time to create the first battle post.

Earlier in my Prep Time I had Scarecrow lay some traps throughout a building that would release Fear Gas, so this building will be the base of operations for my team and will be where they stay throughout the match.

I don't know if you're allowed to have a satellite in the battle, I'd have to ask @joygirl, but if you are that's fine, I'm confident that my team would be able to beat your team even if you got the drop on us somehow.

So since we're in this building and not moving you're going to have to come towards us, allowing us to spring a trap instead of you doing so.

I'm assuming that the fastest members on your team would be Green Goblin, Ultimate Green Goblin, and Red X, as he can teleport.

If this is true then they'll be the first to get to the building, and my team will attack on sight.

It will be Moon Knight's job to take down the Normal Green Goblin, he's had plenty of combat experience against the Hob Goblin who is a rather similar character in terms of strength, speed, and gimmicks, so that will let him know what to expect.

Here are some of Moon Knight's combat feats:

Fighting an insane Hobgoblin, using his wits to defeat him & is able to evade a majority of his attacks and even leap to his glider!
Beats Hobgoblin to a pulp before being held back by Spiderman.
Various accuracy feats, he'll be deadly with his Crescent Darts
His armor is incredibly durable, and should withstand any blasts from Pumpkin Bombs

When the Green Goblin flies by Moon Knight will leap onto his Glider and begin fighting him, his armor is incredibly durable and he's got a massive resistance to pain. His familiarity with Hobgoblin should allow him to quickly adjust to the fighting style of the Green Goblin and allow him to overcome him. Since the GG will have to focus on flying his Glider he wouldn't be as effective in a fight, and Moon Knight's Anti-Metal field should be able to melt right through GG's armor, allowing Moon Knight to beat him to an unrecognizable pulp, and without Spiderman to hold him back that's the likely outcome.

The first scan shows that Moon Knight HAS an Anti-Metal field and the 2nd & 3rd scans show what Anti-Metal does, it melts right through Adamantium so it should melt right through GG's armor.

With Moon Knight attacking Green Goblin and bringing him down the rest of my team will be left to combat Red X & Ultimate Green Goblin while Luthor & Bumi appear.

Bane has experience fighting members of the Bat Family, he's broken the back of Batman, has fought Nightwing and won, and is generally used to their fighting style. Due to his experience with this it'll be his job to bring down Red X.

Typically people think that Bane without Venom is useless, they think or assume that he needs venom in order to win a fight, this is false.

Bane laughs off some hits from Catman, he isn't on Venom at this period in time. He's got some nice durability.
Here he's been hit with 500+ bricks while being tortured. He still has the strength to break free from one of his chains and kill one of his captors.
Here Bane fights Azrael on two different occasions. Scans 1 -4 show him beating Azrael and his manservent in combat without Venom. In the scans after the 4th he gets into another fight with Azrael and the ship they're on crashes into the rocks surrounding an island. Bane is still standing strong after the crash and climbs the face of the mountain before Azrael and tricks him into a trap. He had also gotten Azrael addicted to Venom before this to weaken his mind and his body
In scans 1 - 4 Bane gets shot and then continues bashing skulls. In the last scan he rips off a collar that was supposed to kill him.
Here Bane fights Killer Croc. In their previous encounter he broke both of Crocs arms. Bane isn't on Venom here and is able to hold his own rather well, even in water! Heck Tim doesn't want to stay around that long because he knows it'd be trouble!

If you need any more scans of Bane's combat ability & durability then I can provide them, but I think this should suffice for now.

Bane also has a gun on him so he can take shots at Red Robin before he closes in the distance between the two. So while Red Robin may have some impressive Tech, Bane has some impressive durability. He should be able tor resist the Electric X's if he gets tagged by one, and he's had a building fall on him before and survived so the Explosive ones aren't much of a worry either. Since Scarecrow is waiting for Luthor and Luthor hasn't arrived yet he'd also be assisting Bane in this encounter, so it's Bane & Scarecrow vs Red X. I haven't seen much of Red X's fighting abilities so I won't say that it's a 100% win here but I'm fairly confident that Bane can overcome Red X in a fight.

This leaves Carnage & Heatwave to go against Ultimate Green Goblin. Ultimate Green Goblin may be able to create fire, but it doesn't mean he's 100% fire proof, and a hot enough flame should be able to burn him.

Carnage would do his job by creating really sharp projectiles made from his Symbiote that he'd launch at UGG. Carnage would aim for the eyes in this instance as UGG's eyes shouldn't be resistant to heavy damage, as most highly resistant characters have weak points on the inside of their body such as their eyes or mouth. If this doesn't work then Carnage will try and extend his appendages down the throat of UGG to suffocate him. He can do some pretty crazy things with them.

Did he just reach through a computer screen? I think he did.

While Carnage is tying to slow UGG down Heatwave would be running towards him with his Flamethrower, ready to burn him in place.

Heatwave's suit should resist the fire projectiles that UGG has with ease, as it's incredibly fireproof. His flamethrower is also impressive, it's able to melt the boots of The Flash & could hold Inertia in place, both of these people are speedsters who have suits highly resistant to heat as they go through intense friction.

Scan 1 shows the flame resistance of his suit, while scans 2 and 3 show different instances in which he uses his almighty flamethrower

I feel as if Carnage alone would give UGG a run for his money as they're both incredibly powerful, adding Heatwave into the mix to slow UGG down and melt his flesh just makes it a breeze for my team.

By this point in time Moon Knight should be finished with GG and will rejoin the fight, arriving either around the same time as Luthor or Bumi, or shortly afterwards.

The moment that Luthor enters the building Scarecrow will want to kill him, he stills hates him for what happened during Blackest Night.. YOU STOLE HIS RING!

Scarecrow isn't really known for his fighting abilities, and that scan of Luthor defeating a Kyrptonian is impressive. So I don't believe that Scarecrow will win a fight against Luthor, but he'd try and catch him off guard. The Scythe would be able to pierce Luthors skin and cause some damage, but I don't know for sure if he'd actually get time to nab a hit on him.

Scarecrow was really on my team for the purpose of fear gas.

So with Luthor still running around and Red X probably finished Bane & Moon Knight will attack him. Their durability & combat abilities should be enough to overwhelm Luthor. I don't think Luthor has an impressive dodging feats so Bane could shoot him with his Beretta or Moon Knight could tag him with several crescent darts, thus killing him. Moon Knight can also use his Anti Metal field to rid Luthor of his powerful gun that he created.

This leaves UGG & Bumi.

UGG should fall to Carnage & Heatwave, but if that isn't the instance then Moon Knight will help bring him down using his Darts by tagging him in the eyes. He's got some pretty nasty accuracy with em so they should hit.

Once UGG is down everyone focuses on Bumi, and I don't know much about Avatar characters, but Carnage's ability to shift his body in various ways should be enough to dodge the attacks that Bumi creates and get to Bumi to kill him. Once Carnage get's to Bumi Bane, Moon Knight, and Heatwave would run in to help finish him off with a barrage of fists, crescent darts, fire, and symbiote stuff.

I look forward to your response @juiceboks!
