5. The Not OP Justice League - Hal Jordan, Green Arrow, Aquaman, Firestorm, Black Canary, Cyborg, and Donna Troy

They lose round 1 because no one is stopping juggernaut. If he wasn't there, they'd probably clearly do to jeans telepathy and their experience as a team.

Stops at 3

Shouldn't their experience help them in being able to stop Juggs?

Really? Any specific reason?

magneto is the big problem for round 1 but i still say they clear.

Cold can stop all but Iceman, sinestro can counter TP, and vertigo can hancle iceman. Ivy and deathstroke can isolate them and handle a few weaker ones.

You think they will all clear as a team or will they lose some along the way?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't Gambit be able to charge the ice so it will explode? The same question poses for Cyclop's optic blast, Bishop's energy blasts, Jubilee's fireworks, Storm's abilities, and Cannonball's propulsion.

Cold's ice is organic, and highly unimportant. It's just a side effect of him stealing the motion from atoms. Unless any of those things can make it through his absolute zero force field, all of those guy get frozen fast.

And no one can avoid cold's blasts. He's tagged flash and kid zoom.

Stop at Injustice League

They beat all other than the last 2.

They could possibly clear. No one here is going to be able to put Iceman down.

@youngjustice: i assumed they would get to replenish there ranks along the way if not there is no way they make it.

They beat the 2 that's about it

@youngjustice: you can't harm jugs. How can they stop him? BFR is the only way, and I'm not sure if any of them can do that or even if BFR is allowed.

I see, good points.

Reasons? I assume CC?

Reasons?

Do you think in the end Iceman would be the only one left?

No, did you read the battle conditions fully?

I'm assuming you are referring to the Future Foundation? Any reasons why?

You should read the battle conditions fully.

Not to mention that Kitty, Psylocke, and Jean are more than capable.

@youngjustice Captain Cold does help but the main reason is Sinestro. He could just remove the supply of oxygen to the Mutants causing them to pass out or just BFR them to the Anti-Matter universe.

Round 3. Sinestro and Cold ftw.

Round 1 is the biggest challenge. If they clear that, they clear.

Iceman will go HAM. Don't under estimate Cyclops' blast. If he goes full on, he could be super dangerous. Then Storm? Whew

Um Cyclops' energy blast will easily stop cold. He is a non-factor.

@youngjustice: lol my bad. Yeah they clear. No ones putting down iceman and Phoenix can easily BFR most opponents.

Jean doesn't have access to the PF here. Just imagine her like she was in The Twelve I guess..

Juggernaut AND mystique?. Stops at round 1 with a big showdown

Since when can cyclops hit through absolute zero? Or avoid blasts that flash can barely dodge? Hell even his lasers will slow down.

Go ahead and show scans of energy not getting past his cold shield. Matter ≠ energy. Not only that but Cyclops is probably quicker on the draw than this guy. He may be a Flash villain, and I'm not trying to downgrade this, but he is still human. Nothing suggests he quicker on the draw than Cyc.

Show me scans of his blasts moving through absolute zero.

Also, there's this. Cold has a comparable draw to cyclops.

just don't make storm mad, if she just say for get this, and goes all out...nobody has a chance but thor, probably hulk.

No he doesn't. So now I'm on you.

Captain Cold doesn't shoot Flash. He doesn't aim and then fire, like Cyclops. He has a cold-field that is emitting from him that then slows Flash down. He has various ways in which he slows Flash down in order to tag him. This isn't really a big deal and it has nothing to do with how quick he is on the draw.

Cyclops however, has hit speedsters before. Not that Cold is a speedster anyway.

And as for your little absolute zero stunt: Absolute zero doesn't stop light, or energies similar to light from moving. It's simply not how absolute zero works. Cyclops' can get through the shield and he will hit Cold.

@marvel_boy2241: Colds field doesn't slow down flash unless he runs into it, the gun just slows down stuff around him. It still shows he has insane draw speed, plus wally is leagues faster than northstar and quicksilver, who cyclops has tagged(though northstar blitzed him easily once). @thetruebarryallen can you back me up here?

@highaccuser: I feel as if Iceman is going to counter Captain Cold in all honesty :3

Maybe stops at Sinestro, definitely at Thor and Hulk, ironically, can beat the last group. Luckily Juggs can be BFR'd or they'd stop at 1.

Agreed, but sinestro can counter cold before it gets to that.

Honestly, I don't see them getting past 1

@darkraiden: agreed. I don't see them clearing this.
