Welcome to round 1 of the gran tournament to find the greatest warriors of the day. Remember the rules.
With that your warriors will start in the pub to gather basic info (like wiki info) on your competition. Your team can use the night to drink and discuss strategy as well get to know each other.
The next day you will fin your foes on the battlefield for a fight. You both will start 30 feet away from the middle (total of 60 feet distance) and must win by Death or KO. Morals are on.
@darkraiden: I limited it to one single IF attack per battle.
I see that but...it still busted a freight train and a helicarrier. That's like limiting someone to one nuke per battle. If it hits, it's an automatic OHKO due to the limits of the tournament.

Either debate it out, or forfeit. I am done with the rule arguing and no one spoke up against him. Im kinda done with the nit picking that went on for the last 4 days.
If he tries to use it thats a clear rule break, call him out on it.

Well i can't debate it if it's allowed since he'll just point to the fact that you, the tourney creator, specifically allowed him to use it. That shouldn't be the criteria to get past limits, that no one calls him out and that you don't feel like ruling against it.

Again, I gave everyone a chance to hash it out. No one did and there is still a major sh!t storm over Cassandra Cain in this. I posted matches. If it breaks the rules, he cant use it. If he uses within the rules (however that may be possible) then cool.

Jack's story first began when he was born after Aku had his imprisonment by the hands of Jack's father. About a decade later, Aku escaped by an eclipse. Jack's mother went into hiding and sent Jack to train around the world, as was planned by his parents should Aku ever escape his prison and Jack's father fail to stop him. After years of training with some of the greatest warriors of the time, Jack returned to the temple his mother was hiding in and was given the sword his father used to defeat Aku with and his signature kimono.
Jack travelled to the castle of Aku and found his father enslaved and nearly skin and bones. He warned Jack that it was too early for him to fight Aku, but he didn't listen and continued on. Jack then confronted the sorcerer and the battle began. Jack managed to severely wound Aku, but before he could deal the final blow, Aku opened a time portal and threw Jack into it, sending him centuries into the future.
When Jack finally escaped the portal, he found himself in a dystopian future THAT ISAKU.
Jack fights for honour, Justice and all that is good.
Armed with a sword created by Odin, Ra and Vishnu, Jack vanquishes all evil in his path and knows no equal, well except for the Scotsman...
Here are some of his feats:
==========================
He can jump hundreds of feet in the air, solo advanced robot armies, survive re - entry, deflect machine - gun fire with his sword, defeat gods and demons, etc.
- He dropped a glass of water from waist height, and then defeated 10 bounty hunters, sheathed his sword, and then picked up the glass before it had even fallen to the ground.
- He ran across a field some 300 meters or so in length, dodging arrows from 3 supernaturally - enhanced archers capable of firing thousands of arrows per second each (who had previously decimated an entire robot army in the span of a few seconds), and he reached their tower, climbed up to the top, and defeated them. He also did this blindfolded.
- He defeated 3 elemental goddesses who controlled the elements of rock, wind, and water, and had proven capable of defeating even Aku (who is usually invulnerable to normal attacks).
- He defeated the minions of the Egyptian God Set, who were super fast, strong, and seemingly indestructible to any attack.
- He is also trained as a ninja, and can make himself invisible by blending in with broad daylight.
- He defeated Demongo, a magical being who had the souls of thousands of defeated warriors within his body, and could release them all at once to attack Jack, and if one was defeated it would simply return to his body and he could call it back again. Demongo could fly, and just sat up in the air while his army of thousands of warriors battled Jack. These were considered to be some of the greatest warriors of all time, yet Jack was defeating them easily, he was only being worn down due to the fact that there were so many and every one he defeated would come right back. Eventually he grabbed onto the defeated soul of one, rode it back into Demongo’s body, and destroyed him from the inside out.
- He is trained in all types of fighting styles from around the entire world.
- He has fallen off of a huge mountain and survived.
- He defeated Aku’s ultra - assassin robots, each of them was imbued with some of Aku’s power, they each had specialized weapons and abilities (such as machine guns, fuel - rod guns, flamethrowers, invisibility cloaks, swords, chainsaws, etc.) They were made of adamantium, and at first Jack couldn’t cut them, but after recieving a cybernetic arm device from a scientist who helped create the robots, he was able to defeat them, except for the last one, because the power on the arm ran out. However, Jack summoned power from his ancestors to increase his strength and cut him anyway.
- Jack’s sword is a cosmic artifact, created by 3 ancient gods, and is apparently completely indestructible, as well as capable of destroying evil with a touch, and one of the only weapons capable of truly harming and killing Aku.
- He managed to overcome and defeat an evil copy of himself created by Aku, who had all of his skills and abilities.
- He can fight for days on end before tiring.
- He defeated an ancient Norse Warrior who could control the minerals of the earth underground and beat him in his own domain.
- He was crushed by a 700 - ton sumo wrestler but just got back up again.
- Even when he was transformed magically into a chicken, he was still capable of defeating huge and powerful robots and monsters without using any weapons.
- His sword shattered the gauntlets of the Titan Chronos.
Daniel Rand was the son of businessman Wendell Rand, who had once lived in the fabled city of K'un-Lun, which exists in another dimensional realm. Wendell Rand-K'ai, as he was known there was the eldest son and heir of Lord Tuan, who ruled K'un-Lun, in the guise of the August Personage in Jade. However, Wendell was driven from K'un-Lun by his brother, who not only wanted to rule K'un-Lun himself, but who was Wendell's rival for the love of a woman named Shakirah. It was Wendell that Shakirah chose, and she bore him a daughter, Miranda. Wendell found refuge on Earth and became a successful businessman in the United States. In his absence, Tuan died and Wendell's brother succeeded him as Yu-Ti, the August Personage in Jade. Wendell married a woman named Heather, who bore him a son, Daniel.
Wendell sought to return to K'un-Lun, which ordinarily was only accessible from Earth through an interdimensional nexus that opened once every ten years. When Daniel was nine, his father traveled to Tibet along with Heather and his business partner HaroldMeachum in search of the nexus to K'un-Lun. Toppling off a treacherous mountain passage, Daniel dragged his mother and father over the ice shelf with him. While he and his mother landed on a ledge below, his father dangled over the sheer drop of the mountainside and called to his partner for help. Hoping to take over Rand's share of the business, Meachum instead caused him to lose his grip and plunge to his death. Though Meachum offered to help Heather Rand and her son, they spurned him. Attempting to make it back to camp on their own, Heather and her son spied a long suspension bridge as a pack of wolves attacked. Heather tried to hold them off long enough for her son to get to safety and was killed in the effort.
Soon thereafter, denizens of K'un-Lun found the boy and took him to their city. There Daniel was brought before Yu-Ti, who had secretly plotted the murder of both Wendell and Heather.Yu-Ti apprenticed Daniel to the martial arts master Lei Jung the Thunderer.
Rand's training under Lei Kung was rigorous. At age sixteen Rand earned the Crown of Fu-Hsi, king of the vipers, vanquished four foes in the ritualistic Challenge of the Many, and defeated Shu-Hu, a mechanical being whose name means "Lightning". Rand diligently conditioned his hands by thrusting them into tubs of hot sand, then gravel, and finally rock.
At age nineteen Rand was given the opportunity to gain the power of the Iron Fist. He was sent to battle the enormous fire-breathing serpent called Shou-Lou the Undying which lived in a cave outside the city and which ferociously guarded a brazier containing its heart, which had mystically been removed from its body. In their battle Rand grabbed the serpent's body, which bore a scar which imprinted itself upon Rand's chest. Killing the serpent, Rand plunged his hands into the now unguarded brazier containing Shou-Lao's molten heart when his hands shone with a quasi-mystical force and he earned the title "Iron Fist," for he could now summon superhuman energy to reinforce the power of blows struck by his hands.
==============================
Don't really have feats for him like i did Jack, i'll add them as we battle. Just know he has:
Superhuman:
Skill
- Speed/Reflexes
- Healing
- Striking Power
He also has:
- Energy defense/absorption
And a variety of other abilities such as:
-Energy detection
-Merges minds with someone (later became able to do it without giving his whole life to a person and only do select emotions. and do it on groups. Don't have that scan though)
-Can reduce his body's energy output to almost zero (basically a death like state) and he can dampen his pain sensors
-Can use ranged attacks
-Can enhance objects with Chi
-Has the hypnotic fist (basically the Jedi mind trick)
-His senses are so good he hears a girl sweat from behind him.
-Demonstrated the ability to detect a threat to his well-being in his immediate vicinity before they commit the action; such as (Iron Fist Killer)
-Multiple projectiles that not only use force but set nearby people on fire (technique learned from the book of Iron Fist)
-Can create a fiery dragon
-Long range Karate chops
-Rand has the ability to sense the emotions/feelings of people and animals, can broadcast his own feelings in order to influence other people and/or animals emotions psionically.
-Under certain circumstances, he can even focus his chi to create nexus points between dimensions.
-Can take normal objects (like a communicator) and turn them into deadly shrapnel.
(Which are going to be used as a replacement for not being able to spam his Iron Fist.)
Tony Masters gained an ability known as "photographic reflexes" during a mission as a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent. This ability enabled him to watch another person's physical movements and duplicate them without any practice, no matter how complex. It was only limited by the fact that the memories he gained by watching others overwrote his personal memories. He was previously a naturally gifted athlete who trained himself to superb physical condition. He committed the fighting styles of Captain America, Black Panther, Daredevil, Elektra, Hawkeye, Punisher, Tigra,USAgent, Spider-man and Wolverine to memory, as well as many others.
He trained his body to be in peak physical condition and engaged in intensive regular exercise. His strength, endurance, stamina, reflexes, and agility were on the level of an Olympic athlete. He was nearly the physical equal of Captain America. In addition to his ability to copy the fighting techniques of others, he had mastered hundreds of forms of unarmed combat and had created some of his own original techniques as well. The Taskmaster was skilled in the use of all conventional weaponry. He was an unerring marksman as a result of the skills of various champions he committed to memory. These skills included most present-day and many historical martial arts, boxing, wrestling, swordsmanship, archery, marksmanship, gymnastics, aerial acrobatics and sleight of hand.
Taskmaster vs Iron Man.The Taskmaster had scientists duplicate versions of a variety of weapons used by super-humans which he could use with nearly as great facility as their respective owners. He had a copy of Daredevil's multipurpose billy club, Hawkeye's trick arrows and bow, the Black Knight's sword, and a shield designed like Captain America's (but it was not indestructible; it was only an osmium alloy). He also sometimes carried a .45 caliber Colt automatic, which he could use in the style of the Punisher.
==============================
In this battle he is going to be using a bow and arrow, sword and shield. You all understand his character, no feats really needed right now.

------------------------------------
And finally, some questionable things:
The following Jack Feats:
He dropped a glass of water from waist height, and then defeated 10 bounty hunters, sheathed his sword, and then picked up the glass before it had even fallen to the ground.
He was crushed by a 700 - ton sumo wrestler but just got back up again.
The first seems like Jack would surpass combat and running speed limits, the second sounds like he surpasses durability and possible strength limits.
Now I can't be sure since I haven't seen them, but once there's video evidence or something, just seems like it'd be above limits. So this part is for you Gojira.
Jack didn't move around much when he beat those 10 bounty hunters, it was more them all comiing at him and him reacting.
That was like one of Jack's most OP feats, don't worry about it, on average, Jack bleeds about every episode or every second episode..
I'll have my strategy up in a few hours, must ask though, what's Black Dynamites resistance to cutting force, because he can tank really big explosions just fine (spaceship).
So Danny, Jack and Tony are sitting in the bar wearing casual clothes (Taskmaster is still wearing a mask though) when they realise they need information on the people they are fated to battle on the next day, they all employ different strategies to get it. They had already given each other a rundown on what they can each do and were familiar with each other (note: arely any of Danny's new abilities are on any wiki's etc, so not much info should be given about them).
Danny walks up to the bartender, the guy who should have the most info and uses his hypnotic fist technique:
Gallery
Tony is going to go up to the most dangerous looking guy in the bar and look for information, and if he doesn't comply then this guy get's a beating akin to that of Black Panther/Captain America while mimicking this guy so that not one hit lands on him and then tell Tony everything he knows about them.
Jack is going to go and order some tea, hopefully some girl walks up to him and asks him what he wants to know, to which he asks about his enemies.
(Not sure if @gojira2014 gives me the information or i just make up my own)
And if anyone get's hurt in this, Danny can heal them no problem, but none of them will, way too skilled.
You didn't really do anything that I have to counter...
I went to the bar, got info on your team, then rested for the next day, the ball is in your park.
Um...don't we just get info on you regardless? Don't think we have to go to the bar. Just lay out the plan for fighting and stuff.
You both have info on each other teams, you can use the bar time to explain how your characters will learn to click as a team and such. Other than that, have at it.

We meet at the bar to hash out a strategy before hand, then we meet on the battlefield and use said strategy.
Strategy
1. Immediately we start the ranged assault. Black Dynamite throws his shuriken boomerangs (let's just say 3 or something) and Connor shoots arrows 7 at a time. Both of these will go at Taskmaster. The shuriken boomerangs are unpredictable (something Taskmaster has a problem with seeing as he can't seem to touch Deadpool in a fight) so he'll be on guard for that and won't be able to do much about Connor's 7 arrows going through his body/head/arms/etc.
If he focuses on the arrows, the shuriken boomerangs take off a limb or his head. if he focuses on the shuriken boomerang things, the arrows take him apart. So Tasky's out in the first few seconds.
2. As this happens, Afro goes to meet Jack and IMO is the faster and more vicious of the two so he'll at the very least drive Jack back for a good while eventually winning and cutting him in two or in half or w/e. Black Dynamite also goes after Iron Fist, and due to the fact that he's dual wielding swords, Danny will have to back off, be careful, and play defensive or he dies.
3. After Connor finishes with Tasky (due to # 1 up there) he turns his attention to Iron Fist. Danny won't be able to avoid both Connor (and his 7 arrows at once with speed that outdrew Deadshot) and Black Dynamite's relentless assault, so he'll be taken out.
4. If Jack hasn't been sliced and diced by now, he's taken out by a 3v1 assault.
1.) This is a bit farfetched, Taskmaster can time bullets, he's going to have no problem timing arrows and boomerangs. He can look at his opponents, and before they make there move Taskmaster will know it, he'll be able to easily track where and how the attacks are coming.
You also seem to forget the fact that Taskmaster has a Sword and Shield in hand, he's going to block the Arrow's and cut up/deflect/redirect the boomerangs so they don't hit him, this guy has the shield wielding ability of Captain America, coupled with the movements of Black Panther, The Ebony Knight etc, so that won't be a problem for him.
2.) This is also farfetched, Jack has the reactions and speed necessary to slice and dice Afro up. Jack regularly cuts through robots and steel, even adamantium, what stops him from slicing Afro's sword by the hilt then finishing him off? Jack was able to react to the best archers in his universe, just three of them, who were able to take out whole armies of thousands or more in seconds, they fired over 50 arrows each per second. He's able to dodge bullets from every machine gun that the robot droids use easily. There is no possible way Afro has the speed advantage in this, Afro is going to be on defense the whole fight and his sword is going to be cut in half.
3.) Black Dynamite won't put Danny on the offensive, What stops danny from just amping his arms to snap the swords, or hitying Dynamite with ranged attacks like his fiery dragon? Danny times arrows and bullets all at once, it's so natural and fluid to him, dodging swords will be a walk in the park. Danny could just slice this guys whole torso apart from his body, from a distance, so i don't see how he will be pressured in any way.
4.) All of my team live, Black Dynamite goes down hard, Afro after time then they all go and support Taskmaster (in your situation anyway)
------------------------
My plan:
Jack is going to go stealth, yes, he will do it in broad daylight, he was able to sneak on ninja in broad daylight. He's going to kill Afro quickly and silently, and even if Afro somehow reacts to Jack, Jack will easily take him down.
And if Black Dynamite somehow get's into close comt, One shots him or sets him on fire.
Taskmaster is going to be blocking Conner's attacks and he'll make his way into close combat, then he'll copy Conner's style while imidding in the skills of people like Cap, Black Panther and Ebony Knight.
He might not beat Conner, but he will surely hold him off long enough for support from Danny and Jack.
This looked like it was off to a great start, but after that there never really was a debate, since there was really only one counter from SA. So I suppose I vote SA.
I don't want it to sound like I'm putting down either of their debating skills, because it looks like DR missed that his post was up, so there never really was a chance for this to get going. SA's one counter seemed solid enough, and I'm sure if DR would have noticed, this would have been a great debate, but as it stands, I've got to vote SA.
