DC Comics' Infinity Challenge

Posted in Off Topic

Over at my other message board I frequent, , they do a big tournament every year called "Contest of Champions". In it anyone can manage a team of Marvel heroes & villains to fight against other members' teams. You submit one fighter at a time from your 5 fighter team to face off against the opposite team's fighter. There's one fight a night. You win by getting as many votes as you can for your fighter from the community. You submit a rationale as to why your fighter would win to sway the votes. And you can continue to argue for your fighter as the voting continues. The current contest of champions is still going on, but near the end. I was a manager (my 1st one ever) of a team, but I was eliminated about 5 fights ago (we're up to fight 70 now).

Well they have just started their first ever DC Comics version of the game call "DC Infinity Challenge. We're now in the team draft part at the very beginning. If any of you want to join, I'm sure there's still time, you'd just be moved to the bottom of the draft list. I'm #11, so I have a ways to go. There's the link:



I need a little help on my draft nominees. The power cap is set at Superman, and you can only have 1 Lantern of any color, and 1 Kryptonian on your team. The choices I have left that aren't over the power cap, dead, or already picked are:

-Black Adam
-Captain Marvel (Freddy Freeman)
-Superman
-Mongul - Sinestro Corps or Sinestro himself (My one Lantern)
-Cyborg Superman
-Flash - Wally West
-Reverse Flash
-Alan Scott (For some reason, he doesn't count as a Lantern in the rules)
-Amazo
-Captain Comet
-Maxima
-Metallo
-Miss Martian
-Parasite
-Sabbac
-Solomon Grundy
-Metamorpho

Any other guys that would totally smash the competition that I didn't think of? Because my picks are being snatched up fast!

I looked it up, the new rule is anything Jakeem wishes for now must be compensated for somewhere else. For example: if he wishes for 10 damaged houses that were beat-up in a JSA fight to be rebuilt, then 10 other houses on the other side of the world are destroyed. And I'm a ruthless manager because these are just fantasy innocents, not real innocents, so I don't care about that rule.

And Legion characters are only eligible if present in the 21st century, such at Starman/Starboy. Here's the rule on time travellers: They must either be based in the present, or have an easily accessible means of time travel. (And any time travel won't matter in the actual fight because travelling to another time would be considered fleeing and you forfeit). So Booster Gold is allowed, because he has his time machine, but the Legion of the 31st Century isn't.

Ya I remember major force dying only reason I brought up jar was cause I figured wally would have been a early pick while jay may have went overlooked.

Karate kid from the legion is another person I wouldn't mind having on my team also ultra boy and the was 1 more on the level of superman can't remember his name.

Just be careful with jakeem I mean tenth age of magic and what not phantom stranger is worth looking at (but he may be overpowered) and dr fate oooh black alice to counter any other magic user would be smart

I wish! But he's from an alternate reality, so is off-limits. Even if he wasn't, I'm sure he'd be over the power-cap anyways. Superman would be squashed like a bug by Doctor Manhattan.

Great choices! I had Power Girl in the back of mind, because I figured Superman would probably be picked. I do have Wally West in my list above. But Jay Garrick is just getting too old anymore, he can't push it like Wally or Bart for long anymore. Captain Atom was a first pick for me, but he showed up in the over the power limit list, because of his recent Monarch upgrade. And his counterpart, Major Force, is dead.

Whooo!!! Jakeem Thunder has just been okayed for me!

Darkseid & Orion are dead, Mr. Myxptlk is over the power limit. Deathstroke seems like a good pick but you only have to subdue your opponent, it's not to the death. Everyone is picking Superman, Flash, and Green Lantern level guys; he doesn't really stand that much of a chance.
