LM CLassic Semi-finals: Puck vs Logical-Master

Let's Dance! "Instantly as the battle begin, Apocolypse uses telepathy to locate every presence capable of producing thought in the city. Usually, something along the lines of cerebro would be needed to boost one's telepathic powers to the point of finding specific people in an entire city, but since the rules stipulate that combatants are the only people involved, this shouldn't be necessary." First Contact: Sinister doesn't like mental trickery. At all. The first twinge of the mind of Apocalypse allows equally, Sinister access to Apocalypse. Sinister uses the contact to remove Apocalypse from city limits (it's a short nudge after all). This ability has defeated highest level Marvel psychics, holding in check and manipulating the bodies of Nate Grey (Cable), Jean Grey, Madelyne Pryor and Psylocke, so apparently mental prowess is not the issue here in terms of defense (I can provide scans if needed of such events). Should Apocalypse deem it appropriate to mount a psychic counterattack, such an event will backfire. Sinister is able to redirect such powers back at the opponent manifold. If Apocalypse resists, such a feedback presents serious hazard to several members of your team, notably Spiderman, Batman and base Amazo (you place this event first, prior to powering up). Damned if you do, damned if you don't. http://img169.imageshack.us... The location of my team is unable to be given to Doomsday, which assumed on my opponents behalf a trouble free opening mental sortie. The issue of Sinister not being present is far from given and his mind is present defending all other members. "Since no one else on my opponent's team can move that quickly, he could very well do the same to the rest of them. But for the purpose of efficiency, I shall argue more than just that." Unfortunately (not for me) such delays as with the location of my team enables them to act in accord with Sinister's opening mental assault. --------------------------------------------- Concurrent with the start of the battle: --------------------------------------------- Sage boosts Sinister's abilities. Sinister's abilities are genetic based, Sage has the ability to over-boost genetic abilities. Her faster than super computer processing speed allows her to in short time power up Mr Sinister (this boost of course applies to any ongoing mental duel). http://marvel.wikia.com...(Tessa)_(Earth-616) Spiral creates a bubble around the team. Then Spiral becomes invisible. http://img63.imageshack.us... Engineer produces a multitude of nanite teams, then duplicates herself. http://img63.imageshack.us... Deadpool teleports to a sealed location, given by Engineer, and prepares. "Powering up Amazo" Granted at this stage Amazo has Doomsday and Spiderman's abilities, not so Apocalypse. No matter though. After the initial stage, Sage locates the remaining members of the opposing team. Amazo's unique electronic nature (and now size :P) is enough to be found, the rest are organic and no trouble for Sage. Spiral opens portal and the nanites are released. One set is sent towards the Batman/Spiderman duo. Molecular sized nanites capable of transmitting paralysis inducing chemicals would appear to be a problem for this doomed duo. The nanites seek and deliver. Batman and Spiderman are rendered unusable, not even aware what took them out. The second set head for Amazo. Android. Electronic. Susceptible to electronic disruption and Angela's nanites can do precisely that, able to put out a field that disrupts electronic based artifacts. At best Amazo is shut down, at worse powered down. "Batman ought to able to find his location the old fashioned way (assuming Deadpool intends to hide)." Old fashioned way? Detective work? What exactly would Batman find? Clues left lying around? Deadpool teleports and the duo (assuming they are still alive) have a whole city to search (inside and out). "After a brief exchange of wisecracks, Spider-Man and Batman would have no problem besting the merc with a mouth in combat (Batman has studied every martial art known to man and Spider-man has fought well against the best of martial artist in the Marvel Universe and both are known for besting opponent's out of their league, not that Deadpool is)." Deadpool has defeated an opponent who precisely knew his all his moves and precisely what moves he would make (the fight is not so clear cut and I can provide scans of such). Moot however since you have to survive molecular nanites and then find Deadpool who is preparing. :) === That will do for now. :)
