8-A Tournament of Protags and Antags

[Naito-desu]

Rules are simple:

• Users must submit a protagonist alongside an antagonist (preferably the antagonist to their chosen protagonist, vice versa)
• AP range is around 100-500 tons of TNT
• Amps are allowed to go beyond this but must stay within 8-A
• I'm not strict on hax but I'll be scrutinizing some haxes before I let any through
• Heroes who are melee fighters are generally preferred, this can mean their typical modus operandi or if they don't range spam in-character
• Not necessarily a rule, but I do recommend heroes with robust resistances
• Only two characters per verse allowed

1. Wolf
2. Create-A-Bot
3. Optimus Prime

I assume you did this because Warhammer Fantasy got buffed to 8-A? Let me guess, you're gonna nominate either Sigmar, Kruber, or Grimgor

Anyway that means you won't nominate a Sekiro character so obviously, here's Wolf. And to accompany him, here's Genichiro

 

[Naito-desu]

Yeah basically, but anything Grimgor and above probably should be off the table honestly, skillstomp is too much

 

[Adem_Warlock69]

MGRR Raiden and MGS4 Vamp (Both 156.78 Tons)

 

[Genericstickman]

Darth Vader and Optimus Prime (Michael Bay)

 

[Kisaragi_Megumi]

Ah man, its limited to main protag/antag
I wanted to submit Kokushibo and Sanemi here lel

 

[DivineAura44]

Would have put Super Monkey in his Dark Knight Key but who's gonna be his enemy? A balloon?

 

[DivineAura44]

Would Alex Mercer count as a villain? If so, James Heller and Alex Mercer.

 

[Naito-desu]

Ah man, its limited to main protag/antag

I didn't really specify, it does seem to be the first approach of other people though

 

[Naito-desu]

Would Alex Mercer count as a villain? If so, James Heller and Alex Mercer.

I guess in this tourney important characters on the "good side" would be protagonists and important characters on the "bad side" would be Antagonists so are they?

 

[DivineAura44]

I see James Heller as the main protagonist seeing as he was of Prototype 2. Alex was the main protag of Prototype 1 and in most peoples eyes, the main antag of 2 however the wiki doesn't actually list him as a villain.

 

[Nierre]

i'd love to use hxh characters but nen crush is always an issue

 

[XSOULOFCINDERX]

Starscream (2007 DS Game) as the Antagonist and Create-A-Bot (Decepticon) as the Protagonist.

 

[Naito-desu]

I don't watch much hxh so what's nen crush

 

[XSOULOFCINDERX]

Wait, does the Protagonist have to be a Hero or can they be a Villain who's Main Antagonist is also a Villain?

 

[Nierre]

I don't watch much hxh so what's nen crush

If you know Bleach, it works similarly to Reiatsu/Soul Crush

 

[Naito-desu]

Well honestly I'm not really strict against it hence why I'm suggesting robust resistances for better fights but the lineup right now might be looking a little weak so we'll see.

Also:

As long as it's a Protagonist and an Antagonist, not hero and villain. Which I guess is a matter of perspective, so let's just say Protagonist is the character the story is following, and important characters who are affiliated with him count for the tourney, and then the Antagonist and important characters associated with them count for the tourney as well.

In that case,

Starscream (2007 DS Game) as the Antagonist and Create-A-Bot (Decepticon) as the Protagonist.

 

[Psychomaster35]

Queen for Antagonists

Thrash Machine (Laser Head) for Protagonists

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

Loki For Antagonists

 

[Naito-desu]

I wanted to submit Kokushibo and Sanemi here lel

I was thinking about submitting a KNY character if you're not so can I get confirmation here?

 

[Kisaragi_Megumi]

I was thinking about submitting a KNY character if you're not so can I get confirmation here?

Well then sure, let Sanemi and Kokushibo join in

 

[Noneless21]

Hmmm, not sure if i wanna do this since it'll probably bite me back pretty hard buuuuut add Post-schnee Shizuku Yaegashi for protag side please

 

[Noneless21]

Actually please don't add it because she'll probably skill stomp the tourneys...

 

[Shadyboi0]

Protag and Antag
If i can choose Keys than TLK megs and MK XLV Iron Man

 

[Baken384]

MGRR Raiden and MGS4 Vamp (Both 156.78 Tons)

lmao this tournament is a wrap

 

[Shadyboi0]

lmao this tournament is a wrap

Get your 12mg of Copium, I already bought mine.

 

[Naito-desu]

Is it the Speed Amps that's bad, also there's already three transformers here, so I'm not sure about adding another. And isn't Iron Man's shtick basically flying and range spamming?

 

[Baken384]

blade mode + slashy slash = GG

 

[Shadyboi0]

so no iron man?

 

[Naito-desu]

Unfortunately, no

 

[Naito-desu]

Added some new rules for verses, also removed MGR characters and added Megatron since DS game and Michael Bay are technically different installments

 

[Naito-desu]

Hmmm, not sure if i wanna do this since it'll probably bite me back pretty hard buuuuut add Post-schnee Shizuku Yaegashi for protag side please

That might be the least problematic thing given she has Spatial Manip or whatever, how skilled is she? Some of the other folks here have Precog stuff too if that's what is worrying

 

[Noneless21]

Let's just say that this thread explain it all

 

[Noneless21]

Also, the dude that's practically the most knowledgable member of arifureta verse is not in the best condition for debating so i decided to not include her in

 

[Adem_Warlock69]

also removed MGR characters and added Megatron since DS game and Michael Bay are technically different installments

Vamp doesn't really have the Dura Neg or the Speed Amp, so I dunno why he got removed
MGS4 Raiden doesn't have the Speed amp so can he be used instead?

 

[Naito-desu]

Alright I added them back in, but also we're at an excess of villains here, can those who only submitted villains please submit a hero?

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

Sonic (IDW)?

 

[Naito-desu]

Alright, given we have an excess of villains, I'll probably have to do a round to eliminate one of them first

 

[Shadyboi0]

Sonic (IDW)?

I tried to, realized he is 800+ tons and deleted my post
