Brackets Requiem: 7-B

[Beast_Zero_Gudako]

When describing what my criteria for too much hax is, ask yourself the question:
Could a haxless character with the same AP reasonably defeat your character?

If the answer is no, then another character might be more appropriate.

Well, Seilah was defeated by the Straus siblings whose AP were inferior to her.

 

[Kredory]

I really want to nominate Shao Kahn and I could explain why he would be fair despite his hax tho

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

@Anonymous

I mean, all of the ohter ones you listed can one-shot rather easily, save for Medusa who doesn't tend to abuse her hax in character.

So maybe Rider, IDK.

 

[Beast_Zero_Gudako]

What about Gildarts Clive then?

 

[WeeklyBattles]

@Beast Disassembly magic says no

 

[Beast_Zero_Gudako]

Which requires contact as I recall.

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

I mean

There should be a reasonable pool of less controversial 7-B MK characters who are used much less.

@Beast

It's supposed to be very light on hax. Including characters like that would likely make a bunch of stomps that would ruin the fun of the bracket.

 

[AnonymousBlank]

Disassembly is actually ranged

 

[Overlord775]

@Dargoo

What is the max level of regen allowed ?

Does having multiversal+ range teleportation qualify as "haxless"

 

[Kredory]

Only Shinnok is 7-B for oneshotting two Low 7-Bs who are near baseline City level

Speaking of which Shao Kahn was supposed to be upgraded to 7-B

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

Potent Mid level regen would make me uncomfortable, High Mid is usually too much unless there is a weak spot or other weakness.

 

[Beast_Zero_Gudako]

@Dargoo Then why Medusa is allowed here when she has eyes-based pertification?

 

[AnonymousBlank]

Because she almost never takes off her blindfold even when she could oneshot or is about to die

 

[Monarch_Laciel]

Because she doesn't spam it probably.

 

[Beast_Zero_Gudako]

Same with Gildarts Crash magic apparently. His main method of hurting his opponent is beat the shit outta them.

 

[Cueio_2020]

CH?

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

>composite human

I really want to say yes and I really want to say no.

 

[ShiroyashaGinSan]

I'll nominate Satou Kazuma.

 

[Kredory]

>composite human
I really want to say yes and I really want to say no.

CH just nukes while sitting in his bunker I guess

But he's a glass cannon so I don't think that's fair

 

[ApiesDeathbyLazors]

Maybe one of the Pleiades Maids?

 

[LordGriffin1000]

What about Emperor Griffo?.

 

[AnonymousBlank]

While I do like the idea, they all kinda get one shot by a good few characters accepted so far except for Solution who is just a pain to kill in general.

 

[Overlord775]

I nominate OOOOOF

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

@Shirou

Satou looks good.

@Griffon

As long as the time shenanigans isn't used in combat and you promise that they won't be revised to Elephant level again.

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

I nominate OOOOOF

How in Sam Hill is that not very haxxed

 

[Overlord775]

I nominate OOOOOF

How in Sam Hill is that not very haxxed

owo

 

[LordGriffin1000]

@Dargoo

He only Time Traveled to get where he needs to go. No Dark Chronicle character uses Time Travel offensively unless he decides to go back to the past and erase their origin point but he doesn't have that knowledge and didn't use it in combat against the main cast even tho it would have saved him.

Sirus is the one who got dropped down to 9-B, Emperor Griffon is the one with the legitimate 7-B feat, so he's not getting downgraded.

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

I'll add em then.

 

[Kirby71]

Poyo!

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

I feel like the EE, Reality Warping, BFR, and outright Dura Negation discount Kirbs, sorry.

 

[Kazuma_kuwabara]

Yamcha

And he will lose in the quarter finals

 

[Kirby71]

Actually, this kirby version needs to eat to get powers, so this kirby isnt discounted, as he cant spam those freely, he is not canon game kirby.

 

[YungManzi]

I nominate Superbi Squalo.

 

[Ricsi-viragosi]

Hmmm, I want to say Arc Company.

One way to make him less broken would be to assume he doesn't have the president's abilities, which makes him that much less hax, but even if he did his nature means that he'd possibly grant victory to the enemy as long as they put up a good fight (and request it. He doesn't grant wishes unless people explicitly request em).

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

@Kazuma

Yamcha looks good.

@Yung

Really iffy on Squalo

@Ricsi

I'm just going to say outright no on that.

 

[Ricsi-viragosi]

I'm just going to say outright no on that.

Why? He is, by his nature, litirally unable to kill an enemy outright, and if they defeat a horde of High 8-C monsters he lets them win.

 

[John985]

Arc company have power null, that's too much already.

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

I'd rather not have the winner of the fight be determined by one of the fighters themselves.

 

[Ricsi-viragosi]

Arc company have power null, that's too much already.

That worked on 8-A characters at best, and left High 7-Cs unafected.
