Disease Bracket

[Yobo_Blue]

Yeah yeah, I know, making a bracket that desnt involve tier is heresy and whatnot, but eh.

Rules:

• Each character must be some form of disease or infection. For example, The Thing (John Carpenter), Bacteria (Plague Inc.), SCP-008, and Evilswarm would be applicable, while disease spreaders like Typhus the Traveller are not (zombies kind of toe the line, so they're fine)

• No stupid hax, obviously

• Speed is equal by default

• Two characters per verse

• Victory can also be achieved by total infection of humanity before the opponent, and both characters will start in a single applicable host in a inhabited Central Park (they share a host if possible).

• 16 Entries maximum, though if this gets popular enough 32 can be done

Entries:

1. Kharaa Bacterium

2. Cancer (Cells at Work!)

3. Neurax Worm

4. Nano-Virus (Plague Inc.)

5. The Colour Out of Space

6. SCP-008

7. Candidatus Carsonella ruddii

8. The Thing (John Carpenter)

9. Thrax

10. SCP-217

11. Zombie (George A. Romero)

12. Evilswarm

13.

14.

15.

16.


Someone else will have to do the challonge bracket tho

Kharaa Bacterium

 

[TacticalNuke002]

Oshiete, Oshiete yo kono shikumi wo

Cancer (Cells at Work!)

 

[Yobo_Blue]

Added

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

Guessing I can't bullshit my way through this one?

I'm just gonna pull Neurax Worm and Nano Virus the because Plague Inc. is like THE disease verse.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

@Saikou Seeing as Evilswarm is apparently allowed, 3002 probably can be

 

[Yobo_Blue]

Isn't 3002 really outdated tho?

 

[Yobo_Blue]

It depends on if you consider large-scale mind manipulation a BS ability in a bracket where very few things have minds.


i was more using Evilswarm as a disease example, but if no one else has a issue with it or 3002 I dont either.

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

Unless 3002 has some hidden 1-B BS, I don't think it's actually oudated? It's still prettty damn OP for a disease even if it can't directly affect bacteria but still putting it there.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

3002 is not 1-B i assure you

3002 vs the Evilswarm would actually make for an interesting match

 

[Yobo_Blue]

Well, I'll wait for mroe input, but they'll probably be allowed.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

I should make a page for the Rakghoul Plague from Star Wars...

 

[Yobo_Blue]

BTW, should beings who are just puppets for a disease like Alex Mercer and most zombies be allowed?

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

I guess, but it would be more just the disease than the zombies themselves. Alex seems like a big no to me. Town busters shouldn't meddle with "normal" diseases.

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

The Red Death and The Colour Out of Space are the only ones that come to mind.

 

[Yobo_Blue]

Not sure the Red Death qualifies

 

[Yobo_Blue]

The Colour Out of Space may be a bit haxed, but I'll allow it if no one has objections.

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

"Classification: Disease"

┬»\_(Òâä)_/┬»

 

[Yobo_Blue]

Looks like a person to me.

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

┬»\_(Òâä)_/┬»

 

[WeeklyBattles]

The Cancer from Cells At Work looks like a person too ovo

 

[Yobo_Blue]

I mean, in my experience diseases generally can't walk.

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

Then don't add him.

 

[Yobo_Blue]

ƒæì

 

[SomebodyData]

Phazo

I'm joking pls no kill me.

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

Candidatus Carsonella ruddii maybe? I don't know.

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

Also, SCP-008.

 

[Yobo_Blue]

So, no one has issues with mental diseases like Evilswarm and SCP-3002 then, right?

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

Would Thrax count?

 

[TacticalNuke002]

The main problem I see arising afterwards is that some of these participants aren't even able to interact with each other.

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

Victory can also be achieved by total infection of humanity before the opponent.

 

[Yobo_Blue]

That's why I gave the alternative win conditions, though in every bracket there are always some stomps.

 

[Yobo_Blue]

If a match is really wonky it's also possible to make it a battle inside a single human body.

 

[TacticalNuke002]

Cancer is slow in that regard tho.

 

[ApiesDeathbyLazors]

I would infact be very interested, but unfortuantly my first choice would either need a profile rework or a profile for just the diesease itself. I guess you could throw the Thing on there. Not sure how far it'll get. Phyresis really needs it's own profile.

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

Agent Smith because he can turn people into him.

Would that actually count? I don't know.

 

[ApiesDeathbyLazors]

But what if I catch something?

That's not how computer viruses work, mom.

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

SCP-217

 

[Yobo_Blue]

Zombies are fine.
