After a long sixty-three days of matches between all sorts of characters from the fantasy worlds of books, comics, video games, manga, television shows, movies, and even web comics, the strongest hero of them all has finally been decided: -------------- (1) Dark Schneider The combination of a nearly impenetrable defense and an astonishingly devastating array of offensive magic allowed Dark Schneider to overcome even the most formidable of opponents throughout this tournament. Though his competition included superheroes, dark sorcerers, weavers of reality, cosmic beings, and even the Queen of Hell herself, none could penetrate Dark Schneider's protective shielding and destroy his soul before they were consumed by the Adam of Darkness's overwhelming power. -------------- Well, it seems that this lengthy contest has finally come to a close. Very importantly, I'd like to give a huge thanks to all the voters and contributors throughout the last couple of months who helped make this series of topics entertaining and worthwhile for everyone. In retrospect, there were many mishaps and mistakes on my part throughout this tournament, but I hope this didn't detract much from the experience. As for any future follow-up contests, unfortunately I must announce that I don't currently plan to host a Most Powerful Villians series or the like. Besides the good amount of time that would need to be invested if I were to be involved, I am also skeptical of the success of such a tournament. Originally when I chose to limit this now-completed tournament to heroes, it was to specifically exclude characters with omnipotent or near-omnipotent abilities, as well as relatively unknown characters or characters with obscure abilities. Whereas heroes have generally well-defined powers that fail to reach omnipotence, I believe this doesn't hold true for many villians. In addition, villians are much less popular than their hero counterparts (for example, many people may have heard of Kim Possible, but few have heard of her evil counterpart Shego). But of course I wouldn't want my skepticism to prevent everyone else from making any follow-ups based on this tournament's ideas. If anyone wishes to host such a contest, I wish them success and would recommend ironing out the rules and such in this topic, as there were certainly a few errors and oversights in mine. I also feel that I must say I was personally very pleased and impressed to see the discussions and thought many people have put into some of the matches, and I hope everyone enjoyed this as much as I did. So, again, a warm thank you to everyone who participated in this series of topics. So, without further ado, the overall results: |

Contest Matches KOS-MOS / Mega Man (20-4): The android's sheer firepower was decidedly far too much for the blue bomber to match. Captain America / Captain Falcon (13-21): The awesome destructive force of Falcon Punch won the battle for the legendary bounty hunter. Wolverine / Squall Leonhart (18-3): Wolverine's incredible regenerative ability had easily overcome any attacks Squall and his gunblade could muster. Link / Edward Elric (20-37): The Hero of Time's reliance on his equipment turned out to be a fatal weakness as Ed transforms Link's items into junk. Samus / Master Chief (33-2): Samus's greatly superior weaponry and armor quickly finished the fight with her Spartan opponent. Luke Skywalker / Zero (33-20): Luke's mastery of the Force was able to give him the edge in his duel against his Reploid combatant. Batman / Alucard (19-29): Batman's inability to exploit any weaknesses of Alucard allowed the half vampire to prevail with his superior strength and ability. Naruto / Kenshiro (13-14): Kenshiro's lightning-fast speed and killing touch allowed him to barely triumph over the power of the Kyubi. Silver Surfer / Green Lantern (28-4): Hal Jordan's willpower wasn't nearly enough to overcome the Silver Surfer's Power Cosmic. Phoenix / Gogeta (61-47): The Saiyan's mastery of the ki and the martial arts turned out to be useless against Phoenix's telekinesis. Dumbledore / Gandalf (17-48): Despite his vast dueling experience, the wizarding headmaster still lost to the White Wizard in a battle of magic. Cloud / Gray Fox (27-4): Gray Fox's exoskeleton hadn't been enough of an advantage to surmount Cloud's agility and materia. Dark Schneider / Captain Planet (23-5): Earth's defender of the environment was helpless against the awe-inspiring power of the Adam of Darkness. Lina Inverse / Magus (13-18): The dark prince's deadly scythe, wide range of spells, and wits were sufficient to barely best the powerful sorceress. Black Mage / Aeris (26-5): Evilwizardington's skill with the knife and his Hadouken were apparently too much for Aeris to handle. Sora / Rand al'Thor (3-24): The wielder of the Keyblade had little chance against his swordmaster opponent l's superior abilities. Superman / Kirby (31-5): The pink puffball's suction power was futile against a hero strong enough to resist black holes. Jack Bauer / Solid Snake (16-41): The super soldier's larger and more advanced inventory of combat equipment gave him the victory over the top American operative. Thor / Auron (37-2): Regrettably, the guardian of Spira was severely undermatched in his fight against the god of thunder. Yoda / Sentry (11-30): Sentry's extraordinarily superhuman abilities were sufficient to overwhelm the Jedi Master. Spider-Man / The Terminator (33-7): The T-850 just wasn't designed to handle foes as strong and agile as his costumed foe. Hulk / Popeye (31-29): In a battle of muscles, the spinach-powered sailor fell just short of defeating the Incredible Hulk. Haruhi Suzumiya / Lain Iwakura (24-19): The eccentric SOS Brigade member manages to defeat an omnipotent entity without even knowing how it happened. Professor X / Harry Potter (50-1): The famous young wizard's Occulmency lessons were useless against a psychic of Xavier's power. Neo / Vegeta (9-41): The savior of the human race had neither the speed nor power to be a match against the Saiyan warrior. |

Mario / Squirrel Girl (28-34): The beloved Italian plumber was overwhelmed by Squirrel Girl's unique squirrel abilities. Dante / Sonic (30-23): The half-demon hero was able to weather his speed disadvantage and subdue the blue blur. Crono / Morrigan (6-32): The heiress of Hell was in an entirely different league from her spiky-haired opponent. Goku / Kim Possible (67-4): Kim Possible falls far short of achieving her "I can do anything" motto when faced with the impossible. Vincent Valentine / Simon Belmont (33-24): The talented gunslinger brought down the legendary vampire slayer with his range and gravity-defying agility. Ichigo Kurasaki / Kurama (4-24): The former renowned demon bandit outmaneuvered and overpowered one of the strongest Soul Reapers without much trouble. Mewtwo / Ness (51-9): In a clash between psychics, the legendary Pokemon emerged victorious over his gifted young opponent. KOS-MOS / Captain Falcon (46-11): The famed bounty hunter fell quickly to the android's devastating firepower. Wolverine / Edward Elric (25-39): The Fullmetal Alchemist's impressive intellect and versatile abilities allowed him to prevail over the melee-specialized Wolverine. Samus / Luke Skywalker (4-62): The feared Chozo champion's beam and missile weapons were in vain against a master of the Force. Alucard / Kenshiro (16-4): The supreme martial arts master was fatally unprepared for Alucard's vampiric magics and physique. Silver Surfer / Phoenix (17-14): The influence of the Power Cosmic dominated that of the Phoenix Force in the struggle between the former Herald and the Omega-level mutant. Gandalf / Cloud (43-40): In the end, the powers of a demi-god were too much for the famous sword-wielding hero to overcome. Dark Schneider / Magus (39-7): Even the heir to the magical kingdom of Zeal was completely outclassed by the Adam of Darkness and his sorceries. Black Mage / Rand al'Thor (6-29): The Dragon Reborn managed to put an end to the egotistical Light Warrior with his greater control over reality and the elements. Superman / Solid Snake (45-13): Despite the genetically engineered super-soldier's incredible physique, skills, and experience, as a mere human Snake stood little chance against the Kryptonian. Thor / Sentry (15-22): The ancient god of thunder's centuries of battle experience fell short of defeating the newest member of his former superhero team. Spider-Man / Hulk (6-42): The famous spider-themed superhero had no way of surpassing the Hulk's extreme durability. |

Haruhi Suzumiya / Professor X (39-41): In a match that seemingly could have gone either way, Xavier's psychic mind was able to restrain the SOS-Brigade leader's vast power over reality. Vegeta / Squirrel Girl (58-37): The scourge of Marvel supervillians failed in her attempt to add Vegeta to her repertoire of victories. Dante / Morrigan (7-40): Morrigan proved herself to be the stronger demon by far through battle with the half-devil son of Sparda. Goku / Vincent Valentine (71-4): The Saiyan's almost unparalleled speed and fighting talent was far too great for Vincent to match. Kurama / Mewtwo (11-49): The notorious ingenuity and wisdom of the ancient former Fox Demon couldn't create a solution for Mewtwo's dominating telekinesis in time. KOS-MOS / Edward Elric (38-4): Due to KOS-MOS's variety of powerful ranged attacks, the Fullmetal Alchemist was unable to move close enough to the android to perform a lethal transmutation. Luke Skywalker / Alucard (47-8): The son of Dracula fell to a mere human when confronted with the binding power of the Force. Silver Surfer / Gandalf (56-7): The demi-god's formidable magics were decidedly no match against a cosmic being of Silver Surfer's level. Dark Schneider / Rand al'Thor (43-7): The legendary swordmaster and his fierce powers over the threads of reality suffered defeat in the face of Dark Schneider's awe-inspiring abilities. Superman / Sentry (29-23): After an epic battle of blinding speed and displays of immeasurable strength between the two solar-powered superheroes, the Man of Steel barely managed to emerge victorious. Hulk / Professor X (31-26): The paraplegic genius couldn't succeed in bypassing Hulk's mental defenses quickly enough to protect himself. Vegeta / Morrigan (39-52): Despite Vegeta's superior determination, he was simply too outclassed in power by the mighty Darkstalker to secure a victory. Goku / Mewtwo (66-72): The powerful Saiyan's weakness to telepathic assaults allowed his psychic opponent to take control of the fight. KOS-MOS / Luke Skywalker (34-69): Luke's control of the Force's telekinetic properties turned out to be enough to fend off KOS-MOS's devastating weaponry and destroy her internal systems. Silver Surfer / Dark Schneider (45-53): Finding and destroying Dark Schneider's eternal atom while being barraged by lethal spells proved to be too difficult a task for even the strongest of Galactus's heralds. Superman / Hulk (68-20): The super-intelligent Kryptonian was able to deduce a method of defeating the Hulk before he became outmatched in strength. Morrigan / Mewtwo (49-41): The Makai demon's overwhelming infernal energies were too great for the arguably most powerful of all Pokemon to contain. Luke Skywalker / Dark Schneider (31-79): The ancient sorcerer's nearly unmatched speed allowed him to claim victory over the greatest Jedi warrior. Superman / Morrigan (48-57): Superman's vulnerability to magical attacks turned out to be too severe a disadvantage against the S-Class Darkstalker. Dark Schneider / Morrigan (72-63): Even the soul-draining powers of the most formidable succubus in existence were ineffectual against the Adam of Darkness, leading to Dark Schneider's victory over the Queen of Hell herself. |

Luffy Optimus Prime Urza Planeswalker The Flash Ditto Laharl Bridget Dr. Strange The Spectre Michael Demiurgos Belldandy Tenchi Misaki Lenneth Valkyrie Out of those, I think the last six may have stood a chance or had an advantage against Dark Schneider. --- |

Lain/Haruhi This is a toss up in the end. Haruhi's subconcious won't exactly let her die or anything, and technically Lain reset the universe and is it. But the universe revolves around Haruhi as she reset the universe. So it becomes a very confusing paradox that goes down to concious reality altering powers vs. subconcious reality altering powers. Haruh/X Indeed, the mismatch. Lina/Magus (Seriously guys WHAT THE HELL?) She almost dies to an arrow. That's why. Lina is a much more powerful mage, yes, however she almost died to an arrow. She's got **** in the way of defense, and Magus is great at melee. Mario/Squirrel Girl (Her powers don't seem to apply against a pansy such as Mario >_>) Psh, they applied to Deadpool and he ain't a cosmic threat... at least normal DP ain't. Phoenix/Silver Surfer (From what I know) In Annihalation Surfer got a boost that puts him questionably to Galactus's level. He became Galactus's herald once again and the big man gave him a massive powerup. "There's two of them.

Psh, they applied to Deadpool and he ain't a cosmic threat... at least normal DP ain't. Squirrel girl's power seems to be done according to this equation= @/#=V @ Being the person's power, # Would be some sort of random constant. Clearly Mario's @ is some sort of low figure.

But, Galactus' level? Phoenix's level? Read it again, even before the boost he said that. After the boost he was recreating his board like nothing, owned a guy who was roughly his equal, and Galactus gave him back his balls. And do remember that the two people Galactus is going to face are somewhere on par of him, and Surfer's the only person he trusts enough that's strong enough. Also remember that Surfer's main enemy in the series was on par to him... before the boost. Post-boost, he didn't even break a sweat. At the least, Surfer should be able to take on a starved Galactus as it stands. --- Head Lawyer for Sir Chris' Police Veggie Tales: The one thing that religion has done that grows no hate.

It actually seems more like he's done with the jobbing. He still lost to Aegis and the dude.

Magus is Terrible in melee. Storyline should put him pretty high up there at melee. And don't forget that he can become the strongest at melee when 2 of your allies are dead if you're looking for gameplay. Terrible at melee would be Lucca and Marle. Magus? Storyline should put him at a high enough level. Higher than say, a flying arrow. He's not Robo, Crono, Ayla, or Frog. But he's right after there. Considering that Frog's the best swordsman of his time? Yeah. --- Head Lawyer for Sir Chris' Police Veggie Tales: The one thing that religion has done that grows no hate. That, and wine. |

Boy did VG characters bomb in this contest. MC, Potter and Squall the weakest 3. Snake overpeformed through. --- Time to come out big boy... |

I'll be downloading Endsong and Warsong one of these days... but Pheonix has always struck me as one of the more overrated on power Marvel characters. PheonixForce, quite amazing. What Jean can do with it... eh. Makes you wonder how she loses. I think Surfer won that match due to his speed, microversing ways, and... matter manipulation. Or something. Didn't save that one. Still have to read the first two issues of Annihalation, but Surfer should be at least past starved Galactus. Not fully powered or close to that yet, but somewhere by moderately powered. Just on the basis of him being picked, boosted, and supposed to fight against the 2 other entities. --- Head Lawyer for Sir Chris' Police Veggie Tales: The one thing that religion has done that grows no hate.

Makes you wonder how she loses. The Shi'Ar have time to plan! It's like a galactic empire of Batmans. --- "There is no such thing as a plea of innocence in my court. A plea of innocence is guilty of wasting my time. Guilty." |

Squirrel Girl at #11 in the x-stats FTW. Also, Vegeta jobbing to Goku again is also hilarious...not to mention that they're both stronger than themselves combined (Gogeta). Very awesome tournament. I read a good amount of topics, but I didn't vote much, due to my horrible debatting skills. <_< |

She almost dies to an arrow. That's why. Lina is a much more powerful mage, yes, however she almost died to an arrow. She's got **** in the way of defense, and Magus is great at melee. Actually, it isn't so much that Magus is decent at melee, since Lina can levitation/raywing and kite most melee opponents. It's the fact Magus can fly. I still hold that saying "Freeze Arrow" before Magus can get within weapon range is possible, though, and should've basically given Lina the match. --- "It isn't hotter than Hot Nymphomaniacal Lesbian Mind-Controlling Dominatrix Fairy Doctors.

Lain or Haruhi should have won this, but it was definitely an amusing tournament. Thank you tons A12340001, for hosting this tourney and for all the work you put into it. --- "If I put a wheel on your mother, would she be a trolley?" - Senorrandom13 |
