If you don't mind me asking, what chance does my team have?

Heh. Sorry, man, but this is a (for fun) competition. Can't really help you there.  

All I'm going to say is to try to pick the most diverse profiles you can.

Fair enough but that's what I did in my defense.

I don't mind analyzing your team. 😆

Space Godzilla won the majority of his fights last time. I don't think he will do to bad.

The Doctor will always do well, but I'm not sure how 'evil' she is in this incarnation. We will see how that plays out.

Puffy AmiYumi is a awesome choice. I like their music.

And Freddy will do well if he gets some lucky draws. His powers are a little all over the place.

Starkiller is a good choice. Almost picked him myself.

And I see you got my last Kaiju, Biollante. Strong contender for sure.

Here's what I got:

Mine here: https://www.electricferret.com/cbub/cbubcats/showfantasyteam?ftid=198

I can see some my lot should win, more that they'll probably lose, but for most I will say it'll be an interesting matchup!

I did not Deny the people picking Wrestlers as their Entertainers, but I'm just pointing out that none of the Entertainer challenges have anything to do with wrestling.  I'm not sure why people are choosing wrestlers if they've seen the Entertainer challenges from Season 5.

People are still picking specialists ... * shakes head * 

That's a fairly big reason a lot of folks fall behind in these Drafts (and it's part of what cost me last time around). 

Well, Asuka is a talented wrestler...who in addition to that knows how to work a crowd with great talking skills, has a sizable following as YouTuber/internet celebrity/gamer/web show chef, written for several different publications, has a background in graphic designing as well as a sports background in badminton and figure skating, has experience with business management with a couple she personally owns  and fluently speaks Japanese, English, French, German, Spanish, Italian and Dutch. I may have forgotten some of the challenges specifically, but I think that versatility would suit her well?

So I don't really get the shaking of the head there.

That's a good point. She seems like an MVP.

No no, he's managing the Hurt Business right now.

In any case, if anyone else wants to analyze my team, here they are.

I might join later, but would Godzilla or the Death Star work in SLOT 1?

Please look through the Vs. Battle Wiki Tier 5. There are over 2000 potential characters, alphabetized.

No Rush - the Draft will be open a week at least.

I think Venom is asking because the Death Star - 1 and 2 - are listed there, but seem a little out of place. Does a fully functional battle station manned by many stormtroopers count as a character for this slot?

Yeah, all good.  Tier 5 is a broad category.

I will look forward to the Magneto vs. Death Star thread.

[Bergy_Berg]

Silver Surfer got the OK for the Anchor slot?

[patrickthekid]

Was my choice reviewed?

He is tier 5 according to the wiki exception At Peak. I believe it says that Peak was a very specific circumstance where Galactus powered him up to fight Thanos

Yeah, I was speaking more in general, at least from what I initially saw of the teams at the time.

The VS wiki has him split between pre and post annihilation, with each side having the same 5-A and 4-B at peak designation. It looks like only post annihilation Surfer falls under the specific Galactus event you're referencing.

[DSkillz]

I suppose Amalgam characters are still out of the question, huh?

well, the character was also captured by a really crappy Dr. Doom in the second Fantastic Four movie.

Does it seem like it is too difficult to view the character at his Generic tier 5 level?

Depends. Are they Tier 5? Lol

If they put Amalgam characters in the Tier 5 category then feel free.

Silver Surfer also has wins in the database over Thor, Captain Marvel (Shazam), Green Lantern, Superman, and Gladiator. Admittidly I have not gone back and reviewed every match.

But I do think that, just like Thor, we'll end up with higher than tier 5 feats being used.
