Well you most probably are wondering from where I have actually
got the idea to make these 2 awesome superhero teams fight, so let me explain…The
show “The Deadliest Warrior” is a show I love and it compares stats and fights
heroes and warriors who have never met in a battlefield before and then
predicts what the outcome might have been by simulating a 1000 battles fought
between the 2 warriors.. So I thought to myself, why not try this with the 2
greatest superhero teams –
The DC
Comics
“Justice League”
vs
The Marvel Comics
“The Avengers
I hope to make it a small series of posts because it is
really hard to compare these vast numbers of superheroes in a single go. It will be a series of fights between the heroes who will
face off against each other i.e. a 1v1 matchup... The heroes will be matched such
that they resemble each other in their fighting styles, dressing sense and roles
they play in their respective teams.
There are 4 factors which will come into play… Each
will be a maximum of 100 points. And the total will be the decider as to who
will win. The four factors are -
1) Armor – The effectiveness of the attire which they wear to
fend off/deflect/absorb attacks. It tests their use in providing cover
and how much it actually slows them down.
Skill – Pretty self explanatory . The technique and the power of the weapons that they wield, it may be strength and brute force for some people like the Hulk and weapons for the others.
3) Intellect – The ability to come out of tricky situations
and make use of the surroundings so as to gain an edge over the opponent.
4) Specials – The extra special powers that the character has
which distinguishes them from his opponent. The points will be out of 50 if it is a match between a mortal and a super-hero to keep the match-up fair.
Frankly I am a bit partial to “The Avengers” as their recent
movie totally rocked, but “The Dark Knight” kicked some ass too!!!
I am a bit confused about whom to match up against
whom so if you guys have any suggestions, feel free to post it as a comment.
I have decided the following battles for now -

If you want to use the current JLA, Cybrog vs Vision might be better suited than using Martian Manhunter.
ReplyDeleteMartain Manhunter can face off against the Hulk, than you have two green heroes up against each other. They are closer to power levels also. Manhunter would destroy Vision way too easily.
That is a great idea Ritchie !!!
DeleteI too felt that Martian Manhunter would be too powerful for Vision. I will make the changes soon :)
Love you passion...!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Anjan !! :)
DeleteFor your match ups, you may wish to consider some of those that were used by:
ReplyDeleteDC vs. Marvel Comics (April to May 1996)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_vs._Marvel
or
JLA/Avengers (September 2003 to May 2004)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JLA/Avengers
I would like to see how your computer program determines the outcome for a team battle for this match up.
It is designed for 1v1 but I shall see how it can be modified to fit multiple opponents with a random chance of facing each other 1v1..
DeleteAs for the DC vs Marvel, great suggestion!! There have been some tough matches I have overlooked. Thanks :)
DeleteI'll update the list soon enough.
just for reference, vision has the same abilities as MM, except for the telekinesis, which doesnt matter much when you are up against a machine/android. Secondly vision just needs to create fire and the fight is over...(for anyone who does not know, Martian manhunters' weakness is fire) and incase anyone is ever like well how would he create fire?he has a laser beam on his forehead, belive it or not is just as easy trying to hit him, miss, and still win due to the fire created from whatever he hit
ReplyDeleteMaybe but Vision is shown to be weak more often than not... But as per your wish I will add a MM vs Vision post too and post its results...
