Rumblers League Week 1: Stigmazilla v Cleric of Hell's Brigade - Who won?

[KJS]

This is the voting thread for the match between Stigmazilla and Cleric of Hell's Brigade.

The match can be found here. Please ensure you have read both of the strategies and all of the discussion before voting.

Rules
- Anyone voting must give a valid reason for their vote (a valid reason should be more than just a few words).
- Participants in the match CAN vote for their own team (or their opponents, if they so wish!), but they shouldn't give reasons. There should be no more attempting to sway other voters in this thread.
- The vote results are public, so we can see who voted.
- The poll will be up for 2 full days.

Please note: Following the final poll results, a store thread will go up whereby credits won for winning/drawing/participating can be spent. The store will be open each week for 24 hours following poll results.

Match discussion threads will, from this point on, be posted on Tuesdays and discussion will be for 5 days (this is because I've come to realise we need more breaks, rather than having something related to the league ongoing at all times - matches, polls, credit-spending periods and strategy writing).

N.B. The Rumblers League has always been given special dispensation for polls, in case anybody was wondering.

I'm leaning Stigma.

Zoom is faster than Jesse Quick, and it shouldn't be difficult for him to survive her attacks with his Thing infection. Plus he's targeting her first, which makes the chances of her nailing him with the Shrink attack even lower.

Based on the speed feats demonstrated by the Super Ex-Girl Friend characters, there is very little chance of Paul reaching Xavier in time to stop him from freezing Superman. Plus sense he's trying for a Blitz, that makes him an immediate target for Zoom. Zoom's fast enough to Blitz Paul, and with the Thing infection, Paul's other Meteorite enhancements will be bypassed.

Now, one could argue that Superman might be too fast for Xavier. But Superman isn't targeting Xavier, he's targeting the Big Boys, which leaves him vulnerable.

All in All, I think Stigma has the best shot

Voted Zilla as I think Superman underestimates Surter and the Kaijus, and Xavier in the cloaked Puddle Jumper do some good moves that are hard to counter here.
