    I don't hold any sort of bias like you seem to be implying. I don't WANT any team to lose. I thought it would be a fun fight.

    If you've been paying attention to the responses, there is totally some wiggle room for how powerful you might believe Plastic Man was by the end of his League run. He is considerably more potent then other heroes with his power set.

    I resent the implication of "rigging" my threads.

    I believe in you Arby. I'll even buy you a Grand Slam, just to change things up.

    I don't think this is rigged at all: it was an attempt to mix and match two sides - numbers and multiple abilities versus pure ANGRY RAAAAAAGE. I don't think that team DC really has much of a shot, as presented above, Hulk has a pretty simple option that team DC just can't do a damn thing about, but I don't see anything that makes this intentional.

    At the end of the day, Arby is a pretty prolific poster proposing a plurality of proper posts for us. Some aren't going to work out. It's not bias though.

    I don't think DQ is a problem if the rest of the combatants are still there. Steel would be DQ'd and unable to continue but his teammates are still in the Arena.

    ^^^

    Agreed. Arby's proposed battles are pretty thought provoking. Like this one. I think Plas' combination of strength and versatility is the X factor.

    I don't think that Steel auto DQ is a problem for the DC team, I just don't think it's a viable strategy, because Steel can't spacetoss, so he'd have to keep hitting Hulk after he was DQ'd, and THAT's not allowed. If not, Hulk can just walk back. Ring out has always worked that way: if the combattant can come back under their own power, they don't lose.

    Can't Plas suffocate Hulk by sticking to his head? If Hulk tries to grab him he just shift his body to keep himself implanted on Hulk's face?!

    I guess it could be an eternal stalemate as Eel can't be killed and is immortal. Does Hulk age? This could be a trial of attrition.

    EDIT: Whoops, meant to edit my own post.

    Almost word for word you predicted this turn of events.

    Can it be? Was that one barely literate troll from several board crashes ago right? Do I have mafia mind control powers?
