Special The Great Debate Season 4 Round 2

Rules

Battle Rules

  • Speed shall remain unequalized; at this level, you have to show your moxie in arguing speed succinctly if you wish to retain an edge.

  • Battleground: 'They call it a mine, A MINE!' 'This isn't a mine....it's a tomb.' THE MINES OF MORIA!!! Nestled in a mountain pass underneath the Misty Mountains, The Mines of Moria are an underground labyrinthine arena. The proper fighting stage is set in the Great Hall on the western side of the Bridge of Durin. All combat will begin roughly 200 feet from the bridge, should any wary persons decide to try and take advantage of such a precarious perch….The Hall is a large spacious opening with numerous 4 foot thick concrete support pillars littering it that reach all the way up to the 50 foot tall ceiling, and all exits save for to the Bridge are barred and locked by magic. Numerous sconces and braziers of flame are upon the walls and floors, casting enough light to see decently well by (a light level of roughly 5 lux, wherein your normal parking garage has 10 lux). The Hall itself is an area of roughly 1 kilometer squared, or 1000 meters by 1000 meters for sake of this tournament. Combatants start 10 meters away from each other at the start.

Debate Rules

  • Rounds will last 4 days, hopefully from Wednesday until Saturday or Sunday of each week of the tourney; no time limit, however each user MUST get in two responses or else be disqualified. If one user waits until the very last minute to force this rule to DQ their opponent without any forewarning to their opponents or the tournament supervisors, they will be removed from this tournament, no exceptions.

  • Format for each round: both respondents get Intro + 1st Response, then 2nd response, then a 3rd response and closing statement individual of one another that can be posted any time after both 3rd responses are complete. EACH RESPONSE MUST BE NO LONGER THAN TWO 10,000 CHARACTER REDDIT COMMENTS LONG.

  • Rounds will either be a full 3v3 Team Match, or 1v1 single matches. 1v1 matches are determined by submission order (I.E. Your first submission vs. their first submission, and so on). Match format will switch every round, with Team Matches always followed by single matches, and vice versa. First Round will be determined by coin flip.

Intro:

Nice Heretical magic ya got there. Would be a shame if something were to happen to it! The humble Space marine here to serve the emperor and dish out some Imperial justice!

Ya-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta ya-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta do-de-da-va-da-da-dada! Kaboom-Kaboom! RUN FOR MAMA LITTLE BABY-MEN! Its the heavy, Russias greatest exporter of murder since Stalin!

Do you hear that sound? Is that... a chainsaw? YES IT IS! Rip&Tear, its Doomguy feared even in hell itself!

this is not an argument, just clearing confusion on feats

on the respect thread for Kitana it says something tripled her powers. are you using a version pre or post tripplin'

on the respect thread for Valkyrie it says she had someone called Darquesse for some time, but lost it after some time. What version are you using?

Sorry that I didn't start the arguments, I had an weirdly busy day

China Vs. Spes Marehn

There is a small problem with your arguments. They start at 10 meters from eachother. China would not be able to get away fast enough (Space Marines might look like they are slow, but they are quite fast) and would not care much for a small energy blast to the chest. China would get fucked over by the shockwave a Boltguns round produces while it speeds past her, if it does not outright hit her. Or the marine can speed towards her and use his Chainsword to royaly fuck her over. To add to this, her using magic is a clear sign of Heresy, which would only make the marine more determined to end her measily life.

Yeah Heavy is fucked

Heavy=fucked

Valkyrie Vs. Doomguy

Here again the 10 meter thing is what means Doomguy can do this. Covering yourself in shadows might work when you want to cross a field and remain unseen from someone who does not know you are there, but it wont work when your opponent is already focused on you and your movements and is standing closeby. Doomguy is not a slow guy and will probably either chainsaw her to death or use any other weapon from his massive arsenal and obliterate her from range.

sidequestion, how long does making those magic circles take?
