Joey Maggs? More like Joe BADDS! He ain't ready brother, that cruiserweight can cruiserWAIT, Jack.

Check again, I uploaded to my Photobucket.

OLLIE is stacked in 2016 - This was not even 5 months in. North Star Jr. is having a legendary run with the México title. http://i1090.photobucket.com/albums/i372/AKImeru/extraordinario%20vs%20North%20star_zpshkgicqu0.png

This thing is so whacky it loops together and it becomes the most serious thing ever.

If you could post us a teaser, a demo or even some screenshots it would be nice if it isn't a hassle.

Do you have enough material for Bishops future?

He's not even a threat, one on one, against Thanos or any other heavy hitter. Just from an AI perspective, "iconic" feels totally off. <strong>He won't even get involved in moderate level threats that generally take up most of his solo series, and gets pummeled every time he tries to take on Thanos or Galactus or whoever.</strong></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Now that's the best argument I've seen here so far. The AI won't pair him up with his regular cast of villains, yet he do shows up in world ending threats.</p><p> </p><p> I think for Cap, this means he is the middle of the road popularity wise. What do you think?</p>

Thanos stats would be so over Cap's that I really don't think he could beat Thanos. Thanos powers would also dish out way more damage than any Cap damage could ever do, while having more health than Cap and more energy. Would Cap be utterly useless in that fight? Nope. He probably be even be able to hit a punch or two. Would he brutally lose it despite being in the same popularity level? Yes. Just like a Cap vs. Thanos fight would. The true issue lies within team fights. How about Thanos vs. Thor, Iron Man and Cap? Testing would need to be done by the mod maker to ensure that Thanos has the upper hand. The three can even beat him but it needs to be tough, a "1 out of 10" situation. This is of course, regular Thanos. A gem powered Thanos would have so many resistances and other dirty atributtes under him I doubt the three would be able to do much even at iconic level. I hope you understand the point I'm trying to make here: Cap, Iron Man and Thor SHOULD fight world ending threats because that's what they do in events, most of the time. HOWEVER You need the context, the era that you are trying to reproduce. In 1991, you would need to read the characters and see if they saw much action against world ending threats and how they were portrait in such events. In a modern marvel mod I would have pause putting Cap here; Could go either way, however Thor and Iron Man would be a no brainer, mostly because they handled some heavy stuff in several events in this past decade. Iron Man stats wouldn't be too high though. For instance, Iron Man fought the Void, even hit the Void, but got pretty much defeated and it was up to Thor with some power up help from Loki to end the fight. I think the other point I'm trying to make here is: Popularity isn't -just- power levels. Atributtes and Powers are really important. Popularity should help you pair certain heroes to certain villains. The counter argument to this is often "Well what about their villains?" Most Cap villains would have better atributes and powers than him (MODOK comes to mind) but have less popularity, giving he a big chance to beat them but still be in danger of being defeated. Just my two cents. This is how I make mods, I try to think as popularity as "match ups". I've yet to make anyone Iconic in my Cosmic Marvel mod and in my secret mod only one character is Iconic (Dracula).

<p>I would have to say that Cap, Iron Man and Thor should all be Iconic.</p><p> </p><p> Why? Well they are the guys facing the world ending threats, that's why. And with the exception of Thor their powers wouldn't be able to do much, so they need all the help they can to face the Void or Snake Lord dude from Fear Itself.</p><p> </p><p> Now for other heroes being Iconic in the marvel universe...I wouldn't put anyone else in there. They are called "The Big Three" for a reason after all, they should be special.</p>

Me and Kcoll are using this guideline here: STATS GUIDELINES Average human = 250. 2* human = 450 Peak human (Black Panther, Captain America) = 600 50 tonner (Ms. Marvel) = 750 100 tonner (Wonder Man, Collusus) = 800 100+ tonner (Hulk, Thor, Sentry etc) 850 Thanos = 900 Celestials, Skyfathers = 950

So you joined the Hive-mind eh? Don't forget to post your troubles and ideas on the Board Effort thread! We are all trying to work together to get several Marvel mods made.

Darkhawk wasn't really that bad and Superpro is just silly But he will have a handful on the X-men alone that's for sure.

If you need any help, I can work on the Cosmic Marvel going on at the time, since it's the Infinity Gauntlet event a personal favorite. And since I'm working on a modern cosmic marvel mod, all I would have to do was port the characters, tweak pictures, stats and dialogue.
