Arena
  • Via SBA, Central Park.
1920px-Global_Citizen_Festival_Central_Park_New_York_City_from_NYonAir_%2815351915006%29.jpg

  • Starting Distance will be based on SBA.
Match Conditions

  • Speed is equalized by default, but may remain unequalized if one character can mitigate the speed gap (e.g., through passives, resistances, durability advantages, etc.).
  • Matches will use SBA unless specified otherwise.
  • Rules are subject to changes on a per-match basis to make them fairer or more interesting
  • Wincon is via incapacitation or death
  • Combatants are allowed to magically view the other previous matches in-universe, except for the initial tiersetter match (hence, this only becomes effective from the quarter-finals onwards)

Match Rules

  • 3 days are given to both participating users to debate. Regardless of circumstances, I will decree the outcome of the match after the 3 days for the sake of the tourney's pacing. While they may/may not be added to the profiles, further votes can be given so that these matches are eligible to be added to the respective character's profiles
    • An exception can be made should the participating user notify everyone in this thread that they'd be inactive for a bit or some other situation. A further 1 day will be given for such exception
    • If you no longer have any reason or motivation to continue participating in this tournament, notify in the thread to have your combatant removed (and depending on the tourney time, a replacement can be issued)
  • Inconclusive matches are also subject to the above rule, but I will issue a coin flip to decide who advances (unless the votes have a 3-4 vote difference, at which it is completely subject to the first rule instead)

Am I reading it right that Tien is like 30x stronger than Superman?
 
I will see how Arkan or other supes guy respond, and change this match to the second one if it's a stomp
 
Also, I'm pretty sure Ten has the skill advantage and similar levels of accelerated development. Also the multi-form, Four-Witches technique, and Taioken are all variables.
 
Yikes to that AP advatage and Skill advantage. Granted, that LS advantage is overwhelming so a yeet is possible, along with Tien having no heat resistance, so heat vision is also possible. Deflection? He will get immediately torched if he tries that.
All depends on what superman wants to do here. Since the starting distance is going to be ranged, he's likely going to try to get close and laser. Hell, even in neutral, he'll most likely use it rather than trying to get close to him. Granted, I don't see supes not trying to get close anyway.

I doubt it'll be that way for super long. Mind you, he has AD that allows for him to recover from getting shitslammed to slamming. So Supes will likely grow to Tien's level over time.

I'm pretty sure Ten would also start by closing the gap, since it's a new opponent for him, he'll probably start with melee combat. From what I remember, he pulls out ranged techniques and his other abilities if his opponent can match him hand-to-hand.

I see him doing that, but do I see Tien surviving the 3.5M C heat vision? Nah. More often times than not, at mid range, he will end up using it.
I'll go with supes due to heat vision. Tien's would probably try to deflect it and.. oh s$%^, his arm is gone and so is everything else.
Supes, mid diff.
 
Keep in mind people, I will be watching every thread. I will make a post for anyone to quote if they want to go "Hey this doesn't seem like it'll be beaten by the Tiersetter"
I tap the sign, for when it is necessary. Which I don't think it will be here.
 
Tien's would probably try to deflect it
He only ever did that technique once, when showing off. If it's mid-melee fight, he'd try to dodge it. If it burns him, he'll now know how dangerous it is and opt for using his various techniques to gain the upper hand. Not to mention, all Ten has to do is land the first hit and he wins.
 
Superman isn't the type to kill people willy nilly, no? Really doubt he'd be trying to gore Tien here.

Tien's whole thing in the 22nd Budokai was also how he was able to reflect the Kamehameha with a Kiai, he should be able to do the same with the heat vision.

Superman AD also isn't given a number so I really doubt it'd help him tank something that's x4 his one-shot value.

So he won't do it? That doesn't help his case.

Do you know that he can redirect it? No? We he can redirect it.
If it burns him, he'll now know how dangerous it is and opt for using his various techniques to gain the upper hand.
Hey! Try getting hit with 3.5M C? It takes 1000C to vape a human! That + No heat resistance = GGs!
Tien's whole thing in the 22nd Budokai was also how he was able to reflect the Kamehameha with a Kiai,
The above arguments makes this HIGHLY contradictory.
Superman isn't the type to kill people willy nilly, no? Really doubt he'd be trying to gore Tien here.
So this didn't happen?
 
Also Tien redirects incoming blasts with like a ki shockwave, a.k.a. he doesn't actually have to touch the heat vision.
 
So he won't do it? That doesn't help his case.
He'd try to dodge it, you're arguing he'd stand still to purposely get hit by it.

Do you know that he can redirect it?
You don't need to redirect something while dodging it.

Would the energy spread through his body or go straight through it? Would the fact that the heat won't be generating enough energy to harm him mean anything?

Has he been shown to be able to literally spam it faster than a laser which can damn near blitz btw? Because yes, the Laser can and will blitz.
He can see Clark's eyes glow before they fire, he'll just jump out of the way or attack first like Goku did against Piccolo's beams.

He could... he'd probably get cut in half somewhat but he could.

You do realize that his aim will likely be dead on him?... Laser eyes for ***** sake.

It would likely cleave straight through him. No heat resistance.

All that just to get cleaved with laser eye tracking lmao.
 
Ten also could just use the after-image technique to hit Clark before he can even see him move.
About that.. enhanced awareness and vision. Nah.
He'd see the beam coming after him, his third eye isn't just for show.
Legit means nothing btw. He has telescopic vision and soul vision. Neither will help him here. He will get cleaved in half with the literal blitz 3.5M C laser before he could react.
 
For the record: Superman would know basically everything Tien can do thanks to what would be a long and drawn out fight with Khadgar.
 
Was he confused when he legitimately dealt with him being timeslowed? Nah. I damn sure know that he won't be confused with some afterimages lmao.
Remind me what that was. And also, he sees Ten, then he disappears, no matter what, that's confusing.

Can he see blitz level things coming towards him? Nah.
No, no, no. I meant the beam turning with Clark's vision to hit Ten after it misses.
 
He will get cleaved in half with the literal blitz 3.5M C laser before he could react.
Isn't speed equalized in here? Superman blitzes 0.6c peeps, so his SoL lasers shouldn't be much faster than him.

Btw, there a speed CRT regarding him that is going on(though without any staff approval). Main arguments are here.

To be fair speed CRTS I don't really care about cause they don't affect the matches

Speed equal yo

I think he means that the laser is only 40% faster than Superman's reaction speed, so via speed equalization, it's only 40% faster than Ten's combat speed.

Laser is 67% faster than Wonder Woman, who Superman can blitz. So difference between Superman combat speed(and thus Tien in speed equal match) is not big by any means.

No, that's only effective from Quarter Finals onwards.
Combatants are allowed to magically view the other previous matches in-universe, except for the initial tiersetter match (hence, this only becomes effective from the quarter-finals onwards)
Whatever goes down in the tiersetter match stays in the tiersetter match. Although whoever fights the winner here will be able to magically view this match.
 
Tien skillstomps badly with a plethora of techniques and abilities such as afterimages, multi form, kiai shouts (which would negate any energy attacks Supes tries to use), kamehameha blast, tri beam, etc. Tien can use the solar flare which messes up your senses outside of sight as well. Tien literally just closes the gap with superior skill and one taps Superman with anything.

Voting Tien.
 
Tien has a 35x ap advantage. Plus Superman is the type to try and grapple against Tien. Where he’s going to get out maneuvered in the pocket. And he can make clones of himself to.

I think Tien wins
 
3-1 Folks
Also could this match be added to the respective profiles or will this be a stomp?
 
Yeah voting for tien he has a massive A.p advantage here,he can use kiai to just deflect energy attack thrown by supes he can also just use afterimage technique to catch supes off guard or literally at worst case scenario use his clones to jump supes
