Board 8 > Hypothetical Mercs Topic Season 2: Yes, We're Still Doing TV/Movies

(+) Yeah! (+)

Tommy Oliver trains with The Chosen One
---

Harold Hill will turn into a goat
---

Stripe masters his chi
---

Goddammit now I need to roster Harold so he leads his stupid parade as a bleating goat
---

So if I just Jon Snow's ability to KO him, and then his trigger goes off, does that mean the parameter boost doesn't happen?

If he's KO'd before anything activates his trigger, the trigger won't go off I believe
---

Hm, well ok.

For the Watch!

A net gets placed on Tommy's head I guess

Done.

oh wait I'm just noticing you were referring to his second trigger

I didn't make that build, but I believe the intention was that it would bring Jon Snow back to life but keep the parameter boost.

I'll clarify that in the build but for now, imagine parameter boost went through and Jon Snow is alive.

Speaking of abilities doing nothing, it appears someone left off what the result of Gregor's side topic is supposed to be. As is, he challenges someone to a fight and...they fight

oh whoops

it's supposed to be whoever loses get KO'd

also it's supposed to include "They must choose from melee weapons they already have available, if possible. If the merc doesn't have any melee weapons, they may choose from a generic knife, sword, or spear, as specified by their owner."
---

I'm about to head to work. DC, if you do want to do your abilities now, anyone can feel free to roll them since I won't be home again until late
---

Rick takes along Daryl and Carol. Gotta play to the shippers

Tommy Oliver is the Red Turbo Ranger

McClane puts a bullet in Goodnight for that hook stunt. Yippie Ki Yay Motherfucker!

Scott Pilgrim makes two people sing about death and stuff

Natsuki is someone's assist. I dunno, let's say McClane's

Natsuki is also full of *love*

The Blair Witch is Shipoopi

Elia Martel! Roll for Gregor's thing
---

Oh lame, I only gave Rick one helper in that build? Well, Daryl then. Sorry shippers
---

If nobody else rolls, I'll be home to roll around 6ish or so to roll

Also, keep in mind that McClane's "Now I have A Machine Gun" still needs specified to be active, even though it's weekly, since it's SOB and not a passive
---

time to roll some shit

Actually, because some of Ramona's exes are on the other team (in the case, all of them) you instead have to choose two of the seven exes to use it on

The Blair Witch is in love with Natsuki

The Hulkster is comin' for you, Clegane!
---

Do I still choose those post rosters?

In the meantime, Gregor picks someone at random for a du-du-du-duel
---

Ok yeah, it'll be post rosters, but you have to choose from guys exes

And I'll roll Gregor when I get home from dinner
---

Gregor may choose Stripe, Po or Arataka Reigen as the opposing champion
---

Eeenie meenie miney Reigen
---

I only vaguely know either of these guys, put it up whenever. 'lol'
---

@GANON1025 may choose one generic weapon for Reigen: a knife, sword or spear (unless you want to count the bag of table salt as his melee weapon)
---

A knife
---

https://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/75821398
---

Arataka Reigen is KO'd
---

Olivia subsequently eats Reigen's brain and adopts his personality and powers. If only anyone knew what those were

McClane has a machine gun. HO HO HO

THE SAVIOR IS HERE

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mudZ3QykX10

Shrek ruins the life of Ash Williams. He also informs Hulk Hogan that his time is ogre

Natsuki dies and respawns

Harold the Musical Goat is invincible for a half hour. Also they're joining that fucking goat on a four minute parade

Done
---

I have no idea how we're doing terrains
---

ACTUALLY

I missed it earlier, but Jon Snow was the first KO this week (even if he was revived) so she gets his personality and power
---

Part of me wants to just say to give it to the defender, but in this case that's particularly unfair since there's a merc on the attacker's team who literally can't exist in any other terrain

maybe just flip a coin?
---

I suppose do that and reveal who won after rosters are shown, if we want to play it close to life
---

I'm definitely picking the Black Hills Forest, no matter what way it is decided.
---

alright, works for me

You have 24 hours to submit rosters and terrain. Terrain will be randomly selected from the submissions.
---

If I'm reading Natsuki's oddball Pre-Battle correctly, I'm possessing Blair Witch as of right now. So I'd have to bid on it
---

well maybe i'm not picking the forest then

that is correct

I received roster from DC, still waiting on Ganon

Although if Ganon sent his via discord I'll see it once I get home from work in a few hours
---

Still waiting on 2nd roster
---

Yeah yeah
---

John McClane/Rick Grimes/Daryl Dixon/Scott Pilgrim/Shrek/Natsuki/Blair Witch v. Hulk Hogan/Ash Williams/Jon Snow/Po/Stripe on Black Hills Forest

Effective abilities (for my own purposes):
Ash Williams, and all opposing mercs except Daryl are Hulkamaniacs
Blair Witch has nWo sprayed on her face. Hulk, Ash and Stripe may choose to spawn wherever they like
Reigen is resurrected and beserk
John McClane has Jacob's phone
Po and Stripe both mastered their chi
Ash Williams and Stripe have 20% parameter boost
Ash and Jon Snow will be performing We Are Sex Bob-Omb with Scott Pilgrim.
Blair Witch is Shipoopi
John McClane steals a weapon from... Stripe. Nothing happens.
Shrek steals Ash's happily ever after
Natsuki has knowledge of the match
Hulk's time is ogre -> redirected to Reigen
Reigen hits Shrek with justifiable self-defense rush attack

hoooooly shit. ok. I think that's everything, but if I missed anything, let me know, and let me know whenever's best for the match to go up
---

whoops, one more:

John McClane steals a machine gun from Kelly Maxwell. Now he has two machine guns, HO-HO-HO.
---

Ghost also gets the 20% parameter boost
---

Whenever
---

if you guys wanna submit arguments you can, but you don't necessarily need to (since there's not exactly anything riding on the match besides balancing)

I'll probably try to get it up sometime tomorrow evening
---

Yeah, I don't really care when it goes up.
---

in the meantime, have to officially provide Kirbys for TV/Movie Mercs!

Why didn't you choose a spear?

Those are cool!

I chose a knife because it literally doesn't matter

Mountain is weak to spears tho! Lol

Mountain is weak to poison spears used by someone who is a master of spear-based combat.

Not spears used by some puny guy who's literally never used a weapon
---

I wouldn't even say he's weak to them considering he *won* that fight (and died later because poison)
---

Not to mention this is post-poision Clegane we're talking about. Considerably stronger and more durable than the original
