It’s the 16th annual CSBG DC/Marvel Tournament! This time around, you will be voting on which DC/Marvel character would win in a fight!
In the past, I split the four brackets into “street level” for DC, “street level” for Marvel, then “more powerful characters” for DC, and “more powerful characters” for Marvel, but this time around, I’m just putting all of DC’s characters into two brackets, and the same with Marvel. So we’ll be getting some perhaps silly early matchups (like Superman vs. the Joker), but I think it’ll set up better later matchups in the Final Four (instead of the best of the weak characters having to beat an over-powered character).
The 64 superheroes were chosen from the top 32 DC and top 32 Marvel characters from the 2023 Top 100 DC and Marvel Character Poll that you all voted on. The selection committee then seeded those 64 characters from the most likely to win to the least likely to win and then created the tournament (I still eliminated characters like Lois Lane, as, well, come on).
The first round of voting begins now! You’re going to be voting on two regions today.
Simply choose which characters you think would win in a (non to-the-death) fight in the following match-ups. The voting concludes 40 hours from right now!
Each competitor has, let’s say, a half hour to prepare (so it’s not like Superman just walking up to the Joker and punching him. The Joker would be prepared), and can use whatever weaponry you figure would be typical for that character (so Spider-Man can use whatever weapons you would expect him to normally use, but he can’tt go get, I dunno, the Infinity Gauntlet, or whatever).
Enjoy!
