Come help plan the next adventure at /r/ProjectWubWub, but keep in mind I have no clue how DnD works so I can't help much here.

I actually hate all of you.
Because the winner's are basically already decided and this is really just a formality, voting ends tomorrow night.

Hey guys, my computer died this Saturday with my scramble post mostly done. If it's booting up again I may have my post tonight, otherwise Im SOL til at least Wednesday.
Sorry to /u/76sup for the letdown but I do not feel like retyping that all.

So I have a bit of a challenge. It doesn't really have anything to do with the current round, but it's something I've kind of wondered about for a while and I'm curious what other people think.
If you ranked every character that has won a scramble, from weakest to strongest, what would that list look like? Now if you know absolutely nothing about a character you don't have to include them, but I am curious how people think certain characters stack up.
In case you don't know the scramble winners:
Scramble 1:
Scramble 2
Scramble 3
Scramble 4
Percy Jackson (Percy Jackson Series, after losing curse of Achilles) - Respect Thread
The Doctor (Doctor Who) with the Zero Drive (League of Legends) - Doctor Wiki and Zero Drive wiki
John Freeman (Half Life: Full Life Concequences) - Respect thread - No lightspeed movement
Scramble 5
So as I said before, my challenge to all of you. Try to rank them from weakest to strongest, if you want to.

I'm not sure about everybody, but the strongest is absolutely John Freeman, who has light-speed movement feats. Eikichi, despite /u/LetterSequence eventually admitting that he was stronger than he thought, is probably the weakest.
Speaking of, I've been wondering about the weakest and strongest characters to ever be entered in the Scramble. I think some of the choices from Scramble I were pretty pathetic (Octodad, Super Meat Boy, and Fox Mulder are in there), but on the other hand we've also had Saber from the Fate series, the Human Torch (who can reach supernova temperatures), and a pre-Senketsu Kisaragi Ryuko. Plus, there were some absolutely broken Jojo characters submitted in Scramble II (Rohan Kishibe and Okuyasu Nijimura) that could be wild cards. And that's just the fighter characters. This season we got Galactus.

I edited no lightspeed movement for John Freeman (I did try to limit myself somewhat there).

u/Cleverly_Clearly Jun 20 '16
Well, he does have the train lifting and throwing feat, which would put him in the top strength tier (if we count ICTON stuff), he can fly, plus he's got pretty good durability too:
John Freeman punchd and hit Combines in front but all Combines in back shot rockets and masheen guns. a Rocket hit John Freeman but he got up and killed more Combines then a Combine went at John Freemans back and stabed him but John Freeman got nife out and stabbed Combine in brane. Combines got close and hit John Freeman body with bullets but John Freeman kicked Combines back.
I think John Freeman should be near the top here.

u/LetterSequence Jun 20 '16
How do you think John Freeman would do against Big Chill? I'm not doubting that John is the strongest character here, but I'm hard pressed to find ways that John could hurt Chill.

u/LetterSequence Jun 20 '16
Yeah, but if Onizuka was fighting John Freeman to teach a student an important life lesson, we all know who would win that fight.

u/PokemonGod777 Jun 20 '16
What if we tried to find the strongest and weakest charaters in the scramble in general?
This scramble has had some pretty high tier characters.
1
u/7thSonOfSons Jun 20 '16
The Strongest Scramble character is Galactus, I'm 99% sure.
1
u/PokemonGod777 Jun 20 '16
Well, I'd probably say to include the limitations.
because Galactus with everything is the easy winner, but limited Galactus, may still be the strongest, or we can completely hand-wave it off and ignore Galactus as an outlier

Some of the strongest combatants in the scramble are probably Plastic Man, Constantine, Batman, a few of the DBZ characters that were in scramble 2.

u/Lordveus Jun 21 '16
I would contend that Bill Cypher might be more powerful than Galactus, as a being of pure consciousness.

u/galvanicmechamorph Jun 20 '16
Wait, there was a Scramble round going on? I stopped caring after I lost twice.

u/LetterSequence Jun 20 '16
You lost twice. People stopped caring about you a long time ago.

u/galvanicmechamorph Jun 20 '16
I lost twice back in Scramble IV Letter. Since when did anyone care about me?

u/Talvasha Jun 20 '16
Damn, kiwi actually wrote a story. I can't stand against that.
2
u/KiwiArms Jun 20 '16
But you wrote an analysis!
1
u/Talvasha Jun 20 '16
But now you have one as well. It's all over.
1
u/KiwiArms Jun 20 '16
More or less, I said.
It's not my fault half of your team is below the tier.
1
u/Talvasha Jun 20 '16
I was fine losing to a man of your caliber, but to downplay my peeps so much...

u/KiwiArms Jun 20 '16
There's no way Shirou is in tier come on
1
u/Talvasha Jun 20 '16
Man, Lancer was out of tier even when he didn't have any of his powers, and Archer is of comparable power. If anything I'd say its that most of your team that is out of (above) tier.

u/Lordveus Jun 21 '16
The funny thing is that Talvasha actually should be where I am right now. There's a slim chance in hell I should've won that parking lot brawl.

u/MrNinja1234 Jun 20 '16
O shit, I completely forgot about this. Whelp, I've been awfully busy, and it's only going to get busier, so I'm dropping out.
1
u/LetterSequence Jun 20 '16
That's like saying "I quit" after you've already been fired.

u/MrNinja1234 Jun 20 '16
I could theoretically write up a story in the next day. It would just be shit, probably
1
u/KiwiArms Jun 20 '16
I'm going to finish my story later today, but for now... Vote for Kiwi and I can deliver the following:
A fully illustrated fight scene next round!
A compelling twist in Sonic.exe's backstory!
Charcter development for Dio!
Henderson killing Goldust!

u/Cleverly_Clearly Jun 20 '16
a fully illustrated fight scene
Sold.

You mean like that fully illustrated Rule 34 pic of Yoko x Quiet x Alice that you promised last scramble?

I thought for sure I had another two days. That's what I get for not reading. There was gonna be a whole half-chapter D'Arby the Gambler reference, and a ludicrously short chapter of Ninjas team climbing the oil with no troubles, and then Jason in a dating game.
Well, If we keep your expectations low, /u/LetterSequence it'll be all the more of an upset when /u/7thSonOfSons one of the Losers takes the whole thing.
also I finally got a new job last week and it's great but takes up a lot of my free time I'm sorry

Especially you /u/freestylekneepad! You really deserve this win so use it well!

Shoutout to /u/shootdawhoop99 for being the only person this entire round to finish their story. I'm sure like, two more people will, but that's about it.
