For a long time now, Gargantua and I have come up with our own Top Ten lists for each set that comes out ranking the best (and 5 worst) figures. By no means intended to be definitive lists, it was just something we did for our amusement, based on our own personal preferences and observations.

One thing which we never did though, is play any games specifically highlighting those figures. Well, we're going to try that now, and we're going all the way back to the beginning. From the Top Ten Lists we made up we've each drafted 7 figures, plus one of the figures that we had ranked in the bottom. We have to pick one figure from each set and one bottom figure. If there's a point discrepancy larger than 10 points after 8 figures are chosen we adjust by adding, subtracting or swapping figures. As long as they are part of the top 10.

This game involves Invincible Iron Man, Batman Arkham Origins, Thor: Dark World, Avengers vs. X-Men, Captain America: Winter Soldier and Superman & the Legion of Superheroes.

My team:

BMAO Deadshot 150
IIM Mandarin 136

IIM19B Sasquatch 119
IIM206 Crossbones 62
Tellus 82

CATWS Winter Soldier 100
859

"This ought to be interesting," Maria Hill says to herself, accessing the team in front of her.

"My bullets will finish them off," says Deadshot.

"If my rings give you the chance," Mandarin promises.

The trio of Dark Elves stand around, ready for action.

"Or MY bullets," Winter Soldier and Crossbones say simultaneously.

"What about my strength?" Sasquatch ponders.

"My mental skills will assist us well," Tellus says, "Like to tell you all that our foes are coming in."

AVX Thor 200
IIM103 Absorbing Man 153

"They have Tellus," Saturn Girl said.

"Prisoner? We'll save him!" Shadow Lass said.

"No," Glorith contradicted her. "He is with them willingly."

"What? Why?" Cosmic Boy asked.

"You all seem to know each other, but I have no idea who most of you are, except Thor," Northstar said.

"Oh, Thor knows who I am all right," the Absorbing Man said.

"Aye, and I like it not, that we are forced to be allies." Thor said. "Yet it seems we must be."

"And who is the lady?" Northstar asked.

"Shiva. As in the goddess of death. I see several of our opponents like their guns. Including Deadshot, whom I would be careful of. He is one of the best. But I don't need guns to be deadly."

Glorith to G15

She will Perplex Shiva's AV to 12

Shiva, starting in Hindering, can use Charge and Exploit. Charges to G9 on Deadshot, Av12 on DV17. Gets 11. 3 Penetrating there.

Thor RS to H16 on Deadshot. AV12 on DV16. Gets 10. SS is 2. That's going to be a KO.

Northstar HSS to H8. First Winter Soldier rolls. I roll 2 for him. He goes to another Sniper's nest. Your choice. Need to know which though, before I finish.
Map of the turn so far

Maria outwitted Shiva's charge. That will effect part of your turn.

It doesn't effect Bucky though, who moves to M9.

I don't think she can. She could draw LOF from Deadshot's square, but even if Deadshot ignores hindering, she doesn't

Anyway...Northstar attacks Loreleia. AV10 on DV17. Gets 7. That Tellus can PC, makes it 9, but SS is 5. Breakaway? 5. Ends H9

Shadow Lass does the Smoke Cloud thing, remember that her Smoke Cloud prevents you from drawing LOF to Northstar or Shiva, even with figures that can normally see through Stealth.

Bucky's in M9, somehow I think you placed him in D9. I'm sure you'd move your smoke cloud anyway so I'll change his recap to D9.

Llhoris sides to H3.

I'm sure to regret it but I can't do too much this turn. Not without pushing.
