Now that the TOC and TOU eliminations are over, we have our winners! Congratulations to each of the final four of the TOC and the TOU. With that, the tournaments have officially come to a close… but that doesn’t prevent us from having some “Bonus Matches” to find out who the best of the best really are.
This set of Bonus Matches wants to find out: If we pit the finalists of the TOC and TOU against each other, who would win?
Team "Fun Size" - Yoda and Kirby
vs.
Team "Crazy Supernatural Killers" - Dante (Devil May Cry) and Bayonetta
The members of both teams are transported to a different dimension with all information about their opponents “uploaded” into their minds. They have 30 minutes to prepare and talk to each other (they don’t know anything about each other as teammates, save for any experience from previous matches of this same tournament), and will also have full access to any technology, magic, weaponry, resources, etc. which they would routinely be able to use from their respective universes. Teammates may share resources with each other. Afterwards, both teams are teleported to the randomly chosen plane, which has mystically sealed off so that none of them can escape the battlefield in any way. The team that manages to knock out and/or kill both members of the opposing team will be declared the winner. There is no time limit.
Write ups for both teams:
Team "Fun Size" - Yoda and Kirby
Yoda is a diminutive Jedi Master who has incredible power over the Force and otherwise is a skilled lightsaber duelist in his own right. Hundreds if not thousands of years old, with enough experience in the force to be arguably the strongest Jedi not amplified by a deux ex machine plot device.
Kirby is a diminutive pink blob who has the ability to swallow literally any physical being or object and gain the properties of that being or object. This includes stealing of powers or otherwise just adopting traits that are beneficial to him.
They are together because they are fluffing adorable.
Team "Crazy Supernatural Killers" - Dante (Devil May Cry) and Bayonetta
Dante is a half devil, half angel who kills demons, while Bayonetta is a half witch, half angel who kills angels. They both meet up and immediately end up in bed. After Dante gets violated in every way conceivable and ending up a sobbing mess, they team up. Both carry twin pistols, both has a laundry list of weird weapons, both have problems with their dad (both also have smashed their dads), both created by the same person, things get absolutely CRAAZY!!! when either of them is around. Infact its a travesty that this crossover hasn't happened yet in canon.
How do I vote for the team I like? Well, I'm glad you asked...
This tournament uses a “Dual-Voting System” in which every user on MTGS may vote twice, once on the poll of the thread, and once by posting on the thread itself (by explicitly stating “I vote for team *insert name* because *insert reason*” in a post on the thread). You may spread these votes as you wish (you can vote anonymously on the poll for one team, but express your vote publicly through a post for another), or use them both to vote for the same team, or only vote once (using either method). In the end, the total of both "poll" and "post" votes will be used to determine a winner. In the event of a tie between total votes, the team with the most votes posted publicly on the thread itself shall be declared the winner, and move on to the next round. You only have one week to vote (two weeks for the semi-finals and finals), and the poll automatically closes on Sunday, 12MN (GMT +1). Only posts that occur before that time will be counted as valid votes.
Now, who wins this match? Root for your favorites now!
I participate yearly in a survival challenge in which I am dropped off in the wilderness with 1 days rations, a knife, and no other supplies, and have to find my way home. This is typically several weeks hiking from civilization.
I have personally killed several bears in the course of this challenge, with the use of snares and other traps.
I'm voting for team CSK due to the superior physical and magical feats this team has. I mean come on, they almost beat Bolas chillin' in the maelstrom.
This one isn't even close. Vote CSK. They have superior magical and physical capabilities and just totally overwhelm the midgets. If anyone can break out of Kirby's mouth, it's Dante (see: Nightmare).

Too quick, too strong and too magical. This is one of the matches where Yoda is out classed in physical/non physical combat by BOTH the other team members, and if Yoda's out classed, Kirby is in big big trouble.
I suppose it's at this point that everyone will start listing the dangerous opponents from Kirby's galaxy that he's faught, including eldritch abominations and über-mages with world-changing powers. Well, most likely from Yoda's galaxy, too.
The terrain does present what looks to be an abundant source of food for Kirby, and anyone who has played the games can tell you that food = a power up. If creatures are inside those pods, who knows what strange powers he could acquire?

Also, what would happen if Kirby took Bayonetta's/Dante's powers?

I think there are 4 or 5 people in this tournament that could break out of Kirby:
Dr. Doom (comic-wise)
Abaddon (lore-wise)
Sephiroth
Dante
Nicol Bolas
I don't see it happening. A lot of Dante and Bayonetta's powers are inherently a result of their lineage and as such I don't think Kirby could suck those up.

Kirby Swallows things, Bayonetta's hair magic, she could open a portal in her hair and the demon inside can swallow Kirby... Remember? in the game crap comes out of her hair and eats people while still being attached to her hair...
Get it? like this:
In Soviet Russia, you don't catch Pokémon, Pokémon catches you!
Come on, I'm sure someone else got it...lol.
In Soviet Russa, Kirby doesn't swallow things, Things Swallow Kirby!
Get it? :fry::shots:

As predicted, this match looks like a blowout, but then again, I've seen worse. A comeback is very much possible.
Still two days left to vote. I'm also still deciding if we're going to have further bonus matches. I have a few ideas lined up, but I also think that now that the tourney is concluded, we should probably give it a break. Comments welcome.

Haha. Fun Size had a nice run, but in this case, as much as I'm not personally that into CSK, I agree that as a team, they have the capabilities to beat Fun Size. Their speed, abilities, the sorts of foes they have had to face, all point to CSK being the superior team here.
I think it's safe to say the TOU clean-sweeped the entire set of bonus matches. Funny how these tournaments work.
With my upcoming military service, I've been busy these past few weeks with logistical matters, gathering documents, and otherwise getting fit, so apologies for not updating you all. Come december, I will no longer be a frequent poster on MTGS (but I'll try), but it was a fun little run with you all while the TOC/TOU lasted.
That said, thank you all for participating, and I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

Reminds me of a response I made to one of my friends when they were watching tv.
"Sup?"
"Watching Big Brother."
"In Soviet Russia, Big Brother watches you."
It was funny because it was true.
