BX Mock Draft: Superheroes

IrishCream · Post by **IrishCream** » Fri Feb 20, 2009 8:15 pm

I've seen some places do these mock drafts with different categories and think it could be fun, or least good for some shits and giggles. This edition will be superhero you'd wanna be. Be clear this isn't who's your favorite or who you'd pick in a fight, but who you'd wanna be! Just a couple ground rules:

1) Once a superhero identity/alter ego is picked, that's it for that legacy. So there's no picking Hal's Green Lantern and someone else picks Kyle's Green Lantern. That's stupid. No one wants to be Kyle. Same with different costumes, so no black costume Spidey one pick, then cosmic Spidey, then Malibu Spidey, etc...

2) No consecutive picks. In fact, you have to wait until 3 other people pick ahead of you before you get another.

So I'll start things off proper:

Tony Stark/Iron Man

Hmmm...an alcoholic billionaire who flies around in a huge metal rocket suit and fucks women without a care in the world? SCORE!

Is this draft limited to just comic book superheroes or can you choose any heroes from any genre?

Aw crap, it's difficult picking a chick superhero. I'm gonna have to get back to you soon on this one. >.<

I'll play along...

Wally West/The Flash

Fastest Man Alive, and possibly the greatest Legacy there is.

You mean, no one wants to be Hal. Kyle is a much cooler character.

1980s/90s Cable or my personal favorite X-Man (for at least the first half of his series), can't go wrong with this badass....

We'll go ahead and include heroes from other genres

Wonder Woman. The greatest female character. Evar.

Who else, honestly?

Three people have gone before me, so I can go again, yes?

Hal Jordan/Green Lantern

Because I would want to be Hal Jordan.

I can see how this can get so addictive. Someone go already!

I'll be going for the underdogs here. This way I know I'll have all my picks satisfied.

Mr Wallstreet · Post by **Mr Wallstreet** » Sat Feb 21, 2009 12:59 pm

There are a few popular characters I want to get out of they way before hitting up the other genres I know no one will go for

I think it'd be good to have a "Taken" list in every post because this thread might be a contenda....

TAKEN:
Fantasmex? Or some shit.
Flash
Green Lantern
Iron Man
Kratos
Nate Gray/Cable/X-Man
Wonder-Woman

As for me, I choose Kratos from God of War games.

Even as a toy he is badass and will fuck your shit up.

Same.. I've drafted a team in my head, but damnit, people need to play so I can too.

William McDert · Post by **William McDert** » Sat Feb 21, 2009 1:09 pm

This really reminds me of those old writing contests we did on WW. 5 heroes per team and then we'd have to craft a tale.

Still can't bellieve MASA beat me that one time... grumble grumble...

Nice, and here I thought the characters at all from the gaming genres would be safe for me. I hope you won't be going for some of my favorites
