Oh, i'm not contesting that Xanatos would get his arm wrenched off in that arm wrestling match, power armour or no, hence it's previously admited non-relevance XD.

Edit: i guess that matchup will be decided by poetry then, a competition the dreadnought just might have an edge in.

My thoughts on competitions:
I figure as far as lying goes there is a fair shake for either bugs or dracula, Bugs Bunny's specialty is the bluff check, but dracula is pretty suave.
Pretty sure Drac gets m.m.a combat.
And Bugs has the overwhelming advantage in street racing.

Bowling? i... really have no idea, i might just reroll this.
Being a mentor, i figure pheonix wright has a better shot at this, Sabre's emotional inability makes her a poor role model.
Pheonix Wright wins legal battle, hands down.

Taskmaster wins all three of his competitions, i will be really impressed if anyone manages to state a compelling argument as to otherwise.

Assuming that the dreadnought is a member of the Blood Angels it might have an advantage here, it's one weakness on the poetry front perhaps being that it's poetry may be predictable. While the double powerfist combination is ussually exclusive to Blood Angels it is also ussually coupled with two flamers, which this dreadnought does not have. It could really be swung either way.
Dreadnought wins arm wrestling. Don't question it.
Pretty sure Xanatos wins endurance juggling, i figure at least four times out of ten the dreadnought would fail at effectively catching balls. Those digits suck for motor control.

Fencing? Phoenix can take a hit but he can't be of any use in that sport...

Saber's going down and out, except for fencing, being King Arthur but female, and all.

I also agree with Taskmaster winning everything.

Apart from that I've got nothing.

Dracula vs. bugs bunny
Lying (To Bugs Bunny, he bluffs his opponents at least once an episode)
Mixed Martial Arts (To the Vampire who doesn't need to breath and doesn't properly feel pain)
Urban street racing (To Bugs Bunny for knowing what a car is)

Sabre vs Pheonix Wright
Fencing (To Sabre for being a medieval warrior)
Being a Mentor (To Pheonix Wright for being able to connect emotionally)
Legal Battle (To Pheonix Wright for... being a lawyer.)

Taskmaster vs. xenomorph
Sailing (...)
Belly dancing(...)
Asteroid field navigation (...)
Sorry Xenomorph.

Xanatos vs dreadnought
Composing poetry (Dreadnought, for maybe being a blood angel (will consult with someone, so this may change))
Arm wrestling (Dreadnought, for being a war machine)
Endurance juggling (Xanatos, for the ability to catch balls more often than not)

Woah, hey, this is still a thing. Bit late to respond to your mail, but since a good chunk ofmy WH40k knowledge is derived directly from DoW1 (and 1d4chan), I'll cede to the greater fluff authority- I pretty much geared it for the best possible chances in the tournament, with two powerfists instead of an asscan so it wouldn't get slaughtered in manual dexterity competitions, and a storm bolter/flamer instead of dual flamers so it could still be shooty if necessary.

I've decided that the finals will consist of seven seperate competitions, as befits the conclusion.

So Bugs and Wright fail massively in the first and third categories and Bugs wins in the second; Taskmaster and the Dreadnought perform admirably in the first and second and fail completely in the third. Sound about right?
