[Heron TSG]

As much as I'd like to continue this, the discussion isn't actually leading anywhere. Next fight!

Winner: John Egbert

In a close battle, John Egbert wins. Senri ambushes John, but John leaps back and hits Senri with his hammer, dodging out of reach every time Senri attempts a bear-claw attack.

NOTE: I don't think I can allow a time-stopping hammer, so I'll change the wording of it's ability slightly. Instead of slowing down time, it just doesn't take as much time to swing. Therefore enemies can still use their abilities, and a single hit won't end a fight.

Next match:Dark Lord Sauron VS Lord Zedd

May the battle begin!

[FuzzyZergling]

I'm kind of familiar with Sauron, but what can Zedd do?

[lemon10]

Zedd can summon giant animals, and other stuff that would almost certainly gain him the win.
On the flip side, most of the stuff he can do (like summon giant animals), is crazy overpowered for this competition, so he won't be able to use it.

All i know about him is, a) he can fight a power ranger 1 on 1 and nearly win, we was kicking his ass till power ranger broke his staff (apparently, didn't actually watch it at the time) (in mecha? dunno) and b) he can turn normal animals into giant evil animals

[FuzzyZergling]

Are the animals given boosted intelligence/loyalty to him, or do they just do whatever?

[lemon10]

They work for him (don't think they got boosted intelligence, but he might be able to control them?), and i think they can fight 1 on 1 with a power ranger mecha (or with all the power rangers(?)), but they obviously lose, its way to powerful a ability, as they could just fall on anybody and beat them.

EDIT: so he could turn a snake or something into a enemy that could beat almost everyone in the competition without doing anything really himself, then if it loses create another.

EDIT2: From wikipedia:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Zedd displayed a number of powers throughout the series. When Zedd first appeared, he displayed the ability to teleport, as well as the power to transmute living creatures into inanimate objects when he transformed a snake into his staff, with which he performed the majority of his magical feats throughout the series, such as generating electrical blasts. He also created a new army of putties and restored Goldar's wings to him via the use of his staff shortly after his arrival on the moon.

Zedd possessed a form of telescopic vision, which took the form of a red light which would emit from his eyes out towards Earth. In the series, whatever Zedd was seeing could be shown to the viewers, with the screen bathed in red light which would take the shape of the lens on Zedd's mask, showing that the audience was seeing things from Zedd's direct point of view.

Zedd was capable of creating or summoning a small grenade which he would throw down to Earth to be caught by his monsters, who would then pull the pin and slam it to the ground, which caused the monsters increase in size, which would then force the Rangers to call upon their Zords in order to battle it. As the series progressed, this was eventually phased out, to be replaced by Zedd combining his powers with that of his wife Rita to enlarge the monsters.

Although Zedd was only seen once in direct hand to hand combat, he proved superior to Tommy, who by that point had become the White Ranger, besting him at every turn. Zedd only retreated when Tommy used Saba to shatter his staff. (Though this indicates that Zedd is at least less powerful without his staff, why he chose to retreat was not entirely clear.)

In his first appearance on the show, Zedd was referred to in the episode The Mutiny as being 'Rita's Lord and Master' by Zordon, although it is unknown at what point she came to be in his service. From this statement by Zordon and from the series' references to Rita having been trapped in a space dumpster for ten thousand years in the very first episode, it is implied to the viewers that Zedd himself has lived an extended life span, though both his and Rita's true ages are unknown and were never revealed during the course of the series. At some point he conquered at least one other galaxy, and also acquired the monstrously powerful Zord known as Serpentera.

In the non-canonical Fighting Edition videogame, Zedd was a mid-to-long range fighter, attacking with his staff and magical blasts, and could also teleport, which allowed him to attack opponents from almost anywhere on the screen.

So he has to power to teleport, telescopic vision, and is capable of generating electric attacks in addition to making animals larger and good physical fighting skills.

[CJ1145]

So he can teleport, summon animals, and fight with the approximate abilities of Spider-Man.

Congratulations, you could beat just about anybody BUT Sauron. I doubt Zedd's strong enough to actually toss Sauron around with his attacks, possibly not even making him flinch. That would leave him open to mace strikes, but he could teleport away from from that. But then you have to remember that while he was presented as slow and cumbersome in the movies he's still a supernatural entity fully capable of wiping out entire armies. He was only defeated by a foolish warrior wielding a magic sword, and even then not permanently. He's like if Aku stopped toying around and got straight to the world-ending stuff.

[Heron TSG]

I'll try to keep my neutrality on this one, but if I can't, I'll have someone else judge. (I submitted Sauron.)

I don't think there is a single animal that Zedd could realistically summon that could avoid being mace'd, but maybe an elephant. Though that might break the 'two combatants only' rule.

[RAM]

I think that pets were disqualified in the previous round, but teleportation and electric bolts are a pretty powerful combination. Is there any limits to these abilities?

I think that Sauron would win in close-range. A mace-blow would be serious and I doubt the armour will break easily. Bear in mind that the sword that cut through the armour was magical and that the ring is discounted as a form of immortality, so the armour is probably as strong as it looks and loosing a finger won't be fatal...

[Heron TSG]

Aye, Sauron definitely wins in the armor department. Thick metal plates beat out red leather with some chrome crossbars.

Spoiler: Sauron's Armor (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Lord Zedd's Armor (click to show/hide)

[RAM]

Is that red leather or naked Zedd flesh?

[lemon10]

How could sauron even engage? he's pretty slow, while zed has energy attacks from long range + teleportation


And if a 10000 pound animal fell on sauron, it would kill him pretty easily, even though he is pretty badass. And i don't think that sauron could 1 hit ko one of the animals, since i think they could fight mecha (i believe), without that much trouble.

• ONE CHARACTER ONLY.  Mounts of the same caliber as a warhorse are allowed, if good reason is given. 

Sauron's actually not all that slow, he just didn't move much in the movie because he had to wade through a few thousand troops. Besides, he's got some magic of his own. I'm not sure if teleportation is included, but I can check what type of magicks were used in Middle Earth and whether or not he would have them.

[RAM]

There are no animals, that would be a breach of the 'only one combatant' rule, as is the ruling from the previous round.

And I asked for limits on teleportation and lightning. Unrestricted teleportation would be dangerously close to invulnerability, as someone would pretty much need to be able to predict their opponent perfectly in order to attack. If there were maybe some timing constraints or power limitations, or even a limit on range then there would be something to work with...

No restriction on lightning, because static had as much of it as he could use. BUT i don't know how it works for zedd, i think it has a casting time

I'm fairly sure that their is a casting time, but i don't think its long enough to allow sauron to engage

The only power that i know sauron has that would be applicable to this would be shapeshifting (i think), i don't know what other ones he has

[RAM]

Does Sauron need to eat, drink, breath, or age? Sea water should be fairly effective at dissipating electricity to manageable levels, may cause rusting though...
