Wow, I wasn't expecting a 4-0 lead from the get-go. I expect (and am rooting for) Angel Under the Oak to take the whole thing, but even so, that's a little crazy. AUtO v. Joseph in the finals, eh? Good stuff.

This is tough...

MMoJ - leads to a banding chain of 4 characters
AUTO - usually leads to a banding chain of several characters too.
no point

MMoJ - banding is usually CBN and the banders add other abilities
AUTO - can get his banders even if they're not in play and they add other abilities
no point

MMoJ - can walk in all by herself if TGT is out
AUTO - can't
point to MMoJ

I HATE TGT
point to AUTO

Both are in top tier decks.
Both are more set-up heroes.

This seems totally even to me.  I'll go with AUTO for now mostly because I hate TGT, but if there's good enough arguments, I might switch my vote later.

I'm still bitter that Danny lost to MMoJ. That's the reason I'm voting for AutO.

Just kidding. I'm voting for AutO because he is far and away the better Hero. It shouldn't even really be close. D2+search for some of the most powerful Heroes in today's meta?

Well, in a similar scenario (Moses vs. Sam) the underdog hero won.  It's still somewhat feasible that MMoJ could win this.  I  of hope MMoJ doesn't win though.  (even though I voted for her  :P) Because my prediction for the finals was Joe vs AUtO and I want to be right...

Moses should never beaten Sam. That was the most ridiculous vote of the whole month.

Agreed, but the fact that Moses did win shows that MMoJ could possibly win too.

EDIT:

And she's already starting to close the gap in the polls I see.

AUTO can't even search for Shamgar. MMOJ wins.

I agree. Samuel should totally have won. But Angel under the Oak should definitely win this.

The Championship match of Joe Vs AutO is going to be another blowout.  Should have been Sam against AutO.  But AutO would have taken the Championship regardless.

I would tend to disagree with that statement.

While I do suspect that AUtO will win that competition, I don't think it will be a blowout.

AutO is slightly better in Joe T1.  Samuel > Genesis

AutO is vastly superior to Joe in T2.  Silver Judge or Isaiah lite>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Genesis

AutO wins.

I would expect the auto might be able to win the whole thing.

Haha, Well it looks like you got plenty of help that post is currently at -7 now. 

And you know what?  I'm kind of proud of it. Is that wrong?

EDIT: I guess the -1 I just got says it is... ;)

It seems that most of the votes are hating on one or the other.  I'm hating AUTO more.

Please stop talking about how people are voting on your posts. You are detracting from the topic of the thread and are incurring more dislike.

The debate will be EPIC... One guy who stands on his own and one who you build an entire meta around... wow!!!
