Before I end this rate officially, I just want to thank everyone who took part in it.

Thank you to everyone who voted, and even to those who didn't, the discussion in this thread has been incredibly interesting and outright entertaining.

Big thanks to my fellow hosts @BluePegasus, @Emperor Spriggan and @Gryffindor, you guys really upped your game in this rating and it wouldn't have been possible without you. The same goes to @Brandish @DiMaria Yesta @Crescent_jinxgrace @Takuan @~Charging Lightning~ and @Belserion, you all did fantastic posts!

And in general I want to thank the mods for making this run so smoothly, I know for a fact that this thread easily could have turned to chaos without their intervention. In particular I want to thank @Brandish for sticky-ing the thread, this thread wouldn't have been anywhere near as active if it wasn't for you.

I hope everyone enjoyed that the rate, as now....

This poster was made by @Valhalla777, big thanks to him!

THE EARTH LAND MAGES RATE IS OFFICIALLY OVER!​

 

[Jko]

Why is Bloodman above Gajeel? Gajeel tore him apart.
God Serena should be next.

Its cause he's fodder that got oneshotted.

Gajeel beat an incompetent Bradman with PIS and help from Levy. Bradman + All 9D Curses > Iron DS.

 

[Tirl]

Sting vs Lacarde
Sting immune to his magic attack
Sting has powerup from his attacks
Sting use his MP, Lacarde's MP, Rogue MP (even if he was halfdead), dual mode, help from Kagura to avoid RIP, strongest spell from twins
Lacarde was alive after that and able to stop Natsu.

Gajeel vs Brad
Brad was immune to his attack
Brad deal huge damage even through def, so def is useless
Gajeel had help from Levy for few attacks, one of them was negate not by force but by intellect
Gajeel absorb MBP which didn't give him powerup, maybe a little (but I think it made him weaker), and Gajeel used it just allow himself to do damage to Brad. After that he foddered him with several punches and kill him.
In this fight Gajeel even enter DF (it was stated in manga) even if it was not necessary.

So how in hell Sting can be stronger than Gajeel???

 

[Seven777]

Gajeel beat an incompetent Bradman with PIS and help from Levy. Bradman + All 9D Curses > Iron DS.

He did indeed, which means he is stronger. Immunity to all Gajeel's attacks>Having Levy backup. PiS is the only reason Gajeel didnt tear Bloodman apart with ISD mode.

 

[CaptainTorch]

How is Bradman still in!? While he definetly is strong, Invel should be stronger than him.
Also, the only way I agree that Gajeel > Sting is if Gajeel still has his DF, otherwise he should be lower.
If you ask me, Bradman should've been number 15, and Invel number 14 IMO.
And Erza should be out pretty soon too. If you ask me, she is below DF Gajeel and WSDM Sting, even if not by much(she is too op). However given her reputation of being overpowered, I can see why she is still in.

 

[Jko]

He did indeed, which means he is stronger. Immunity to all Gajeel's attacks>Having Levy backup. PiS is the only reason Gajeel didnt tear Bloodman apart with ISD mode.

No PIS stopped Bloodman from using Macro to make Gajeel kill himself, stripping Gajeel's senses, or erasing his butt out of existence via Momento Mori. Gajeel only won through BS, and Bloodman being incompetent. Bloodman outclasses him.

#12

Bradman
Score: 9.300

Highest score: 12 x 1(@xiaowang)
Lowest score: 7 x 1(@SirSamuel016)
My score: 10/13

Welp, my boy is out. Bradman was one of the most badass characters introduced in this arc, with a macabre design and a vicious personality to match. His skill set fits this too, with his most passive ability being an AoE death cloud that stops him from getting into fights as his opponents die too quickly. It's really a shame we didn't get to see more of Bradman, the Spriggan team in the North was the most interesting IMO and a conversation between Irene and Bradman could have had an interesting result, be it just small talk or discussing the experiences they've had over the centuries (assuming Bradman wasn't made post-Tartaros/was made at all). Despite the lack of attention from Hiro, Bradman was still an awesome one-off villain with a brutal skill set, and is notable for almost killing two Fairies, with his efforts only being undone due to a massively convenient casting of Universe One.

RIP BestMan.

BEST CURSE

First Seal

I still remember all of the speculation around Bradman's skill set, some thought he had a kind of blood draining magic, others thought it might have something to do with pressure, but as far as I remember no one said anything about him being a walking chemical attack. The sheer brutality of Bradman is really emphasized by the First Seal, he can kill people just by going near them, and it causes an agonizing death at that. It also makes Bradman look amazingly badass, so that's another plus.

BEST FIGHT

Bradman vs Gajeel and Levy

Admittedly, this fight had some pretty big flaws in it: Magic Barrier Particles suddenly being nerfed, Levy being within 20 meters of a Spriggan and not dying, Gajeel ass-pulling his way to victory and Bradman being a vegetable just to name a few. But, the fight had some great moments in it and Bradman was an extremely good one-off villain. My favourite moment in the fight is probably the reveal of Bradman being an Etherious and him entering his Third Seal mode as, though him being an all-in-one Tartaros demon could be seen as lazy writing, it showed just how much more powerful he is than the Nine Demon Gates. Also, he actually would have killed Gajeel had Irene not warped him back into existence, and if I'm being honest, the fact that Bradman actually almost killed a Fairy this close to the end of the manga gives him much more credibility as a villain than the majority of his comrades. All in all, Bradman changed the entire tone of Fairy Tail for three chapters and actually managed to make me worry for a Fairy Tail member, so props to him.

Besides, it was this or Rogue vs Historia Bradman.

BEST MOMENTS

Bradman's introduction

I flat out don't think any Spriggan had a better introduction than Bradman. I mean, the others had cool intro's, but do theirs match Bradman killing entire crowds just by being near them? Not in my opinion. Also, as I said above, his presence really changed the feel of Fairy Tail for a couple of chapters, it filled them with a sense of dread.

Bradman dragging Gajeel with him

Just when everyone thought Gajeel had won...

I still can't believe Irene ruined this.

[Seraph]

Bloodman is out after Gajeel? Now that's Hilarious,isn't it?

My Next Guess would be either Gray or Erza actually,unpopular guesses being Larcade and Dimaria actually.
Let's see.

 

[Jko]

Nice.

Next should be Gray, Jellal, or Larcade.

Ha yeah, and PiS stopped Mira from soloing Alvarez with Macro.
We dont know Bloodman has Memento Mori, that was a curse specifically designed by Mard, not Zeref.

Didn't buy that shit for a second..But it sucks that his return was so quick ( Some characters come back faster ) and also it's a shame that Hiro chooses this route to develop his ships and take away that almost none existed tension that we were having when FT characters were fighting enemy..

 

[Jko]

Ha yeah, and PiS stopped Mira from soloing Alvarez with Macro.
We dont know Bloodman has Memento Mori, that was a curse specifically designed by Mard, not Zeref.

Oh yeah Mira was totally gonna solo the war when there where people who out haxed her.... Hax characters tend to have PIS fights and even Hiro admits that he doesn't like to use hax in battle as it obscures power levels.

Bloodman had MG's vine curse which mean he has Mard's Curse. It was also stated he had all the curses from Tartarus.

It was stated he had all the curses from the 9 demon gates.
Having thorn curse doesnt mean he has Momento Mori. Dunno if the thorn curse is Mards naturally or whatever, but Mard developed MM himself, Bloodman shouldnt have it.

 

[Jko]

Having thorn curse doesnt mean he has Momento Mori. Dunno if the thorn curse is Mards naturally or whatever, but Mard developed MM himself, Bloodman shouldnt have it.

They didn't have default curses from the get go. They all learned and developed their curses just like MG. Since MG was the leader of the 9D and Bloodman shown to use his most frequent curse we can infer that Bloodman has all of MG's curses as well.

 

[Seraph]

Yeah it totally has to be Brandish now,my Bad that's who i meant.

You know the most interesting thing about bradman is he was the nly spriggan or only antagonist who was able to kill an ishgar mage in alvarez arc, even acnologia or zeref could not attain this feat.

--- Double Post Merged, Aug 25, 2017, Original Post Date: Aug 25, 2017 ---

Nice.

Next should be Gray, Jellal, or Larcade.

Jellal or larcade should be higher, I think God serena could be the next also.

--- Double Post Merged, Aug 25, 2017 ---

Yeah it totally has to be Brandish now,my Bad that's who i meant.

No, brandish should be little higher, her hax magic was OP.

 

[Tirl]

One of the best thing in Bradman is his speech. It was awesome.
And in my country not a single translator was able to correct write his words

Русские, вы тут вроде тоже есть, видел кто-нить нормальный перевод его речи? Или только бесполезные рикудо?)

 

[Arjuna]

Bloodman was one of the few Spriggans who took the war seriously and tried to kill his enemies from the start.

Jellal is to low, he is above the likes of God Serena and erza. Natsu is strong but he is not no. 1 , irene takes first position with gildarts 2nd imo. There is nothing to prove that natsu has surpassed gildarts. Dimaria hax is deadly so she is in right place.
