The Horsemen of Apokolips Vs. Bruce's Bodacious Bullies

The Horsemen of Apokolips are Liono, Panthro, Jaga, Cheetara, Tigra, & Swamp Thing.
Bruce’s Bodacious Bullies are Elrond, Elladan, Elrohir, Elros, & Force Adept #1.
 
As the match begins, every member of both teams keep their distance from Swamp Thing, who although having taken to the Kashyyyk landscape well, just simply looks out of place in the crisp clear forest surrounded waters of the wookie home world. Liono has no problem with any of his other troops following orders (ya know, cause they’re all from the same cartoon). While the assertive human Elros takes any early command of his team primarily made of his Elven kin (sorry if that doesn‘t make sense to you, but its not my problem if you never read the books). Elros instantly moves toward the Horsemen’s leader Liono with his broadsword drawn, but Liono parries and the sword fight ensues. Force Adept #1, may not have a lightsaber, but he is technically a Padawan since he was taken as an apprentice by the famous Jedi Master Eeth Koth. The force was with this adept before but with only a little bit of official training this Jedi hopeful has no problem dodging the initial attacks from Swamp Thing. The El gang lets him attempt this on his own, knowing that they are going to have to focus on the Thunder Thunder Thunder Thunder CaTttsssssss if they are going to defeat this formidable Horsemen squad. Panthro shoots a spike out of his metal suspenders right thru the dome of Elladan, but then Elrond draws his sword and takes him out like some punk who has been sitting on the waiver wires for 2 years and then all of the sudden becomes part of a major trade on the season 3 draft day. Elrond, never got much playing time as a member of the Horsemen and is not only eager to exact his revenge on his former team but is happy to start fresh along with his kin as a bodacious bully. Elrond throws his sword into the air after simultaneously avenging his son and skewering Panthro and draws out an arrow from his quiver, he proceeds to shoot it thru the head of Tigra and then catch his sword before it hit’s the ground. Swamp Thing begins taking control of his surroundings and directing it towards Force Adept #1 but the force recipient dodges the initial attacks. It is not until Swamp Thing pops a massive root out of the ground to hit the force Adept in the back that he is able to stun him long enough to bring his powerful slimy arm down onto the head of the adept and take him out. Elros is a formidable swordsmen, and a pretty brawny cat (oops, I guess I should refrain from calling people cats in a match dominated with the characters that this one is). But in the long run, Elros just simply doesn’t have what it takes to compete with Liono’s ability. Liono is able to physically overpower the brother of Elrond and then finish him off with his sword. Elrond and his last remaining son Elrohir are able to come out on top in their battle against their more agile opponents Jaga & Cheetara but in the end Elrohir is unable to dodge a massive branch to the head thrown by Swamp Thing, and Elrond does not do much better than his brother when faced with a one on one sword duel with Liono.
THE HORSEMEN OF APOKOLIPS ARE VICTORIOUS!

Plo Koon, personally constucted all 3 lightsabers from the kyber crystals. The red one was given to Gene Simmons, the green one to Larry Reamer, & the blue one was given to Ella Artrip for use in the future. Plus 3 cost points for all 3 characters.
