There will be 3 environments available to choose from each round. Each round, an environment will be taken away and one added. Once we get down to 2 fights per round, changes in environments will occur every other round instead.

Environments are selected by the home team manager, unless the visiting manager uses an Environment Steal Card


In addition to the "regular" environments, there will be an "extra" environment that is only available for use by the Environment Steal Card.


All environments are played out in real time, meaning that the fight takes place over the span of 24 hours. Some desription is provided with the environments, however it is up to the managers to convince the voters of what those environments look like.

Players are free to use anything from the environment that the character could naturally use in a comic book written about the same area. Cyclops for instance is trained to fly the X-Jet; therefore it is assumed he can fly aircraft. King Shark on the other hand has no proven flying experience. Creativity and convincibilty are the keys here.
