A year or two we cracked down on certain Month of the Dead matches by banning death matches against dead characters. These battles were banned because it was considered to be unfair as there was no risk to the dead character. But after much discussion, we figured out a way to make these kinds of battles possible by introducing a new battle type:
Enter ANNIHILATION battles!
This type of battle functions as a normal death match for living characters, but a dead character will be completely Annihilated from the site if they are to lose. What does it mean for your dead character to be Annihilated? The dead character will be never be able to be used competitively on the site ever again, or for any comics that will work in favor of your rankings and achievements. This includes Month of the Dead, Speed Resurrection Tournament, Beyond Battles, or any special events and battles where dead characters can otherwise participate. This is the highest stake match on the site and there is no going back. Are you hardcore enough to put everything on the line?!
So the character can't be used AT ALL??
The character can still appear as cameos in other comics, but cannot be used for any vs battles, nor can they be the star character of Beyond Battles. As Artist comics do not apply stats for rankings or achievements, your character can still be used for Artist comics.
BONUS: Death Scar Matches now allowed!
Scar matches will be allowed using dead characters as well under the appropriate battle conditions (Month of the Dead, Speed Resurrection, etc.). You cannot use these dead characters again until the scar has been added to your design sheet and implemented in your next pages.
