You seem to have overlooked, despite being told as much multiple times in this thread, that the Incarnate system does not rely on the RNG. Random Shard drops are a supplement to the system - the so-called 'unskilled masses' are not going to fully Incarnate their characters based on random Shard drops alone any time real soon, especially once you look at the higher tiers (those not yet available). Veterans will recognize this and will do the appropriate TFs to get Component drops and will therefore obtain Incarnate status more quickly and with less grinding.

So in that sense, you're just wrong. As for taking a 'lore' perspective that some players simply aren't worthy of this, well, that's a pretty slippery slope you've chosen to plant your flag on. What happens when someone takes it into his head that you're not one of the worthy? I doubt you have any more objective criteria than this hypothetical yahoo would have for excluding you, but I doubt you'd be so sanguine about this if you were in the other camp.

This is ultimately nothing more than a lot of sound and fury. Somewhat amusing, but nothing more. Given some of the ludicrous comparisons, I can't help but suspect this may be a deliberate troll thread.
If so, kudos on your success.

This creates a loop, as you can see. Then you just have to get the loop going by typing this in-game:

This does not, however, skip you. Skipping you would only be possible if you teamed exclusively with the same people, as you could then set up the rotating bind to roll through their character names and not include your own. In the example above, if you always team with Marcy, Bob, Joe and June, you could set up targeting binds using the targetcustomnext command rather than the teamselect command, allowing you to target them by name.

Alternatively, you could skip yourself by leaving out the teamselect 1 command and always leading the team to assure you were always in the first position, but this could easily get to be more trouble than its worth (since even as leader, if you select someone else's mission you're not longer in position #1. It is probably simpler and more useful just to make the bind to target all eight spots and accept that you'll have to double-tap to get past yourself.

Funny enough, they actually addressed that very point in the comics that are the basis for Apocalypse. The rig Batman is wearing and the motherbox provide him with some minimal protection (enough not to get dead). He gets pretty beat up though, and comments in his inner monologue that Darkseid is beating the crap out of him and could kill him, but won't because it'd be stupid. Fun, but stupid, as he needs Batman alive to disarm the hellspores.

Yeah, it was pretty much to avoid having to grind Illusionists (that, and Demonic is ridiculously easy to get). I see your point about Frenzy vs Call to Justice, but what about the benefit to other team members? Or is that not something I should be worrying about?

Mine too.
