Lord Recluse releases a toxic chemical into Paragon City's air and causes a hero civil war. Squishies vs Non-squishies!

<ul type="square">Squishies: Blasters, Controllers, Defenders, and Nova form Kheldians.

Non-squishies: Tanks, Scrappers, and Dwarfed Kheldians.[/list]
I'd put my money on the squishies simply because the Controllers/Defenders would provide all buffs alongside debuffs, combine that with the highest damaging AT, the blaster, and the non-squishies would just be owned.

My question to you all is, who'd win?

The squishies. Whoever has the control wins, basically. Enough of them and no tank can move, scrappers do no damage thanks to defender debuffs. Hell I'd even move the Novas off to the non-squishies, just to balance it out.

We all know pvp is lackluster already.

Synapse. Why? Because everyone would be all like, "aww...Synapse is here, isn't that cute?" And then they'd all leave him alone until everyone was dead.


Synapse by default.

If I'm playing a blaster it has to be me. If I'm playing a scrapper it has to be me. I win whatever I'm playing, it was then, it is now and ever more shall be so.

Heckus! the glory is in the battle, the outcome is a foregone conclusion.

Your mistake is really in labelling Defenders and Controllers as squishy. Depending on powersets, a solid Defender or Controller can outlast and out-damage a Scrapper in the upper levels. Not every Defender or Controller can do that to just any Scrapper, but it's noticeable enough.

So, more appropriately, it should be everyone vs. Blasters and Squids or everyone vs. Tanks and Dwarves.

Ah, the answer depends on if PvP rules exist in this make believe world.

If PvP rules are in effect the Non-squishies have the upper hand because they can only be held for short bursts, and in the meantime the flying scrappers will be taking out the airborn competition or having them fall to the ground where the tanks and Dwarfs will have their way with them.

If PvP rules do not exist then things get more interesting. /SR based scrappers and Stone Tanks will avoid/absorb most attacks and will take out alot of competition, and it will come down to which side can team spike their opponents faster. With Taunt being used I believe the Non-squishies will prevail, not allowing their teammates to be targetted long enough for death strikes.

I think the term squishy is referring to the fact that if you can get a shot in, they're pretty much doomed.

Like...a Fly is squishy. it may be hard to hit but it only takes one solid whack to take one out. It might be able to dodge your swats long enough to tire you out, but if you get one shot in, it's all over.

If that scrapper can find a way to negate what the controller/defender uses for protection (holds/debuffs) taking out the controller/defender is easy. Whereas the other way around, even if you can negate the defenses of a scrapper or a tank, they still have buckets of hit points to go through. And their defenses are harder to take out anyway.
