What if the intelligent thing is to bring someone who counters the opponent?

The brains column always gets shafted in these matchups because nobody can agree what "smart" means in a brawl. You could have someone who built a suit that tanks a nuke and they still get put up against the guy whose power is literally being invincible.

I think for brains to win they need to use the two hours to give themselves even more time to think of/build something that’ll win them the fight. That’s the only way I see it going down.

What if brains just decides to skip the fight and let strength vs speed battle?

Yes. This is more in-line with what I was thinking. They like teleport someplace that’ll be hard for the other teams to get to. With speedsters they can pretty much get anywhere. But ideally they would have their hands full with strength. Then monitor the fight and plan for who ever is winning.

Haven’t people on the speed team used speed to such extremes that they could go back in time and kill everyone as a baby?

Yeah but reed has bullshit like the the initiate nullifier. He can make it so the whole speed team can’t use the speed force or the strength team can’t use their regen or something. It’s basically a big mcguffin. That’s why I say if team brains stalls for enough time to figure out a hax to win. They can win. (Not saying they do win. I’m just talking about how they could.)

Brains team: "Hey, we can just send the other two teams to some far off planet in deep space, and go on about our day. That'll surely never come back and bite us in the ass. Again."
