This one's been rolling around in my brain for some time (Mystery Lad gave me the idea a while back,) but I wanted to wait until my LSV survivor game had wound down before launching this one! The rules are simple: You have to pick who you think are the 25 most powerful Legionnaires of all time, and rank them from 1 to 25, with number 1 being the most powerful, and 25 being the least. Every so often, I will compile a numerical ranking of each Legionnaire voted upon on a weighted scale just like the sportswriters use when ranking the top college football teams in the U.S.A. Hopefully, by the end, we'll get a good picture of who we think are the MOST POWERFUL Legionnaires!
(This poll game is just like my Top 25 most popular Legionnaires poll game I did a few months back. Go check it out for reference of how the game goes. And if you want to play in that game as well, I never closed the thread, so technically, it's still going!)

So far this poll seems to be confirming that people really don't know the extent of Condo's power. We really need a post-boot version to show his true colors.

Unfortunately for Condo, it's about the most powerful Legionnaires, not who had the most powerful abilities. And either blame it on the writers or Condo's low self-esteem, but he may not have shown himself to be among the most powerful of all time, regardless of the powers at his disposal, imo.

Pre-Zero-Hour only for this "power list," except for entirely new later characters. I would get dizzy otherwise trying to assess them these days.
And only one Kryptonian or Daxamite, as their power sets are really too redundant ... I'm gonna use the women in this list, to have some of them up on top for once.
01 Andromeda [and Mon-el] 02 Supergirl [and Superboy] 03 Element Lad 04 Kid Quantum II 05 Chemical King 06 Brainiac Five 07 Sun Boy 08 Polar Boy 09 Sensor Girl 10 Dawnstar 11 Ultra Boy 12 Wildfire 13 Saturn Girl 14 White Witch 15 Star Boy 16 Light Lass 17 Shadow Lass 18 Lightning Lad 19 Cosmic Boy 20 Quislet 21 XS 22 Chameleon Boy 23 Tyroc 24 Blok 25 Kinetix
And as to number 10, that's not favoritism. You're severely underestimating her. She can move at 32 light years per hour or more ... imagine through some of the implications of such sheer speed. (The same is true, less an order of magnitude, for number 21.)

1. Superboy 2. Mon-el 3. Supergirl/Andromeda (I put these two together because even though I can think of Andromeda as a separate character from Supergirl, she was meant to take Supergirl's place in continuity after Bryne wiped out Superboy and Supergirl) 4. Ultra Boy 5. Brainiac 5 6. Saturn Girl 7. Princess Projectra 8. Dream Girl 9. White Witch 10. Quislet 11. Wildfire 12. Karate Kid 13. Timber Wolf 14. Blok 15. Element Lad 16. Sun Boy 17. Kinetix 18.

Do I denigrate your own favorite this way? Or avoid responding seriously when it's meant that way? No, I don't. So please show the same courtesy in the other direction.
