They’re still miles more reliable then a statement for something that happened ages ago.
And yet every single one differs wildly. So which one is it then? Every single feat you could list has it's own fair share of issues, because there's no consistency yet. Every single statement, feat and showing, at the moment, is fair game for the animated show incarnation of Omniman. Reliable? He got knocked out by a High 8-C blow by the kaiju, but in the same episode barely got a nosebleed from a pointblank extensive barrage of a orbital laser cannon. See the issue? No they aren't more reliable. You're creating an arbitrary difference between his feats and powers to discredit some but treat others as more reliabe, when there isn't any yet. This shouldn't be hard to understand.
We do the same for DCEU Supes by not using the tectonic plate or even the Doomsday moon feat despite the fact we know those happened
Good for those. If I wanted to discuss DC I wouldn't be in the Invincible thread now would I? I could start listing off verses where the best feat is a statement and we use said statement because it isn't actually properly and consistently contradicted and as such we have no reason not to use it. If you want name off verses that do whatever it is they do, I can do the same.
Because they are miles above everything else and have far too many unknowns for quantification
This is the same case, we have no idea what “size of Texas” means (whether that referenced weight, width or length), the proportions of the asteroid or even what type of rock it’s reliably made of.
What? Yes we do? He literally gestures with his hands the width. It's obviously not weight, and length (or height) would be if he raised his hands vertically, instead he spreads his arms horizontally to portray the width of the asteroid while conveying the size of it. This is basic contextual comprehension. And rock? We have meteorite values, generally it's 7-8g per cm3. Though, are you actually trying to say "we don't know the exact type of rock it was so it isn't reliable". You could pull the same argument even if it was explicitly shown on screen. You could use the same argument for every single feat in the verse, we aren't told the exact materials of what is destroyed in ANY scene, instead we just deduce it based on common sense.
Because they are miles above everything else and have far too many unknowns for quantification
Again, not an actual argument. He could say he blew a ******* hole through a planet with one punch, as long as it isn't contradicted shit's fine to use. And guess what, it isn't contradicted. It's miles above everything else? Not exactly, at least not any larger a difference compared to some his lowest end to even something like the Flaxan feat. 8-A Vs. 6-C is about the same difference between 6-C and 5-C. See my point? You can not, unironically say one feat is to high, when all his feats, at the moment, vary ******* WIDLY and there isn't a coherent or consistent scale that exists for him yet. If your issue is feats being to high based on the minimum, then every single feat above like 8-A is throw out the window, maybe 7-C at best.
And to many unknowns? He clearly signals he's talking about a meteor as wide as texas.
It doesn’t matter because we see nothing on the Tier 6 level. It’s fine to say everything is casual but if that’s all we have to work with then we can’t go higher (look at Saitama)
You mean the character who has hopped around multiple tiers and was even 5-B at multiple points based on a far less concrete statement of a hypothetical of him destroy earth? Also we unironically do have higher things to work with, youre just saying "nah it isnt reliable", and making up excuses as to why it isnt reliable. When everything you've said is easily able to be worked around. We unironically have something higher to work with here. And nothing on tier 6? We barely have anything on Tier 7 statistically speaking comparative to tier 8.
And it's not a matter of quantity to begin with, Omniman could have only tier 9 feats, if there is nothing to suggest that tier 6 statement is false, and there's no feats that consistently say he isnt that tier, and the statement was from a reliable source (Omniman doesn't oversell himself fyi, comic spoilers, he knows his limits, a bit to well). Then we have no reason to say that statement isn't at the very ******* least worthy of a possibly/likely on the profile, because that's what it is. In ANY other situation we'd just list that shit and say "yeah here's his minimum fyi, but also here's possibly this strong too".
Also I sincerely doubt he’d Simply be Tier 8 considering he’s >>> Invincible who has a perfectly quantifiable feat for tossing aside the meteor in that very same scene as the Texas statement.
Who also has gotten his ass smashed in by tier 9 and 8 feats far more consistently. If you want to play a number's game, actually sit down and count the feats, Mark is statistically harmed by far less then Tier 7, only having two tier 7 feats to his name, with like 3 dozen tier 8 feats. I'm fine with using the meteor feat for Mark, but I'm gonna call a spade a spade and call you out when I see it.
It’s not like there’s no precedent for this and this seems to be what we do for characters like this.
In almost any other situation we'd at the very least say "possibly [meteor statement here]" untill otherwise proven. That's what we'd do, and that's what has precedent. I don't even know why we're arguing this, I'm not even saying "he should ONLY be this", I'm saying he should "possibly" be this. And that's what we have those terms for to begin with.
I’m not even saying it’s an outlier, just that it might not be as reliable as the actual on screen feats he performs
I mean, you aren't saying that, but that is your argument. If it's not an outlier, then why are you continuously bringing up "it's better then his other feats", that ONLY applies and matters if it's deemed a outlier. It being higher has absolutely no bearing on the conversation unless it's an argument of it being a outlier, if you aren't arguing that, drop any further mention of it being stronger or weaker.
Of course, onscreen feats are more quantifiable and the like, which is why, I'm simply saying list it as a possibility, that's what the shit is there for.
Look, I really don't want to argue this, but this is getting somewhat suspicious all things considered, there's no real reason to discredit the feat to the extent that I'm seeing here. And if we have a statement saying a character can or better yet, DID, do a thing, and that statement isn't actually contradicted at all, well, we list it as is on the profile, and just preface it with likely/possibly.
