We don’t upscale from possibly or likely ratings. Also there isn’t a set rule about it being 1.3x, I dunno where you got that from.

Yeah a few thousand of them. I mean, how much weaker is his normal punch anyways?

we dont know how weak normal punches are and we dont know if Boros was hit by even a hundred punches

No, it wasn’t. The Powerscaling page, which lists the standards for upscaling, says this:
There is no specific numerical value given. And when we had the old 5-C+ Orochi calc that was 1.3x from baseline Low 5-B, we weren’t allowed to fully upscale from that either. Boros and Tatsumaki, both of whom had a scaling chain above Orochi, were only given Likely Low 5-B.
Iirc, it was Qawsdef that said we can’t do that.

It's weird to look at it that way. Based on visuals alone it seems relatively normal. It's only when you start bringing calculations and power scaling into it that it suddenly seems crazy.
I mean, Deku is literally 8-C with 1% OFA and High 7-A with 100%

So why can't we upscale? A ton of people think being > someone who is 75%/1.33x until the next tier is enough for an upscale. You need to provide a reason as to why he can't upscale, rather than just saying no.

I literally just gave you an example of a 1.3x gap not being allowed for upscaling-

Like, did you just miss this part or…?

Why can't we do the same for Flashy and give him a likely rating of SoL? He also has statements and feats backing SoL up.

Saitama had confirmed in a bonus chapter that he had no serious (actually serious) moves. And he says that while reading a manga during the Garou VS Rover fight. So even his serious punch should just be a little bit stronger than the normal ones.

I once again reiterate that we aren’t allowed to upscale from possibly or likely ratings.
Remember when basically every character used to be ‘possibly 7-A+’ via scaling to Gouketsu and none of them ever upscaled to High 7-A no matter what scaling chain they had? That was because we just don’t upscale from possibly or likely ratings.

Yeah we don't upscale from possibly or likely ratings. Upscaling is meant for. A solid scaling chain when someone is close to being into the next tier.
If it isn't a hard ratings it's not typical to upscale.

I still don't think the beam for G5 qualifies for a SoL beam. Not only does G4's beam have issues G5's beam still has weird stuff going on like being split by wind.

Ignoring Murata's Geryu statement. Ignoring the webcomic. Garou has no way to harm Boros. None of his feats come close to High 6-A. His literal best feat going by accepted calc is 6-C.
And considering Garou's FTL is 1.19C (Going by NikHelton's calc a that's the best calc as of now) and compare it to to Boros' 0.9C, it's a 1.32x gap, the speed gap isn't that large.
At bets it's a stalemate

Thats just the logic of cutting it ig, say that wasn't a light beam and some other energy, it would still get cut by wind, just how it works you know, you got light that follows all properties besides having a name.
The attacks called air blade so i guess thats how it worls, wind cutting anything.

Wouldn't that just warrant for AS having nonphysical interaction? He did have it pre-redraw bc he was able to cut lightning, so it seems to be what ONE and Murata are trying to portray.

I think you missed the point Atomic was making that current Garou statue Boros, not that he would win against MB Boros in his current form.
- 26,426

Statue?
- 16,286

Basically being so fast that your opponent appears to be frozen, or a statue.

I don't think a speed gap of 1.32x would qualify for statuing someone

what garou did to platinum sperm.
- 4,128

technically possible, just depends on how the verses powerscaling works.
- 7,897
- 3,859
It's possible but I think you have to factor in Garou RE multiplying his speed like a x1000 or whatever in a very short period of time too

Yeah he went from even footing to overtaking and having a mini blitz in the matter of .0013 seconds. then statues PS right when they land.

(Narratively) went from hypersonic to FTL to statue-ing a FTL in no time lmao

Fair enough
