Warhammer 40k slaanesh question

Why does Slaanesh (Avatar in the warp) scale to the other avatars of the chaos gods despite being the weakest?
 
Because it isn't at all a massive difference. In any way.
Pretty sure Khorne, Nurgle and Tzeentch all gave slaneesh the boot without much difficulty. Besides that, the eldar god of war defeated avatar Slaneesh on one occasion. Only reason why he lost was because Khorne decided to shatter him to over a thousand pieces when the killing blow was about to be delivered.
 
So really, avatar Slaneesh should be weaker than the eldar god of war who peaks at High 1B

Uhhhh, when did this happen? In which book, if it's AoS they didn't, Slaanesh is in its torture party that it loves

Right now Khaine's profile is so outdated and bad that I'd call it one of the worst profiles on the site, also Slaanesh's avatar was more powerful than him and had the upper hand, don't know where you got Khaine having the upper hand from

Right now Khaine's profile is so outdated and bad that I'd call it one of the worst profiles on the site, also Slaanesh was far more powerful than him and had the upper hand, don't know where you got Khaine having the upper hand from
So where was the passage that states this?
 

And here's the scan showing that no, Khaine wasn't stronger, he was just too much of a pain in the ass to kill for Slaanesh's avatar to do it

And if we REALLY wanna get into it, Slaanesh, Nurgle, and Khorne shattered a possibly far stronger true form of Tzeentch and managed to depower him, so, like I said, there isn't really a big difference in power
 
If your gonna make that argument, for the love of god check your sources, 40K fans massively overblow things regularly
 
But why isn't Khaine at the very least somewhat comparable to Slaneesh tho vastly inferior? I mean, we gave a random ORK far higher physical statistics than most Warhammer 40K gods in the warp. Pretty based not gonna lie tho. Funny to imagine an Ork beating the crap out of a god in the warp while screaming waaaaagh.

He is. His profile is outdated. In case you forgot my literal second message on the thread.
 
I'm like 99% sure he's in a weird spot of "Hasn't even been alluded to in decades"
 
Slaanesh being a lesser tier then the other CG's doesn't make any sense at all. Slaanesh's realm is contained within the stratum obscurus or the Heart of Terror which is three layers of dimensional transcendance into the warp regardless, not to mention in Age of Sigmar, Slaanesh literally became the most powerful Chaos God simply by consuming all the Aelf souls that existed within WHF.

Basically he WAS on the wiki, but some people didn't want his profile because he hasn't been referenced in many years and his canonicity was called into question, I fought to keep him as lack of reference doesn't immediately mean retconned, but I was outvoted

Doesn't seem to explain why the other 3 chaos gods, individually, can spank the heck out of him/her.

I give you something so you can understand why that's not being accepted here, in fact, this is basically you whenever you speak without something on 40K here
 
I don't get the reference.
you aren't sourcing anything for a verse you've already been told practically REQUIRES sources, so source your claims, or, well, why should we believe you on a verse that's overblown to a stupid degree by the fans?

Eh...deleted eldar god profile on this wiki had that particular reference. Besides that I'm no expert on Warhammer, you guys are.
 
We once had more than just 3 Eldar god profiles. So you could say, outdated points are used on my part.
So you lack a source and as such your argument is obliterated because you can't provide one for a verse that needs sources for every little thing.

the great game. If they decide to do that they are vulnerable to their competitor. Also they fear slaanesh since it has the most potential. All of their domains comes under slaanesh as well.

Eh fair enough. But in current canon, a bit of a wuss from my perspective. Though might be because I kept watching an Australian explaining Warhammer to me with a biased opinion ngl.
