They might say the Boos are a counter.

Shao Kahn?
More like Sham Kahn.
Maybe. There's also the question of if Mario has any in cyberspace or such stuff.
Most I can remember AtM is the ending to a MP8 Mini-Game where the Mini-Game's ending has a character left trapped in a computer.
There's also the Boo's Sheet item (Grants Invisible/Intangible status.), & the Spite Pouch which deals half the damage taken as counterattacks against Direct Attacks.
The former.... Well, Invisible/Intangible can't be hit, even by those that also have the status, AFAIK. Counterattacks ignore this.
Also, I'm realizing that funnily enough, Mario has tools Bowser doesn't here, because in TTYD, the Crystal Stars can hit "Invisible"/Intangible opponents, including intangible Boos, Dark Boos & those they grant it, too.
IDK if Star Spirit Powers can affect Invisible/Intangible foes, though.
In theory, Star Storm, Chill Out & or Up, Up & Away might work.
But even if they do, Bowser only "had" the Star Spirits in that he kidnapped them & sent his minions to oversee them.
Mario's use of Star Spirit Powers is literally through prayer & summoning. Unless Bowser gets the kidnapped Star Spirits & mind controls them or something AND they can hit Intangible....
Anyone wanna go down to post-Chapter 7 Crystal Palace & try Star Storming some enemies Gray Magikoopas Intangible'd up?
& while the Crystal Stars are already known to be able to bypass Intangibility, Bowser probably has even less chance of getting them, since the closest he came to having ANY was:
1. Fighting Mario. (& losing. Twice.)
2. Going to Rawk Hawk's Secret Underground Training Room to steal the Gold Crystal Star from Rawk Hawk's Champion's Belt, only for it to get knocked off its display on the wall, fall to the ground & break, because it's a fake.
3. Going to Poshley Sanctum and stealing a SECOND fake Crystal Star, because the real Crystal Star is in a secret second version of Poshley Sanctum with much worse lighting & lots of Dark Boos that you enter by going into a background painting of the building itself, inside the building.
Also, it was technically the third fake Crystal Star; The museum's curator, Pennington had to replace Poshley Sanctum's original fake because Beldam, Marilyn & Doopliss stole the first fake, & so Pennington had to replace it for public display.
But hey, if he had actually gotten the real Garnet Star, maybe Bowser could try Showstopper's Death Manipulation mechanics on Sage & company, lol.

I mean, Boos are more relevant for the basis of what level of Intangibility they grant & thus what other Mario series characters can affect.
I'm confident Sage could solo most, if not every Boo.
(Also Magikoopas (PM64 & TTYD.), Kammy included, can grant it (Kammy only shows she can in TTYD.), though IDK if she can/does grant it to Bowser.)

Idk I guess that’s just their artstyle
They have done similar art with the corruption vs crimson video

Metal Sonic is kind of cooler in concept than he is in practice (the Sonic OVA, Heroes, and IDW being the exceptions to this)

No he died, or like the closest he can come to dying but then a god revived him so he can attend therapy.

Oh look yet another game with an unassuming, simple premise yet gets all Lovecraftian too.Get that homie past the Wall Of Flesh first bro

^This, he went from "show me what you made of" to "I'm made of Jobberium" quite quickly tbh.

On another note:
This reminds me - recently (around the same time I was editing the Egil vs Carol trailer (?)), I was asked by @JoshDoshMosh what I thought of Starscream vs Metal face (not the first time I've been asked by someone about said MU, but I digress). The thing is, what with Mumkhar ultimately being not quite a major enough character to constitute thorough MU spreads, I brainstormed a scenario for Egil vs Carol (in other words, an army fight) where the Faces (Metal Face, Xord and Jade Face specifically) fought the Autoscorers - and it got me thinking (with Sage as the example): Does this strictly disqualify those implicated as 'part of the army' so to speak from having their own MUs later down the line?
I mean I'm aware back in S1 we had Zitz vs Leonardo right after the TMNT Battle Royale... but again, that was S1. A lot has changed since then, so I'm not sure if there's some unwritten rule these days disqualifying it that came about as a result of S1's Lovecraftian lack of a season structure.

Sage is also part of Cyberspace which is type 2 information. You need NPI that can interact with type 2 information to hit her (Death Battle will ignore this).

This video is really bad. We shouldn't let non powerscalers powerscale. He got the right verdict with the worst reasonings imaginable.

There's a CRT going on just now, and there's the Cyberspace blog as well
2 Years Later: A Sonic Frontiers CRT
Intro Lovely to see your face again. How's the kids? The dogs? Nice. While work for Shadow Generations continues, I'm going to be bringing forth an update on the 2 year anniversary for Sonic Frontiers. Let's get to it! The Updates This CRT is entirely dedicated to Cyber Corruption, current...

Damn, the vast majority of the matchups are just so bad, why is it always like this.

Because they're things random people just sent in based on what seems to make sense based on pop culture relationships, rather than relative powers and abilities.

I appreciate your optimism. But when one of the head researchers of Death Battle argued months ago that Bowser beats Eggman? You're essentially fighting an uphill battle from there.Predicting an Eggman win (knock on wood), here is the strength listing so far this season: 1. Joker, 2. Eggman, and 3. Omni-Man (
Still, I can potentially see a Eggman W through hax and comparable stats. But the general consensus is that Bowser's going to take the W here, it's just meant to be.

The only way Eggman will win is if this ends up like Gioker. Where someone else wins despite researcher comments.

I mean, I guess I can acknowledge that Ultraguy's arguments were his own take in the Cast and that having multiple other researchers might lead to a potential Eggman W. But I'm not going to hold my breath on that, I just can't see Eggman winning when you have one of the head researchers arguing that Bowser wins.

A lot of it feels like just shoving two things that are popular at the time together. Remember when zoomers discovered Blood Miridian and just became obsessed with Judge Holden? DBM was flooded by Judge Holden matchups. Almost entirely by kids who haven’t even read blood miridian

It's nothing new folks love to push for characters/franchises they never consume before
Look at Kamen Rider as an example

Eggman fighting against the community consensus being Bowser, the researchers standing on Bowser's side, Bowser being a haxlord, the Time Eater's downgrade attempts just to lose to some Sun Disk-esque reasoning.
