DEATH BATTLE! Discussion Thread (All-time Death Battle Spoilers Alert)

It doesn't? Wouldn't being in a timeless place would mean you would be frozen in place?
On this wiki it's just resistance tbh. Check here to see why.
tell that to the users of self-sustance
SS users aren't immune to poisons, tf.
it tecnically does
Are you perhaps implying that ghosts are stronger than anything bound to physical matter? Come on now.
tecnically you are
Being a robot does not mean being stronger than any living being, let's not be silly.
 
Kyle had it for like 90% of his run as the White Lantern. It would honestly feel a bit disingenuous to me to leave it out.

I also don't think that "he doesn't have it anymore" is a very good argument.

Master Chief doesn't have Cortana anymore
Spawn doesn't have Divine Form anymore
Ghost Rider doesn't have his King of Hell powers anymore
Joker doesn't canonically have Satanael anymore
Bardock being able to go Super Sayian isn't canon to either version of him

It would be pretty stupid after all this that Death Battle was suddenly like "Welp, Kyle lost the Life Equation."

It wasn't 90%, more like 33-48% of his run.
 
It doesn't? Wouldn't being in a timeless place would mean you would be frozen in place?
No, because characters in diavolo time skip move even though he erases time or some dragon ball characters in dbh going in voids with no time and move without issues and so on, unless its specifically said you do movement by speed and others dont move freely, you dont get speed from this, its been changed for a long time standards on that
 
I guess I just meant like does Simon have way higher AP than Kyle but Kyle way out haxes Simon?
Look how Death Battle rates DC Heralds these days along Marvel Heralds, they all are scaled to their huge cosmologies, try to beat that, Ghost Rider lost only cuz by their logic Spawn was impossible to kill by his arsenal and most powers were resisted by him, along ways to deal with him that by their logic again couldnt resist
 
Anything tier 2 or above is pretty much battle-boarding brainrot hogwash at this point (From hax layers to onomatopoeia manipulation). Personally I've become somewhat fond of tier 7, I think it's the perfect sweetspot of still showing major environmental destruction and collateral damage but still grounded to the point where the impact of such power is still tangible and comprehensible.

I'll take a Low 7-B with ice hax/sub-rel speed Vs a 7-A with sound hax/MHS+ speed over nigh-omnipotent reality warped 616 Vs nigh-omnipotent reality warper 52 any day.
I feel pretty similarly though maybe it's just burnout from all the cosmic stuff, I'm personally more of a 6-C to 6-A connoisseur myself, but anything under high tier is good for me. Low-High (like 5-C or 5-B) is where I'm reaching my personal limit but comfort zone wise is anywhere in mid tier so at low petatons or under.
 
You ever think Marvel and DC comics are only 1-A because there is too many comics to know for sure?
TBH it's more the opposite that the more a verse is unexplored, the more it's downplayed.

1-A is obvious at this point given how long these verses have been running and how much exaggerated stuff they've pulled just for the sake of making stuff strong.
 
An I feel like a lot of the Wiz's philosophy speech and powerscaling crisis at the end of that video can also be applied to here too

Except Dragon Ball isn't cringe.

I dislike how the argument for 1-A heralds is appeal to ignorance, "we don't KNOW what's out there so 1-A for sure." Can someone just... read the comics? Green Lantern in particular isn't that long.

Fun fact, before the Circle of Fire arc, Kyle was explicitly put at a hard limit with holding back Solaris' supernova. Like he was hemmorhaging and Kal-Kent had to come help him and the JLA still considered his contribution enough of a feat (They specifically use the word feat). It was one of the best feats that wasn't just straight up interpretable as universal or whatever at the time in Post Crisis aside for some sun eater feat and that one explosion from Cosmic Odyssey.

Most outerversal stuff is very new, from Post Flashpoint. Most Post Crisis is tortured interpretations to make 1-A. So the reading should be even easier.
 
That would be the case if simon didn't have his own laundry list of haxes himself, not saying he wins, just pointing that out.
Simon has less haxes, and more like hax resistance. Only thing he can't tank that Kyle throws at him is the reality warping shitstorm the life equation can do.

Also I think people are really overestimating what Green Lanterns have in terms of whateverversal feats. They're gonna have to rely on scale-chains from Superman but I'm fairly certain Infinite Frontier Superman far trumps Green Lanterns at this point. As for feats, the most opt argued one with Mandrakk was them killing a weaker Mandrakk bound within the Orrery while he was weakened by the miracle machine literally forcing a happy ending no matter how forced or PIS it was, and he's a vampire (And Morrison loves thematics over logic) being shot by the Supermens' heat vision (Which comes from solar light) being staked. He had a special weakness to stakes and sunlight as a vampire (Morrison implied as much in an interview)

Basically and that's if they give kyle the LE. And do you think kyle can resist Simons missiles?

I mean even if Kyle has immeasurable speed so do the missiles. It's not like he transcends time (Without the LE I mean), at least as Ion he's just omnipresent at all points in time. They'd hit Kyle at every point still. He'd just take the damage as his Ion form at all points in time instead of baby Kyle being hit with it.

I forget, has DC ever shown what happens if you try to kill someone from the past? Do GL rings show signs of acausality? I know they survived the crisis but wasn't that just a cross-temporal anti-matter wave which they resisted?
 
Since DB doesn't seem to care about what's standard or not, could Simon still reasonably beat LE Kyle?

I should note that this is still a Kyle in his early career but yeah, it kinda sucks that most of the peeps complaining about DC Heralds are just MFs who haven't picked up a comic.

That's really a lot of capeshit discussion on the internet in general, powerscaling or not.

I consider myself an ultraconservative in DC scaling but that's mostly because I read a shitton of Post Crisis and have had no interest in reading Post Flashpoint, which does appear to actually go off the rails once Jurgens stopped writing Superman and Bendis took over. People seem to not realize how Superman, any DC herald, could go whole years in Post Crisis without a feat that's even above tier 6 and then suddenly he has something that's planetary or higher, then a half dozen, all becuase the author decided it's worth doing, and then it's another 2 years of nothing. It's a massive backlog, one that makes feats and feat progression make much more sense than the way versus debating seems to just put feats in a vacuum.

GL rings can actually somewhat resist being manipulated by Dr Manhattan, who found it difficult to affect emotiobal spectrum energy. Dr Manhattan himself is superior to Mr Mxy and has the power to match someone like Perpetua.

the probability manipulation just hits them from all points in space and time, thus making it undodgeable I thought?
 
Regarding the next time: I'm betting on my 2nd most favorite Kyle to wins this, Ghost Rider VS Spawn episode's result is the only thing currently giving people hope tbh.

Most arguments against the LE being used for Kyle also sound like excuses for me, i will not detail the reasons though since pretty much everyone already did so


Spawn is currently 6d, but his tiering wasn't updated to reflect 6D becoming 1-C instead of Low 1-C


Not at all, it became pretty much a common opinion after most cosmic capeshit debates became toxic and annoying


DC Comics Cosmology was upgraded some time ago

Which characters scale to the Tier 1 stuff though is still being debated and will later be updated accordingly


This certainly wasn't intentional, but ma boi fulfill all of those requirements
Thanks for the info. The cosmology is just consistently 1-A then :/

I guess Simon loses since his verses cosmology is smaller then. I wanted him to win but the internal vote for Kyle to win is probably higher than Simon's anyway.
