By the way, why doesn't Venus Flytrap have poison manipulation since its nectar makes insects and other small critters drunk?

I mean, do credible or more scientific verify this? If yes, then CRT it

I have a hard time finding a proper Research paper about it, but find lots of clips, non-scientific reports, and such about it. Is that enough?

What does the rule of "Outside Influence" in SBA look like when we give profiles to dormant organisms like coral and plants? If a clownfish (check link for context on abilities) fights an enemy in a coral reef with standard battle assumptions otherwise, is it allowed to hide in a venomous anemone for a brief moment mid-fight? Would that count as interfering if animals like the anemone have their own profiles and count as "characters?"

If two characters are fighting in a park and one throws a flower at their opponent (for whatever reason, maybe they have a pollen allergy or smth), is that outside influence, too?

If so, do we just remove any plants or animals like anemones from the battlefield under SBA?
Also, sorry for being absent for so long

Something along the lines of using noncombantants/trees as meat shields? Good question.

Outside help generally refers to characters and conscious organisms (IRL equals of characters). Maybe plants and fungi if you include their appearant intelligence despite being mindless.

So SBA excludes characters or any equivalents. In short. This includes animals and similarly conscious beings (except mindless ones)

Depends, what are you using to research? The reason why is that with the current standards, we need something in case these videos are AI fake or without further context. Non scientific reports aren't as reliable within current standards either

Maybe these would help.
These plants do have a few similarities in how they attract/lure prey, but it's best to understand how each type of insectivorous plant works by both observing them independently and comparing similarities and differences comprehensively.

Is this useful for some speed scaling?

 

[Hortonhearsahoot]

This shrimp is accelerating really quickly, but I'm not sure how fast it's actually moving with every burst; probably about the same as a normal top speed. Maybe something for reaction/combat speed?

Questions for the Human Race (The Real World)'s profile, since we're generally trying to make civilization profiles with a general capability of the species and not composite species, how do we know the human race's profile involves the general tech/abilities of the species?

The Human Race (The Real World)

The Human Race is a civilization composed of 195 separate nations and countries, all residing on Earth. Anatomically modern humans have been around for about 200,000 years, but civilization was only founded roughly 6,000 years ago. Tier: At least 7-B Civilization Type: Post-Industrial...

vsbattles.fandom.com

Some of it is common sense, but other abilities like cosmetics and freeze sprays are implying a vague line of introducing mundane/low-end abilities of the race as a whole.

And with nukes and possibly other abilities being held from the most powerful and influential nations, does that make them wanky high-ends, or noteworthy due to their global influence?

Along with the previous questions here, how do we define "general capabilities of the species" if we don't want low-end mundane abilities like small size (type 0) babies and high-end notable technology?

Bumping this several more times first before moving on

 

[Hortonhearsahoot]

I'm not too knowledgeable on this subject, but my best guess is probably just to keep both. Most nations have access to decently high-level weaponry like bombs while also being able to use basic commodities like flashlights. Idk about stuff like nuclear weapons, though. You don't come across those in many countries.

I'd also say keep them all (also cause people have managed to build radioactive stuff and obtain nuclear fusion by themselves but then again those might be exceptions/outliers... though it's very impressive in general)

Judging by the answers to these questions, I'm pretty sure 99-100% of the human race's page is "If it ain't broken, don't fix it." The only things I could really think of that could be most likely be removed would be fragrance manipulation since pretty much everyone's mother, sister, and any close females can do those things.

Besides what's been built on previously, are there any other things to potentially add that nations would be generally be capable of? Or not?

This solution seems fine to me.

[H3110l12345I20]

Digging to see if there is more wouldn't hurt, and I'm pretty sure one of the 1% of things that need fixing for the page is to see if anything is out dated. I am planning to update the page some time in the future (at which I don't know)

Judging by current arguments and precedents, the capabilities of the IRL human race are defined by what most nations, or most politically influential nations (ie nukes and stuff) could offer to put. Especially to tech/abilities of the entire race as a whole.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. Thank you for helping out.

 

[Mahek_The_Assassin_Silent_Killer]

We still need to make pages for armour and shields welp (also could probably add more weapons, I see the Trident missile is there, maybe we can convert that to a general ICBM page akin to the Cruise Missile page, and also add more MANPATS)

Update regarding to this.

Since the human race's capabilities are judged by what the race can do as a whole, the majority of nations' capabilities, and also, great powers' capabilities should be included.

"After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the superpower status of the United States was challenged primarily by the rise of Russia and China as great powers. Other sizable countries with emerging economies, like Brazil, India, and South Africa—sometimes collectively called, along with Russia and China, BRICS—also demonstrated rising influence in this period. The European Union, although not a nation-state in its own right, has also challenged the unipolarity of the United States’ influence by means of its considerable area, population, and wealth." - Great Power from Brittanica

https://www.usnews.com/news/best-countries/rankings/power

I'll be getting to laying down the foundations of the modernized page of the Human Race soon. Any feedback regarding including great powers and majority of nations' capabilities in the definition of what the human race can do? It really helps close potentially vague lines here with feedback (especially when Great Power here is vague by definition, and I don't want to accidentally step on boundaries of terrible precedents like last time with Gacha Life).

A note like this is good? "The profile's civilizational capabilities includes a majority of nations' capabilities or ones definitely confirmed to be Great Powers with the most international influence, not ones that stray a vague confirmation of if a nation is a Great Power or capabilities that don't apply to the entire civilization."

[H3110l12345I20]

DarlingAurora is making a return in a couple of days, so I'll announce on the same day, I'll be posting a series of Reaction/Combat Speed feats to add.

Some of them are Athletic Human/Peak Human. Though I have no clue of any other superhuman combat speed feats in large megafauna

 

[MichaelCalistro]

https://vsbattles.com/threads/composite-gigantopithecus-vs-composite-human-redux-o-0-0-0.180108/

Dear Lord, this fight is a mistake, but its still worth it.

 

[H3110l12345I20]

Today is the announcement Aurora is returning in another form. Here's the linked speed feats

Athletic Human

• Animals can attack police officers faster than the latter could react [varies from 0.7 to 1.3 seconds of reaction time (while it's technically up to below average human reactions, realistically, the rating or potential speed revision should just be athletic human at most regardless of revising speed ratings for animals or reaction speed. I've seen lifting strength being quite oversimplistic to apply to IRL and I'm not knowledgable in reaction speed to actually revise reaction speed, so we'll just have to rely on the athletic human combat speed rating for now), but should realistically be Athletic Human in combat speed due to the fitness of officers]
  • Brown bear attacks a facing police officer before they could dodge
  • Dog attack speed feats (1, 2, 3; actual speed ratings may vary due to circumstances and that dogs regularly live with people)
• Bears
  • Brown bear attacks a facing police officer before they could dodge (Yes, this is the same link in the rushing police officers Athletic Human section)
  • Grizzly strikes Dee before he could react (Contextually athletic human considering the other feats brown bears have)
  • Grizzly Bear swats a gun out of a man's hand before it could pull the trigger, which was pointing it's gun at the bear. [Athletic Human combat and reaction speed]
  • Grizzlies can attack armed, close hunters before they could kill them despite being injured [log in the internet archive and borrow the book to see the feat on one of the 2 pages]
  • Grizzly overwhelms an adrenalized Barbara Chapman [Athletic Human]
  • Polar bear reacts to a lion pounce [9.8 m/s or Athletic Human combat and reaction speed; look at the 1st round of the matches]
• Tiger (warning, relies on ambushes, so these are the best feats I could find)
  • Can easily attack and pounce on normal people before they could get their guard up [Athletic Human at most]
  • Tiger attacks soldier in casual conditions before the latter could pull himself away from the cage [Athletic Human at most]

Peak Human

• African Buffalo dodges a point-blank crocodile attack [Peak Human Speed]
• Lion
  • Pounced on a trained gun and sword user [Peak Human since the lion is fighting a foe with swords and a pistol, which add on to the time to react by a slight amount]
  • Pounced on a police officer off his horse before he could shoot his rifle
• Puma leaps onto an officer before she could draw her gun from a significant distance () [Peak Human considering the amount of speed to close the high distance much like the tiger pounce cases]

Superhuman

• Crocodile bites can snap their jaws in 50 ms [Superhuman Reaction Speed]
• Domestic Cats consistently tag each other before they could react [at least Superhuman Combat Speed; slow down the scan closely and you'll see a hit. However, we should note that they prefer to smack and grab each other rather than dodge]
• Tigers, Leopards, Chickens, and Cats can react to snake attacks [66-74 ms or Superhuman Speed]
• Horse kicks are up to 13 m/s in speed

Each of the big 3 (TB, Malaria, and HIV -> AIDS) impact real people and can get deadly. TB is surprisingly underacknowledged and underrated in it's threat like it should be.

And even then, would they set a bad precedent if they were on-site? We do have disease-based profiles.

I don't think indexing a disease on a VS site is any more controversial than it being indexed in any manner of website, medical book, etc. Nobody should get their ******* in a twist over dry facts, even in an unserious hobby such as ours, and if they do then that's their issue, not ours.
