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

DB is so weird with stats, even if they tend to use high-end stuff, they usually dont use the highest stuff like sun disk lol

In fact, since GR didnt get specific details of his high-end stuff, its possible Hulk will be "lowballed" as well.
they scaled GR to Mephisto and Galactus who has (or is at least tied for) the highest stats they've given to Marvel which is probably the highest you can reasonably scale him anyway

Yeah, and that didnt seem to help beat Spawn's hax. If they use Ultima and he isnt a fraud, it might be repeat.

Would they make Hulk more haxed than GR?

but we were talking about stats unless "high-end stuff" meant hax.

I don't think they'd give him more hax but maybe more resistances

Yeah, Im thinking both factors could have issues for Hulk, that DB downplays Hulk to not be Outer and that regardless of his AP, it might not affect Ultima well.
 
I think it would be amusing if Ultima wasn't used whatsoever and just a blackbox commented on why he doesn't count or something.

I honestly would have to read the novel to have thoughts on Ultima. I only watched 2 episodes of the anime also... but lost track of it.

Ngl, there is a weird feeling of satisfaction with being one of the few people who can actually make statements about a character and nobody can really contradict you cause they don’t know enough. While it obviously gives people the chance to just make up whatever they want like with Demonbane or that one DMC mobile game, it makes you feel like an ancient storyteller sharing knowledge over the campfire.

This must be what the ancient Greeks felt whenever they shared tales about the Greek gods with non Greeks.

One of these days more people will be interested in Death from HAND. All that effort I went through to make that Respect Thread has to be good for something.
With DMC you guys mean the whole forged evidence that was used, right? Yeh... that was something, especially with how much effort went into faking vids and everything. It went way beyond "I swear this game totally says this and that, my man".

Demonbane, from what I recall, at least got a proper revision and actually ended up being Tier 1 on its own merits and cosmology. Though the pages were never applied strangely enough.
 
I can't say my full tohughts on ultima given im not some Godzilla guru like you guys are concept wise ultima seems interesting to have an eldritch abomination of Big G but execution seems very flawed especially with the mathematics slop
Basically yeah, the entirety of singular point is a university lecture in theoretical physics. I’m not kidding when I say most of the dialogue is technobabble exposition. Godzilla is barely in it, I know people say that he’s barely in the movies, but his screentime is incredibly low in this. I did the math and it’s an equivalent of being in a 2 hour movie for 2 minutes.
 
By all accounts Ultima shouldnt be used, even with composite rules its weird, and tbh if its going to be used is because otherewise Goji just loses.

Its a massive advantage for characters to not have a main versions for themselves. Scooby-Doo is allowed to get weird but Transformers aka Megatron got ****** cause G1 Cartoon was deemed as main continuity and therefore no funny Japan stuff for him.

Goji having eras like TMNT and Zelda generally makes it so that Ultima is used I feel like.
 
I think the Ultima body that looks like Godzilla is fine to use but it and the other Red Dust creatures are avatars of IT (hyperspatial "true form") who doesn't really have an actual appearance that we see and is only really expounded upon in the novel
 
Out of the dozens of Godzilla incarnations, are Ultima and Marvel Comics Goji really the only ones that stand a chance?
There's a bunch of other lesser known crossover versions like the MTG Goji or Super Robot Wars Goji but Marvel Goji is an absolute monster in terms of scaling while Ultima gives insane hax.
 
What's the minimum dimensionality (4D-20D, for example) for them to say a character is Outer? Or does dimensionality not work that way?
Outerversal isn't tied to dimensionality. afaik, it's transcending a world in a qualitative way to such a degree that no amount of material energy can reach quantitatively unless the character is a conduit for energy that can operate on that scale. to that end, DB has never actually used the term but has arguably come close to it with Simon and Kyle's R>F statements but I'm not sure if their interpretations meet the standards for outer set here

I could have sworn R>F was seen as Outer at one point 🤔

no it is but there are some pretty strict qualifications for it. the reason I'm not sure if DB's Simon and Kyle qualify is because they don't really do it in a qualitative way I think? like first, the verse itself needs to have some outerversal component to it but currently Gurren Lagann doesn't on this site and Kyle only scales to multiversal but his profile appears outdated and the ongoing DC cosmology revisions seem like they might make Godsphere 1-A, so it would be a matter of him scaling to that

The eras are strictly for the movies, and only the movies. Comics and games? A whole different issue. Ultima is also part of the Reiwa era. There is genuinely no reason to excuse him not being used (specially after Ben did talked a lot about him in the DB Cast episode).

Even if his true form is divorced from the fight, so should have Darkseid's Godhead but they still have it to him and that also gave him the w
 
So any "civilization mus" you guys like?

Like Borg vs Cybermen or Galactic Empire vs Imperium of Man
Covenant vs Super Earth

Super Earth vs the Combine

Anything with Super Earth tbh. I would even take Super Earth vs the UNSC, or the Imperium. They actually have a lot of wacky feats and technological achievements

Yeah, SP is probaly more significant if its worthy enough to be in Reiwa era. Tho regardless of this, the problem is, arent most Reiwa films not canon to themselves? Shin, SP & Minus One are separate canons. It shouldnt be issue for DB tho.
 
Ultima is so far removed from the bog standard zilla that I feel it would be weird NOT to exclude him. If they didn’t give Alucard his Schrodinger abilities because “they don’t mesh with his standard stuff” then I don’t see a reason for this either.

Yeah, so are the Millennium movies with the exception of the Kiryu duology. Godzilla doesn't really have a main canon.

The same can be said for iterations like GMK, Rozan, or even Earth, which are way different than the standard Godzilla. Ultima is literally Godzilla at a higher dimension. I don't see why they would not take an legal iteration of the character into consideration because "too different" excuses.
 
My thing is how the **** you even utilize Ultima in the fight?
It be weird to have each version transform into the other especially into Ultima
 
I could see them including the anime version of singular point and ignoring the novelization due to the rule that all material is used unless something disagrees with the primary material, simply because having someone translate the entire novelization would be a big investment, and actually understanding the entire thing (when, from what I read, the author’s other works are themselves pretty inscrutable to native Japanese speakers) would also just be a lot of effort. Unless they go the route of “actually we’re going to just machine translate the entire thing, and hand-translate the passages which might have uberduper powerful purple prose” which the Reddit people are doing.

the Ultima body (the one on the SP poster) seems feasible enough but the extra-dimensional entity it comes from, IT, has no actual screen appearance and basically all of its information is from the untranslated novel that a lot of people still have differing interpretations over

Is the whole "Ultima being every single Godzilla combined in the novel" thing fake? If not, then I think him transforming into it would be ok, if it is bs, then I legit don't know

I agree, but it would be really funny if after all this time hyping up Ultima for it to just go like:

It's fake. Ultima is every Godzilla within what Singular Point has explored (like the Godzilla skeleton we see). Every other Godzilla is distinct.
