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

and you totally aren't the one misrepresenting God of War by claiming Kratos can't scale to Thor despite their final fight says otherwise.
I don't want to butt into this debate, but does he actually believe that? Because as someone who's beaten Ragnarok more than twice over: I don't know how one can get through Kratos' first fight against Thor without hearing all of Thor's statements and how Kratos was acting that explicitly confirms Kratos was holding back. It was only when Thor mentioned that Odin had plans for Atreus did Kratos stop holding back in the end and knocked out his tooth.

And as you mentioned already, Kratos defeated Thor in their last fight when he wasn't holding back as much.

No, I do not now nor have I ever believe that
 
@The_Unknown_Warrior1 Yeah when Ragnarok came out, he kept bringing up the fact that because Thor killed Kratos in the beginning despite this being a Kratos who lost most of his magic and gear from Fimbulwinter that he can't scale to Thor's feats of affecting Yggdrasil (ignoring how Ragnarok gave like 5-7 extra other feats from Heimdall to Kratos himself affecting all the realm itself with their strength). You can check the GoW discussion thread back when Ragnarok came out if you want to see the details.

Huh.
 
@WeeklyBattles RWBY goes out of its way to show Aura is how the characters power levels are portrayed.
No, it isnt, at all. They literally say in the show and in the books that a person only has a set amount of and level of Aura and cannot get more without stuff like the Atlas aura-siphoning device. If Aura was the way they measured power, no one would be able to get any stronger, yet they do, because Aura is not the way they measure power in the show. Their physical stats are their own, independent of their Aura.
Tyrian vs RNGR and Qrow couldn't be more blatant than that when RNGR couldn't hurt Tyrian whatsoever and he slapped them around, then Qrow came in and did enough damage both of their auras broke and Ruby finally got a chance to cut his tail off due to his aura being gone despite him no selling hits from amped Nora.
Four City Block level characters fighting a Small City level character. Not sure why you think this is an argument
Riiiiight, and you totally aren't the one misrepresenting God of War by claiming Kratos can't scale to Thor despite their final fight says otherwise. Keep dreaming whatever you want, I'm not entertaining you any further than this since you won't actually bother backing up your claims with a proper downgrade.
Downgrade for what?
 
My 'arguments' are just me posting what happened in the manga. If you disagree with the story then i dont know what to tell you
You literally do not 'just post what happened' in the manga. If that was the case then you wouldn't have argued that Maka didn't block a single attack from Crona for pages before eventually admitting it, then going back and saying she didn't again. All in a series that has shown time and time again that if you block an attack from an enemy that's way stronger than you you still take damage.

If you 'just posted what happened' you wouldn't base your entire argument on why Maka isn't even a fraction of a percentage to her two teammates wouldn't be blown out of the water by the fact that to believe that you'd have to imagine Death The Kid was an idiot for letting someone as weak as Maka stay on the moon while he teleported every other Meister and Weapon out.

If you were 'just posting' you wouldn't argue that Chain Resonance is the only reason that Maka is able to fight on equal terms despite being so drastically weaker despite her doing more damage to Asura than Death the Kid did in the entire final fight, even with Kid being a full shinigami with a soul big enough to nearly cover the entire moon.

When did i claim she blocked attacks from Crona? She never did.

I do post just what happened, its the crux of my entire argument.

That is quite literally how Chain Resonance works.
 
ding ding ding

S1 has only like 113 chapters and Rwby has barely anything to offer in scaling
no shit it wasn't gonna be a long ass blog
You are aware that RWBY has a TON to offer in scaling right?

This is the full canon timeline for RWBY, minus Volume 9 Beyond and Volume 10 which hasnt come out yet
 
Yeah, it is totally understandable that they didn't use the Godzilla crossovers in the match against the Hulk; however, according to DB, the canonical Marvel Godzilla comics aren't canon because they say so. That's even more lame, IMO…
Thor Vs Godzilla is clearly non canon, that's the only one they mentioned.

Godzilla destroys the Marvel universe on the other hand, is the only one that's canon, and Gojo doesn't Hulk until October, so including it is worthless.
 
When did i claim she blocked attacks from Crona? She never did.

My brother in christ I don't know what else you could possibly think would cause a 'clang' sound effect from in a battle with metal weapons. We didn't 'claim' she blocked anything. She did. And this is now the second time you've denied it.

23083593_900_1350_215972.webp


How about this nice obvious 'whak' sound effect with visual effects near her hands along with action lines to show off her blocking the thorn strike? I'm only 'just posting what happened'
 
Crona throwing her away is not her blocking an attack.

Redirecting is also not blocking an attack

This one is notable, since Crona used the same attack to trow the Moon tooth at them.

Ye, the feat that would have outright killed her if BlackStar wasnt there, and which horrified Maka for how strong BlackStar would have had to be to perform said feat

dude none it changes the game nor offer anything beyond what we know its an ass beating to anyone but you
 
Ye, the feat that would have outright killed her if BlackStar wasnt there, and which horrified Maka for how strong Black★Star would have had to be to perform said feat
I mean yeah, Black★Star is stronger than her. I don't think anyone is denying that.

We saying she downscale to him tho for other reasons. Like blocking the attacks from Crona.
 
Crona throwing her away is not her blocking an attack.

Throwing her away with swords? That make a 'clang' sound? Dude, c'mon.
Redirecting is also not blocking an attack
...yeah? You have to make physical contact with it to redirect, and if Maka's durability was so much weaker and useless compared to Black Star's even redirecting the same kind of attack that gets into the teratons would rip Maka's arm clean off.

Literally everyone in the final arc is marveling at how much of a freak BlackStar is. Moonlight with the impossibility of catching lasers, Asura himself compliments BlackStar's strength in their fight. No-one is arguing that BlackStar isn't one of the highest showings of strength in the series. It's not like he even deflected those hits for her. It's clearly shown in the scan Maka's doing that herself.

You dont, thats why its 'redirecting', not 'blocking'.

So we're now ignoring all of the scenes in the fight where he did just straight up deflect the hits for her?
 
hell yeah someone else pumped for Firefly vs Samus. Loved the idea of the fight despite it probably never getting a proper episode. Guy feeling has me thinking that Samus would probably win by pulling out something from her decades of material, but Hoyo hax can get kinda nutty too. Especially since the Honkai series gets real wacky with stuff.
Who knows be nice to get info on another series stats
 

Christ on a cracker dude, that is not how anything works.
You dont, thats why its 'redirecting', not 'blocking'.

Do you even know physics? If I try to reach out and push against a train going 300 miles an hour my damn arm is going off. Let alone trying that with a hundred teratons of force.
So we're now ignoring all of the scenes in the fight where he did just straight up deflect the hits for her?
My guy I was arguing about the single panel in the page I showed you. Address the point being made or address why you were just shown to lie about your scaling for Kratos and Thor. Pick a fight.
 
Also just realized the G1 blog was probably that short because they referenced Maddie's blog up there at the beginning, so I imagine they were using that for the basis of their own analysis and basically agreed with what they put as well.
