This is a stomp. Kaneki can't resist basically anything they have and his regen isn't good enough to survive either.
 
Judging by Dante's stats, he'll be a support fighter, as Kaneki has a 6.59x AP advantage. However, Dante has time dilation and could work well with Vergil, who will be close to Kaneki's AP, albeit inferior (Kaneki scales above his value).

However, I see the scenario as follows:

The brothers see their opponents outshine them and, working together, deal a fatal blow. However, Kaneki's AD and kakuja come into play, blitzing and one-shotting both of them.

In this case, their wincon is teleportation and BFR, but that's not quite their style.

Kaneki mid-high diff
 
These versions of the brothers don't have deconstruction.
I didn't say decon.

What exactly is it that Kaneki can't resist?
Time Manipulation (Can slow down time to almost seem like a Time Stop via Devil Trigger),
Spatial Manipulation (With Yamato)
BFR (with Portal Creation)
Teleportation (Can teleport either himself or his target into his range)
Non-Physical Interaction (Intangibility & Soul; Demons can see, touch and harm humans in their astral forms. Was able to see and touch Kat in her astral form. Can harm intangible beings)
 
Slows down time for a short period of time. Incidentally, this will be useless after transitioning to Kakuju.
And so?
BFR (with Portal Creation)
Never used in battle
👍
Yes, when they are in Limbo
 
Kaneki is forced to substract 7 once again for Arkenis reasons (still not a stomp, since some op hax are barely used)
 
Still happens which leaves him vulnerable if caught.
It's not a basic move, and Kaneki will simply recover from it. And if he increases his speed enough, it won't matter.
So he can cut Kaneki's kagune apart without having to worry about the ap diff.
This isn't the original Virgil. His Yamato allows for spatial breaches, but it's not a dura neg.
Why does being in Limbo matter?
Because the impact on the souls and the world of people occurs in Limbo, which they cannot get to themselves.
In that case, it's strange that you speak so confidently about the stomping 🤔

What reasons are we talking about? Arkenis is literally unfamiliar with the characters' abilities for this argument to be valid.

Time slowing and teleportation could help them kill him before he restrains them with kagune. Could they use that immediately?

Time dilation is Dante's ability, not Vergil's. He never uses it immediately due to his personality. He likes to be cheeky, taunt his opponents, and go all-out. Therefore, there's a high chance Kaneki will quickly destroy him with his skills, given the difference in AP.

How does he recover if they just attack in that moment and cut his head off?

Dimensional Cutting is still dura neg and the sword seems to have the ability to cut through anything, so besides the spatial stuff it'll still one shot.

How does this mean they don't have npi for souls?

Because the hax are pretty blatant.

given the difference in AP.
Why make a match where one character has a 12x diff (On Vergil) and a 79x (On Dante) diff in ap? Restrict Half-Kakuja because it makes this match heavily disadvantageous for the brothers.

Because Dante can't decapitate him with one blow and never starts with DT. He can dodge Vergil's attacks with skill and instinctive reactions. Plus, he can disarm both of them with LS.

This is a separate ability and isn't used like Dura Neg in combat. Dante himself withstood these attacks without falling apart.
Considering that Dura Neg isn't in your profile, you simply can't use it.

I didn't understand your question. Communicating through a translator is terrible. However, just in case, I'll say that their influence on the soul requires certain conditions to which they have no access.

As we've already established above, this isn't true. Dante doesn't use hax from the start, and teleportation will only improve their mobility, but Kaneki's heightened senses and instinctive reactions will prevent him from being caught off guard.

You just said it's a stomp and Kaneki has no chance. How does his kakuja change the situation if he enters this form during critical damage?

Kaneki doesn't dodge in character for most of his hostile fights and is fine with getting hit, especially once going into Kakuja.

Either the pages are outdated, which looks to be the case or you didn't see this.

I'm asking how them not being in Limbo means they can't touch souls.

Kaneki's heightened senses and instinctive reactions will prevent him from being caught off guard.
What senses? And idk how many times I've had to say this but it's bootleg instinctive action, humans do what Kaneki did in those examples. He's just running off his training, nothing preternatural/supernatural that Vergil or Dante can't deal with.

I don't like disadvantages in ap or dura is all.

Kaneki doesn't start in a kakuja and he never plays the tank role, trying to dodge attacks

Yes, you are right

Because they never affect souls in the real world. All this astral crap is only possible in Limbo, where they were usually forcibly dragged

Call me when trained people are capable of fighting with their eyes closed using only instinct and can see the space around them like sonar. You greatly underestimate Kaneki.
Vergil and Dante, on the other hand, haven't demonstrated such skill, and Dante is such a slacker, which is even reflected in his weaknesses.

If Virgil is still capable of harming him, it won't be by stomping

That's why I said once he goes into it Kakuja.

Still don't see how that means they can't interact with souls. Does Limbo just give people the power to interact with demons?

Kaneki has never seen the area as a sonar passively. And its something they train to do, all Ghouls can't do it. Shirazu needs to knock on the wall to perceive that way and Ayato also admits he's not as good as others with it and has to concentrate. If you're going to use this argument give an example of Kaneki doing it. Plenty of humans fight who are blind, you can google Pier Morten or just google blind martial artists. No one's underestimating, you're just wanking lmao.

When he enters the kakuja he will probably blitz both brothers

Neither person demonstrates good acrobatic skills, runs on walls, or does somersaults. Ayato isn't as good as Hinami, who can hear for miles, but he can still scan a building. Donato can sense vibrations in the air and dodge attacks from behind while jumping. If Kaneki is attacked while teleporting, he'll simply dodge.

Several people have addressed this feat in previous matches and explained how this isn’t impressive. So done arguing with you.

You were the only person with this feat. It was a match against Taiyo.

In any case, this is enough to recognize the teleportation behind your back and dodge the attack.

Do you still consider this a stomp, or will you vote?
 
Only Vergil can hurt Kaneki via Spatial Hax and even then Time Manip doesn't last long. You also have to assume Dante immediately uses Devil Mode when he really only does it when Vergil is in trouble or it is the only way to win - such as Vergil's boss battle. With the AP Diff, Kaneki is more likely to one shot him than with him being able to get it off
Regen + Immortality Type 2 + AP Diff means Kaneki can tank it and eventually close in
BFR (with Portal Creation)
Literally has never used this in character. Might as well bring up Memory Manip
Doesn't help him win
Harm doesn't mean instant death. Even in game, it takes some effort for them to destroy souls, and again if Kaneki hits once, its over for them.

Kaneki High Diff.
 
Not to mention that Vergil can play defensively and only after time slop dissect Kaneki into pieces

by time stop i meant time slow
I'm planning to remove that ability and change it to a speed amp. There's nothing proving that it's a time slow as far as I can tell. Also gonna downgrade their regeneration to Mid-Low or High-Low.

It's kinda weird that Vergil simultaneously amps his speed as well, whenever Dante uses that ability. Also assuming it's speed amp - it's quite weird that only Dante can do this at his will, but Vergil can't use it otherwise and gets speed boosted automatically

Looks like it last pretty long. And when they realize "shit this monster is stronger than us" Dante does devil trigger. Also you're forgetting Kaneki already is at a one shot diff against Dante, why would he not do DT?

He's not regenerating his head. He almost died from being stabbed in the head. How do you tank spatial cutting?

Read what I said next time so you don't make pointless responses.
Kaneki can't resist basically anything they have and his regen isn't good enough to survive either.

That's in the game, Kaneki has no soul resistance or survivability feats from having his soul damaged lol.


Also for some reason you guys seem to forget this match is not Kaneki starting out in his Kakuja, it's base Kaneki fighting at the beginning and far as he knows, Dante and Vergil are humans, he will be hesitant to outright kill humans just cause they're hostile. Since this is base Kaneki at the start, Vergil's sword can easily kill.

Oh right, I forgot that Vergil's DT doesn't work the same. His enemies don't get slowed down like Dante's so it can't be a speed amp they both have.
