Question about calc stacking

[KnyRaizn]

Hi, I wanted to ask a question about calc stacking, regarding the calculation of a character's KE. Let's say character A satisfies one of the standards for calculating his KE using speed, and we know that character A has a supersonic speed through upscaling from character B, who has that speed, through a calculation. Can this speed be used to calculate the KE? And if not, it can be used a direct calculation instead of character A for the KE? Or, if not, which speed should be used?

And also, for the speed statements, you necessarily need a timeframe, or something like "at the same speed as light" obviously not taking into account that it is hyperbolic, or things like "dodges lightning" "reacts to guns" etc. are fine.

Thanks.

If Character B's speed was determined through calcs it is calc stacking

Otherwise, I would reference this thread:

Are Stated Speeds/Timeframes For Characters Calc Stacking?

Can an example case be provided for that one?

For "speed of light" you dont need a timeframe, they would just be light speed. For "reacts to guns" I think you need a timeframe, though maybe can assume 1 meter and use that speed

What I mean is, for example, let's say a statement explicitly states that someone dodges a sound speed attack, directly implying that his speed is at least that level, does it count as stated speed or not?

Ah thats an edge case

Ive read a lot of the calc stack threads but Im not 100% sure how that is treated, I would have to ask or read them again, sorry. I think not knowing the distance they dodge it from / how much they move would be the issue.

That is a stated speed for the speed of the attack, but cannot be assumed for the speed of the dodge (which requires a calc).
