The correlation exists, actually
Since nothing changes the fact he has dealt with flying fellas before and if he tries to fly directly to Bob he'll just get beaten due to the LS gap
Experience doesn't help against John here. John may be less skilled but evens out that field massively with significantly more abilities than the one trick ponies Bob has combatted for years
John may have many tricks up his sleeve, but Bob is
years more experient and we don't know every single guy he fought
Not only that, but John has shown that he is not the most strategical user of his powers, many many times relying solely on one or 2 of his powers iirc, so calling John predictable isn't farfetched
He'd have to figure out Homelander's weakness to sound
I brought up 2 possible scenarios on how that would go, either by throwing s* and noticing it or by using thunderclaps and noticing it
he can still resist sound waves to an extent as seen when he and Ryan were blasted with them from miles away.
Sound's potency diminishes heavily with increased distance, and John's problem is that Bob is close to him, so this argument ain't much, sorry.
Self-BFR?
That'd make the lasers easier to predict which can make debris for bob to use
or simply home in on Bob to stop him from creating shockwaves.
As i've said, if John home-in's Bob can exert LS and just stop John on his tracks, subsequentially throwing him on the floor or beating his head on it or something alike
Or just heat vision lowk.
Bob has dealt with heat vision and even had a friend who used it, so it is not unimaginable to say he'd be able to deal with John's attempt to laser him to death
Specially considering John, again, not being the beeeeeeest user of his powers to ever exist
Homelander would simply power through his attempts to use heavy frequencies to disable him, this is seen multiple times in The Boys.
Bob may seem resourceless but he actually can do a lot and his experience(s) would help him simply getting through John's attempts to "power through his attempts of taking him down"
I don't see Stealth ending up being a thing in this battle since they are in a skyscraper anyway so it means as much as it matters, honestly
Homelander can force Bob to let him go by ramming him through walls shakimg him off via flight.
The LS gap between them is of one tier, since they upscale heavily from the indexed values... So John can't fly if he's restrained, 100%.
Using sound waves against Homelander only irritates and temporarily incacipates him.
John being psychologically weak is also something that won't escape Bob's experienced eyes, mate!
If it
ever gives him an opportunity against John, Bob will use it and his LS will help John get GGd
How I see it'll go if he tries;
- Bob figures out John's weakness.
- He starts spamming thunderclaps to disable John
- John gets very angry and either; Flies and Homes down Mr Incredibles slamming him into walls to stop him or angrily fires his heat vision in hopes of stopping him, in that scenario, Bob dies because the Heat And AP cuts through him like butter. Voting John
- He can do more than just spamming Thunderclaps as he knows just trying the same thing can give his opponent an opportunity to counter and Bob haven't forgotten he's in the top of a skyscraper lol;
- As i've said before, Homing-in doesn't work because of the large LS gap
- John's never used heat vision in an unpredictable way, basically, so he won't be "just cutting" Bob ever lol
John does not have what it takes to win against Robert "Mr. Incredible" Parr, i guarantee ya
