    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Weekly uhh...no? It doesn't suggest that at all. It suggests that the Diamonds do not consider her a true Garnet, and so they are not the same. At no point was it implied that Garnet was considered too weak by the Diamonds to qualify as a Garnet, they were simply being rigid in their...

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Weekly not the same kind of Garnet, and unless the creators also stated they could survive in the sun than not as good of heat resistance feats.
  3. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Weekly than why was that brought up? Garnet isn't a Homeworld Gem, so she won't be in the fight.

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Weekly And Lapis was not falling apart, nor would I call her liquid manipulation a physical ability precisely. Something else I'm wondering about is that you said that Garnet's future vision works differently than a Sapphire's, if that is the case then wouldn't her resistance to heat also be...

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Weekly and yet she still hasn't shown the ability to manipulate liquids inside of a creature. Since we didn't see her actually gathering up all the water we don't know how much effort it took, other then that it took some time. We also don't know how much having a cracked gem affected her...

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Weekly Unless one of the creators said something I'm not aware of or unless one of the games or comics has it, it hasn't been established that Lapis Lazulis can control liquids inside of creatures. And another thing, if I remember correctly didn't it take Lapis at least several hours to gather...

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    I've been doing some thinking about Lapis Lazulis, and apparently some of the larger Tyranid ships consume the atmospheres and/or oceans of entire planets, so assuming the world they are fighting on has any water they may be able to just literally eat it. Something which doesn't seem to have...

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Weekly that demonstrates that the future can be changed, meaning she can't actually see the future, only the most likely outcome. It's basically the only Sapphire we have to compare, as we don't see any others besides Padparadcha (I think that's how you spell it), and she's an Off Color. I'm...

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Weekly when Sapphire said to Blue Diamond that Rose would be defeated after she (Sapphire) was poofed, but then Ruby stopped her from being poofed and Rose escaped. Where was it stated that Garnet's future vision works differently?
  10. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Cinnabar wouldn't that suggest that Gems have to have a vehicle that is calibrated for them in order to travel faster than light, as doing so otherwise does mess up their bodies? @Weekly you mean the same precognitive abilities that were wrong about Rose Quartz being defeated, were wrong about...
  11. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    If we're voting now, I vote Tyranids because of numbers, intelligence, adaptability and for the other reasons above.
  12. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Weekly light is a form of energy. I don't know how Tyranids energy manipulation works, but if it does work on types of energy other than life it should work on Gems (unless it specifically does not work on light). @Cinnabar they can use biomass from dead Tyranids.
  13. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Weekly you're referring to the Diamond ships, correct? They only have 4 of those. It seems you and me have completely different opinions of how much numbers matter, and I'm not sure either of us will be convincing the other otherwise. I still have other reasons for thinking Tyranids will win...
  14. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    Weekly Okay, then how is it that these White Lights didn't wipe out all of the Crystal Gems? What about the Bio-Ships, which Tyranids should have significantly more of than there are Gems, let alone White Lights? Edit: Okay, now that it's several hundred meters and not planetary it makes more...
  15. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Weekly how large? Because it's going to have to be pretty large to kill millions with each shot, and once again there should be far more than a million Tyranids for every White Light. What did the White Light fodderize?
  16. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Weekly simply being more powerful than something doesn't mean you can beat a bunch of them. A million ants could kill a human just fine. All I know is that according to their entry in the Tyranids profile Bio-Titans are possibly high 6-A. There's also the Bio-Ships, which are marked as High...
  17. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    As far as I am aware Tyranids are all extensions of the hive mind, it thinks for them and directs them. I simply do not agree that a White Light will be able to kill a million Tyranids, and a million is a generous number since Gems aren't all focused on combat and there likely aren't nearly as...
  18. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    A million Tyranids will kill a White Light, and even if they couldn't Tyranids have creatures such as Bio-Titans. When I said fodder I was referring to the near-endless legions of Tyranids they can send at the Tomes and Gem weapons to test their capabilities, not that the Gems were fodder.
  19. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    I'm...not sure you realize just how big a number quintillions is. Also, hive mind, the Tyranids will quickly learn and adapt to whatever strategies the Gems use, and given how many of them there are they have plenty of fodder to experiment with.
  20. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    If speed is equalized I'm thinking Tyranids due to the reasons I stated earlier, those being greater intelligence, greater numbers and greater adaptability (something which Gems, especially ones from Homeworld, often seem to lack). I was just looking through the profiles, and I'm honestly not...
  21. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Cinnabar Fair enough. I'm going to be getting off for tonight, see everyone later.
  22. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Cinnabar isn't heat damage different from blunt force? Also, was it the surface of the sun or the core?
  23. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @The Wright Way true, but I still think I should probably leave it to someone at least somewhat familiar with the source material. The most experience I've had with Tyranids was in a mod for a video game.
  24. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    Then I guess I'm done for now, as I don't really know what else to say. All I can do is talk about what I've seen in the show, and what I've seen hasn't given me a particularly good impression of Gem durability. I will wait for someone else who knows Tyranids better to argue for them.
  25. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    Pretty sure she was then cracked by someone stepping on her.
  26. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Cinnabar Yes, but that was my point. They can launch ships at intergalactic ranges like the Gems can launch probes at intergalactic ranges.
  27. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    ...Garfield is FTL?...God dang it. @The Wright Way And it does exist. Because the show creators don't care about vs battles or outliers. I suppose it is an outlier, however in the end it's somewhat of a moot point as the gemstones of the Gems themselves don't seem to share their durability, as...
  28. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    I don't know enough about either Tyranids or Gems to have a major argument either way. I'm simply arguing based on what I've heard here. Perhaps someone with more knowledge on the Tyranids could defend them better, I suppose I shall retract my vote for now. Edit: @Weekly isn't that something...
  29. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Weekly Doesn't change her reacting to Pearl's attack. @Cinnibar So...Sadie is relativistic then. Sorry, I have a hard time believing a human child and an out of shape donut store worker can move and react at relativistic speeds. @The Wright Way Gems don't generally seem to have much of a...
  30. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Cinnabar unless Connie and Sadie are relativistic... Edit: In reply to your last point, I was unaware that Gems have a habit of atomizing their enemies until nothing is left. When does this happen, exactly?
  31. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Weekly considering that Gems can often be seen by regular humans, and humans such as Sadie and Connie occasionally fight with them (and I'm not referring to training, I'm referring to when White Diamond was controlling Pearl and attacked Connie), I'm guessing the Tyranids will be able to handle...
  32. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    Also, the fact that a Corrupted Gem got poofed by a pointy stick doesn't exactly bode well for their durability against sharp things. They can take explosions and reentry heat just fine, but sharp things seem to be a problem.
  33. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    I do realize that they are usually the same, just wanted to clarify that they aren't always the same. Speed wasn't what convinced me to vote for the Tyranids, it was the combination of greater numbers, greater intelligence (I'm assuming a hive mind that controls at minimum billions of creatures...
  34. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Weekly once again, not necessarily referring to Gems specifically, just reaction speed and combat speed in general. From what you've said Gems do have relativistic combat feats. @Cinnabar regardless, seeing something coming does qualify as reacting to that thing, as you perceive it and your...
  35. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    I was referring to Feats based on reacting while in a ship. Yes, you still have to be able to move the controls fairly fast (the snail thing was just an example, not meant to be the same as this situation exactly), but it doesn't need to be nearly as fast. Reacting to something doesn't mean you...
  36. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    @Weekly fair enough, simply stating that reaction speed doesn't directly translate to combat speed. @Cinnabar That is incorrect. If you can react at light speed but you move your body at the speed of a snail a human can hit you just fine even without moving at light speed. You still have to...
  37. Enderdragon1201

    Tyranids Vs Gem Empire

    Unless Gems are proven to move their bodies at relativistic speeds during combat (no, flight speed for Lapis doesn't count, it's harder to move in a fight than traveling in a mostly straight line through space with no air resistance to worry about) it doesn't matter if they have relativistic...

    In regards to number 1: 1) Azathoth doesn't contain the multiverse within his dream. [They danced insanely to the high, thin whining Of a cracked flute clutched in a monstrous paw, Whence flow the aimless waves whose chance combining Gives each frail cosmos its eternal law."] That doesn't...
