This is Varia Suit Samus being used here, speed is equalized and the fight takes place in an unpopulated version of Insomniac Games' New York City.

It's been a while since the last thread, but we got all the feats approved and so we can finally start applying the downgrades that happened a few months ago. In this thread we'll be replacing basically every feat, and then in the next one we'll do Samus' updated P&A- to then finish things with...
Ship Travel Speed
Metroid characters currently get their MFTL+ ratings from ships' capacity to travel across intergalactic distances, thanks to Samus' Speed Booster being capable of significantly amplifying the speed of one (Feat has the same context as the Ice Beam/Power Bomb ones so, judge for...
Was originally going to be just one thread but it got a bit long so I had to split it. After the next one there's going to be no more downgrades, probably. Gonna be tackling a few feats from the Metroid mangas today.

Samus Aran's profile claims that "The Ice Beam can...
The Topic
Currently, many of the Metroid franchise's feats hinge on the planet of Zebes being treated as having gravity roughly 960 times stronger than Earth's [It's actually something like 953x but I'm gonna say 960x because it's close enough]. The reasoning for this is more or less...
The purpose of this thread is to reinstate a low 4-C feat, primarily for some of the top-tiers in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. It's important to mention the context, but I think Armorchompy's original downgrade thread does an excellent job of that, even if I disagree with his conclusions.
I agreed...
This is a thread addressing Dark Samus' profile and its various inaccuracies. It's a bit longer than I would like it to be, but I didn't want to split it, given I've been making a lot of Metroid threads already. Please try to remain civil in discussing it.
Feats (Leviathan, Phaaze and Travel...
Having finished researching the Metroid Prime Trilogy (emphasis on Trilogy- I haven't finished Hunters yet, though that is what I'm currently working on), I think this is a good time to update the profiles' P&A sections. I will not be revising Samus, Metroids, Space Pirates and Ridley, because...
The primary purpose of this thread is to debunk a feat that is currently the basis for the Metroid series' Low 4-C ratings, which is characters scaling to the Light of Aether, an energy that supposedly is equal to the planet Aether's Mass-energy conversion. The way in which the characters scale...
Both of them are 7-C, Speed is Equalized, Peter has the Spider-Carnage Suit and the fight takes place in the space station that Samus is on during Metroid Fusion.

Okay, so Samus, SA-X and Dark Samus' Profiles all mention the fact that they have access to Rage Power which can amp them up to five times their normal level of strength, so why isn't this amp mentioned in their stats section as well? Seems like a pretty significant buff to go under the radar...
Nothing new per say, but we really should mention the fact she took a country/continent sized literal nuclear blast, explicitly rising from the center of it.
With zero adverse effects.
That's of course some good radiation res, as well as good heat res. As the center of nuclear blasts can reach...
Currently, Samus Aran is rated as Massively Hypersonic+ in Zero Suit | Power / Fusion Suits | Varia Suit keys. However, the calculation linked on her profile says she is Mach 310.32 or Massively Hypersonic, so this should likely be fixed. Also, anyone who scales to MHS+ should be changed unless...
I'm kind of shocked these two don't have a conclusive match against one another. Two blonde haired women who were given great power through the mixture of alien DNA, and who now routinely protect the Earth from extraterrestrial threats.
Both cross paths on an abandoned/dead planet (let's say...
I probably should have brought this up in the last thread I made on Dark Samus, since it involves the regen, but it kinda slipped my mind.
To clarify, this isn't about the actual regeneration, more how viable it is in a standard vs setting.
Essentially, Dark Samus could survive the events of...
