A genius faces a ninja: Bakugou versus Katsuragi!

[Mand21]

Katsuki Bakugou has one day to prepare and prior knowledge of Katsuragi's abilities. She has no time to prepare. Bakugou chooses the arena, so it's wherever it's best suited for the usage of his powers. Speed equalized.

Katsuki Bakugou's power scales either to 0.6 tons or 0.8 tons, I don't remember, but Katsuragi's scales to this 4 tons feat. This means she is no less than five times stronger. Bakugou has thus all that time to prepare, use his best strategy and equipments and choose a good scenario to try to overcome that.

Should it get too confusing or, worse, stompy, I'll remove the scenery part.


Time to give her a blast.


We brazillians have a slang/slur that translates directly to "big shoe", which suits Katsuragi well in both the literal and figurative senses.

How on Earth do you actually state the AP knowing the gap and then proceed to make a match?

My god the spite.

 

[Huesito88]

Stomp

 

[Schnee_One]

Literally the most obvious stomp in existence and I'm 90% sure that's intentional.

 

[Mand21]

How is it necessarily a stomp? I gave Bakugou that huge an edge and he has that "Higher" on his strongerst explosions, techniques that give him piercing capacity, aerial mobility and two opportunities to shoot attacks iwth his maximum potency without injuring himself.

Plus, he's a genius on using his quirk.

 

[Huesito88]

Wait speed isn't equalized......

 

[Schnee_One]

You said it yourself within your own post.

"'Scales eithero to 0.6 or 0.8"

"Katsuragi's scales to this 4 tons feat"

Do you math?

 

[Arrogant_Schmuck]

Much as I wish I could say Bakugo blasts her fookin' head off and saves her teammates from torment... yeah this is a stomp of the highest caliber, and not for the character I wish it was.

 

[Mand21]

I forgot to equalize the speed. Now it's equalized.

And a five times difference (6.7x if we give Bakugou his lower end) is basically the baseline needed for an AP stomp. Even then, that's disregarding anything else. If a character has a means of overcoming this disadvantage, it can be reverted.

 

[Schnee_One]

And since Bakugo has absolutely nothing to compensate, that point is moot and this is a stomp

 

[Mand21]

He has attacks that are notably stronger than his base, can use them a few times (two without getting damage, probably at least four at his peak) and may even abuse his quirk to throw in everything he's got in one blow (explosions at max power from both hands and gauntlets, giving him a four times AP boost, and concentrate them on a smaller area).

He ca fight Katsuragi. It'lll just be extremely difficult.

And of course, there's the part where he chooses the arena. No one has yet even suggested what arena would most benefit him.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

Bakugo cant harm her let alone incapacitate her

this is a stomp

 

[Mand21]

what did I just say

A difference of some times isn't enough to nullify all damage.

 

[Arrogant_Schmuck]

 

[Schnee_One]

Legit all that actually compensates the AP how? XD

 

[Mand21]

Um... didn't I... explain it?

._.

 

[Schnee_One]

Yeah

The logic makes no sense

You act as if intelligence makes you punch harder.

 

[CursedGentleman]

She is able to one shot dude,mismatch or stomp or whatever they call it, this can't be added

 

[Mand21]

I don't. I literally gave him tricks to surpass his own limitations, and ways he could increase his AP or at least damage per AP. That, stacked on top of his intelligence, would allow him to put up a fight.

 

[ShrekAlmighty]

Didnt know Bakugou was a ninja.

 

[Huesito88]

He's talking about Katsuragi

 

[PTSOXMONKEY99]

Let me put it like this:

I'm definitely smarter than I gorilla, no questions asked, but you'd never catch me trying to fight one (unless I had brass knuckles and riot gear)

Bakougo is literally 6.7-5 times weaker here, and Katsuragi can further amp her strength with Frantic Mode. No amount of intelligence is gonna save Lord Explosion Murder here from getting one shot.

 

[Schnee_One]

One of the smartest MHA supporters calling this a stomp

Does that not say enough?

 

[Mand21]

Which one?

Actually, since Kat can one-shot, using frantic mode would be terribly bad for her, since it would take her durability advantage away and allow Bakugou to cause damage. Being able to one-shot by the minimal amount (5x is the baseline for AP stomp on the site) makes so that sacrificing durability for more AP is counterproductive.

But yeah, okay, I give in. =/ That's sad.The 8-B characters would stomp Kat, the 8-C would get stomped. There aren't any High 8-C people in BNHA by now? >.>

 

[CursedGentleman]

Not really High 8-C, but i dont think she wins against him

 

[Arrogant_Schmuck]

There aren't any High 8-C people in BNHA by now? >.>

But use someone other than Kat. She's the worst

 

[Mand21]

What do you mean with she being the worst?

 

[PTSOXMONKEY99]

He means she's a friggen P E R V

 

[Mand21]

I see.

Problem is Gran Torino's versatility is crap against Hanzo school kunoichi, making it even bigger of a stomp since he's baseline High 8-C (High 8-C through powerscaling) yet can't do anything else than flowmotion and melee attacks.
