Irrelevant because he has no feats to justify either scaling, all he does is deflect a blast by hitting it at an angle which is not enough for scaling.
He very clearly does, and deflecting a blast from someone is absolutely enough for scaling. I’m pretty sure you’re the only person that thinks it isn’t.
Then why do you use Genos matching small beams as a supporting argument. What do you think you're proving if you don't agree that is enough for scaling to begin with. Are you just trying to make your argument seem better by tacking stuff on it? I don't understand the point of even bringing it up.
Now I’m convinced you’re not even paying attention, so let me simplify my argument for you.
Psykos is
High 6-A. Genos can clash with her attacks on more than one occasion, although he is stated to be weaker. Therefore, he would downscale to
6-A+.
You literally proved my point. You are using guess-work here. You THINK it sounds reasonable for Genos to only be a few times weaker when this is clearly not the case in the story. Genos is portrayed as completely over his depth and easily overpowered by a casual Psykos even when he uses all of his power. He can't compete with her at all. Deflecting a blast is not sufficient to scale, you clearly don't understand how inertia and directions work if you think otherwise.
Ironic that you’re claiming I’m using guesswork when you’re saying it’s reasonable for Genos to be 1,500x weaker than someone he can clash with and you’re assuming the meteor that Genos referred to is the
Low 6-B one. Genos not being able to compete with Psykos at all and being drastically overpowered is a blatant lie that contradicts what is directly shown in the manga.
If Genos was
Low 6-B, and he clashed with Psykos like he did
here, Psykos’ blast would’ve gone straight through and obliterated him. And no, Genos admitting that she overpowered him does not mean he doesn’t scale whatsoever. They blatantly clash for a moment before Psykos’ blast gets through (and it doesn’t even completely go through), which shows that Genos can downscale.
If he was
Low 6-B and attempted to deflect her blast (which was intended to kill Tatsumaki, since you’re trying to claim all of Psykos’ attacks that Genos blocked were casual) like
this, his blast would’ve been instantly overtaken and it would’ve had no effect.
If Genos was
Low 6-B and directly clashed with Psykos’ blasts
here, there wouldn’t be a clash. Her beams would’ve shot straight through Genos’.
No part of Genos’ feats point to him being
Low 6-B. Nothing points to him being
Low 6-B apart from you
assuming Genos meant the same meteor that would’ve destroyed City Z. Basic knowledge of how the Attack Potency system works should tell you that Genos cannot be
Low 6-B and do all of that.
Feats and statements alike prove that Genos is much weaker. "Chapter 132" seems to be a confusion with VIZ, it was Chapter 132 when it was originally being released online all those months ago. Genos does comment that he can't comprehend the scale of power Psykos is operating in and that her energy is immeasurable.
The True Spiral Incineration Cannon works like a drill to disperse the flat beam from Psykos, I would argue that even there it's not 100% scaling because the spiral beam works to disperse the beam by drilling into it. I agree it should be High 6-A on itself but it's not comparable in the slightest.
And that statement is directly contradicted by Genos clashing with her and deflecting her attacks.
Basic Logic is irrelevant when you prove to be completely inept at understanding basic science and how something with far less energy and weight than another thing can redirect its movement by altering its trajectory. Changing a thing's trajectory literally only requires the other thing having weight and being affected by gravity, its not required to have a matching AP at all.
Wow, ad hominem, very nice, I was waiting for that to happen. Also I love how you didn’t provide any evidence of something being deflected by something 1,500x weaker than itself, like I asked for you to do. Also since basic logic is irrelevant, your point from earlier where you said:
This is not a AoE Fallacy its basic logic, a small attack from Psykos can't replicate her High 6-A feat.
Is now invalid. Good job.
Proof is basic science. The attack has weight because Genos' beams are heated plasma which naturally has mass. Psykos' beams are also some kind of energy, and you will be shocked to learn that energy actually has mass. The only thing that doesn't have mass is ******* photons.
Okay but show me an actual example of something being deflected by something 1,500x weaker than it. Surely you should be capable of providing evidence of such a thing, if you think it’s so obvious, right?
Downscaling is a fallacy in 90% of the cases where people try to apply, Genos does nothing to justify a 6-A, you just want it cause it sounds nice.
And we’re doing appeal to motive now too! Ironic how you claim I’m using a fallacy when you’ve used two in the same response. I also see you’ve neglected to explain
why downscaling is a fallacy, and you’re just claiming that it is (similar to how you claim Genos was referring specifically to the
Low 6-B meteor, and how you claim deflecting something isn’t grounds for scaling, and how you claim things can deflect something 1,500x stronger than themselves without proving any of these claims).
