Thunder McQueen:

 

[Choinoi]

Aight so the way I see it, Byakuya: higher AP and maneuverability better range Nito: more hax more intelligent and more stamina Nito's resistances are excellent and pretty sure death works on anything (that's not resistant) Byakuyas spell casting is less effective but a dome of petals could wreak Nito As long as Byakuya deals with Nito's miasma I think Byakuya has a decent win here.

 

[BakiHanma18]

Very niceƒæì

 

[XSOULOFCINDERX]

I mean his Miasma is like this massive explosion of Death, Poison, Magic, and Disease Manipulation all at once so i really doubt Byakuya's petals are surviving that. Plus he can summon a huge army of skeletons to distract him long enough to pull some sneaky shit. Like plunging his sword in the ground to stab him from range.

Byakuya can fly, so ground sword won't work, and just with his Shikai release, he can summon 5-10 thousand+ petals to annihilate the skeleton army. The Miasma can also be blocked with Danku, but Unnamed Barrier may or may not work in this instance (someone comparable has used the technique to block a Miasma with almost the exact same effects, but the properties of the move may differ, as the technique was never named, only shown to look similar to Byakuya's)

 

[XSOULOFCINDERX]

Alright, I tried. Always gonna defend my Dark Souls Boys atleast once.

 

[XSOULOFCINDERX]

Also, you might want to check back up on Midir's thread. I had to change it to Fusion Godzilla.

[LSirLancelotDuLacl]

Skulli Boi is for sure not smarter than Byakuya, I have no clue why you'd think that.

Regardless, what is the AP difference here?

 

[BakiHanma18]

Byakuya scales to Kenpachi's feat against Gremmy, right here which is 10.6 Teratons of TNT

Nameless King is roughly 8 Teratons, but I'm not sure how Nito scales to the NK

 

[LSirLancelotDuLacl]

So either way, no big difference.

 

[BakiHanma18]

So either way, no big difference.

At most, there would be a 10x difference between them (Bankai provides a 5x-10x multiplier)

 

[LSirLancelotDuLacl]

I do believe we don't use the multiplier statement seriously.

Regardless, Bankai is gonna provide a good boost of power and is more or less a massive deluge of blades comparable to a sea of mini blades. And I also think Byakuya could defend from the miasma using a good enough barrier. Barragan's miasma is time acceleration that ages stuff, but it still had to wear down the barrier first. Plus, I don't think we've seen Nito's miasma work on inanimate things and energy.

Yep thats my bad, not sure how I came up with that one either.

True, I wasn't sure if Senbonzakura's petals could block the Miasma, but I suppose its entirely possible

 

[Kidkinsey]

good fight i have byakuya taking it mostly due to his flight ability, because if he had to get close that cloud of death poision and stuff would be fatal

 

[XSOULOFCINDERX]

Yeah, flight kind of ***** over every single character in Dark Souls that either doesn't fly or use ranged attacks.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Seeing as Nito's miasma has a range of several hundred meters and is basically invisible i dont see how flight will save him

 

[Kidkinsey]

its the combo of flight and byakuya is a good ranged fighter, like if this were kenpachi or ichigo who have to get close i think nito can take iit

Wait. That was it's range?! Good luck dodging that!

 

[BakiHanma18]

Byakuya has several barriers to protect him, one has been shown to be effective at blocking an attack almost identical to Nito's Miasma, and the other just flat-out negs all of Nito's spells

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Okay but the issue is that Byakuya will have no idea that anything is coming at him in order to know that he has to set up a barrier to defend himself. Nito's Miasma is invisible, he literally just raises his hand and stuff withers and dies

 

[XSOULOFCINDERX]

I kinda forgot his Miasma was invisible. My bad.

3 points, 1) It wouldn't matter because Senbonzakura would block the Miasma with more than enough time for Byakuya to neg it with Danku or shield himself further with Unnamed barrier. 2) His other Miasma is very clearly visible as a dark explosion, so that one won't be an issue. 3) Even if Senbonzakura couldn't block it, all the petals disintegrating in front of him would immediately alert Byakuya of the situation and the barriers would be erected

 

[Dat_Dot]

It seems people forgot Byakuya should logically scales to Kenpachi who scales to six clones Gremmy (37.1 teratons) since he can fight toe to toe with Gerard...

And people seems forgot bleach character can literally see invisible objects that invisible to already invisible spiritual beings in Bleach...

Would that even matter? Again Senbonzakura's blockin all the Miasma

I'm only pointing out Byakuya has the AP advantage and probably can see the miasma since even Ichigo could see invisible objects that invisible to already invisible spirits. But eh, whatever.

Right, I just didn't want there to be any arguments that the only invisible objects Bleach characters can see are spirit. You are right, but the shield is up regardless

 

[LSirLancelotDuLacl]

Invisible people in bleach would be invisible due to powers. The miasma is invisible because there's literally nothing to see - no ominous fog of death or anything like that.

I thought so, in that case, the barrier thing still stands

 

[BakiHanma18]

[Kidkinsey]

yeah i wouldnt equate bleach souls being invisible to humans to an attack that is literally invisible

What does byakuya start with?

 

[BakiHanma18]

What does byakuya start with?

In later arcs, he usually starts with Shikai and moves to Bankai if the situation requires it.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Okay so reading through what his shikai and bankai do why exactly would they make for viable barriers against nito's miasma? They don't make a true barrier, just a wall of millions of tiny blades that block attacks but that wouldn't exactly offer much protection against what amounts to an intangible force
