Cuphead, despite being a verse that's fairly commonly used in matches, isn't in the best condition page-wise right now. As an example, Cuphead is Below Average Human, Subsonic by the endgame (with no justification for the latter), but The Devil is Transonic, with, again, no justification. One of our calculations presumes Cuphead is one meter tall, the other calculates him at about 75 cm. And they haven't been updated for the DLC. I'm here to hopefully rectify all that.
Er, spoilers for both Cuphead and The Delicious Last Course, latter is still fairly new so, I thought I'd put this out here. Isn't it ****** that Cuphead is over half a decade old now? Isn't it ****** that Undertale is almost a decade old now? Isn't it ****** that the Nintendo DS can drink in most countries now? Isn't-
Now, here's the big boy upgrade. A calculation of Glumstone the Giant's GPE yields Low 7-B results, which is... a big jump, I don't deny that. I've explained the calculation's logic in the blog but to summarize, there's several things that confirm Glumstone is actually mountain-sized rather than just mountain-shaped. Cuphead/Mugman/Chalice defeat him, so the scaling is obvious. Granted, the finishing blow is dealt from the inside, but to get there you have to inflict harm to him (he has a black eye and briefly faints after phase 1), and him swallowing you is an offensive move on his part, not some attempt from the bros to find a way to kill him.
Again, it's a big jump, and I understand if that raises some suspicion, but there aren't really many anti-feats in Cuphead, given that it's all gameplay, and almost all against bosses. I wouldn't really call it a supporting feat, but there is the feat of Saltbaker destroying the inside of his weirdly massive basement by growing big, and later the destruction of his "shell" obliterating the rest of his basement and everything in its vicinity. (Note that this is still happening in some underground given the aftermath is still contained under his bakery). Way above 9-A. Glumstone himself also has an 8-C-ish feat of crushing a huge slab of stone, and both Saltbaker and The Devil, while far from mountain-sized, will probably reach 100 meters of height or something like that. So if this is rejected,
there's backup.
EDIT: Calced those as a low end, 8-A
Anyways, that's all. Have a good day.

Powers and Abilities
All here, simple stuff. Way too much to talk about in detail here, but all bosses have had their P&A redone. Nothing too crazy I think. At the bottom you can find P&A for Miss Chalice and Chef Saltbaker, who I plan to make profiles for. I don't have any current interest to do so for the other DLC bosses.Stats
Alright, so, here's a blog I made containing what should be all of the verse's calculations. First off, I recalculated Cuphead's size so that we could have a more uniform thing to calc things off of.Inkwell Isle I
Currently, early Cuphead is scaled off splitting Goopy Le Grande's tombstone in half. Not only is the method outdated (understandably, old calc), but it's his death animation, which means the feat is overtime. Thankfully, Goopy himself grants us another feat by tackling really fast, which is, in itself, 9-B. It's also a Subsonic speed feat, which is nice because it gives us something to rate the first key by.Inkwell Isle II/III
I just recalculated the current feat, changing a couple things. Still 9-A, little higher now, surprisingly, given that Cuphead is smaller. More interestingly, I have a calculation for his speed now, which grants pretty meaty results. There's also a flight speed calc, which is less important but nice to have.Inkwell Hell/The Delicious Last Course
The reason for the former scaling to the latter is that an NPC in the DLC considers the Devil to be a more powerful foe than any of the bosses on Inkwell Isle IV (this doesn't include Saltbaker, who he doesn't know the bros are going to fight).Now, here's the big boy upgrade. A calculation of Glumstone the Giant's GPE yields Low 7-B results, which is... a big jump, I don't deny that.
