Black Hat Downgrade

That is subjective here, like you said he is much weaker. A power up gives him the boost to be on the same level. But the clip shows he has some level of power in base after the training montage.
Even then that is still seconds away. The main argument is that he is completely different when powered up.

We don't see the Omnitrix destroyed lol, just on fire

Even then, why are you scaling post-training montage Pops to a no training Base Anti-Pops?

Flug uses fire to destroy Black Hat's DNA, which he claims is the most powerful and clearly superior to his own. Am I the only one who sees the contradiction here?

Adding onto this, if the previous argument is to be believed, there's no way to become as strong as Black Hat.
"The strongest DNA" would merely refer to whatever race Black Hat belongs to at a fundamental level, which wouldn't correlate to them at their maximum potential. Why would Flug ever give Vilgax something that could make him as strong as Black Hat anyways then?

Because before training he struggled to squeeze a lemon
after training he fights Base Anti-pops (who had no training)

So are we saying Mordecai is Low 2-C now because he harmed Base Anti-Pops?

We only see Flug setting the Omnitrix on fire, we don't see it being destroyed.
To be fair, as we discussed before (and in the end I agreed with you), those answers are dubious. And anyway, there are more adjectives in there besides "strong," like evil and big.

Still doesn't disprove the argument that it would be vastly out of Flug and Black Hat's interests to make Vilgax as strong as Black Hat and the fact that DNA only refers to the fundamentals argument.

When you express that something is the most powerful, especially if it is many times stronger than you, how can you use fire to destroy its DNA?
And also, I'm moving on from here:

That is also a conjecture supported by nothing. You would have to prove that Anti-Pops was infinitely weaker on that occasion.
Black Hat also threatened to burn Anti-Pops to ashes (in the subtitles it says "before I turn you to pieces" but originally he says "antes de que te haga cenizas").

you mean like how flug did in the scan at the literal start of the crt
He said that to him in base.
It's also very telling that you're changing the subject to an earlier argument because you have no answers for this one.
- 782
- 274
That doesn't prove that they aren't Low 2-C, it proves that they are weaker than their Titan forms.
So, let's recap.
- Black Hat's answers are dubious, so let's ignore them.
- The issue of "stronger DNA" is also dubious.
- Black Hat is at least superior to base Anti-Pops, given that he easily overpowered him. And Anti-Pops had a lot of respect for him to the point of kneeling before him and asking to be his apprentice. Black Hat also threatened to reduce Anti-Pops to ashes.
So, the only thing that seems to be left on the table to defend Black Hat's Low 2-C is the issue of the base forms of Pops and Anti-Pops and how much power they have compared to the Titan forms, which are the ones who perform the Low 2-C feat. The base forms are weaker than the Titan forms, but the base forms can still stop the power of the Titan forms for a few seconds, which would not be possible if they were infinitely weaker.
Do we have anything against that? if we can eliminate this argument then I will agree with the downgrade.

Yes.
Easy.
Flug states that because they are no longer in base, something that is as simple as being harmed by a sun is enough to kill them.
That's far below Low 2-C.

I'm going to quote this user's comment.
They could die from it simply because they have no heat resistance.
- 782
- 274
Also, there is something that seems strange to me. Why would Anti-Pops have so much respect for him to the point of kneeling and begging to be his apprentice, if supposedly transforming into his Titan form would be enough to destroy Black Hat?

Base Anti-Pops is also shown to struggle with a Space Deer and Mordecai as well.
It's really a large gap and scaling Base Pops to Titan Pops would cause massive scaling issues in-verse already.
I have already went over this and you can look up the previous arguments if you want to know my answer.

CRT seems pretty straight forward, I agree.
Although perhaps Black Hat could still scale to this universal Anti-Pops, albeit through his abilities, not his physical power. From the looks of things, he is treated as the most powerful CN villain, and it would be consistent going off what he already has with his Reality Warping, with his profile saying that he once created a multiverse contained in a book. It has been a while since I've looked into Villainous, so I'm not the best judge on that.

Yeah that isn't a power thing, they didn't see it coming and crashed. Still haven't shown a link to the Mordecai as well.
Edit: How so? This has no relations to regular show and doesn't cause a scaling issue between Base Pops and Titan Pops in Villainous is minimal. All we know of this verse it pretty much from this episode and random reoccurrences of the characters.
- 782
- 274
Link? I saw the episode and I don't remember anything like it.
It doesn't, they could still be Low 2-C, but a little weaker.
If you mean fear induction, that still doesn't explain why Anti-Pops would rather be a pussy who kneels at Black Hat's feet and receives his threats instead of just transforming into his Titan form and tearing him to pieces. Not to mention that the fact that he wants to be his apprentice shows that he respects him and sees him as someone superior.

Here. He was crushed by an arcade machine by Mordecai and he groaned.
Still portrays the other Regular Show characters as much weaker in the episode.
Mordecai can not destroy a universe.
Yeah. Fear Induction. Black Hat's Subjective Reality hax. Makes sense why he would be scared.
- 782
- 274
Why not?
I insist, why doesn't Anti-Pops transform into his Titan form and kill him?
Are you referring to the 2-B that BH has due to Creation and Subjective Reality?
Why would he be scared of something that does not serve to destroy anything, but is a power that only serves to create xd?

He's a regular guy who doesn't even hold a candle to the titan forms. This is how the story is portraying him and how it is shown.
Because he's too scared to? Because BH has vastly more hax? Because of his reputation? Nobody knows how powerful Black Hat is, but he carries himself with such a fearsome atmosphere and accomplishments that it feels like he's powerful enough to rip you apart with a glare.
- 782

I stress that this can still work like this:
Titan Forms (Low 2-C) > Base Forms = Mordecai (Low 2-C, but lower)
Or simply the Mordecai thing may be an outlier if a normal guy is supposed to be hurting such a powerful being.
Well, this is fair.

Anti-Pops was still harmed by an arcade machine.
Not even by Mordecai's fists.
An ARCADE MACHINE.
The only outlier here is by Base Pops countering Titan Anti-Pops which --is right before his own Titan power-up burst. Make sense?

Counterpoint. He was crushed by an arcade machine as a tier 2.
- 782
- 274
So if a Tier 2 character throws a car at another Tier 2 character, would you say that the first character is not Tier 2 because the car was not reduced to atoms while traveling or when it collided with the second character?

No, because base Anti-Pops nor Mordecai were never shown to be anywhere near Tier 2 besides the one Base Pops feat that happens seconds before his power up, do you see where I'm going with this?
- 782
- 274
The thing with that is that it happened BEFORE his power up. The dictionary defines before as "at or during a time earlier than (the thing mentioned)" which means that HE HAD NOT YET ACCESSED HIS MAXIMUM POWER (the power that his titan form has) AT THAT MOMENT, that scene where Base Pops briefly stops Titan Anti-Pops' blast happens BEFORE his power up.

Seconds before it. Seconds. He's showing incredible willpower that is gradually becoming stronger until it culminates in his awakening.

Yeah? The fact that he was able to momentarily stop the blast (despite being quickly overpowered) is something that would be impossible if he were infinitely uncountable (the difference between Low 2-C and any tier below) weaker.

Bro, it's like you're telling me that the air could slightly stop one of my punches, which would even be less crazy because the air would produce a 10-C strength instead of an 11-A or less.

You seriously need to learn the concept of "before" and "after", even if he was about to unleash his power, he hadn't done so, nor had he started to do so.
