Culexus Assassin vs a Servant but Not Really

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

Passive 1-B Power Null vs Countering The Almighty Through Raw Skill

Speed is Equalized. Culexus Assassin and Saber Emperio are used. Fight takes place in that stadium from the openning of Brawl. They both loosely know of the others abilities, but mostly from reputation

 

[PsychoWarper]

Im pretty sure Yagyu cant fight threw the Mind **** so that should be ok and he doesnt really have hax to null so lets ignore those for now.

Could the Culexus not just abuse Invisibility and Intangability to avoid attacks and attempt to boop him?

 

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

Invisibilty meant jack shit on Saber Emperio when the other Heroic Spirit Swordmasters tried it. Servant in general can already effect intangible beings, Heroic Spirit Swordmasters extra so, but I'm guessing there is more to it than normal intangibility

 

[The_Prince_of_Counters]

The Almighty? What did Yagyu counter that's like The Almighty? Genuinely curious.

 

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

Saber (Musashi Miyamoto)'s mystic eyes, the Heavenly Eyes. She looks into the infinite futures until she finds one where she wins and then guarantees it will come about. He countered this through his Suigetsu

 

[Overlord775]

If this is Servant Yagyu, then the Culexus litterally nou'es his existance

 

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

This isn't servant Yagyu tho, as the OP says. I chose this version carefully

 

[Overlord775]

Ok, then the Culexus litterally can't do shit and this is a stomp the other way around

 

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

Why? You make it sound like Culexus Assassin doesn't have durability negation or the ability to take out non-hax based fighters

 

[PsychoWarper]

Alright uh im pretty sure this old man kicks the shit out if the edgy spandex wearing freak.

 

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

Whether or not thats the case, idk if it would be a stomp because of it, since the assassin should have win conditions

 

[Overlord775]

Why? You make it sound like Culexus Assassin doesn't have durability negation or the ability to take out non-hax based fighters

Yagyu has 2-A, likely 1-A, soul resistance from resisting Shirou's soul curse, so the Culexus's soul hax is moot

also, Yagyu skill stomps so hard it's not even remotly funny, it's easier for him to get brain cancer and die than the Culexus to actually hit him

 

[PsychoWarper]

Is it 2-A or 1-A cause if its 2-A then Culexus yeet if 1-A... well yeah.

 

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

What? Why in the goddamn **** would that be 2-A to 1-A? (I'm genuinely interested no cap). Still, Culexus Assassin has his grenades as a win condition

He does certainly have the skill advantage, but Culexus Assassin does still have the grenades if nothing else. He may not get passively power nulled, but those are still gonna knock him out if they pull it off. Would it be better if I made it 5 Culexus Assassins?

Wat

 

[PsychoWarper]

Im assuming this is what you mean?

"Can use the Curse of Annihilation (As its name implies, it is a curse that remakes the target's soul and their will to corrupt them into a deranged murderer, a combination of Curse Manipulation, Soul Manipulation, Corruption (Type 3) and Mind Manipulation. This is capable of working on even Machines)"

What makes this 2-A let alone 1-A? And also that is not even remotely similar to how the Culexus effect the soul.

 

[Overlord775]

@Iapitus and @Psycho

2-A because it can affect servants, who's mind resistance doubles as a soul resistance, which scales to Tiamat's mud, 1-A because Root sheninigans

also unless the potency of the granade is scaled to 1-B, then Yagyu can tank it since the Curse of Annihilation is also 2-A mind hax by scaling to servants.

@First Witch

Ultima has said The Root would be a solid 1-A in the new system

 

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

The soul destruction of Culexus should also scale to 1-B, as it is of the same source. the only 1-A soul resist dudes might be Roa, Shiki, and Godword, but the others haven't had their souls be effected while in or by the root.

Do all servants resist 2-A mind hax? based on what?

 

[PsychoWarper]

I dont see how 2-A Mind Hax means you cant get knowcked out by a futuristic stun Grenade.

 

[Overlord775]

Also again, there's more chance for a regular human to hit a Culexus than him hitting Yagyu

Because they can resist Tiamat's mud, which is mind hax and her Authorithy.

 

[PsychoWarper]

Skill doesnt help as much against a AoE Grenade.

 

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

I mean, the answer would be to just drop a **** ton of grenades.

Yeah but it's a different kind of mind hax

 

[Overlord775]

The Culexus only have the Pyschout Granades, which are mind hax

the ones Pycho is talking about are the Blind Granades, which are equipment of the Vindicate Assassins

 

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

Yeah, but they aren't the kind of mind hax that Yagyu's would apply to. The psych-out grenades I mean

 

[Overlord775]

How exactly ?

 

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

They just got some odd particles that stop you from thinking right? It sounds more in line with the abilities of Oudo from Medaka Box than the conventional mind hax that we usually think of

 

[Overlord775]

IDK

 

[Blahblah9755]

They're not at all like Oudo's stuff, which is abnormal cause it's achieved by controlling the electricity in the brain. They seem to just be particles with psychic effects that interfere with people's mental presence and warp connection, thereby shutting off thought. Nothing that would really require non-standard resistances.

 

[The_Prince_of_Counters]

Wait wait wait, what? Since when the **** did Nasu obtain 1-A hax? Gonna call bull-shit on that and ask for the thread where this was accepted.

 

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

The existence or non-existence of 1-A Hax has no relation to this thread as even if they were accepted, Yagyu would not scale to them. That can be discussed later, and on another thread.

 

[Zenjutsu]

Would Yagyu resisting Kama's mindhax+soulhax+some other hax influence be relevant, then?

He was in the Ooku event, where Kama had assimilated a crapton of Servants into Ooku to ensure Fujimaru would come find her, and when Fujimaru gets to Yagyu he's still resisting becoming part of the Infinite Heaven Maze (or whatever it's called). He was slowly failing because he was the only one left, and when Kama noticed she doubled down on her effort.

 

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

bump

 

[Greatsage13th]

Wait wait wait, what? Since when the **** did Nasu obtain 1-A hax? Gonna call bull-shit on that and ask for the thread where this was accepted.

Okay just when?

Since the root got accepted as 1 a

Can you please not necro old threads like that Sage?

Sorry, I was just extremely curious on how the heck did Fate/Grand order have 1A resistances but no Hax on the same level.
