I’ve listened to it, and I’ve gotta say, I’m disappointed that Brandon didn’t try to incorporate the power levels. In my opinion it was the cheat sheet, the cheat code, for an easy and well deserved hype moment for when Bardock goes Super Saiyan.
Picture it, lyrics resounding, screaming, resonating, harmonizing as Bardock ascends into the Legend, guitar playing the most mind boggling riffs since Wings of Iron:
“10,000…40,000…102,000…250,000…500,000!”
(For context, in Solid State Scouter, the song featured power levels made in increasingly haunting tones for Bardock and his enemies throughout the special. Eventually, it ramps up to its most haunting and suddenly cuts—At 530,000, Frieza’s power level in his First Form. This is also where Bardock dies, to show just how unbelievably outclassed every lifeform was in comparison to the Emperor and highlight the Saiyan’s tragedy. By having Bardock’s be the triumphant and hype power level rise, it’d be the equal opposite and highlight both how the Super Saiyan would’ve overcome Frieza, bring weight to the increase it gives, and outright “undo” the loss the Saiyan people suffered since Bardock now has access to power that allows him to defeat Frieza. Contrasting the tyranny of the Emperor with the Vengeance of the Saiyan people.)
(…At least until Nolan beats Bardock from really faulty Sundisk scaling and not giving him the Planet Vegeta feat, if the rumors are true.)
It would work also perfectly for Bardock’s death, descending, if Nolan was to win. Similar to Hyourinjutsu’s Ginyu (Bardock) V Namek Arrival Goku, or the power levels of Planet Vegeta falling to zero in DBS: Broly. “500,000…250,000…102,000…40,000…10,000…0.”
In a sympathetic direct mirror to Frieza (which could add perhaps a reference to Final Formers, or F). The same death but from a person who can relate (and played in reverse—Descending in power), showing Bardock was destined to die as his Visions foretold. The Warrior of Fate, unable to change his own. Literally peak fiction, strewn to the wayside for an (admittedly sick) Omni-Lander reference/basis.
That said, the song is still really ******* awesome. I just am disappointed in the lack of what I always considered the best part of Solid State Scouter (outside of the song itself being really ******* banger.)

Hmm, Sequel OSTs are neat, but would it have been better if the track was fully original? Maybe this is preference thing.

I am talking about BASE Sonic characters. I expect Death Battle to at best scale base characters to the FEB.

Honestly, it's a bit weird that they'd use the sun disk since it's only been brought up during the waiting period, why wouldn't they use the viltrum feat, considering you can get legit star level calcs from that
- 8,461
- 5,076
I hope they are real, speaking as a Death Battle hater. I need more validation for my hater status.

What calc puts the Viltrum bust at star level? People calc KE from the debris from the exit cause the resulting explosion is from a destabilized core from the Infinity Ray.
Not to mention I don't think Viltrum's size was confirmed. Only larger than Earth.

Ngl if they actually validate the leaks, I'll forever look at them sideways
- 2,709

It's wild how every one else, reddit, youtube, this site, all call Death Battle out on their shit yet everything I've heard about their discord tells me it's an echo chamber where openly disagreeing and confronting a staff member can get you a warning no matter how nice you are

Now if the leaks are false, I'll apologize, but I genuinely just can't put this past them

But this isnt Bowser vs Eggman.
Hmmm would Eggman L be worse than Bardock L here?

remember when people said the same thing about billcord and now we have bill 7 dimensions higher than where DB placed them?

Bardock L is unexpected here, so no. Most of the salt comes from shock.

Calling it: the rumors are fake and Bardock's slamming

At least with Bill's statements about multiversal are all backed by credible characters in the show + the author writing a whole book about him.
I'd rather Supreme, Omnipotus, or Spawn scaling over the ******* sun disc. It's so bad.

Tbh Bardock L leaks are prolly fake but next time is still Giorno vs Joker.

what were the complaints about the sun disk again? Wasn't it destroyed by a lasar? I recall there being a way to calc the size
- 2,709

I never saw any reliable way to calc it's size.

Couldn't you angsize the distance to the planet in the last panel, and reuse that distance on the top panel to angsize the disk size? Or is that calcstacking here?

The size is so calc dependent. There's so many different ways to calc it because there's actually no official size to even draw from, just perspective. And the sun disc looks different when the reader's perspective changes.
It looks relative in size to the ship shooting it down. The ship seems a lot closer to the sun disc, yet the planet is around the same size.
Not to mention this panel is the only thing you see of the disc breaking apart. Notably that piece off the side.
Other complaints include making an assumption that Omniman scales above because of a statement saying Viltrumites are the most powerful.
Narratively makes no sense for some Coalition ship to output star levels of power. Viltrum would be one shotted with ease. Yet they needed the Infinity Ray + timing + 3 Viltrumites together to actually destroy Viltrum. And the planet only blew because the core was destabilized.

Funny thing is, G1 Blog also made a wank high ball and they specifically said Bardock had feats to match it and he'd win regardless due to speed.

Brain rot, or us becoming cultured? That is the question.

Brain rot.
Cuz as I said before, sun disk shouldn't even give Omni-man the W. You have three separate star level feats for Bardock to choose from.

apparently it brought up awhile back we're just now learned about it a few weeks ago
