I don't think the context matters too much. Especially if you believe Neo's transformations scale to Super as we've been shown that Base Forms from a narrative standpoint are completely out of reach of Base Form characters unless they have an explicit weakness (Such as a spot conveniently weak to Base form attacks).
The thing Master Overlord had? (Wings plus the Master Emerald)
Plus context absolutely matters, you can't just thrown it aside
Even so, with some of the members exhausted, it's by an unquantifiable amount, and the difference in performance can't meaningfully be measured. We see Zavok literally breath on Sonic and M
And Metal bodies everyone by shrugging, plus Sonic literally got back up the same page
If the difference between 1 Emerald and 2 Base Mid-Tiers is enough to breathe on them and send them flying there's no imaginable way that Base Forms could conceivably take on a user comparable to an actual Super unless it was an absurd amount of PIS.
Yeah, because there was PIS, Sonic distracted Metal by taunting him, go read the fight again and see how many times Metal actualy hits the protagonists, once he shrugged he was about to kill everyone
We see Sonic with the Super Form blitz Zavok, yet Neo Sonic with ANY of his transformations were able to do that at any point to the Base Forms whilst Super Sonic blitzed Zavok with literally zero difficulties
Because he was toying them... First thing he does is knock them down with one blast
See why this isn't adding up yet? Essentially you're affirming that if the Deadly Six were small, and there were numerous of them, they could beat Super Sonic or at least give him a lot of trouble.
Comparassion fails because they didn't give trouble to Master Overlord, they distracted him enough so that they could exploit his weakness and take him down with greater firepower (The ship). And maybe they could outlast his super form timer, Burning Blaze needed her entire time to destroy a couple ships
It adds up if you stop thinking as if every fight works with Dragon Ball logic where the weaker is completely hopeless no matter what
With Super and Neo we're shown he's definitely above Base, but not out of reach/impossible to match up to with help from others which is what Zavok felt like.
This is literally wrong, they literally beat Zavok by using the same strategy they used Overlord (take the power source), he wasn't "impossible", that's straight up wrong, and yes, Super and Overlord were in the same realm, they only beat Neo once his timer ran out and Overlord by taking the power source, just like Zavok
Because at that point he was still slow enough for them to evade some attacks, but still dangerous enough to try to avoid being attacked at all costs.
He wasn't slow, he straight up captures Sonic right away, it's needed multiple distractions and clever thinking for them to not vê wrecked, you are creating a non existant standard for super form scaling in IDW
Especially if in Canon on this site that people have agreed Mecha's Super Form doesn't scale to Sonic's actual Super Form (In fact he scales FAR beneath it).
