Uh…

• Garou - One shots 2.46 Petatons
• Released Boros - Stronger than 5.68 Exatons

Boros gives Garou the Saitama treatment

Does this contribute anything? "It is not fine to restrict abilities in a versus matchup, implicitly or expressly. Matches that are arranged this way should not be added to the character profiles, as they don't involve their full potential, and are only intended for casual entertainment. An exception would be if the restricted ability/technique has a separate tier from the main one, and is one the character can consciously restrict themselves from using. In this case, the match can be added. "

Those Versus Thread Rules mean that Garou can jump up to Low 5-B+ as his increase is passive and he can't consciously stop it. He just grows stronger and it hasn't been shown to be a consciously activated ability. With Garou's far superior martial arts skill, could he hold Boros off long enough to evolve to Low 5-B+?

Since Boros himself has like zero hand to hand combat feats.

Or does this mean Garou's skill can't save him from the overwhelming difference in power long enough for him to evolve?

Boros gives Garou the Saitama treatment

Boros is eager to face a strong opponent, so he would likely hold back for a bit once he sees Garou's potential. This could give Garou the opportunity to evolve quickly enough to catch up to Boros.

Depends on how hard Boros goes at the start. with speed equal Garou can dodge any H2H attempt Boros makes, but if he uses AOE blasts too soon then... well, not even a single bone will remain. WSRSF can deflect stronger attacks and even omnidirectional explosions, but something that much stronger is a no go.
He will probably start slow, but if Garou starts skillstomping and surpassing him in speed chances are he will get excited and end up killing the monster hero too soon.

Boros isn't going to hold back, he's going to go all out from the start. If he goes MB and kicks Garou to the space it's a done deal.

 

[Bernkastelll]

Imagine thinking that Garou will let Boros kick him to space

He will, MB gives a massive speed boost.

 

[Bernkastelll]

yeah and Garou reactive evolution makes him adapt to it, become FTL and Low 5-B

Base speed is equalized. The gap Boros climbed is vastly wider than the gap Garou did over time during his evolution.

For speed I should clarify.

there's still nothing stopping him from reaching that speed

They're already there, speed is equal. This Garou already did that feat.

 

[Emirp sumitpo]

What's stopping Boros from just straight up one shotting Garou? Boros isn't going to hold back like Saitama, and Garou can't evolve if he's dead.

 

[Mazdoesstuff]

Boros would realize Garou’s strength and not hold back, oneshotting him before he can adapt. Simple
