infinite speed question

[TRUTH]

does destroying an infinite area within a time grant infinite attack speed?

Wrong. It also works here, actually. Read this CRT. And the Speed page.

"When evaluating speed feats resulting in infinite speed a high amount of scrutiny should be applied. Speed feats of this nature frequently turn out to be Outliers and statements regarding infinity are prone to be Hyperbole. One should consider whether it is more plausible and consistent to assume that the abilities creating infinite distance or zero time were resisted, circumvented or nullified instead, or if Teleportation or similar were employed. Filling or lightning up infinite-sized realms must require substantial amounts of evidence. But if the intent for the infinite-sized realm is clear and repeatedly hammered in multiple times, then there's no reason to assume otherwise and it should be acceptable.

When it comes to scaling such speed to other attacks or characters a high amount of scrutiny is necessary. Often these speeds don't scale to any regular attack or other characters. Fictions tend to prove this fact by the attacks and/or movement of characters not starting and finishing simultanously, even if the characters are moving a finite distance, despite the fact that this should be the case for infinitely fast characters. Generally, to scale such speed feats to characters or other attacks the verse needs to provide solid evidence for it and consistently portray the character/attack and those that scale as moving that fast."

Having it scale to your travel speed, combat speed and reactions however, is another story.

Also, the attack MUST HAVE A TRAVEL COMPONENT, like in an explosion or a beam blast or a powerful light illuminating everything in its path where it encompasses everything by quickly covering a lot of ground. Or else it really can't be quantified as a speed feat to begin with. It can't be a weird hax-based thing that doesn't encompass an area and just happens.
