Is destroying planets 5-A?

[Arceus0x]

We have a character who can destroy planets. Let's get different scenarios

-stated that destorying planets is beyond easy for him, is a threat to the galaxy

-generally stated to be capable of destroying planets

-has destroyed many planets

Would that grant 5-A?

I saw quite a few characters with 5-A due to that.

I always thought it was because the size of planets varied and thus there are small and big planets (dwarf planets and gas giants) and so we gotta assume that the character is capable of that.

None of those statements (by themselves) are 5-A. You need feats, context and a timeframe to warrant such a tier.

At best all those statement's would support 5-B (if we give them the benefit with a doubt).

 

[Arceus0x]

Well my case is clearly not overtime

 

[The_Axiom_of_Virgo]

Well my case is clearly not overtime

No it's not I'm afraid, none of those statements clearly indicate it happens instantly and are pretty vague. A character can be High 6-A to 5-B and those statement's you posted could easily apply to them.

 

[Arceus0x]

Nah nah nah I'm talking about a specific case i need it for

 

[The_Axiom_of_Virgo]

Nah nah nah I'm talking about a specific case i need it for

I mean you could've just specify that in the OP you know?

I'll assume the specific case has an in verse tier 5 feat (or more) with the planet destroying statements acting as support?

i think it could grant 5A if it's confirmed that the character can destroy planets in a very short time, assuming that it covers all kind of planets

For planet-busting feats to be 5-A involving Earth-sized objects you'd need to destroy said Earth-sized object and send all of its debris flying at speeds of well over 61517 m/s.

Which equates to moving an Earth-sized object of 5.972E+24 kg a full Earth diameter's worth of distance (12742000 meters) in less than 3 minutes.

yes but he's asking can we assume he is 5A because he can destroy planets and he is a galaxy threat, and destroying planets is easy for him, so he's basically asking can we assume he can destroy giant gas planets

Basically, no, you cannot. Not unless he shows evidence of the character blowing up Earth and sending all of its debris hurling at over 61517 m/s or a feat of pushing an Earth-sized object about 12742 kilometers in less than 3 minutes.

The tier of planet destroying feats varies depending on the size of the planet, and the method of destruction; blowing it up or simply ravaging the surfaces are two widely different things but often used in "Planet destruction" terms.

 

[Arceus0x]

I mean my case is the kirby manga and novels.

The novels have some issues but the general statement was for Galacta Knight that "destroying a star is a child's play for him" though the main issue being that planets are sometimes referred to as stars in the novels, the difference being that Galacta knight was stated to be a major threat to the entire galaxy. There's also Meta Knight's ship having an attack called Planet Buster, planet sized access arc and the fight against it as well as Void Termina being a threat to the universe and him causing an explosion reaching into the void of space. There's also the fact that the stories of the games happen in the novels (only two of the game stories are novelized though as the rest are events in between but the stories and characters appearing in the stories that happened in game are often mentioned/appear in the story with Kirby having prior knowledge on them) and the game stories are in clear support of planetary destruction, though that is just a minor supporting evidence.

The Kirby manga has some clear planet explosion feats if i remember correctly.

 

[Arceus0x]

Yeah i am gonna ask for a calc from someone or do it myself.

Actually, can anyone tell me how to calc planet destruction?

 

[DarkDragonMedeus]

Exploding a planet can have kinetic energy calculated if the fragments shatter at a reasonable speed.

yeah but we need a proper timeframe and proof that all the debris travelled in that same exact speed.

 

[Furudo_Erika]

We also need to know the size of the planet and its mass.

 

[KLOL506]

We also need to know the size of the planet and its mass.

I mean, we just assume normal Earth mass and size in cases like these unless stated or shown otherwise, so that's not a problem.

 

[Furudo_Erika]

Seems well for a baseline, but can be a bit inaccurate or arbitrary in my opinion.
The planet may be smaller or larger than Earth, so the more accurate value may be lower or higher.

 

[Arceus0x]

The planet we see in the image i provided is most likely based on saturn but considering it is made of rock it's probably not the same as it.

Is there any well known planet that has a ring that isn't a gas planet?

 

[Furudo_Erika]

Ehh, not really sure if there are too many.
The closest I found was 2060 Chiron, but even that is a ringed dwarf planet.
It has a mass of ~2.7e+18 kg.

 

[Arceus0x]

Sad. Eh I'll just assume earth size then as that is just one of the enormous amount of planets marx destroyed casually for fun
