Modern Drax the Destroyer

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

Shouldn't modern Drax also be 4-B due to fighting Thor and fighting Hulk?

 

[Elizhaa]

I think that is Classic Drax not Modern Drax in the scans, from the designs.

 

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

Ah you are right, I mixed them up.

I'll try to look for other scans.

 

[Elizhaa]

No problem.

We can scale him to Gamora, who is 4-B

 

[Elizhaa]

I will say Gamora's profile look to be mix of Classic and Current versions. Her current version should still be 4-B from harming Nova; the other scans looks to be for Classic Gamera.

That said, I think Drax could scaled to Gamera if he is comparable her.

I think we should probably wait and see if we could get inputs from staffs like Zark, first

 

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

Well if Classic and Current versions have similar powers we don't have to make 2 keys.

 

[Peter_"Quicksilver"_Maximoff]

Let me see if I can find some scans to help out.

 

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

Would it be fine to scale him to Gamora for now?

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

Didn't a version of Drax wind up killing a version of Thanos?

 

[Elizhaa]

Yeah, he did as stated on his justification: (Managed to kill Thanos, but only due to his nature and purpose)

 

[Elizhaa]

Would it be fine to scale him to Gamora for now?

This seems fine, to me.

 

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

I will apply it then.

 

[Antvasima]

I do not think that base Gamora is supposed to be anywhere near 4-B in terms of raw power. She is one of those characters that are able to harm far more powerful beings via pure skill/Plot-Induced Stupidity.

 

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

She might be considered a "peak human" by the guidebooks, but she has consistent feats of fighting 4-B characters.

 

[DanielIH15]

Don't know so much about classic Gamora, but modern Gamora is not 4-B in my record. Actually, doesn't that scan of her fighting Sam (Nova) happens when she was amped by the Black Vortex? And, in that respect thread, the only cases of her fighting 4-B are She-Hulk and Captain Marvel, something that it could be outliers, due to his record. Personally, maybe is better to scale her to Ronan the Accuser, with whom she had a really even match in the Annihilation event, but not completely sure.

 

[Hellbeast1]

It's possible we could give her different keys?

Like Classic Modern and Black Vortex?

 

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

That could work ig.

So 4-B Classic Gamora, and 5-A Modern Gamora (maybe 4-B Black Vortex)?

 

[Antvasima]

She has supposedly grown more powerful over the years when resurrected by Adam Warlock, so I think that making her current key less powerful doesn't make sense.

Still, she has damaged Thanos, classic Drax, and She-Hulk, so I suppose that we have to let her stay as 4-B. She is likely similar to Karate Kid (Pre-Crisis) in that she is officially supposed to be at most on Spider-Man's level, but her feats say otherwise.

 

[Antvasima]

See her official statistics here: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Gamora_Zen_Whoberi_Ben_Titan_(Earth-7528)

 

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

So modern Gamora is supposedly stronger than classic?

 

[Antvasima]

Yes. Since 1991 or so at least.

 

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

Hmmn. Her feats seem weaker though.

 

[Antvasima]

Not compared to before her resurrection.

 

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

What do you mean?

 

[Antvasima]

I mean that back in the late 1970s to early 1980s when she first appeared and then quickly died, I do not think that she was as dangerous as currently.

 

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

You mean this Gamora is weaker than this Gamora?

 

[Antvasima]

No, you showed an image of her early 1990s incarnation. That is after her first resurrection when she was enhanced by Warlock.

 

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

Ah I see.

So we might need 4 keys for Gamora. Classic (Pre-Warlock), Classic (Post-Warlock), Modern (Base) and Modern (Black Vortex).

 

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

Idk about pre-Warlock, but for post-Warlock she would be 4-B via feats, as well as Black Vortex, while for base modern Gamora she would scale to 5-A Ronan the Accuser.

 

[Antvasima]

The Post-Warlock and Modern incarnations should have the same power levels as far as I am aware, so separating them seems unnecessary.

 

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

Modern Gamora doesn't seem to show any 4-B feats though, except when she was amped by Black Vortex...

 

[Antvasima]

Well, her power level has not officially changed, just her writers.

 

[Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan]

I suppose so.

This should be closed then ig?

 

[Antvasima]

Okay.
