The current calc used for Vaccine Man's durability is linked here:
I recently recalced it linked here:
Both of these calcs have been approved by CGMs, so this thread is to discuss which is better.
Liger's Calc:
I believe that this calc can not be used because of 3 main reasons.
1. The panel as from a weird angle which make finding the depth very difficult
2. It uses Pulverization when we clearly see steam rising from the crater and some areas inside of it are scorched. Vaccine Man's blasts are also stated to be the same as Homeless Emperor, which means that the energy needed to make the crater should be found in a similar way to how this calc did it, using Vaporization.
3. As per this thread, when finding the size of something, a shot where the large object in question (which in this case is the crater) is the focus of the panel should be used as the actual size the artist/author wanted it depicted as. In Liger's calc, he picks a panel where Vaccine Man is the focus.
My Calc:
Similar to my thoughts on Liger's calc, there are 3 main reasons as to why I believe this calc should be used.
1. The calc is using much more objective measurements. Using Trig Functions to find the radius works better here, as we know that Vaccine Man is in he center of the crater based on him standing on a pile of rubble that is balanced. If Vaccine Man was not in the center of the crater, the pile of rubble would rolled over, especially because of the fact that the rubble points up in a cone-like shape.
2. The calc accounts for the rubble that was not fully Vaporized, but instead V. Frag'ed. We see that Vaccine Man is standing on a pile of rubble, which prompted me to simply say that he only Vaporized around 90% of the volume of the crater.
3. The calc is more recent. I know this is a minor reason, but because Liger's calc was made 5 years ago, there may be a plethora of things wrong with it now. My calc is better in this regard as it was made and evaluated less that a week ago, making it easier to tell if it's usable or not.
