So I see that profiles have been made for the RoR characters, but I don't see how the stats make any sense. It's like all the issues brough up in the revisions prior to the forum move were just ignored.
AP
None of the statements about these characteres qualify them for 5-B. "Shattering Earth" does not automatically mean overcomming its GBE, which is the baseline for 5-B. As it was pointed out before, fragmenting Earth is around High 6-A. The second justification for the 5-B rating is a statement about Shiva creating and destroying the world on a whim. First of all, destroying the world is also not 5-B by default and such statements are usually considered High 6-A as well; second of all, there are conflicting translations of this statement with the other translation saying "He creates for fun and can destroy the world on a whim!!" I don't know about you, but I'm not too keen on using what may very well be a mistranslation as a justification for these characters' tiers. It doesn't even really make sense for Shiva of all people to be the one to have created the world. If he did, it would have probably been showed in his backstory.
And the Low 2-C rating is unjustified as well: The reasons cited are that 1) Zeus regarded the Big Bang as a thrill 2) Zeus beat Chronos who's the personification of time 3) Zeus could potentially destroy heaven in his Adamas form.
Speed
Rather Zeus and Adam's speed in particular. Now, Zeus has this casual FTL feat, but just because it was casual doesn't mean that he would be MFTL+ when serious when that's like 1000 times above the calc. The justification for his infinite speed rating is "The Fist that Surpassed Time went 1e-20 (0.00000000000000000000 seconds) before we could see the timeframe finish" which is just stupid. It literally says that the technique uses time manipulation and it looks to be a pretty clear cut time stop. And even if it isn't and it's just a punch that happens is exactly 0 seconds, it still wouldn't earn him infinite speed because when t=0, s=undefined.
Abilities
Some perplexing stuff about some of the characters' abilities include:

- People were arguing this statement meant that Zeus tanked the Big Bang to the face, but such a thing was never stated. Hell, the Big Bang is not even an explosion and RoR has never claimed it is.
- This literally doesn't mean anything.
- Destroying heaven also means nothing unless it's stated to be infinite in size, and it isn't. In fact, there is no stated size for heaven.

Some perplexing stuff about some of the characters' abilities include:
- Why does Zeus have biological manip and size manip istead of just body control?
- Literally why does Lu Bu have concept manip?
- Why does Thor have homing attacks when Mjolnir literally doesn't home on anything? It just boomerangs back.
- Why is Adam listed as being non-corporeal?
