Base Garou and Blast will scale to 4-A via Blast tanking a portion of Serious Punch^2. They aren't scaling to the full Serious Punch^2 value, which is far higher
Blast needed help to divert the blast by manipulating the vectors. I don't care about any Inverse Square Law calc bullshit I care about what is clearly visible, he didn't tank the blast he reacted and diverted it with his friends.

Garou was literally harmed by Casual Saitama's Normal Punch before copying his real power lmao and Saitama was legit holding back to not destroy the planet up until Genos died.
 
He's scaling way below even 1% of their power output. They can effortlessly one shot him. So I don't think there is an issue with him scaling too close to them.
I don't care about your calc which begins with the uncertain assumption that he actually tanked a portion of the damage. I care about the feats. And Garou's best feats when he fought Blast was the GRB.

If 1% of the blast hit Blast why didn't the solar system explode? Because the entire explosion was diverted, he just received the knockback of actually diverting it lol.
 
Blast was also clearly hit by that energy.

Since he was inside the portal/gate thing as well, and was sent flying away by the power of the serious punch^2.

There is no denying that whatsoever. He was hit by it and was sent flying back. He's way farther away than where he was before.

Unless being inside of the gate made the power nonexistence or something. But we have no such statement.

The explosion didn't destroy the solar system because he's holding it back. He wasn't letting it expand more.

No he wasn't. The first page which you linked only shows Blast opening the portal before they hit each other SPECIFICALLY to divert the blast.

The second shows Blast floating in space still trying to divert.

The scans prove nothing.

What? He's literally right next to them, and the panel shows him being sent flying back. He was inside of the circle/portal/gate thing, but ends up outside of it.

You can see the boom it unleashes right here. It doesn't expand because Blast is holding it back.

He was much closer to them and very clearly looks like he's been sent flying back.
 
Finished the calc.

Low End (Peak Human Reactions timeframe): 8.02115312c

Mid End (Garou-Platinum Sperm Constellation timeframe: 617.01178c

High End (Shockwaves seem frozen timeframe): 275125.731c

Super High End ("Shockwaves" are light, as they were called light structures in 155): 18497547800c
I honestly think the high-end is the most accurate out of all of these lol. The only other one that makes sense is the low end but obviously that's incredibly downplayed. The mid end could work, but I doubt people will accept Garou's reaction speed being that without claiming it's calc stacking somehow

Yeah the blast was contained by his barrier / gate thing. It doesn't matter that he was close because he stopped it from expanding.

Yeah thinking about it, High End or Low End seems the most likely. Mid End might be dismissed as calc stacking.

I don't understand what you mean by this? Why does this mean he doesn't scale to it.

He was inside of the portal/gate, as we can see here too. And he is launched out by the explosion of their punch. Which means he got hit by it.

His pose clearly shows he's being sent flying away.

I'm not all that interested in OPM to debate this in detail. Maybe in the CRT, but honestly I'll just go with what the majority agrees with.
 
I'm hoping the high end is accepted. I personally don't see how it could be problematic at all, but the calc team is usually very strict.

I am not going to add this to the CRT as it seems way more debatable than everything else on there and I personally want this to be a simple and quick upgrade to get the profiles back in shape.

If you can develop a solid argument that convinces people to upgrade them to 4-A afterwards, then good for you.
 
Super High End ("Shockwaves" are light, as they were called light structures in 155): 18497547800c
When were they called light structures for Saitama and Garou during this fight?

I'm pretty sure it'll be mention that you cannot use that statement for another moment. The series has a lot of moments like this where character leave behind flashes, explosions, and trails when moving at high speed. By that logic why can't we use that same reasoning for Garou, PS and FF's feat?

Visually they're identical, just on a far more massive scale. If Garou, PS, and FF can't use that reasoning than Saitama and Garou can't use it either.

It doesn't matter that he's pushed back because he wasn't hit by anything! The explosion is contained there, he's just being pushed away by the knockback of trying to contain it, which is failing until he receives help.

Pre-Serious Series Garou is weak enough to be affected and launched back by a Normal Punch from Saitama who's holding back, after copying Serious Series he is enough to endure Serious Punches at full power and keep fighting. It makes absolutely no sense for this weaker Garou and Blast to scale to the Serious Punch Squared feat. I don't care if the calc says they're actually 200 times weaker I care about what is factually being portrayed.
 
By the way on the CRT I will be making a note that all Post-Saitama matches should be removed. Especially those loses against the Jojo characters which make absolutely zero sense.

Will also be asking for Saitama's porcipe to be out back in the normal PnA format because right now it looks ridiculous.
 
Honestly is the low end is even CONSIDERED to be accepted then every bit of backlash for it would be warranted
you would have to be criminally insane to think that Garou has peak human reactions or something like that.
Mid end or high end are the only realistic options
 
High end is 100% the best option here. It doesn't use a previously established timeframe. It just uses what we see, which is that the explosions are completely frozen as they move. Something Murata is very known for doing in many other circumstances and panels.

See no reason it wouldn't be the accepted end.

The ratt loss is funny actually, also it had nothing to do with Saitama’s AP due to it being haxed so it would just be the same

If Saitama hits the air in their direction, they die. Also, the Rat literally has to pierce skin to induce that biological effect. It's incredibly dumb.
 
I mean, Saitama literally flicks the ******* air in any direction, doesn't even matter, and they die instantly. Stupidest matches on the entire profile.
Doesn't Saitama tend to just let his opponent do whatever in a fight and only attack when the opponent becomes a danger or when he becomes annoyed?

I think the argument was along the lines of it being selective intangibility or contact based instead of needing to actually damage or something
+ he wouldn’t see stands

This is such a weird assumption people make regarding Saitama. Against monsters, he usually attacks. And under SBA there is no reason for him to let himself get damaged.

Based on SBA he would know who is opponent is and would be willing to kill it. Also, the part about it being contact based is bullshit.

Saitama just does literally any attack and the shockwave turns the rat to paste.
 
Saitama's Planetary-ish feats should be removed from his AP and moved to the "Feats" section. Which should only include his impressive feats.
 
SBA: Each character will view their opponents as enemies, who they have to assume wish to cause them severe harm such that losing could have any range of dire consequences. The characters will assume their opponents have not been forced into battle. They are assumed to have decided from free will to fight and are not excused by a just cause, difficult times or otherwise exonerating circumstances.

Saitama has zero reason to let someone attack first under SBA. In character, depending on how they meet, he won't go for the win instantly yeah. But SBA makes it so he wants to win and losing would have dire consequences. In character, yet in this mindset, Saitama should just try to instantly knock them out.
