Isn't this Instinctive Reaction or Precog? Maybe Analytical Prediction?
No, Saitama doesnt state, in these scans at least, that he "felt" that his wig was going to be blown off, he only backed off because he believed it was possible for this to happen, in the next scan he's dodging a barrage of kicks because he consider them dangerous. He only believes his wig is going to fall off, he doesn't "Instinctively react" to anything

You don't need Saitama to state (even though he does), He literally feels a shudder and sees Suiryu as a "threat" akin to how Kabuto saw him and backs off in advance.
 
He doesn't see Suiryu as a genuine threat, though. He sees Suiryu as a genuine threat to his wig.

Also, there's tons of instances where this kind of stuff happens and it's not instinctive reaction, like the weird vibes Saitama gets from Sonic and TTM's fight with Garou. Saitama himself can exude a sort of killing intent when mad.

Iaian also mentions this kind of stuff (though it seems like more of an ability gained through training in his case).

Limited Extra sensory perception ( in case Saitama is wearing a wig he can feel bloodlust directed at it.)

None of this contradicts my point. It's pretty simple really, Saitama felt that his wig was gonna get blown away if he attacked and backed off in advance. That's pretty clearly IR.

Saitama also “shudders” in his fight against Kabuto, although this is done merely as a comedic effect and we later know this caused by something entiret different. Saitama is never described as having this, implied, and what Suiryu thinks is him instinctively backing up because of his counter attack is simply Saitama backing up because he believes his wig will be knocked off.

Is there any other concrete showing of such an ability?
 
If anything this falls under: Enhanced Senses and/or Extrasensory Perception: The means to detect incoming danger or when it's convenient to act in some way may be through any of this two powers, but a user of Instinctive Action doesn't necessarily have them

Saitama doesn’t instinctively react to this, he feels like his wig will be knocked off and avoids the next attack with conscious effort. Even then, with no direct confirmation im afraid that we cant call this ES either.

The killing intent point was just to address the Kabuto shit.

Firstly, no it isn't. You wouldn't even need IR to do something like that and Suiryu was attacking the whole time.

Secondly, it was already slipping and had done so previously/needed to be secured.
 
Suiryu was attacking the whole time.
No, Suiryu wasn't attacking in that specific instance. He was literally provoking Saitama to attack him and Saitama backed off the moment he felt a threat (to his wig).
Secondly, it was already slipping and had done so previously/needed to be secured.
I don't see your point. Yes, it slipped previously but in this instance, the wig was perfectly in its place and Saitama was ready to attack. He retreated only because he felt Suiryu's counter.

That's not what happened, but this is basically the point I'm trying to make.

He was attacking the whole time, and then comes in close in order to have a more direct fight, even egging Saitama on to throw a punch. As we've seen, punches alone can make Saitama lose his wig.
I don't see your point. Yes, it slipped previously but in this instance, the wig was perfectly in its place and Saitama was ready to attack.
My point is that the wig as a whole is insecure, and it's not the kind of risk Saitama wanted to take. If Saitama threw a punch there, he also wouldn't have been able to hold the wig.
He retreated only because he felt Suiryu's counter.
Which you don't need IR for something that blatantly obvious. Not only do these kinds of characters drawn in this exact manner exude killing intent, but any person with half a brain cell would know that an attack is coming.
 

Of all the crossovers they could do, that's what they came up with? God Blizzard has fallen off this hard. It was once a king, but I guess Riot might be taking its place in coming years, though Riot ain't looking too hot either tbh, at least as far as video-games go. Obviously Arcane was an absolute banger, but on the video-game spectrum they haven't had any bangers lately and their biggest cash cow is beginning to die. Valorant isn't as popular as it was a while back either. Maybe the League MMO in 10 years will save it.

That skin looks silly and it's a really shameless attempt at a cash grab.
 
This is punishment for all the people that were complaining about everyone “only” being 7-B.

Wasn't there a way to make a Genos skin or something? Hell even a Fubuki skin (though desperate) would have been interesting

Riot is probably betting everything on the MMO but at the same time I don't think League is "dying", LoL players always say that and the game keeps growing lol (The one that is actually dying is LoR sadly). TFT is doing pretty well too.
 
i love the “tatsumaki couldnt bring boros’ ship down herself” argument when she had this reaction when it got destroyed ☠️

League isn't dying in terms of play time and money, but that's not what matters from an actual player perspective. Playing it, the game feels dead, and that's what matters.
 
?
Read the sequence again. Saitama himself comments it was close and Suiryu makes it apparent that Saitama reacted like that because Suiryu would have countered and blown his wig off.
That's meant to be Suiryu looking too far into it. He thinks Saitama is a master martial artist, Saitama just moved on reaction, hence why it was close.

He's trillions of times faster, if he had been using analytical prediction there, it wouldn't have been close to begin with.
 
Agree to disagree I guess, I still find it pretty fun
Oh me too, don't get me wrong. I find it enjoyable and a good way to kill time. The game itself, that is. It only gets ruined by the player base as far as I'm concerned, not just the toxicity, but the overall lack of cooperative teammates and how almost no one these days is actually trying to have fun anymore. I can understand having a competitive view, especially in ranked, but I barely see anyone actually enjoying the game, most people just complain about the game or their teammates and have a strong case of main character syndrome. Though in all fairness, the balancing has been a bit...questionable, in recent years, but that isn't a justifiable reason to hate on the game all the time, and I do believe that many people exaggerate it. Sure there have been some broken or terrible champions lately, as well as many overloaded champs, but people turn that into "every new champ is turbo-busted" because it's the cool thing to say now. What's more concerning to me than the balancing is the punishment system, but that's another topic entirely.

Anyways, I was talking about the perspective of the general majority of the player base. If you look into it, you'll see that a lot of old time League players hate the game now, most newer players don't realize how fun the game used to be and literally complain about everything all the time (way too competitive usually as well), and even many of the old League content creators are leaving. Hell, even Tyler1 seems to be stepping away a bit, and he's arguably the most known League content creator around. Sure, Riot's sales are probably not plummeting as hard as some think, but most people generally do not like League anymore, even if they still play it anyways.
