Superman fights a pony

[Paulo.junior.969]

Alright, then, show me the clip of Discord being sealed by something else that isn't the Elements of Harmony, and then casually escaping from it just by thinking. Without a feat like that, there's no reason to assume that anything is being nullified, it's just that Discord can't escape sealing.

You know I admitted the EoH have type 2 sealing right? I admitted they weren't nullifying him, but sealing him, just as you said. Didn't you see my edit?

Yes but the act of sealing still kept him from using his powers didn't it? Wait nvm, just checked the thread, the Elements have type 2 sealing.

I rarely go back to read the comments I've already read.

Well I'm no longer arguing for power nulling.

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

Ok.

Just to add insult to injury, i'm gonna go in and say that Superman definitely wins.

He's faced similar enough magic users who were able to knock out the rest of the Justice League while he was able to withstand it, he's shown resistance to pretty much all of Twilight's most useful hax (except power nullification) and he has has a massive experience and AP advantage.

Not much Twilight can do against that much power.

So wouldn't magic count as a "natural ability"? It seems to be directly related to their biology, manifesting itself in different ways for different pony types. I mean I get that it's supernatural, but it also seems to be a natural ability they have. Although feel free to call me out if you think that is pushing it.

That seems pushing it. Just to use an example, in Naruto, "chakra" is something that all living beings have, according to worldbuilding earlier in the series, but that doesn't mean it isn't supernatural. Just because pegasi have to use additional magic to help their apparently inefficient wing design enable flight, does not qualify their magic as being a non-supernatural energy; it's a fallacious arguement.

Why are we still arguing this when it's not even on the profile to begin with?

Also, the grace period has passed. This can be added and closed.

The point being, I don't think the Elements' "power nullification" as explained here (which, again, Twilight doesn't have it listed, in the first place) wouldn't affect Superman, as the source of his power is inherently different from mystical energies like magic. The only thing capable of nullifying his powers is Kryptonite radiation, or a red star. And even then, Superman has proven to be able to (however briefly) ignore those weaknesses, such as the time he flew straight through a red star (which saps him of his powers), but he still had enough durability to survive a FTL+ (don't quote me on that) impact onto Mogo's surface.

Twilight actually does have power nullification via dark magic (crystals created by it prevented Shining Armor from using his magic). I actually admitted the Elements Seal rather than nullify.
