The Diamonds

[Pepper14832]

So in the recent episodes leaked, the Diamonds were able to launch an direct attack on Earth to wipe out the Crystal Gem Resistance on Earth. Yellow, Blue and White Diamond did this (which I assume requires all 3 Diamonds in order to do this) to cause mass corruption of Gems


What would we feat this at? Low 5-B? Since this affected any Gems not protected planet-wide. I will provide a video for this.

Steven Universe - Your Mother and Mine Full Episode (Clip 3 3)

 

[Pepper14832]

Start video at 34 seconds to see the attack. I tried to link it specifically, it did not work.

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

Wouldn't that just be hax on a planetary range? It didn't really destroy anything.

 

[Pepper14832]

Well, we give the Independence Day Harvester 5-B rating due to a world wide EMP attack.

 

[Tipoima]

"recent episodes leaked" It wasn't a leak. And why are we talking about this now anyway? We already knew about it back in Monster Reunion, 1.5 years ago.

 

[Antoniofer]

The attack is not destructive and, apparently, it only affects gems; so is not quantificable; it only affects the range of the Diamonds, but just with that attack.

 

[Tipoima]

It's also questionable how effective it was. Not only it was completely canceled with Rose's Shield, but it did nothing to a completely unprotected Lapis. And I guess Bismuth, although it's unknown where her bubble was during the attack.

 

[Antoniofer]

Welp, according to Garnet, Rose's shield protected them, that is more a pro for the shield than a con for the attack; its possible that the attack doesn't have effect when the gems have their body shut down, or Lapis was just in a place outside the range of the attack; and Bismuth was in Rose's bubble at that time, she wasn't going to be affected.

 

[Tipoima]

its possible that the attack doesn't have effect when the gems have their body shut down,


or Lapis was just in a place outside the range of the attack

That's very improbable. That would imply that at the time of the attack there were no poofed Gems, even tho it was during a planetary evacuation. I don't believe that nobody got poofed by an accident or fighting Crystal Gems at that time.

Also very improbable. Attack got everyone on the planet and Lapis wasn't even that far, she could literally see the attack.

I'll also add, her being in the mirror doesn't seem to be the reason, either. The gem powering the Pyramid Temple was confirmed to be corrupted, and it's the closest thing we have to Lapis's condition.

 

[Antoniofer]

Nothing has been comfirmed yet, any other thing that we say is or could be speculation, thats why I do not suggest to create profile of characters that has no fought nor show how their powers work.

 

[Tipoima]

Can't argue with that one.

 

[Amelia_Lonelyheart]

Would the luminosity of it be calculable? I'm not sure, but if it was, I'd be iffy on finding a way to scale the flash, perspective sees weird and all.

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

Pretty sure this doesn't provide any sort of AP upgrade, but it does mean the Diamonds have planetary range, it seems.

 

[Tipoima]

Probably not. Besides, calculating sizes of things in SU really won't get you anywhere. Also, we don't know if luminosity really matters here.

 

[Pepper14832]

Again, Independence Day Harvester did a Planet Wide EMP as it's reasoning for 5-B. But in the case of the Diamonds Low-5B since it's Earth?

 

[Tipoima]

Only against Gems tho.

 

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

That's not a 5-B feat, either.

 

[Amelia_Lonelyheart]

Size scaling is only really trouble with characters. The beam would be scaled to a planet, which has a definable size.

I'm not sure how luminosity really works outside the formula so I'm just not sure if it's applicable here or not.

 

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

@Dark

Looks like it got calced at Large Island level.

So consistent, but no upgrade.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Will they ever give SU actual hax that arent Gem exclusive in who they work against?

 

[Amelia_Lonelyheart]

High 6-C seems about right for something of that scale, aight.

 

[Tipoima]

Will they ever give SU actual hax that arent Gem exclusive in who they work against?

Probably no.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Although its nice to point out that Rose's shield works as a barrier against light-based hax that were previously though to work against her transparent shield

 

[Amelia_Lonelyheart]

Will they ever give SU actual hax that arent Gem exclusive in who they work against?

You'd think a race that conquered galaxies and stuff would have stuff that would work on organic races too..

 

[Tipoima]

Nah. Think about it this way: why would Gems have innate abilities agaisnt completely different type of life altogether? Humans didn't evolve anti-gem poison, so why Gems would have something against organics? Why they didn't make a weapon against organics is easy too: they don't need to. They have plenty of regular weapons that do the job.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Gem's answer to organic life is just solid brute force

Glass Ghost is the most haxxed Gem at the moment

Gotta wonder though...how exactly did they make The Glass of Time?

 

[Tipoima]

Gotta wonder though...how exactly did they make The Glass of Time?

Doubt thinking about it will get you any results. This is as non-canon, as something in the actual show may be.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

...Huh? How is it non canon exactly?

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

The Crewniverse wanted a time travel episode, that's how.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

But how does that make the Glass any less canon?

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

I was responding to your first question but you guys changed the subject while I was typing.

 

[Tipoima]

...Huh? How is it non canon exactly?

Almost the entirety of Season 1A was made before the Crew had any idea what they were doing. Most of the things there don't make any sense with current plot and were never mentioned again. Is it technically canon? Yes. Is it really canon? Nah.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

Tell that to the Centipeetle Mother ovo

 

[Tipoima]

Tell that to the Centipeetle Mother ovo

I do in fact have a problem with her. Specifically these little centipeetles she made.

 

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

That has no effect on whether she's canon or not, though.

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

I wish they had at least explained that the time thing was really hard to produce, or that it used some material that homeworld can't access anymore, or maybe there was a side effect that made it too dangerous to use, or something like that. Just dropping a game breaker like that and never mentioning it anymore just makes the Diamonds look like a bunch of idiots who didn't realise that time travel is OP.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

So...the feat was recalced from the new episode and the new yield is 5-B+ and FTL

[Paulo.junior.969]

^ If we divide the result equally to the three of them that's 548 Zettatons each. Planet level Diamonds confirmed?
