I think they SHOULD honestly.

The way we split up our 8-Cs and 9-Bs seems incredibly arbitrary. In most cases, it isn't consistent for them to be entire tiers apart from one another.

The current argument is that in most of DD and Punisher's stories, they're portrayed as peak human, a more realistic character in terms of strength when in comparison to his fellow street levels that are clearly supers, like Cap and Wolverine. So there is a difference.

I mean, everyone scale to HS cuz of other higher tier Street Levelers, I don't see why not doing the same to their AP

I guess it would be more accurate to say I think more characters should be 8-C. If we deem Daredevil and Punisher as 9-B due to their more consistent feats and scaling in that area, that is understandable.

But I feel like you could argue some of the others are more consistently portrayed as superhuman, ig. Just seems a bit strange.

Because that's just a placeholder from the MHS+ downgrade, there were a few more HS feats but they're still uncalculated. And yes, I find stupid everyone scaling from Elektra, she's clearly faster than most of other characters.

That's why I said most characters can be made a case. Moon Knight and Taskmaster for example, they're make far more sense as 8-C nowadays. I can get behind that.

And Wade has beaten Taskmaster too

And Wade has beated Taskmaster too

Beating TM once shouldn't be the justification for his 8-C, at best should be "Comparable to Wolverine."

Obviously.

it should be like "Superior to Taskmaster. Comparable to Captain America and Wolverine. Has fought Spider-Man, but is portrayed as inferior."

You lost me at "Superior to Taskmaster," lmao.

“Superior”

Now hold on hold on. Beating Taskmaster doesn't mean he’s physically stronger than he is. They’ve fought a couple of times in the comics, and I don't recall Deadpool ever being portrayed as having a physical advantage.

“Comparable to” would make more sense, in this instance.

There's only two things that prevent me from making a MK 8-C thread; laziness and the many Batman vs MK match ups in the future...
