Eh I kinda don't agree with that because that would make Vlad nearly x100 stronger than Danny and while he is superior to him is not to THAT degree, I remember there were times Danny gave him a fight.
Agreed. I remember a few times where Danny legitimately beat the hell out of him.
Here's the literal history of their confrontations.
Season 1, Episode 7 "Bitter Reunions"
This was the first Danny and Vlad "fought" and Vlad stomped him effortlessly.
Danny then tries to punch Vlad but said punch is stopped by Vlad without effort and Danny gets thrown into a wall and got dazed. Danny then states "Wow, fast. Alright, better stop fooling around" and then charges but Vlad just reachs out and grabs his throat, stopping Danny cold.
After some more talking, Vlad blasts Danny, then blocks all of Danny's energy attacks with an ecto shield, then proceeds to blast his with several duplicates causing serious damage and then beats Danny into unconsciousness with ease.
They then fight one last time, Vlad easily dodges Danny's attack, blocks and absorbs his ghost ray and then Ghost Assault Vehicle takes him down.
So even when Danny stated he wasn't gonna fool around anymore, Vlad still kicked his ass.
Season 1, Episode 17 "Maternal Insticts"
This is the second "fight" Danny and Vlad had.
Vlad blasts Danny with a single energy beam sending him into a wall and visibly damaging him.
Later Danny tricks Vlad and puts the Specter Deflector on him which greatly weakness him. Danny even comments and states it's now a "fair fight", however despite this, Vlad was still capable of reacting to Danny and could harm him with his attacks.
Vlad comments that he's still more powerful than Danny but upon trying to duplicate himself, the Specter Deflector screws with his powers and messes with technique. Danny then beats up Vlad who conceded but still wasn't beaten to the point were he was knocked out of ghost form or had any visible injuries.
Season 1, Episode 19 "The Million Dollar Ghost"
This is the third and final "fight" Danny and Vlad have in season 1.
Vlad surprised Danny, chocks him and then throws him which briefly dazed him. Danny charges Vlad but the later creates a shield and Danny runs right into it, then Vlad creates a construct and knocks Danny away and again, he gets briefly dazed.
Finally, Danny charges Vlad and dodges two ghost rays from the later but upon reaching Vlad and attempting to punch him, Vlad grabs Danny's arm with no difficulty the shocks him while stating "Oh please Daniel, must I actually defeat you with one hand tied behind my back? Before you realized, your outmatched". Danny was about to pass out before Vlad stopped him from changing back then threw him away.
Season 2, Episode 4 - 5 "Reign Storm"
This is the first time, Danny and Vlad "fight" in season 2.
Vlad shows up at Danny's school, Danny blasts Vlad with his ghost ray out of the school, the two land outside, Danny charges Vlad and once again to no one's surprise, Vlad grabs Danny by the throat and stops him cold.
Vlad then states "Calm down Daniel, I didn't come here to fight you, I have more important things to worry about."
Later in the episode the two have a discussion and Vlad admits that he almost "doesn't consider Danny a threat". This angers Danny and his blasts human Vlad with a ghost ray, then Danny transformed and punched human Vlad and sent him several stories into the air and slamming him into a billboard. However this does no damage to Vlad and he actually has a smile on his face...
Danny tackles Vlad to the ground, the later is still smiling, they stand up, Vlad back hands Danny and that ends the "fight".
Season 2, Episode 11 "Secret Weapons"
This was the next encounter Vlad and Danny have.
After Ecto-Skeleton Jazz fake fights Danny, Jazz surprises Vlad and blasts him into the stadium stands yet despite being 100x more powerful than her base which is already comparable to 6-C characters (which would make her Low 6-B), she caused no visible damage and only irritated him.
Now it's not stated she was going all out but she couldn't even damage him and he was in human form!. Danny then appears below him and blasts him in the face with a ghost ray which sends him into the air then down to the ground and the only thing Vlad does is hold his head in irritation but recovers in seconds and received no visible damage...
Season 2, Episode 17 "Kindred Spirits"
This is their third and final encounter in season 2.
Vlad blasts Danny into the ground, the two engage in close combat with Danny dodging three of Vlad's punches but Vlad lands his final punch which sends Danny flying. They then enter a beam collision and to no surprise, Vlad's winning, Danny is visibly seen struggling and even calls out to Dani for help.
Later in the episode, both Danny and Dani hit Vlad with a ghost ray at the same time and seemingly knock him unconscious but in a few seconds he gets back up with no visible injuries. Danny then uses the Ghostly Wail and knocks him down but he gets back up in a few seconds...
It takes them putting the Specter Deflector on him and the Dani could knock him out.
Season 3, Episode 1 "Eye for an Eye"
This is their first "fight" in season 3.
Danny actually starts beating Vlad up and manages to dodge his attacks. Danny even comments about Vlad "losing his edge" but this is all just for show...
Vlad states "Fool, do you really think I'm this weak? I'm more powerful then you'll ever know and even now my power increases, look!"
The screen then moves over to show that Vlad duplicated himself over a dozen freaking times!. Danny then tries to stop the duplicates from overshadowing the people but Vlad flies over and hits him once which knocks him away and caused him pain.
So even after Vlad weakend himself to a massive degree, he was still playing with Danny and the later couldn't even do visible damage.
Later in the episode, Danny fights a duplicate of Vlad and said duplicate states "I'm merely a single duplication and still far more powerful than you!". He then blasts Danny into a wall the proceeds to beat Danny up and for the hundredth time, grab him by the throat and chock him. Danny couldn't even break free from the duplicates grip.
Season 3, Episode 2 "Infinite Realms"
This is their second encounter in season 3.
Danny actually fights Vlad evenly up until the end were Vlad fires several blasts and one hits Danny, causing him pain.
This was the only time they had an even fight yet there is no evidence Vlad was going all out especially given their previous encounters and what happens in their next encounter.
Season 3, Episode 11 "D-Stabilized"
This is their third encounter in season 3.
A duplicate of Vlad hits Danny with a single ghost ray and knocks him unconscious...
That's literally it, Danny gets one hit k.o by a duplicate of Vlad which is weaker than the original which is backed up by the previous time a single duplicate beat Danny easily.
Season 3, Episode 12 - 13 "Phantom Planet"
This is their final "fight" in the series.
Danny dodges several ghost rays from Vlad, Vlad then deflects a ghost ray from Danny but it hit something next to him which stunned him long enough for Danny to freeze him, steal the infi-map, the retreat.
Vlad then breaks free from the ice and chases them but after accidentally hitting his satellite, he stops chasing them and that ends the battles between the two.
Danny didn't even beat Vlad, the fight didn't finish because Danny ran away.
Conclusion
Vlad stomps Danny and the later is nowhere near the other in terms of power.
I don't know were people get this vague idea that Danny could fight Vlad or even harm him but it's the biggest lie about the characters I've ever seen. Vlad casually stomped Danny throughout the entire series to such a degree he comments how easy it is and Danny has never visibly harmed him without aid.
Even Vlad's duplicates are stated to be far stronger than Danny despite being weaker than the real Vlad. We've seen these duplicates casually destroy Danny in combat and even knock him unconscious with a single attack. The stomp is so bad, Vlad duplicated himself over a dozen times and made Danny think he was weak and Danny still couldn't do "visible" harm and said weakened Vlad could still do damage to Danny.
Vlad's always been in a different league than Danny. Danny had to use the Specter Deflector to weaken Vlad and only then did Danny consider it a "fair fight" and even then Vlad was still comparable to Danny in some regard. He's stated he really doesn't consider Danny a threat and even in human form Danny's blows do nothing to him.
So I ask, when throughout the entire series is Danny "consistently" shown capable of fighting Vlad and as some people say "beating the heck out of him" in a fair fight? I'll make it easy for you and tell you that he can't. If Vlad truly wanted Danny dead, he could kill him in one shot. We have direct statement from Vlad himself that he's far more powerful than even Danny knows and given what we've seen, he's not lying. So until you can prove Danny is comparable to Vlad definitively, nothing suggests he can't be around 100x more powerful than Danny.
Too big of a relative increase for only one feat.
This isn't an argument because Vlad has no anti-feats and he stomps every other 6-C character in the verse via showings since everyone is comparable to Danny and Vlad effortlessly stomps Danny. Harming Vortex isn't an outlier for Vlad, it simply help proves he's far above the other characters that he's shown capable of stomping with weaker versions of himself. Vlad even states he's far stronger than we know so there isn't a problem here.
Also if he was that strong he wouldn't gotten defeated by Pariah so easily.
Pariah being able to one shot Vlad doesn't mean anything since base Pariah Dark is far more powerful than Vortex. It's literally stated that base Pariah Dark was so powerful that "only he" could control the power from both the crown and ring.
So this argument that Vlad cannot be Low 6-B because he was stomped by Pariah Dark who's far stronger than Vortex doesn't work.
