Oh boy, shit just got real... (Also hi Earl, long time no see)

And there goes the entire thread.Ikki
The splice into categories might allow some people who are very good at sword stuff but not that skilled in other areas more of a fighting chance against Ikki.I mean, any reason Ikki can't go for 1st? Ikki used to be the 1st back then, do we got some new black horse?
Nowhere really, Im not really debating at all pretty much, just work, hanging out in discord, some gaming and movies. Which is why i hopped on here, just to debate a bit since it's been a while.Ah I see.Where do you hang out now to debate btw? Kinda wanna do Ben vs Ikki again.
Well well, someone's scared of the goat himself. All the legends and gods in the list are scared of some kid with a sword and an abusive dad? hehI hereby ban Ikki Kurogane from all future discussions.
I'm really not sure what constitutes a good ranged feat.With just five spots the categories like sword users and firearm users feel really packed.
Makoto probably should have a place in the bow users, though I would leave the listing of his feats to @YungManzi since he is rereading the story and I forgot various things for the long time since I readed the novel.
^Chapter 28[Its fine, just tell me where I should be aiming at for the Rubee-eye, please] (Makoto)
“Uwa… This guy intends to shoot without even knowing the range of a bow!”
___________
“… The weakness of the Rubee-eye, if I remember correctly, its the abdomen-desu” (Toa)
________
The head and the abdomen huh.
Hmph, with ‘how close’ they are, there is no way for me to miss.
_________
I am of course, used to moving enemies.
I prepare my bow. There are still a lot of arrows that the dwarfs gave me. There is no problems with this equipment.
(Hey hey, Toa?!)
(Shut up! It looks like he is concentrating) (Toa)
(No, like I am telling you, its impossible. This distance is something only magic can manage)
___________
The distance is around a 100 meters huh.
I have finished locking on all the enemies. Lets begin with the bees.
“… Fu~”
I quietly let out the air in my lungs. And then, the first arrow. From the two Rubee-eye that were leading the group, one was brought down.
Following that, another one. Of course, the bee from just now had a hole in its abdomen and fell to the ground.
3, 4, 5…
I was smoothly locking them on and bringing them down.
From my back I could hear things like ‘No way’ or ‘What is going on?’, did you see that you bastards?
Do you understand now? When I use a bow I am pretty incredible you know?
_______
The enemy was surprised by the first attack so they stopped their movements, by the time I began my moves it was already over.
I didn’t let a single one get close. I defeated them all with one hit! Don’t underestimate the super-strong long range class!
I was thinking in how he was trained for one of the best martial artist in the world in the bow, how he even know cqc with a bow, how even before in Earth he was so absurdly good with the bow that her teacher forvive him from ever join a competition, how not only him but everyone (even people that didn't knew him or knew anything about archery) that saw him before let go a arrow were completely sure that he would hit his target (along with think that in that moment he is divinely beautiful like an art of work, this despite how his appareance is average or below average), how despite a natural lack of talent with the bow do to pure constant training his ability with it reached a point were he created a new skill (something that amezed the gods that control countless worlds and who stated that something like that have ever happened two time in history and by Alexander The Great and Erich Hartmann, though in their cases they just modified their natural talent to create a skill while Makoto create one with no talent), how regardless of be wounded can hit his target even from hundreds of meters of distance despite obstacles in the middle (this obviously before the point were his ability with the bow reached the hax level and he become able to hit his target regardless of distance and even hit it before let go the arrow and still hit the objetive), his concentration before let go of a arrow is to the point that his ego die and is reborn in a way that make sure he will hit his target, etc.I'm really not sure what constitutes a good ranged feat.
Tbh, I skipped the earth chapters both of the last times I read this and haven't read them in legit like 5-7 years (Earth flashbacks are just really uninteresting imo, even more so than the mundane Asora building chapters; because at least we see characters that actually have presence in those) . Not at the gods coming to Asora part yet, but I do remember them being impressed by his skills.~Snip
Things like this were what I was thinking to his skill feats and asked you because you can more easily get the scans.
With his feats he can go to second place, specially since there is no one taking the spot.
In the extra chapters is given some interesting info about Makoto back in Earth, which is actually good for some feats this, the gods part I'm talking is actually from the extra chapters (I believe it was just before Susanoo and co visited Makoto and then learned from the sisters destiny about how he created his own new destiny and skill with the bow without talent).Tbh, I skipped the earth chapters both of the last times I read this and haven't read them in legit like 5-7 years (Earth flashbacks are just really uninteresting imo, even more so than the mundane Asora building chapters; because at least we see characters that actually have presence in those) .

Yes it is.Is his trackless step skill-based? If so that's the level of ridiculous that Planck is describing.
Edit: Oh wait Earl took the easy way out and just explained why Ikki is better at doing the most impressive feats that the current nr.1 has... guess that works too.
Oh well shit, so basically this guy is so skilled that with his movement he uses like social influencing to convince people he is unimportant right?Yes it is.
So things like beat Fate and probability hax with skill should be the kind of feats you're looking for.....Is that it? Hope I don't sound like I'm dissing Ikki but that's a lot more grounded than I expected. Like, I thought I'd be hearing "used a twig with 8-B force to kill a 5-A" levels of silliness
Not really, there's silliness and then thers outright hax, but you claim that what you've said about Ikki means he outright beats the No. 1 and....eeeh?So things like beat Fate and probability hax with skill should be the kind of feats you're looking for.
Thank god ikki hasn't done anything like that before, amirite.
Ning does more or less the same and gets to the point of dissecting, mastering and improving them with slight contemplation.Ok ok, lemme start some fun here, going by https://vsbattles.com/threads/return-of-the-most-skilled-thread.134475/page-5#post-4766766 this post, going over point by point.
-Classic skill copying, Ikki does that and perfects the style beyond even the original owners, he doesn't stop at learning the essence.
Ikki admittedly has Ning beat in the feats department for IR. Ning can defend himself while his soul is comatose but nothing really special beyond that.-Sounds like IR, Ikki does complex sword skills mid fight unconscious.
Yeah, same.-140%, ikki achieved ittou shura.
-Multiple weapon mastery, since this is about swords i'll skip
Ning has 500,000 mastered sword arts from the best swordsmen in all of the cosmos and integrated them all into his swordplay.-64, ikki has 128 perfected sword arts all of which he's fully mastered and learned the entire history of (cus for some reason he does that)
This is hard for me since while Ning can do it as well, I'm not confident in discerning where skill ends and powers begin.-Body control, ikki controls the vectors, blood, muscles, energy flowing through it, can even choose what his brain perceives. He kinda out here.
Ning can tell one's skill and ability with a glance but for learning he does have to see it once I think.-Deduced information from 2 sentences, time to bring up the "ikki learning styles from touching thighs meme" again.
Since you think so then I won't address this as well.-Fighting 23 people, i mean ikki fought his clon---cough i mean that's scaling so not a good way to judge skill.
Ning creates his own sword arts as well as sword arts perfectly suited for others just by observing them a bit and hands them out as gifts.-Ikki has also created his own moves, all secret sword arts are self made.
No, it really shouldn't. I illustrated the example as something that still showcases aspects of skill (like pressure pointing or out-precisioning far more powerful opponents) despite being rather exaggerated.so performing hax with skill could land you a spot on the list?
No hax, he beat hax with skill, not achieved hax.Not really, there's silliness and then thers outright hax,
Oh, I'm not saying Ikki is hax, just that we shouldn't look at outright hax feats and count them as skill.No hax, he beat hax with skill, not achieved hax.
Dante (DMC)'s not quantifiable.
