Why are spite/stomp Battles so alluring?

[Iceassassin25]

Let's talk about spite battles and why they can be fun and why they have an appeal to people in the vs community

So has anybody here posted a spite battle before? It does not have to have been a attentional spite battle it could have been a match up you believed was fair but it turned out to be one sided

And is there any spite battles you think are fun to see? For example seeing naruto getting T-posed on by Goku?

 

[TriforcePower1]

I think you're referring to both spites and stomps

 

[Blackcurrant91]

Alot of spite battles are unintentional from not understanding someones powers and weaknesses

 

[Iceassassin25]

I edited the title to reflect that

 

[Blackcurrant91]

Being objective about characters you really like can be difficult for some people.

 

[PaChi2]

I just like to see the world burn.

 

[TacticalNuke002]

I have posted a few, but I intended them as puzzles to be solved where I already know the solution.

For example, answer me this.

Diavolo lolstomps The Fateless One (at his strongest). How?

 

[Iceassassin25]

I remember doing a Overlord laharl vs Goku match up and it ended up being a stomp

I thought that since I was using the strongest version of Goku that it would be more even since I heard Zeno Goku (or was it Xeno goku) was really powerful and if his ap did not match laharl then his hax should even the playing field but it turned out to still be a stomp

 

[Blackcurrant91]

It's pretty easy to accidently make a stomp. Some characters ability interractions are pretty complex.

I don't know of Diavolo but i do know of the fateless one so i will counter that by saying the battle would not happen since the the fateless one has no fate and is not fated to fight Diavolo

 

[Andytrenom]

Spite cannot be unintentional. Because at least here, the term specifically refers to intentionally creating a matchup that one character has no chance at winning.

 

[Iceassassin25]

Okay well have you done any spite/stomp battles before?

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

Only stomp matches I've done are ones where it wasn't clear if they were stomp in the first place, with the debating helping settle its status as stomp.

 

[Starter_Pack]

I don't know about any unintentional stomp matches I've made, but I've made a few puzzlers and WTF matches before.

For instance, SCP-049 vs. The Empty Child or Yoshikage Kira vs. Frisk.

 

[Andytrenom]

This is the only one I remember.

 

[AKM sama]

The only spite/stomp thread I've made...

Wait I haven't even made a vs match thread yet...

What even am I doing on this site?

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

You failure

 

[Andytrenom]

You weren't one of us after all

 

[AKM sama]

Sad

 

[Starter_Pack]

How dare

 

[Iceassassin25]

My best post turned out to be a stomp battle

Still happy that Overlord Laharl now dabs on the whole Dragon ball verse though

 

[The_King_of_Prudence]

With Noise versus Altair, I somehow missed her Abstract Existence (without which, the fight arguably isn't a stomp).

 

[Wokistan]

I've made several stomps because I use verses like these. Especially with the destiny matches cause 5-C isn't the strongest tier them excluded.

I haven't made any spites, but I do make threads intending to argue for one of my characters. That's fine, what wouldn't be would be me skewing the match conditions to force a win for my guy.

 

[PaChi2]

Because using Doctor Doom with 10 years of prep is fun.

 

[Iceassassin25]

Doctor doom with infinite prep time vs Batman with negative infinite prep time would be fun

 

[TacticalNuke002]

Doom has way better feats.

And no one answered my puzzle question. How does Diavolo effortlessly stomp The Fateless One who may be vying for a spot in Top 5 6-Bs?

I countered your puzzle before though

Also how does a lowly jojo's character beat a chad like the fateless one?

 

[Sir_Ovens]

Sometimes people think that no one can beat a specific character.

And sometimes, you just gotta knock them down a peg.

 

[Starter_Pack]

My favorite kind of puzzle is trying to find ways of giving Thunder McQueen fair matches.

 

[Sir_Ovens]

The man just wants to die. Let him be.

 

[Iceassassin25]

Would Filthy Frank vs thunder McQueen be a stomp?

 

[TacticalNuke002]

Solution: Fateless One is Type 2 Acausal, which means that the moment Diavolo uses his time erasure, Fateless One gets accidentally EEed.

 

[Kisaragi_Megumi]

Any of this piece of crap against someone who higher than him

 

[Bobsican]

Pretty much any match that involves Dragon Ball (not Xenoverse) and someone that leads with good hax.

It never ends well...

 

[KnightOfSunlight]

God I learned that the hard way. Even relatively minor haxx can tip the balance out of Dragonball's favor.

 

[Wokistan]

They'd normally have the advantage of being really fast, but speed's almost always equalized, rip

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

If you dislike a character, it's cathartic. Simple as that.

 

[Akreious]

I mean... not really? Dragon Ball surprisingly lives up to it's reputation as being pure brute force, most of the time being stronger than the opponents they're matched with. Minor haxes aren't going to help if Goku can just blast your head off or something to that effect.

 

[Wokistan]

They work when they kill people and don't have travel time. Given that it's tier 2, stuff tends to be like that.

Also godly regen and such

Yeah...
