Why atomic X doesn’t scale alien x upgrades

Status
Not open for further replies.
which is the problem, there's no basis for that "default".

your stance is essentially "logically they must be stronger"
Yes because that's logically going to be the case when uniting more than one thing together. 2 things combined gives more than 1. More = stronger...

Until something says otherwise on that. Not even about numbers but the basic common sense of what combining something means.

Anyway, this fusion semantics discussion is irrelevant when its not the issue here anymore. The thread should be closed.
 
It's litteraly assuming that one of the components has negative power, which isn't the case at all.
it's an example that "combinations" aren't inherently buffs, nothing more.

You can't assume the combination of DNA from 2 widely different species will always result in a stronger
The disparity in feats between Alien X and Atomic X is in the magnitudes of infinite, which demonstrates that Atomic X cannot/has not displayed the ability to use Alien X's abilities in any capacity really.To assume he can when he's fundamentally a different being than either of his components, percentage wise is less celestialsapien than a human is a monkey is ridiculous.

Given displayed feats and showings, Atomix having an adverse effect on celestialsapien abilities even if they buff his own (i.e. atomix<atomic X<alien X), it's not an unfounded assumption that Atomic X doesn't scale to Alien X, it's more likely he doesn't, and the only counter-argument is "well why would he be weaker?" - which in and of itself is an assumption.
 
Atomic X should keep his high 5-A rating. His best feat is one shotting Vilgax. OV Vilgax lost all of his powers from UAF and became his fodder OS self again. If street tiers from the future are able to hurt him then he’s simply not as strong as Alien X.
However, Atomic X is a non factor to my Alien X downgrade, and was only supporting evidence. Alien X is still low 2-C.
 
it's an example that "combinations" aren't inherently buffs, nothing more.
It isn't at all.
A fusion is two things being added to each others. None of the two magically have negative power, so the power is at very least the same as Alien X.
 
All of this was literally debunked in the downgrade thread already.
It literally wasn't you are making it up.


Fusion aliens being weaker than the individual aliens is pure head canon and using what happened in the OG series to compare it to Atomic X is a 100% false equivalence.
The fact that Feats alone shows otherwise, the fact that WoG alone disagree with you, the fact that Atomic x doesn't even have any feats suggesting that he is even close to Alien x in the first place ?
Atomic X on the other hand is being made by Ben's Biomnitrix, which is an Omnitrix that he specifically designed to create fusions of the aliens, and because of that, fusions made by that are not put in the same boat as the former.
You are literally assuming that a fusion between an infinitely weaker character and an infinitely stronger character would make the fusion stronger without feats backing them up, this isn't the same thing when it comes to a fusion between 2 characters with similiar AP and durability as the former need feats while the latter doesn't , that's also ignoring the fact that the main reason why Ben doesn't use Alien x because using him is simply to risky for the sake of the universe due to it's immense power so if that's the case then Ben 10k isn't stupid to make a fusion stronger than Alien x if he already think that using Alien x is really risky for the Universe.

So get some evidence first that suggests fusions in Ben 10 are weaker than their individual parts, and actual evidence instead of using a malfunction as the basis. Do that and then you might get somewhere.
How about feats >>>>>>>> all what you are saying?

No offense but all the Proof and evidence is against you really

And im not. Atomic X doesn't scale (which Zamasu kindly gave a reminder of here to give clarity) but that decision had nothing to do with this weird ridiculous consensus on fusions being brought here.

There's no WoG at all and there never was.

And these said feats which can easily just be outliers in the other direction. Which again, was brought up in said thread.

Yes because that's the basic premise for fusion that you would see by using a concept called common sense.

Adding something to something else is always going to logically be assumed to be stronger. Or at the bare minimum, being in the same realm of power and capability. Assuming it decreases is ridiculous.
that's also ignoring the fact that the main reason why Ben doesn't use Alien x because using him is simply to risky for the sake of the universe due to it's immense power so if that's the case then Ben 10k isn't stupid to make a fusion stronger than Alien x if he already think that using Alien x is really risky for the Universe.
Null argument. Ben has already shown to be willing to use Alien X when the situation calls for it in Omniverse. And even then, Fail Safe.

See above.

Atomic X was agreed to not scale in the end, but not because of this head canon on fusions.

It doesn't it's like you are trying to combine a « +∞ » with « - ∞ » and you expected to have a « +∞ »
 
. Atomic X doesn't scale
You are right about that.


There's no WoG at all and there never was.
There is the question got deleted for some reasons but the main question was like this :

Does fusions with Alien x and an other Alien make them weaker?

The Creator : yes, by definition

And these said feats which can easily just be outliers in the other direction. Which again, was brought up in said thread.
Nothing proves that they are Outliers because Atomic x never had a single feat putting him above Alien x nor he even even demonstrated any of AX abilities in the first place.

Ben only used Alien x against Universal threats anything exept of that he doesn't as using him is simply too risky for the Universe
Atomic X was agreed to not scale in the end, but not because of this head canon on fusions
Atomic x was agreed to not scale in the end because he doesn't have the necessary feats to put him above Alien x while in fact he does have anti feats and on top of that why would Ben 10k chose a Universal being to face Maltruant and Vilgax who are nowhere near to that level while he has many other Aliens who could've done the job ? That alone doesn't make any sense

Which is shitty evidence that means nothing here. This is not an actual legitimate answer, its a simple leading question asked on twitter to get a quick one off answer that isn't series.

We don't take statements like that as evidence for anything here.

Not using abilities =/= not being in his tier.

And they are outliers off of the simple fact that even if you exclude Alien X from this, Atomix on it's own is a High 5-A alien. Kevin, Gwen and Ken, who are all nowhere remotely close to that (besides Gwens Anodite form specifically), were fighting Maltruent. Making the entire scaling from that fight messy. Using it as an argument to say Atomic-x is an outlier is very very weak.

Oh wow, a simple guide as evidence. Cool.

Too bad it gets completely shut down by the fact that Ben 10K, whom you yourself agree isn't stupid (he's actually a genius version of Ben), actively went with using Atomic-X against the CTB. A 2-B weapon.

So again, this still fits Bens MO of using Alien X in character when the moment calls for it.

See above for all of this.
 
Considering that there isn't any new information given compared to the last thread and that there is no proposed revision, does anyone oppose closing this thread?

A Twitter statement made by a very credible creator and the fact that it's supported by the series

Or it could just means that Kevin, Ken (Ken is rated as 5-A btw) and Gwen fighting Maltruant is a complete outlier? Not only that but I don't even remember Kevin fighting Maltruant in the first place exept of future Gwen which could be a feat for here instead.

You are saying this and it's like Ben 10k knew anything about the CTB and what it can do, him using Atomic x in that instance isn't surprising considering he even used him against Vilgax and Maltruant who are nowhere near to Low 2-C.

So again, this still fits Bens MO of using Alien X in character when the moment calls for it.
It doesn't? Fighting Maltruant and Vilgax is something that calls for a low 2-C being? Lol this alone shows that Atomic x being Low 2-C is a complete joke, at best Atomic x should AP should be rated as Unknown due to his feats being kind inconsistent
 
Don't matter to me if Atomic X is high 5-A or low 2-C. Maybe I want universal+ Future Aliens >:^)

^if Atomic-X scales to Alien X then Future Kai scales since she has 0 anti-feats and wields Excalibur which is said in lore would make her invincible.

@everyone else we need a general thread to see what the default assumption is for DNA fusion, since I don't think there's a single case like Ben 10. Which means that both sides have burden of proof. That said we kinda resolved this issue already by looking at Atomic-X's hax instead. It might become relevant tho since in April Alien X/a random Celestialsapien is gonna appear in the reboot, which means that scaling Alien V (Vilgax fused with Celestialsapien DNA) and by extension Reboot Way Big (and by extension Original Series Way Big) to low 2-C is an option...
 
A Twitter statement made by a very credible creator and the fact that it's supported by the series
A Twitter statement made by a very credible creator that isn't serious and is just done to get the fan to shut up by telling them what they want to hear. That is not a serious answer.

And it isn't supported by the series, because it was never a thing in the first place. This isn't complicated to understand.

You kinda just supported my point. Kevin Ken and Gwen fighting Maltruent is what's the outlier. Not Atomic-X

Lol this alone shows that Atomic x being Low 2-C is a complete joke, at best Atomic x should AP should be rated as Unknown due to his feats being kind inconsistent
Love how you conveniently try and ignore the possibility that Ben using Atomic-X against them can also mean Ben wanted to finish them off as quickly as possible by going with what's (supposed to be anyway) his strongest alien / one of his strongest.

And from that, it wouldn't be a rebuttal against what I've said.
 
Kevin Ken and Gwen fighting Maltruent is what's the outlier
I don’t remember Kevin fighting him (Rook did though but I don’t think he damaged him, same as base Ben 10000). Ken was off-screen IIRC so we have no idea what happened (+ he got a suit for Paradox and the only other guy he fought is Future Doctor Animo who we still have at High 5-A, I’m gonna downgrade him though) and Gwen should have a variable tier, her shield gets broken by mid-tiers, she catches the punches of top tiers, blocks attacks from Ultimate Aggregor, fights Ultimate Kevin multiple times, has a true form that makes her the strongest being on the planet (in UA) and she even slightly hurt Dagon by powering up Chromastone to shoot beams at him. + she also targeted one of the weaker spots of Maltruant’s body + Future Gwen also fought Future Doctor Animo (who’s still High 5-A) so she has no real anti-feats for the moment either.

Literally no proof about that.


nd it isn't supported by the series, because it was never a thing in the first place. This isn't complicated to understand.
It's supported by the series as shown were Atomic x got lol stomped by Maltruant.

Kevin never faught Maltruant, Ken is literally rated as High 5-A which is consistent with him keeping up with Maltruant who is High 5-A for stomping Atomic x as for Gwen case I really don't what are you talking about she was literally getting stomped by Maltruant and she couldn't even damage him hell in fact he was literally blitzing here and dodging all of her Attacks without even using Time stop.


Love how you conveniently try and ignore the possibility that Ben using Atomic-X against them can also mean Ben wanted to finish them off as quickly as possible by going with what's (supposed to be anyway) his strongest alien / one of his strongest.
Which is again out of character for Ben to do that, Ben doesn't operate like that in a fight like at all and anyway that doesn't really change anything tbh
 
no proof about that.
The answer itself is proof enough. A few word answers isn’t a serious answer, and we’ve literally gone over this issue so many times here on this site to explain why it isnt.

We don’t accept anything from authors that isn’t from an actual interview or platform specifically made for them to give fans answers that the series itself doesn’t do its job in answering. Not some quick Yes or No response made on social media.
It's supported by the series as shown were Atomic x got lol stomped by Maltruant.
Which is inconsistent scaling as a whole that isn’t an outlier for Atomic X. I said this before.

And this isn’t evidence of some magical in-universe Standard of fusion aliens being weaker is what my point entailed here. Using that as an argument is bullshit.
Kevin never faught Maltruant, Ken is literally rated as High 5-A which is consistent with him keeping up with Maltruant who is High 5-A for stomping Atomic x as for Gwen case I really don't what are you talking about she was literally getting stomped by Maltruant and she couldn't even damage him hell in fact he was literally blitzing here and dodging all of her Attacks without even using Time stop.
Or Ken and Gwen are the ones who’s rating is suspect and needs to be revised. Which is what my point was about.

Which is again out of character for Ben to do that, Ben doesn't operate like that in a fight like at all and anyway that doesn't really change anything tbh
And since when was this not in character? Ben 10K is a genius, there is 0 reason for him to not do something as efficient as that.

Either way, none of this is changing what’s the downgrade entailed. Alien X is Low 2-C and nothing here changes what happened.

The thread needs to be closed.
 
Seems pretty serious to me

Also I got more arguments when it comes to Skurd and DNA if this ever comes up again... which it inevitably will, especially thanks to Zamasu’s recent exploits but you guys don’t have to deal with that.

Also Alien X’s type 2 acausality is from Twitter, you have like no reason to assume Duncan is trolling or not being serious at all. We even have confirmation he likes these kinds of questions (or at least he did).

As for the future aliens scaling: follow me

And yeah close this thread then.

Using another example that's also possibly bad too isn't an argument as your just putting that into question too.

We've had threads here that have made it perfectly clear that social media answers that are no more than a few words are not viable evidence at all. It's far from what an actual serious answer would be in the form of an interview answer, a platform for specifically answering fan questions, or otherwise.

Especially given the fact that this question was oddly specific as a leading question to draw some very specific bit of information out of the author.
 
All right fair, acausality was more elaborated on than this anyways. But like since burden of proof is on both sides I still think it’s better than nothing.
 
I want to add a couple things. Aggregor was going to absorb a baby Celestialsapien. Osmosians absorb 1/10 the power of their source of energy. I find it odd how Aggregor would be considered "omnipotent" with Celestialsapien DNA mixed with five other alien's DNA but Atomic X would be a measly High 5-A. That’s pretty nonsensical. If you want to talk anti feats, Maltruant (who has an awful profile) is the only person to ever harm Atomic X. None of the future characters are even able to harm Maltruant. Seriously watch the fight, he completely blitzed and manhandled everyone on the battlefield. Even if you want to say they can stagger him, they're still comparable to Kevin 11k, who should be 1/10 Alien X because he has all of Ben 10K's abilities. It's even consistent when you consider Kevin 11k is superior to this version of Kevin, who should also be 1/10 Alien X because at the time Ben had access to Alien X and he wasn’t locked like he was in the Ultimatrix. Also before anyone call it an outlier, it was kevin's plan to momentarily capture Ben, so he was definitely holding back and wasn’t trying to kill him.

I think the future Aliens should be low 2-C with Maltruant, Atomic X and Alien X being at least low 2-C. Low 2-C for future characters is hilariously more consistent than High 5-A by a long shot. And it's not like they fully scale to Alien X anyway. Call me a mad man, and I wouldn’t blame you. After all It's a Mad Mad Ben World.

How about no?
 
Wow lol you actually went for Low 2-C. I can’t fully debunk what you say (in fact I might be able to help remove the inconsistencies), could you just give a scan of Kevin 11,000 actually saying he absorbed Ben’s abilities?

He's stronger than this version of Kevin, who absorbed the omnitrix when Alien X was active.
 
The Omnitrix has playlists, OV Kevin clearly only absorbed 1 playlist consisting of 10 aliens. Also backed up by Swampfire being capable of scarring him.
 
Kevin was holding back and why would Kevin only have 1 playlist when he previously absorbed all of them? Also whether or not the future characters are low 2-C doesn’t matter because non of them are capable of harming Maltruant.
 
Kevin was holding back
Prove he can hold back his durability.
why would Kevin only have 1 playlist when he previously absorbed all of them
Ultimatrix works differently apparently, not the same kind of protection as the Omnitrix would be the cause I assume. Visually UA Kevin has access to more than 10 aliens while OV Kevin seems to cap at 10.

Gwen harmed him slightly, although she can get a variable tier. Kai scales. That’s about it tho yeah.

Celestialsapien DNA lol

Visually? His design is like that because of the new aliens added to Ben’s arsenal.
Gwen harmed him slightly, although she can get a variable tier. Kai scales. That’s about it tho yeah.
Gwen was able to knock him back and he was launched pretty far because of the lack of gravity.

Non of that even matter technically. All that matters is that Maltruant is low 2-C. The other future characters being low 2-C doesn’t matter much imho.
 
Celestialsapien DNA lol
That’d only work if you say CS’s can do literally anything...
Visually? His design is like that because of the new aliens added to Ben’s arsenal.
Why would his design not reflect all of Ben’s other aliens he has access to according to you? Even Kevin 11,000 has Heatblast traits and Atomix is a newer alien. These aliens are just in the same playlist and he absorbed them.

He said aah when Gwen hit his center-piece IIRC.

Cue Annihilaargh being baseline low 2-C and oneshotting Maltruant? Jk, I’ll leave the honors to someone else.
 
You need to give reasons why.
Assuming that this isn't obvious, not only your arguments makes 0 sense but also the fact that Maltruant got one shot by the Annihilaargh (ignoring also that most of it's energy was absorbed by Feedback ) already debunk your whole argument
 
DownrightDecisiveAzurevasesponge-size_restricted.gif

Screw your reverse psychology!

The Annihilaargh seems to warp space-time when it hits Maltruant so it ignores durability. Blame Nia!
