Why is All Might so underpowered?

[Boc1991]

I Dont think that this is fun and games but just want people to now im not really that upset and just curious. What reason do you guys think is the main reason that All Might is underpowered, and has a losing streak within this Wiki? I personally believe its simply due to his powerset really only mainly using Super Strength and Super Speed, but what do you guys believe?

It's also the lack of showings of him fighting others on his level. Those he did fight he really didn't show much strategy anyway.

Yea, I agree. He only fought 2 people on his level that i remember, and he pretty much utilized strength solely.

 

[Wokistan]

Tiers means people don't generally have a huge AP advantage, and speed is often equal or he's slower. Due to how our site works abilities matter way more than those two.

 

[Konaguna]

He's fodder, like most of his verse

 

[Torlikoff]

):

Fodder is a relative term anyway. He'd fodderize other verses, but it doesn't mean much.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

He's fodder, like most of his verse

same can be said for alot of verses

 

[Wokistan]

Like 70% of fiction doesn't go above tier 9

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

Because he's Saitama. But weaker. Characters with only sheer strength as their notable thing in-universe. But take that away, and All-Might goes down easily.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

Superman is fodder, Goku is fodder, it's highly dependent on context

 

[Dziga]

If it makes you feel good, all but one of these matches were weakened All-Might so in reality at his prime he'd have only one loss.

 

[Torlikoff]

It's the same thing in his prime though, he's just the smash-y guy who's strong.

 

[Dziga]

There's a massive gap in Attack Potency tho.

 

[Konaguna]

All might was made to be a strong slumper made fodder though

 

[Torlikoff]

What is a 'strong slumper made fodder'?

 

[Boc1991]

I do believe that All Might would have lost all the fights that he has recorded as losses, Its just dissapointing watching MHA and seeing all the All Might hype and seeing all these losses lol.

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

If it makes you feel better, All Might used to have a win against Machoke.

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

But I'd like Machoke to win, so it doesn't make me feel better.

 

[Boc1991]

Lol I actually remember that win, but its just humerous how All Might is hyped, and than exetremly underpowered lmao.

 

[Konaguna]

What is a 'strong slumper made fodder'?

Slumper= a person who's main way of attacking is through sheer physical force and is usually known to be very adept at utilizing it

So basically all might was portrayed as a strong phyisal fighter but was just used to portray how weak he's become

 

[Torlikoff]

Do you mean slugger? I've never heard anyone use that word before.

 

[Konaguna]

Nah, I always used the word slumper, never adopted the term slugger tbh

 

[Goodyfresh]

He's just a standard Flying Brick except that he can't even do the Flying part. Lol. Pretty much all he's got going for him are strength, speed, and durability.

Also, his tactics in combat aren't anything that great from what we've seen (he's always just doing a plain old full-frontal assault), and he hasn't had that many showings as a fighter in the course of the series.

Finally, he has no resistances other than to power absorption.

 

[Yobo_Blue]

I think it's something that really highlights a minor problem with our system.

Most sites like to do their information collection after they make a match, with theme and theatrics being the main idea. Here though, we almost always know it in advance, which changes how we have to make matches, causing us to base it around the power rather then the character, which means that someone powerful in verse is far less powerful outside of it.

 

[Wokistan]

There's also the nature of stuff being AP stomps and Speed stomps, but haxxed characters usually get put against other haxxed characters.

 

[Flashlight237]

I think one Wiki user claimed that All-Might does have something better going for him in the movie. I dunno what since the movie has yet to be released on DVD even in Japan and the wiki doesn't allow t******s to be used for determining the nature of feat.

 

[Torlikoff]

In the movie he does actually use his air manip in combat somewhat effectively, it's kinda neat.

 

[The_Calaca]

Many OP characters in many verses are kinda underpowered here actually. The way this wiki handle things make them weaker when compared to other verses and characters.

 

[SomebodyData]

Its not how the wiki handles things, its just, well logic. When facing a guy with similar feats, it tends to be abilities that matter at the end, espically when they're game changers.

 

[The_Calaca]

You're right. I meant that in the wiki the OP character doesn't get the same treatment as in the series.

 

[Wokistan]

Due to the tiering system. All might is OP because most of the verse is tier 9-8, but something like that's not gonna fly here. Same for Saitama.

 

[The_Wright_Way]

Ironically, characters weaker than him in verse tend to have a better track record, due to them having more variety, skill, more useful powers, etc. All Might doesn't really have the opportunity to develop these things sense he's top of the line and stomps 99% of the verse, meaning he can just punch people into submission. Given the context of this wiki, he's just a tier 7 guy with shock waves. He's suddenly put in a situation where people of equal to near equal strength are common and he can't keep up. Everyone else is used to this, and they can just fight as they normally do and perform just as well as normal. (ignoring hax of course).

 

[The_Calaca]

It's like Dragon Ball characters. The most poweful ones have a bad time having a good winning record while Mr. Satan has a neat record.
