Why is Boros FTL?

He upscales from Flashy Flash probably
- 3,010
- 3,467
From what I saw, he scaled above gery whos 90% Sol with his attack speed I think
- 16,923
- 11,975
That doesn't mean he should be FTL. At best they'd be "At Least Rel+." Or outright SoL.
If that's the reason why he's FTL he really should be downgraded.
- 3,010

Boros scaled to FTL because Saitama viewed Boros as an impressive foe while treated the likes of Geryuganshoop as a joke
thats what it says on the profile

I'm pretty sure he upscales from Saitama's feat against Gery

We don't even accept Gery to be Relativistic+ completely because Murata is a dodgy WoG.
- 540

Which is exactly why its "possibly". If Murata wasn't a "dodgy WoG" then Gery would have probably been straight up Rel+ attack speed. All speed ratings mentioned here are "possibly" simply because Saitama treated Gery as a complete and utter joke. I don't see how they couldn't be "possibly FTL", Saitama treated someone with Rel+ speed as complete fodder and Boros is far more powerful than said fodder, i feel like that's enough for a "possibly" rating. Of course, if they were solid ratings that would be a problem but as they are right now personally im fine with them. However, if everyone else agrees that they should be removed or changed to "possibly SoL" then im fine with that as well.

I feel a "possibly higher" is more appropriate.

I'm in agreement with Null here.

Fine by me.

Wasn't that just cause he aim dodges?

Looked again Yeah you are right
Orochi did managed to tag him iirc but eh

Don't get ahead of yourself.
As far as i remember the reason why he is possibly FTL is because he treated intercepting a Rel+ in short distance as a joke which yield an FTL results, while he, didn't to Boros.
- 3,010
- 3,467
imagine boros being MHS+ in MB
- 29,954

Based on what I'm seeing in this thread, Boros should not have a FTL rating.
- 4,083
- 2,887
Uh when saitama intercepted the rel+ rocks?
Yeah there is an ftl calc for it https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:USklaverei/Saitama_playing_with_stones
Boros was confident to keep up with this even in his armored state

The possibly Relativistic+ rocks.
- 4,083
- 2,887
Yeah ik they only Possible rel+
Saitama himself is only Possible ftl
- 2,280
- 1,850
Because he was able to keep up with and land hits on a casual Satiama, who blocked Gery's near lightspeed attack, which was already calced at 4c.
Yes I know we don't scale other characters to Saitama, but being able to outpace his casual reaction would force him to be at least FTL no matter what, especially seeing as he was attempting to block most of his other attacks at that point.

Boros having "possibly FTL" was fine by me, but the justification for it didn’t seem to be worded accurately.
- 12,296
- 12,376
Shouldnt he be scaling from the FTL feat of Garou, Platinum S these days?
- 2,299
- 818
Armored Boros saw Saitama perform an FTL feat against Geryuganshoop and was confident he could defeat him (Similar to how he saw Saitama break a part of the ship with 6-A durability and it's enough to get a possible 6-A)
- 12,296
- 12,376
Platinum S and Garou feat should be biggest one to scale Boros to, which is a character above all others before and after him, except Saitama and maybe God in the future
- 15,280
- 15,446
That’s not how scaling is done on the site, and we don’t scale Armored Boros above Geryuganshoop’s attack speed.
- 2,280
- 1,850
To both of those statements, why not?
- 15,280
- 15,446
We don’t apply random 1.1x multipliers just because a character is stronger than another. That’s literally never been a thing.
And why would we scale Armored Boros above Geryuganshoop’s attack speed?
- 2,280
- 1,850
It's called upscaling. I was saying that even if he was only 1/10th faster each time (which is kind of a lowball) he would at least get Sol. I'm using a minimum value seeing as Boros views his minions as pretty much insects.
Because he is shocked when Saitama blitzes/1 shots his armored form, but not when Saitama goes 4 times the speed of light to dodge and 1 shot his minions Relativistic attack. We already use this kind of logic fo his armored form with the giant door he breaks down.
- 15,280
- 15,446
That. Is. Not. How. Upscaling. Works.
Upscaling is not, and never has been treated as giving out random 1.1x boosts just via scaling off of characters. I don’t know where in the world you got that from, but it’s completely baseless.
With that logic, you’d get a possibly Relativistic+ rating at best, and we don’t upscale off of possibly or likely ratings, so you’re still not getting SoL or FTL.

Cyro was talking about scaling Boros to Saitama's 4.35c feat in his reply (still a possibly rating tho)
- 15,280
- 15,446
That involves scaling off of Saitama, which we don’t do.
- 8,997
- 9,713
I think this wasn't accepted on another thread. And Flashy Flash being dangerous while armed is AP, not speed.
Either way, MB Boros has an FTL calc, but it hasn't been evaluated yet
- 15,280
- 15,446
Platinum said that Flash was weakened by not having his weapon, not that he wasn’t dangerous, and scaling Boros above Flash on the basis of Saitama widening his eyes is pretty weak.
