I really curious, to How is this not Inconclusive.
Like, what Giorno can do against Zeno exactly?
Not much

I guess there's the funny age manip but
  • It's quite OoC
  • Zeno probably upscales from Angels and GoDs who are Hundreds of millions years old so it probably won't do anything
And recently GER got power null added, which may have been useful in some tier 3/2 matches, but zeno has tier 1 shit so saying GER can just power null that is NLF

More than likely, nothing happens ever and they just stare at each other for the rest of time
 
i'M gOiNg To DiE fRoM lAuGhInG sO mUcH...
I don't know if it works but Zeno has no resistance to poison, any animal that uses poisoning methods that don't involve hurting the enemy would work.
GER shoves a poison dart frog down Zeno's throat FRA
 
I mean, there are many poisons that go through the pores, but Giorno doesn’t do that in character. Though Zeno never gets to act either and I guess you could argue eventually Giorno would try something else rather than just do nothing. However, without proof of Giorno resorting to that, I think Zeno just outlast. He’s getting reset over and over again so he isn’t aging or getting tired and eventually giorno would die for one reason or another (age, lack of food, pure exhaustion) and since Zeno is still preforming a move, he wouldn’t be out of the fight for incap. He’ll still be trying to attack Giorno it’ll just take days to years to land (not because it’s slowed down, but I mean, Giorno dies and the pseudo loop stops), but he’s still attacking the whole time. Giorno has to kill you to put you in a full auto loop last I checked. Though I can see arguments for why GER should work and how it could be incap. I’m barely leaning towards Zeno right now after the longest and dumbest fight ever.
 
Giorno is faster so I think Giorno will have the upper hand with his speed.
What exceeds zeno's speed is rtz, not ger's physicals and since he can't ct zeno's 5d e.e i think it's unimportant
GER does not need to manually activate RTZ, given that it activated and reverted time erasure whilst Giorno and GER itself were not even cognizant during it
What shows GER itself were not even cognizant during it?
If Zeno is limited to causality, he will be affected by RtZ. The act of harming Giorno or even thinking about it will trigger the ability.

Zeno can’t do anything.
Is there any scene in the series that shows us this? because as far as I remember rtz is only trigger after anything done on them
Hmmm if ger can really do this my vote goes to incon

But i think ger needs to contact with the enemy before he can rtz we have no evidence to support him being able to just "rtz ez" on anyone at any given time.
example:

I'm neutral for now

If this is truly true, Zen'ō sola
I honestly think ger can't rtz the 5d action zeno performed on him and that's why the match goes to zeno
 
GER can
1. Reduce Zeno will to 0
2. Nullify his hand strech
This isn't an stomp. If you had a gun that could one shot SRE, and I ******* cutted your arm to stop you from firing it. It wouldn't make me tier 0

He very much doesn't need contact, in that instance, RTZ activated automatically without any conscious thought from GER or Gio in order to stop Diavolo from striking them, and then promptly negated is effect on GER. GER never touched Diavolo at all before that point, or while it was happening.

We also see RTZ effect more than just Diavolo, such as Mista and Trish, RTZ'ing them too nearly half a minute before Diavolo even used time skip aka it wasnt just time skip reverting and them going along for the ride, Mista was forced to reload his gun and fire again and didn't even realize he had already done that before, despite said action happening before time skip. And that's without even getting into the whole Death Loop.

Should also mention RTZ has power null, and Zeno himself is only 3D even if a few of his powers 5D who let dbz fans cook, like actually wtf , meaning, yeah sure RTZ might not be capable of stopping the EE unless it's bound by causality, but it most certainly can stop Zeno himself from using it in the first place, in much the same way Diavolo couldn't use King Crimson anymore.

But like, wtf can GER do? He can't hurt him, and the secret tech of age manip won't work on a ******* immortal, and even if it did, at the rate GE's age manip works, it's only a few decades over a handful of seconds, which is enough to kill a human in seconds, but even against someone that has like a 10,000y lifespan, it'd suddenly take nearly a minute, then imagine someone like Zeno who's been around for time immemorial, even if the age manip would work, it'd take so long to age him to death that Gio would die from old age first.

All GER does is make it so Zeno can't get an attack off, and then they sit there doing nothing because that's all either can do tbh. I see dudes talking about poisons, and like, I guess he could make some dart frogs or something, but idk that seems like an argument, even though it's technically possible ig, is only being made because this match kinda sus ngl.
but Giorno doesn’t do that in character.
He does use poisons though so we know that's a tactic he's willing to use, he's just never had to find a way to use a poison that is injected via other methods like contact or ingestion, but I don't think it'd take him long to realize he has next to no options and thus should try using his actual ability that he's used a handful of times before and just pick a animal that works.
(age, lack of food, pure exhaustion)
None of which would happen, at least for RTZ. Giorno or GER dying isn't going to free Diavolo from his RTZ for example, that shit hard confirmed to be going on forever, which indirectly tells us that once set up, its sustainability is insane probably why RTZ's sustainability is incomparable to existing stands, a chunk of which have abilities that continue on even after death or forever.
If GER puts Zeno in a loop, it will last for all eternity, because we've been told as much in effectively every piece of material featuring GER ever made.
And it goes without saying RTZ doesn't lead to exhaustion, again, Diavolo had his act of dying set to 0 so it could never occur, and now it just doesn't, Gio doesn't get drained each time Diavolo dies is what I'm saying. If Zeno had his act of trying to EE RTZ'd in the same vain, lil bro would be better off just leaving.
and since Zeno is still preforming a move, he wouldn’t be out of the fight for incap. He’ll still be trying to attack Giorno it’ll just take days to years to land (not because it’s slowed down, but I mean, Giorno dies and the pseudo loop stops), but he’s still attacking the whole time.
See above, if we take him being unable to land his attack as incap, then it most definitely is given he'll never be able regardless of Gio.
Giorno has to kill you to put you in a full auto loop last I checked.
That is true unfortunately, it's confirmed he killed Diavolo in the initial pummel in guides, and he RTZ'd his death here, initiating that loop. Which makes sense, how can he RTZ the act of dying, if the mf wasn't dying? It isn't like GER has Death Manip and he can just magic you to drop dead. Now how the death happens doesn't matter, but he does need the foe to be in the act of dying.
Though I can see arguments for why GER should work and how it could be incap. I’m barely leaning towards Zeno right now after the longest and dumbest fight ever.
Idk man, if we're going with GER RTZ'ing Zeno, it only has to happen once against a specific action and then that thing will never come to pass.


tbh id just say incon, that or this match is a hilarious mismatch and should never be touched again (which it is, why ya'll humor this for 2 pages), but if we go the poisons would work route due to no res, obviously it isnt gonna take Gio 80 years to figure that out.
 
What shows GER itself were not even cognizant during it?
Why would GER be pretending to be a non-existent holographic forecast that doesn't actually exist and is fated to follow his future and past actions in that span of time, completely ignoring Diavolo and punching at nothing. Only to, once RTZ proc'd, start talking, moving, and making note of RTZ and how Diavolo is boned now 🗿
no bro thinking about harming giorno will activate rtz
Not quite, you can think, you just can't do, it isn't like WoU if that's what you're thinking.
Like if you think you wanna beat up Gio, that's fine, but if you think "man i want him to die" and you got death hax or some shit, RTZ is kicking in the literal moment before it happens, and will prevent it. Even actions guaranteed to occur, including his own fated death, won't ever actually happen which is why Diavolo's funny vision of the future that is absolutely 100% gonna happen and can't be avoided no matter what, would never actually happen thanks guide.
RTZ only proc's automatically to prevent harm from ever actually landing or coming to fruition, as long as it doesn't harm them, RTZ ain't doing shit by itself.
That's the attack speed of RtZ
RTZ doesn't have an attack speed tho, it's a defensive ability. That's its activation speed, which tbf, is pretty important for a semi-automatic ability.
 
Pretty sure RtZ won't be able to null a Low 1-C attack at all, it'd be a giant NLF to assume it does. Wasn't it pretty sure that GER can't null anything beyond Low 2-C range lol?

Ignoring the fact GER should def have 2-B range.
Zeno himself is 3D, he's perfectly vulnerable to RTZ, he doesn't need to null that hyperinflated EE, he just needs to null Zeno himself from doing it. No different than if some dude had a like 10D Stand, and GER went "nah my dude" and he just couldn't summon it anymore or RTZ'ing a dude from pressing a button to launch a nuke. That's a fault on the user, or Zeno in this case, not the ability.

That's being generous too, if the EE abides by the laws of causality still, that shit could be ten fucktillion D and it wouldn't matter. Having funny meme potency doesn't inherently equate to being acausal, or following different laws if it did, maybe DC wouldn't be in shambles atm, last I checked we don't equate being Higher D to having innate resistances like that unless shown or specified and GER's RTZ works via causality something we assume by default things abide by unless proven otherwise, though, the actual power null aspect not working being NLF is def fair it'd still prevent Zeno from using it tho, just not null the ability itself.

Elaborate also why not High 3-A stats at this point smh.

If that's your line of thought that's a thing, but stuff like "instant Tier 1 destruction" being nulled from GER is just heeeh.

That's my problem with it. It's not just potency, is about the size of the destruction involved. GER nulling something that has higher range than what it showcased is the literal definition of NLF.

Think of it like nulling the dude pulling the trigger instead of the actual destruction.

What? Zeno doesn't use big dick uni destruction like that, he did with zamasu ig but he WAS the universe.
Why would he resort to nuking numerous universes with one attack, when he could just do what he did to Frost, or all the other specific one off things he EE'd. Just because he has before, doesn't mean that's his go to when facing one human.
And every time he used big EE, we see it expand, it doesn't start off that big to begin with.
And see the whole laws, HDE above and the fact he just needs to neg Zeno, not that EE.

Zeno's IC is very prone to destroy everything instantly. Goku just triggered him enough for Zamasu. Whis even said that Zeno destroyed 6 universes just because he had a bad mood.

Against Frost he did only to him because he wanted to enjoy the tournament. Totally different context here lol.

Sure, but again, just because he can, has and often would, doesn't mean he always does. Beerus makes it clear he deletes stuff often on a whim, and obviously, everything isn't gone.

Why would Zeno go that far for a lone human just standing there? Like not even actively acting against him, actually JUST a dude standing here doing nothing I would not be surprised if Gio just talked him down from fighting ngl.
Against Frost he did only to him because he wanted to enjoy the tournament. Totally different context here lol.
Is it though? It tells us he can choose to EE just a specific thing, we know he's trigger happy, but it isn't like everything is gone which indirectly tells us he doesn't delete all of reality every time he uses EE (like no shit obviously).

And none of that matters given every time big EE is used, it always expands first as seen numerous times in the ToP or Zamasu, so the "it has big range argument" is moot as it must actually reach that point, which while fast, isn't instant.
This doesn't stop RTZ from preventing Zeno from using it in the first place due to a lack of HDE or res, the fact he abides by causality like, literally why we got two of them, no difference then stopping a 10-B from pulling the trigger on like a 1-A gun, just stop the dude from doing it.
And tbh, pretty sure the standards don't grant automatic Acausality to HDE beings batkek.... , let alone potency attacks so even if we ignore point 2, I'm not sure the EE is even safe if it abides by causality, the power null not working on the EE itself is fine.

My guy, it can't destroy a Tier 2/1 structure across all time without Immeasurable attack speed. Every Tier 2/1 attack that destroys space-time has it by default, characters scale to said attack speed only if they have reasons to (like Frisk physically avoiding Asriel's timeline destruction in Undertale).

This is why characters can destroy High 3-A or bigger stuff despite not having infinite speed, they by default have infinite attack speed, but by themselves they don't have it because they don't scale from that. As if they don't have that speed at very least, they can't destroy those structures to begin with.

I never argued it, I said that GER's range is limited to Low 2-C for now, if someone 2-C or above decides to nuke Giorno from another universe, GER nulling that would be the NLF.

Literally none of what you just said is relevant. Nobody is talking about AP, nobody is talking about destroying a damn thing. Though, is Zeno's feat even Imm? Didn't the timeline explicitly still have a past and he only destroyed the present, which enabled Whis to take Trunks back to his world's past and let him live there by use of his wn special time travel that doesn't have the timeline split caveat the time machine does?

Also what? We definitely list speeds like that, if an attack has infinite speed, we go "infinite with [thing]". If a profile doesnt, but should, that's a **** up.

Bruh, SBA, Zeno isn't starting 50 universes away or something. They start 4km apart at maximum.
Zeno is right there, he's in profile range, RTZ just stops him from attacking to begin with, the EE just doesn't come out. And even if it did, see the above posts.

Quite literally nothing is stopping RTZ from preventing Zeno from attacking, the EE could be 1-A, acasual and have like 1-A range, shit don't matter if Zeno never gets to use it.

The time ring representing the timeline got destroyed, it's the reason why Zeno is Low 1-C to begin with. Plus the time machine is not a time machine but a device that travels through parallel universes.

That's for specific techniques. You can't destroy an infinite space without infinite speed, the attack needs to cross that. The "infinite with [thing]" is just for techniques that most of the time don't even destroy after all.

Kinda off topic, but if Zeno's stuff is instant, then GER can't null it, it's easy as that.

Yes. Im talking about Whis though, who has actual time travel, did Whis not explicitly time travel back and take Trunks back to his world? If I'm not wrong there, evidently the past still existed.

Is his EE not a specific technique? If it's his attack speed in general, we list that too.
If a profile has varying speeds for varying things, we list it, simple as.

Literally EVERY TIME that mf raised his hand, pointed or gestured. My dude this ain't hard to grasp, the EE shouldn't even be apart of the convo because Zeno won't even get to whip it out, he gets RTZ'd the moment he tries and being instant isn't enough to one up RTZ
 
Yes. Im talking about Whis though, who has actual time travel, did Whis not explicitly time travel back and take Trunks back to his world? If I'm not wrong there, evidently the past still existed.
Absolutely not. All he did was just taking Trunks in a world where Black did not exist where there were other Trunks/Mai.

I mean, how can you erase a Tier 2/1 structure across space-time without Immeasurable lol?

You sure because i remember him mentioning time travel, at least in the anime but idk it's been like 8y so i could be wrong
I mean, how can you erase a Tier 2/1 structure across space-time without Immeasurable lol?
it not being tier 1 would be a start
Because fiction be fiction, and, in the case of Zamasu we EXPLICITLY see that shit travel at not Imm speeds, like yeah the end result might've affected the timeline, but that doesn't inherently mean the attacked traveled at Imm speeds, fiction is fucky like that. No different than a dude punching space in front of him and fracturing time like Superman.
Doubly so tho, like for the speed to even matter, the EE would need to effect the past before the match even starts, obviously, that isn't how it works, the Cell Saga didn't not happen because Zeno deleted the timeline 30y from then, or ****, even just the Black arc. The effects of Zeno's attacks do not take effect untill after he actually uses them, even from the outside perception of someone like Goku, or the whole ToP, as such, this again shouldn't even be part of the convo, he just doesn't get to use it.

Tell that to the blog in Zeno's profile not me tho.

Regardless this is getting too off-topic, main concern was GER unable to affect attacks that are larger than Low 2-C.
 
The entire point and problem for Zeno is that the attack truly doesn’t matter. He matters, and if he gets reset, he never gets to attack to begin with. Even thought based abilities require an action and time if the character lacks infinite speed, and even then you could argue since the speed is tied GER could still win that since it’s automatic infinite. Though going more into why I don’t think that would be incapacitation: Giorno needs to kill him to fully auto loop someone. Without he’s just resetting them once. Diavolo showed that the you can acknowledge the reset and be confused by it. So pretty much Zeno won’t actually be incapacitated since he’ll just be losing an attack, not actually being hard prevented from doing an attack. It’s kinda like how Dio continuously moved polnareff down a set of stairs. He gets to do stuff afterwards and try again, it just isn’t really resulting in any meaningful results.

When it comes to Giorno using a different animal, he’s never come close to trying even when it would be extremely convenient. I can see the logic of him trying different things after a while, but I’m pretty sure if a character just never comes anywhere close to doing something we have to assume they won’t even if it would make sense to other people to do so.

I’ll lean to a mismatch then. I don’t think Zeno is really counted as incapacitated, so it just comes down to how much characters are allowed to stretch out from what they have shown (and I’ve been told repeatedly that they really can’t in versus threads). So either Zeno awkwardly wins by Giorno eventually just dying of old age or Giorno poisons him and both cases mean the opponent really couldn’t do anything.
