aka Thunder McQueen vs King (One Punch Man)

They meet in the streets of city Z, around 50 metres apart. There are no monsters around, and no humans for a long way around them. Thunder McQueen knows all about King's reputation and fully believes that he is the strongest man.

King has been given orders from the hero association to take down the man that not even Saitama could beat without dying himself.

Both are in-character

Who wins and why?

King: 8

Thunder McQueen:

Incon: 5
 
so is that a vote for inconclusive?
 
it happens near where saitama would live. the abandoned section. there aren't any other people around in the immediate area but ig if thunder goes far enough he'll find people
 
op's been updated, assume that genos has recently gone on clean up duty
 
Can King's King Engine incapacitate Mcqueen via fear inducement? I don't think HtH can replicate that. King doesn't normally run away instantly. He'll stare down the opponent first, if that doesn't work, he bluffs and only if neither works will he run.

Voting King via King Engine incapacitating TMQ by sheer terror so that he is unable to do anything to kill himself.

PS. I am actually being serious here. Thunder is just a normal human originally and doesn't have knowledge of his powers. He is more likely to get terrified and give up/surrender.
 
King has fear paralysed(in a sense) the monster association's heavy hitters at once and made them second guess themselves. They included Kuroi Seishi, Homeless Emperor, Evil Natural Water and Gums. He routinely fear paralyses wrongdoers of varying power levels without effort. Notably, Evil Natural Water and Gums are mindless enemies lacking intelligence, but they still got stalled by the Engine. TMQ should be affected.

Suicide is a crime and TMQ knows it. OP doesn't just specify that King believes TMQ to have stalemated Saitama, he also specifies that TMQ also knows King's reputation. Thus, it is highly likely that King would incap TMQ.

I am a Jojo fan through and through, but I still believe that the King Engine is going to incapacitate, considering it has incapacitated literal bloodlusted(not VsB definition of bloodlusted but just simply murderous and bloodthirsty) enemies before.
 
I think I'll change to King FRA. That aside though, is the original web comic still on going, or has it finished? I've been reading the redrawn version. Refering OPM btw, just to be clear.
 
don't quote me on this but I think he's spending more time on storyboards for the manga now. not too sure if he has plans to continue the webcomic
 
Good argument for King, but what would TMQ be afraid of exactly? That King is going to kill him? Isn't that already what he wants? I think TMQ would second guess himself but go through this logic as well, before continuing to kill himself.
 
@ProfessorLord

TMQ is suicidal, but otherwise doesn't have a deathwish. He wants to die with someone, not get killed by someone.
 
Getting killed by someone willingly is still assisted suicide. He does have a deathwish, lol. And if he wants to die with someone, he'll just let King murder him so it can be re-directed onto King.
 
Uh... TMQ doesn't know Highway to Hell exists. He commits suicide while wishing for someone to die with him which triggers his Stand ability. Also, even when Ermes was fully capable of killing him, he always took the initiative first of trying to commit suicide.

He only has the suicide kind of deathwish, not any other means.
 
If King is his only means of death, then he'll let King kill him. That's assisted suicide. If not, then another in-character way is TMQ gets afraid of King, runs off into a nearby lake and drowns himself, killing King as well.

Also if King is standing there paralyzed as well, is this not inconclusive? King doesn't have fear manipulation on his profile, it's just a result of how people percieve him. IMO if both are paralyzed in an infinite feedback loop, its inconclusive, not victory for King since he's just as incapacitated.
 
When you are afraid of King, you stop in your tracks and the fear goes away only when King is out of visual and hearing range. Also, King isn't someone who kills anyway. Maybe you have King mistaken with the NNT one. This is One Punch Man King.
 
King can bluff and walk away while TMQ will remain incapacitated for as long as King stands there. King can do stuff, TMQ can't. Which is why I'm not voting inconclusive like I would have normally done in such a situation.
 
He can't walk away, because he's paralyzed just as much via HtH. Not to mention he couldn't physically move seeing as HtH's second ability is to share positions with TMQ. They both become incapacitated.
 
HtH activates upon harmful or restrictive actions done. King's pseudo fear incap can't be replicated by it since King is technically doing nothing and both are just standing there which isn't harmful at all. Also, King while a coward, can take actions even when terrified. Like the one time he made G4 wait and ran away.
 
"All Damage and effects done to the user will be shared with the desired target automatically" straight from his profile. If King has an effect on TMQ, aka fear, than it is shared to King as well. If TMQ becomes paralyzed from fear, second ability means King physically cannot move either.
 
That's not how HtH works. It reflects harm only. Position sharing is also limited to harmful actions only. Tying up TMQ and similar actions will activate HtH but not what King is doing here.
 
Ricsi-viragosi said:
nlf to assume it can reflect everything. Has it shown to reflect fear?
Fear causes a change in metabolic and orgin functions resulting in a change in behavior. Since it is a physical effect on his body, yes, it will be reflected.

It is how HtH works, taken straight from his profile. Make a CRT kid.
 
When has it shown to reproduce hormone effects? It would give depression to anyone affected by it if that were the case. And no, calling an nlf does not need a crt
 
It wouldn't produce hormones in King, just whatever affect they have on TMQ's body will be manifested in King. I don't remember too much from part 6 but it's on his profile for a reason. "All Damage and effects"

Again make CRT if you disagree with the profile.
 
No, unless it has shown to reflect depression, its pure nlf to assu8me it can do that. If it did, people would want to die while affected by it. And no, again, calling nlf on an ability does not need a crt, unless your telling me I have to make a crt for the profile to point out that EE and reality warping are not reflected.
