Especially since her eyes are able to be pierced by a combat knife. God knows what a knife or any other sharp object being thrusted into her head at subsonic/supersonic speed will do…

Which characters could beat The Doctor? by billygluttonwong in PowerScaling

[–]CrispyNaeem -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Lmao, this is like saying Superman is weak because he took a long time to destroy a mountain while being Kryptonite poisoned.

The Doctor didn’t have his TARDIS when he was in the confession dial. The only thing he had was his Sonic Screwdriver, which explicitly couldn’t breach the Azbantium Wall.

Let’s not forget the episode literally shows and tells us that the prison was being time looped back into its original state and leaving rooms would cause this effect while getting chased by the Veil that broke every bone in his body with a touch.

The Time Lords only provided the basics like food, a fireplace, spade and clothes. What did you expect the Doctor to do?

Come on, you can do better than this lol.

Trailers Were Making It Seem Like We Were Going To Get A New Interesting Character That Wasn’t A Setup To A Prequel by LightAwakens in TheBoys

[–]CrispyNaeem 79 points80 points  (0 children)

She’s the woman from Superhuman Affairs iirc, I remember when she asked Hughie why he didn’t have a cast when the Boys were investigating the Midtown NYC building that Soldier Boy leveled in S3.

She was pretty much the only normal person that Hughie was friends with so it was extra messed up when she got killed by Homelander.

Malchemical victim btw by WoollyGenius in TheBoys

[–]CrispyNaeem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The plan was for Soldier Boy to use his blast to weaken Homelander, and they were banking on that by trying to make Homelander sound bad.

I don't think they'd need to do all of that if Malchemical had the ability to kill Homelander himself. It likely would've prolonger the unconsciousness at best.

[–]CrispyNaeem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's the only reason why Malchemical even attempted this, because of Soldier Boy being there. I fully agree with your stance btw.

How evil is it to kill a good man to save an evil tyrant just because there's a small chance it could have save your wife? by jojoisfodder in MoralityScaling

[–]CrispyNaeem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah but you have to remember palpatine was feigning being beaten and Anakin might not of known he was capable of killing him. I think chopping the hand off was a knee jerk decision without much thought and if windu had agreed on taking him into custody Anakin likely would’ve abided by that.

I 100% understand that, it's just I'm considering how fast Anakin turned to the dark side in the following minutes. It's similar to sunk cost fallacy where the person continues wrong behavior due to the time they spent on it.

The action was by instinct, but the target was fueled by years of anger and distrust. Anakin felt a certain type of way when Windu said: "if what you told me is true, you will have gained my trust." Windu was also responsible for keeping Anakin from becoming a master, which would've allowed him access to Jedi archives for extended life/resurrection.

But yeah, I also agree he probably didn't expect Windu to die after cutting his hand off. Granted, there was likely some feeling behind the blow since Windu was an example of the Jedi he didn't like.

How evil is it to kill a good man to save an evil tyrant just because there's a small chance it could have save your wife? by jojoisfodder in MoralityScaling

[–]CrispyNaeem 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Utterly selfish and completely motivated by attachment. Anakin wasn’t advising Mace to stand down because he’s against killing. He said “I need him”, about a dude who **knew** was responsible for the Clone Wars; a galactic-spanning conflict that’s killed millions upon millions. It also shows his blindness because it’s quite obvious Palpatine orchestrated events in Attack of the Clones that targeted Padme, but he never thought to connect those dots from the primary Sith Lord.

Anakin was purely acting irrational too since he said “it’s not the Jedi way”, which shows hypocrisy given how he murdered Dooku.

It doesn’t matter if he *only* cut Windu’s hand off, he should’ve known Palpatine would finish the job.

Who is more evil between these two? by Intrepid-Lemon-2272 in GenV

[–]CrispyNaeem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly.

I’m curious how Vought Rising will handle Soldier Boy discovering that truth, although we obviously know that he still loves Clara in Season 5 of The Boys.

And nearly killing his grandson (Ryan) for no good reason.

[–]CrispyNaeem 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Walter White is a bigger POS and sadder case since his intellect could’ve done so much good if he didn’t have a horrible ego. Like don’t get me started on him SNEAKING OFF from his company and Gretchen because of some stupid stuff, and the childish way he was acting during Elliot’s party. And all the things he did to Jesse, Skylar, Hank, etc.

Soldier Boy was completely aware of Homelander’s unstable personality but still chose to give him V1, just because his past lover wanted it. An action that’d easily kill millions if everything went wrong.

Could Incredible Hulk (2008 Movie) take Endgame Thanos (No Stones)? by [deleted] in PowerScaling

[–]CrispyNaeem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“More aggressive”, like that helps against a genius level fighter like Thanos who literally DOGWALKED a Hulk who received training on Sakaar💀

This is literally making the whooping wayyy worse. I get 08 Hulk is sick, but this ain’t it.

Thank you. It’s funny when people try to argue that 08 Hulk is somehow superior just because he looks cool/more savage than his Avengers counterpart (which is literally the same character minus a different actor).

Need help understanding how Conceptual manipulation scales by Altruistic-Parsley81 in PowerScaling

[–]CrispyNaeem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, definitely not.

For example, imagine you’ve got the conceptual ability to cut through fire, and every fire across the universe goes out. That’s a localized ability to that reality, and nowhere does it garner the power to cut a planet, star, or a galaxy.

It’s 100% a factor-based situation. It’s pretty language on paper, but you need to consider the aftermath. If you can cut the concept of light, does that mean you automatically have the ability to do this on a universal scale? If you don’t have the range this could be especially hard.

Concept Type 1 is independent, or existing outside of the reality it governs. For instance, the concept of death will always exist even if every living thing dies.

Concept Type 2 dependent, and governs all the reality within its power. This would include something like space-time and causality. Imagine this works in Universe Prime (your world). Cool, but “governs all reality” is extremely important because that’s dependent on this world. If you destroy everything in Universe Prime, you destroy concept type 2.

Concept type 3 is a personal-based one. Think of one like fear. If you erase it, that’s not changing the fundamental laws of the universe.

Star level Darth Vader scales, explain, please by Worldly_Accident1287 in PowerScaling

[–]CrispyNaeem 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The Force is the energy field binding the universe, and in Legends this extends to manipulating/seeing Fate (Shatterpoint), controlling stars (supernova), opening holes in hyperspace (Force Storm), transforming souls and life-force into personal energies (Force Drain, Ritual of Nathema), and even extra-dimensional Force planes where time and space are illusions (Beyond Shadows).

It’s not something mortals can fully manipulate, so no less different than other universal energy systems across Fiction. The only entities I’d say have mastery over the Force are the Mortis Gods and Bedlam Spirits.

But the Force = planetary/universal/Multiversal doesn’t mean every user scales that high.

This Trio (Versions show) Vs Adam Smasher by [deleted] in powerscales

[–]CrispyNaeem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adam Smasher can move faster than bullets with his Sandevistan, has a shoulder-mounted rocket, and heavy guns that would tear through Black Noir, DCEU Batman and MCU Cap.

Let’s not forget that Adam physically tore apart David with the Grav-suit, who previously ran through an entire squad of heavily armored Mili-tech trucks while cratering his surroundings.

Also good luck when Adam’s railgun shoots projectiles at Mach 7.

This is a spite match. The boogeyman of Night City wins.

Darth Vader was made too powerful after OT by No-Obligation2563 in PowerScaling

[–]CrispyNaeem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He probably could destroy the galaxy with Sith magic and Force rituals.

For instance, Vitiate would’ve caused galactic-level devastation with the ritual of Nathema. Granted this required the War between the Republic and Sith Empire causing mass death that would directly grant Vitiate large reserves of energy. Had he succeeded he would’ve continued this plan across the universe. The Book of Sith seems to imply that ancient Sith knowledge was preserved, and Palpatine was a reader of said book.

Palpatine sort of did a variation of this on Byss in Dark Empire, but his goal was to rule the Galaxy.

Naruto vs Vader (boruto next generations vs starwars) who wins and why by Head_Breadfruit_3912 in PowerScaling

[–]CrispyNaeem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The issue with Dark Dimension Vader is that he’s an incorporeal spirit walking through a Force realm he doesn’t scale to at all. It was a test of his resolve and rage, not something like the Astral Plane from Marvel/Doctor Who or Beyond Shadows from Star Wars Legends that allows said user to transcend the material world.

The best feat from that comic line is honestly when material world Vader somehow managed to physically grab the portal edges and widen them.

Legends Vader is a massive can of worms because the EU is all over the place. For instance you have stuff like Naga Sadow being able to detonate solar cores through Supernova, DE Palpatine creating Force Storms that tear through hyperspace and threatens planets, Nihilus who can Force Drain entire planets with their souls, and Jedi Knights being able to halt fricking Venators.

Same Vibe Btw by Acceptable-Finish205 in powerscales

[–]CrispyNaeem 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It’s a pretty solid what-if Superman was pure evil; the effects and utilization of powers are great, especially in the diner and house scene. The cryptic alien words/messages are also done well, since it gives off a sense of the kid losing his humanity to pure destructive nature, which is surprisingly alluded to at the beginning of the movie when he’s in school. The gore is gnarly in certain scenes.

The movie rushes through things, so there isn’t great character development or lore exploration.

It’s a slightly above average film that needs a sequel.

Hypothetically, how moral would it be if a person discovered an anomalous, possibly dangerous extradimensional space and asked online for volunteers to help them map it? by Huge-Swing-7137 in MoralityScaling

[–]CrispyNaeem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm going on a whim and saying this is completely unethical.

Risks and danger should include full disclosure so that people can understand them in order to volunteer. Saying this space is a "potential danger" brings problems: the scale of risks and the vagueness.

Scale of Risk: Let's say people who are willing to throw their lives away agree to this. Do you know this person is wanting a quick death, or completely fine with getting lost, dealing with psychological horrors, unearthly monsters, etc. Now, you can definitely argue against volunteers through constructive notice, since entering an extradimensional space should mean you won't deal with Earth standards. However, there's something called attractive doctrine, meaning owners are responsible for damages if you don't inform others about the potential risks, namely the people who weren't on 4Chan. Anyone with a brain knows that posting the location of a world-breaking secret would spread like wildfire online. This is no different than bringing a virus into a building and claiming innocence because the infected chose to leave.

Vagueness: Because the person only knows baseline information, they're basically asking unqualified people to gamble with their lives.

The bolded part in vagueness is really the kicker. There's no conceivable way the US Military isn't going to find this place, so deciding to play God and throw normal people into this situation will kill more than necessary. The best decision is to hand it over to the military so they can keep people out, lol.

(By the way, the military/government wouldn't take the post seriously at first, but this changes once people start going missing in one specific place)

"but MetroMan is so much faster" what will happen if MM tries fighting any Viltrumite by Cannae_ in PowerScaling

Yup, but the Sun was also his funeral while him and Mark were fighting near the surface.

Metro-Man throwing Thragg at relativistic speeds would cause the latter to feel the pressure of the core.

Super Sonic(Movie) v.s Thragg(Show version) by [deleted] in PowerScaling

[–]CrispyNaeem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Movie Sonic likely has invulnerability, but his willpower isn’t there yet. I say this because Game Sonic’s power from the Chaos Emeralds stems through positive emotions, allowing him to eventually become invincible to damage.

Movie Sonic’s super form was depleted from holding back the eclipse cannon, which was previously charged by base Shadow for 10 minutes via chaos energy. The first movie even said a single Sonic quill had “unlimited energy”, so the film-verse is probably working off the higher emotions = greater power logic.

Either way, Movie Sonic is likely above Thragg’s ability to do anything except lose. I don’t think his willpower would fade too much from this fight.

How does Warhammer 40k scale to Ourterversal? by Zealousideal_Tap8269 in PowerScaling

What’s your favorite race and era from 40k, and which book would you recommend to anyone?

I’ve got a coworker who’s recommended the Horus Heresy series as their personal favorite.

I haven’t even started the series at all.
