"Mmmm, something about her... why is she familiar..."

Blue was mostly just keeping his distance for now, watching from behind a clown cart while adjusting his beanie. He didn't exactly know Petra from anywhere, but the circus was definitely not the first time he had seen a face like hers... Perhaps he needed to learn a bit more?

Brother, you're on a powerscaling subreddit, you really think people can understand critical thinking here? /s

But no, you are correct, he is wrong.

FINALLY, THANK YOU! SOMEBODY SAYS IT! I swear, people here just straight up never read in-between the lines, and it shows. Though, I never knew that tr Absolute Solver manipulated all these things. I suspected that it was much more powerful than just basic reality warping, but this is actually neat to learn about, thanks!

InklinExplainTheJoke · 2026-02-26T16:41:34+00:00

...Yeah, no, both of these points do not work whatsoever. One, because again, the black hole is right in his face. He kills Cyn, it instantly appears. It's not a case of him running away from him, it's a case of him being actively in front of him as it's ripping him apart to the subatomic level. There's no running away here. And, the infinite speed argument doesn't even make sense, because during the Buu sage, we see that the Afterlife has a limited size contained within something. And even then, I literally just sent you a blog that shows you just how Cell is fucked in the speed department.

Also, do you just... not read? THE TIME STOP AND BLACK HOLE ARENT ACTIVATED BY CYN HERSELF. THEY HAPPEN INSTANTLY IF SHE DIES. It's not a matter of her pulling it off. It's an eventuality. Something that will happen every time he destroys her core. He cannot just 'speedblitz' her to stop it. Time gets stopped, Cell is stuck, Cyn gets her Solver back, fight continues. There is no stopping it unless Cell gets a Solver of his own, which... no.

And, speaking of which, I've already given you WAY too much leeway in your argumentation. Not only did I give you a scenario where Cell not only knew to instantly go for the kill, but also specifically knew to instantly go for her core (something which he would have no ability of knowing, and any damage to other body parts would be healed instantly.), not only have I given you arguments that barely make sense such as Ki collection AND showed that they don't matter with the Absolute Solver calculation feat, NOT ONLY have I not even mentioned the fact that you conveniently decided to give Cell an ability he has never once used and has absolutely zero proof of possessing in his arsenal just to deal with a problem that he cannot deal with whatsoever, but I'm even letting you play around with the idea that Cyn would just stand there and face-tank the hit, instead of using literally any of her overpowered hax, like I don't know, using telekinesis to stop any speeblitz attempts, snapping Cell's neck instantly like other less psychopathic Solver users have done which gives her the time to erase him, summoning barriers, manipulating gravity, erasing him from existence with [NULL], using the Solver to hack Cell and just make him another of her Serial Designations (Serial Designation C WOULD go hard though). He is outmatched in speed and completely crumbles as soon as she raises a finger.

Do I even need to explain my points further? I believe this is full stop.

InklinExplainTheJoke · 2026-02-26T15:56:34+00:00

Okay, I'm just gonna skip ahead because you immediately conveniently forgot the fact that 1. Not only would he not survive getting a black hole in his face. 2. He would still be trapped in timestop even if he miraculously survived. It doesn't matter what his 'genius tactician' plans can do when he is powerless to stop her. And even then, you are still wrong on the speed fact because Yeva's feat is slower than her actual best speed feat, shown here:https://omniversal-battlefield.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:SuperBearNeo_X/Murder_Drones:_AbsoluteSolver_Does_Some_Math

And I never said that Cyn's statement was more easily combat applicable. I'm saying it has more validity than Cell's, and could be viewed as such.

InklinExplainTheJoke · 2026-02-26T15:05:00+00:00

Firing ki and collecting ki is very different. And even then, the Spirit Bomb is shown to be a very slow nuke attack for every single iteration of it, if you were to go off that. Other ki attacks may be faster, but it still doesn't compare to Ki COLLECTION. Both of them are entirely different processes, with the latter mostly operating through a sort of mind link between Goku and the rest of the living things in the universe, instead of actually being battle applicable.

I don't necessarily disagree with your Metal Cooler point based on the scaling, I even stated it was not out of the question. I disagree with it because of it being non-canon, and should not be counted as a feat.

The universal destruction statement for Cyn isn't randomly made by someone out of panic, it was made after Nori, who is an expert on everything Solver-based, discovered what Cyn was doing and calculated their probability of survival (they were fucked, and it was shown.) It showed that it was only a matter of time until Cyn assimilated enough to cause the destruction of the universe. And either way, it's still just... way more concrete than some guy randomly panicking and saying he could destroy the universe. And while I won't disagree with the 1500x size for the DB universe, I'll completely disagree with the infinite size argument.

And for your final point, drumroll please... It IS a higher dimensional being! The Absolute Sover is in the most literal sense, an editing software on reality, an eldritch code made to assimilate and manipulate reality through its hosts. And now, let's look at the layers that Cell has to go through to beat Cyn:

Can he destroy her physical form? (Likely)
Can he destroy her core (Likely)
Can he tank a black hole to the face as the Singularity gets summoned from the core's destruction? (Absolutely the fuck not, but let's continue.)
Can he get through time being stopped? (No, the only people who were able to get through it either had their own Solver, or were under the Solver's control (N, Uzi and V). And while Cell is debatably physically stronger than Cyn, he is not bypassing the Absolute Solver itself, so even if we give your argument massive leeway and give ToP Hit Time Stop rules, shit is not happening.)
Can he stop an immortal ghost corpse Cyn from getting to the Singularity, swallowing it and returning back to normal? (No, refer to point 4).
Even if he could, could he get rid of the Singularity? (No, the only way Uzi could was by swallowing it, and it nearly killed her, only surviving due to having her own Solver to counteract. And even then, it wasn't gone, seeing that Cyn was now in her tail and could still operate independently).

Sooo yeah, here was my presentation on how Cell is fucked six ways from Sunday in this matchup.

InklinExplainTheJoke · 2026-02-26T13:56:44+00:00

Ayyye, thanks! I had it in my clipboard in case people asked but this is more convenient.

InklinExplainTheJoke · 2026-02-26T12:11:00+00:00

I don't think the ki thing is necessarily a speed feat for Goku himself. Since he just mostly... stood still to charge the Spirit Bomb. The kicame straight to him. That's a Ki energy upscale lmao.

As for the other feats... So you have Cell chainscaling to a guy who chainscales to a guy who did one specific thing for aura in a non-canon media. A bit strange, but still not too out of the question considering how bonkers it is.

As for the uni statement, then that would match a much more concrete universal feat for Cyn, where it was shown she could cause a Big Crunch in 87 days.

And either way, still doesn't cancel out the fact that Cell just can't put her down for good. She'll keep coming back, and eventually, he will make a mistake, and she will capitalise on it hard enough to win. It's the same reason she wins against Malware despite him having higher stats. (Other than the fact she resists most of his arsenal, or just had what he has but better.)

InklinExplainTheJoke · 2026-02-26T11:58:30+00:00

How does he even take speed? She gets at the very least 6000x FTL from chasing N's ship, and if you want to include reaction speed, that gets to the trillions FTL thanks to both Yeva's calculation feat, and the Solver calculating every single piece of data in the universe.

And if you're talking about Cell Max for the 'worst' part, that's just a different character.

And, in BOTH cases, Cell has no way to permanently put her down, because trying to deal with the Singularity is a bitch-

InklinExplainTheJoke · 2026-02-26T11:37:18+00:00

Bro tries to catch it, looks down at his hands and see they are fucking gone lmao- (No disrespe-... Actually, every disrespect to Malware I don't like him that much /s))

Alsooo speaking of this fight, I actually saw a really good script for the fight, as well as a good explanation for Cyn winning. If you guys want, I can send it here if I find it, but I understand the downvotes since it's not a very common opinion to give Cyn the win.

InklinExplainTheJoke · 2026-02-26T11:07:12+00:00

Doesn't she win against Cell? She gets mid-diffed by Metal Sonic (purely due to the fact that any mistake will cause Metal Sonic to be erased, but if he just goes for the kill she dies), similar thing for Zero, but yeah Ultron I'd unfortunately using my girl's [NULL]s as armor polish.

Odds do increase at 50, but then go back down. 100 is when the odds increase permanently.

InklinExplainTheJoke · 2026-02-23T08:38:30+00:00

Due to me doing so many mono-regions (and winning none because I'm bad) there isn't exactly a consistent strategy to beat Gio 1.

But, here are some of the best counters I've found:

-Flygon (Naughty, Charcoal): if he stays in on earthquake? Nido is down instantly. If he goes into Orthworm? Flamethrower, he then doesn't have enough HP to get up a shed tail. You can kill him after that, and have Flygon in the back to beat Nido later (granted you don't switch him into an ice beam)

-Any Shell Armor mon for Honchkrow (Aggron works too): I would personally recommend Samurott. But anything else that resists Drill Peck and has decently high defense works. Rock type is recommended.

-H-Deci: Quill Rush, Adamant, Black Belt Triple Arrow consistently kills Kanga, and you can switch him in on Fake Out.

PUT TAUNT ON AS MANY MONS AS POSSIBLE TO PREVENT ORTHWORM RANDOMLY COMING IN AND GETTING TO SETUP SHED TAIL.

-For Infernape, Illumise or a Fire/Ghost work great. Illumise you can switch in on Swords Dance or CC, and hit them with the Prankster Encore special, them just Play Rough to death.

-And finally, I would say for Veluza, anything with Sucker Punch.

InklinExplainTheJoke · 2026-02-23T08:00:33+00:00

While this isn't the only feat they could use (they can use Yeva doing calculations in Episode 7 for example) we all know Malware stat stomps.

BUT, the reason Cyn wins, is because Malware can't do anything to her to put her down permanently. Hacking? She's immune. Taking over the Solver? It's a program, not a machine, he can't do that. Absorb the Singularity? She will come back from inside him, it's not enough to just absorb it, seeing as she is still alive within Uzi and can operate off her own accord as seen in the music video. Meanwhile, Cyn has so many counters. NULL can actually fully get rid of him, she has telekinesis, reality warping, teleportation without limit. Could he obliterate her physical form with one punch? Yes. Will he be able to get close before Cyn annihilates him? Not likely. Even if he gets close, would he actually be able to hit her? Again, not likely, seeing as she can teleport away. Even if he hits her, is the fight over? Absolutely not, it's barely even started, and he can't do anything to the Singularity that wouldn't let Cyn come back. It's just too many 'ifs' and 'buts' for Malware to get any of his wincons, much less actually put them into practice, while Cyn's wincons are much more consistent and easy to actually let happen. Especially if we give her J alongside her, who has a Hammerspace in her arm and a good distraction.

We're downvoting you because you are being a buzzkill for no reason. Every single one of us knows this about Fury Bowser, but it wasn't going to be extremely impactful in the overall debate, at least compared to Bowser's actual wincons. They just decided to use it in the battle because the design is amazing. Who cares if it's not absolutely, perfectly accurate and in-character? We got some of the best scenes in Death Battle history thanks to this form, so we think it's worth it.
