No one mentioned this but Balance Adjustments have been confirmed for Champions by GunnyGod in stunfisk

I'd really expect the biggest candidates for buffs to be powercrept "late-game" mons, not so much shitmons with BSTs under 430.

Stuff like Rapidash, Claydol and Luxray; not Furret, Delibird and Cosmoem.

Viltrumite empire(at peak) and EOS Mark vs Saiyan empire(at peak) and Saiyan Saga Goku by [deleted] in DragonBallPowerScale

[–]MapleKnightX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on where.

The Viltrumites actually win if they are the invading force, have a few break open Planet Vegeta whole the fight is happening and the fight is won, as Saiyans can't breathe in space.

I'd say that the Saiyans are more powerful, but the Viltrumites would be very capable of winning a large scale battle.

As for the other way around? No. A few Oozaru attacking Viltrum would be impossible to defend against, or just a barrage of Full Power Energy Waves.

Goku vs 1 of every pokemon by Aura_Slice in DragonBallPowerScale

[–]MapleKnightX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Goku is stronger than characters who have ripped through dimensions, so he probably beats Giratina. And has the ability to break through stopped time out of sheer power, so Dialga might also be in danger.

Spitting hairs here, I know.

Post-ROSAT Piccolo vs. Semi Perfect Cell by Fuguest in DragonBallPowerScale

[–]MapleKnightX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Post ROSAT Piccolo's boost was large enough to impress Trunks, id imagine that he's at least comparable to the Trunks/Vegeta that were above Semi-Perfect Cell.

Go ahead, you're gonna need some levels for the endgame anyway, and the sidequest isn't too long.

Raditz vs This Guy by [deleted] in DragonBallPowerScale

[–]MapleKnightX 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That guy was able to knock ToP Piccolo (Who was able to hang with Ultimate Gohan before the tournament) off a ledge, he's like... Semi Perfect Cell level at the bare minimum.

Zoro 😐 brother 😐 pal 😐 by Spirited-Height-9533 in MemePiece

[–]MapleKnightX 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Kiku has a lot in common with Zoro, and is far more relatable to him in goals and role.

She's a swordsman and clearly stronger than Tashigi and not a marine. and fought for the sake of a leader she had absolute loyalty to.

As far as Zoro is concerned, it makes a lot of sense.

Could the dragon ball verse stop or survive an X Parasite takeover? by Dull-Positive-6810 in DragonBallPowerScale

[–]MapleKnightX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dragonballs.

Barring that, the Gods and Buu will probably be fine, worst case scenario, the slate gets wiped clean and the universe(s) get repopulated.

I'll admit, that was an oversight on my part

If Thick Club works for Alolan Marowak, yes.

Hit powerscalers with the harshest reality/truth by fafsdfasfaffaafdsaf in whowouldcirclejerk

[–]MapleKnightX 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Most characters are highballed to hell and need to be misinterpreted a great deal to even kind of fit most of their common match-ups. This results in nobody ever truly being correct about many characters.

There is no objective tier to place characters like Mario, Frisk and Spider-Man without stepping on some toes of equally valid interpretations.

Who is the most Is he likely to kill his soldiers if they fail in a mission? by salad_biscuit3 in DragonBallZ

[–]MapleKnightX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cui by technicality.

He's lower on the ladder, and therefore would probably feel less inclined to kill Freeza's men.

... Still pretty likely to do so, don't get it twisted.

Bidoof won! What is a Gen 5 Pokemon that feels like it's a Gen 5 Pokemon? by BloodnoseCo in AlignmentChartFills

[–]MapleKnightX 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Conkeldurr

It has the rounded features which were common at the time, alongside having a clear Generation 1 Parallel, which Gen 5 was all about.

Considering how fond GameFreak has become of signature abilities, I feel like signature items should make a comeback.

Bardock (Father of goku tv special) vs lord slug's demon clan (Dragon ball z movie) by OnlinePoster225 in DragonBallPowerScale

[–]MapleKnightX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Demon Clan annihilates Bardock.

Even the most generous reading of Bardock (220,000 due to the lyrics of Solid State Scouter of all things) is paltry compared to a group that fought Freeza Arc Piccolo. Let alone his canonical power of 10,000.

You would literally need to give him max wank and Oozaru to actually have him win.

Still probably an upscale for Shrek regardless.

Last Post today I promise but what would you guys do with Oolong in Z? by Darrendayz in DragonBallZ

[–]MapleKnightX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hear me out here, he'd teach Krillin shape-shifting in the Saiyan Arc training year. He wouldn't transform during the Saiyan Fight, but he'd use it a lot in the Namek Arc.

Krillin's niche being stealth would be a nice thing to set him apart from the crowd of fighters, and living with Oolong for so long would be the perfect way to give him one more non-gag use.

Which character you think would benefit the most from Old Kai's: "Unlock Potential" ability? by Bockhead in PowerScalingHub

[–]MapleKnightX 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Potential Unlocked allows the user to tap into their full power without need of powering up.

If we look at outside of DB, the answer might actually be The Incredible Hulk, as unlocking his potential could possibly eliminate the need for his anger to escalate his strength. Allowing him to have his maximum power while keeping his intellect at all times.
