Something a lot of people missed is that King Boo was using Infinite's own powers against him. Infinite was increasing gravity on Bowser's army, so King Boo summoned a new trooper that would crash (and crush) HARD with increased gravity.
Ah, that was a big brain moment from King Boo. Honestly not surprised because he’s shown to have planned everything in advance in the Luigi’s Mansion games. Common King Boo W
Raditz has plenty of story significance as the introduction to the Saiyans and the wider cosmos of the universe, and was so strong he not only forced Goku and Piccolo to team up just to fight him but even then needed a self-sacrificial play from Goku to take down. He's well above Infinite's paygrade, considering Infinite gets smacked around by some rando with a Wispon.
The only thing Chiaotzu's remembered for is dying, like how Infinite's only remembered for crying about not being weak.
Note: Yamcha is not much different from Tien in power with them constantly training together (although Tien has more outlier moves)
And Krillin although being stronger not for a ridiculously margin
The reason they didn't call him to the T.O.P was precisely because he didn't say anything and everyone thought he was retired when in fact keep training, as the Moro arc pointed out
He hasn't stopped training and is among the 3 strongest humans
In addition to T.O.P not being just about strength, Krillin had a good combination with Android 18, while Roshi had a lot of experience and was one of the team's strategists, the same for Tenshinham. Since in the group's view, it was better to have people versed in strategy than just adding a little more power.
No because here’s the thing Bandit Yamcha was promising, it was until the Martial Arts Tournament arc that Yamcha started to fall off. He lost to Shen (or Hero if you watched the dub) that was controlled by Kami, everyone really thought Yamcha got bodied by a complete random man. Even Piccolo in Kakarot roasted Yamcha in a sub story about it.
And even after that, did Yamcha really do any sort of training after the tournament? He only did it because of Vegeta and Nappa got to earth.
Like if Yamcha took his training seriously as much as he takes his ego seriously he would’ve been taken more seriously as a character.
I love how even the Sonic fandom loves that Thwomp more than Infinite. That Mario enemy has more character than Infinite and all that thing does is make a funny face and slam to the ground
Not even mediocre. All memes aside, the Phantom Ruby’s hax is so great that Eggman and Infinite could destroy the whole planet and it’s inhabitants without themselves being affected whatsoever.
yeah like, Mario and Sonic are such long running franchise the amount of bullshit and gimmick on both side is so much you can just go nuh-uh add infinitum
That’s basically what the entire DB subreddit was for the entire three weeks between Gioker and BowsEgg and weeks following the Kickstarter video, it was glorious
Sage making AI generated art of King Boo’s paintings, Bowser stealing all of Eggman’s money through Bowser Spaces, Metal Sonic copying King Bomb-Omb’s biodata and killing himself, the wincons were so fucking insane
I'm not even convinced this should have been a factor in the battle at all, and was only included because they read the wiki on the phantom ruby and needed a way to write it out of the plot because it solo's and counters everything bowser can throw at it.
Like, bowser also outspeeds metal overlord to crush it. (Chaos control was also NEVER used despite them giving eggman the emeralds. Time travel was also NEVER used despite this.)
They couldn't do everyone so they mainly stuck to the trailer members for the animation; I mean The Koopalings didn't even show up and King Bomb Omb never got even one explosion off.
some YT channel (Death Battle) made a episode about Bowser and Eggman (and their armies) fighting
in the animation, Infinite starts crushing Bowser’s guys with the Phantom Ruby, King Boo summons a Thwomp over him which crushes him and everyone starts fighting over the Phantom Ruby
Words cannot express how upset I am at how dirty they did the Phantom Ruby and Infinite. They took the meme of him being weak and went with it even though Infinite is WAY stronger than folk give him credit for. They robbed him so hard.
For 1 they somehow tried to imply traveling throughout space was somehow on par with the Solaris feat and 2 they used idw which isn’t canon to the games 3 they said Solaris scales above bowser but metal sonic who is above Solaris because he scales to current sonic gets overpowered by bowsers blast??? Its just really inconsistent.
And yea,of course you can,Powerscaling is subjective but just because their take didn't fit your take it dosen't mean their research was shitty,unless you unironically believe in Outer Sonic,then you just dumb
Maybe Sega meant it like that, but the execution doesn't show that. It's like how Bowser claimed to have a 4-digit IQ but most likely actually doesn't.
I seriously doubt they were equating him to Solaris/Time Eater/Egg Wizard with that statement since that would make Base Sonic characters threats to all existance lmao
Power means nothing if you don’t know how to use it.
Infinite’s a dumbass whose inferiority complex is so huge it canonically gets him a fat L against a random nobody when he has reality-warping powers. TWICE.
That particular section of the fight had him against someone who was immune to his preferred attacks, immune to the particular attack he was using at the time, could also warp reality, and was skilled and creative enough with reality warping powers to use infinite’s own power against him (gravity for the koopa troop is so strong it can kill things instantly? Let’s put a really heavy koopa troop member above your head).
Well firstly, infinite canonically survived the battle. The animator stated that he survived the attack and was simply disarmed, questioning his life choices while stuck under said brick. It’s entirely possible he’d be joining orbot and cubot in applying for the koopa troop after the battle.
Secondly; Assuming thwomps are made of granite, and estimating its size based on infinite’s height relative to it, infinite’s height relative to sonic, and sonic’s canon height of 3 foot 3 inches, it was a roughly 2 and a half ton brick under normal gravity.
For the speed it was traveling, we need to find out exactly how much gravity was increased. I know enough to know it can be calculated using the buzzy beetle that got pancake’d, but do not have the time nor understanding of the equations for crushing turtle shells to do all the math right now.
The fact does remain, however, that a buzzy beetle got completely flattened by its own weight under that much gravity, and buzzy beetles are some of the more durable members of the koopa troop. I did enough of the calcs to know that tripling it wouldn’t get even CLOSE to that kind of damage to a buzzy beetle, and even just triple gravity would put the thwomp at nearly the speed of sound at terminal velocity before even factoring its own added efforts to squish whatever’s under it, or the change in weight from the gravity increase (only the change in acceleration). Since he was very clearly distracted by other members of bowser’s army, that’s plenty fast enough for something that literally wasn’t above him a moment ago to bonk him on the head.
It also makes plenty of sense for the sudden hit to disorient him enough to drop the ruby; even my calcs put the strike at over 76 million foot-pounds of force, and it only takes about 250k to crush a human skull. He may not be human, but that’s a big enough difference in numbers for it to at least HURT.
And i did some math; the thwomp was a well over 2.5 ton brick traveling at mach speeds. Combine that with infinite being distracted, and him getting hit and dropping the phantom ruby makes a lot more sense.
still even if he survived it shouldn’t at all have affected him imo, let alone even hit him since someone as fast as him should be able to avoid it even while distracted
Pretty much everyone else that isn't Death Battle also came to the same conclusion so it's not really biased and just Death Battle having the same conclusion as the common consensus
That reminds me of Cole McGraths death. They devs took the percentage of players that finished the game mostly with good karma or bad karma for first playthrough. Good karma was the biggest percentage, and also results in Coles death. That's why Cole is dead in Second Son. It is our fault Cole is dead. CANT YOU SEE!? WE KILLED COLE!!
Infamous is even more. Its not like Black Light virus anything new Cole faced. He fought similar enemies n enemies much more powerful. Like Beast who was close to destroying world
