This is an average Celestial. Both bloodlusted. Who wins?

Darkesid's daddy?
access to the power of the source and crap.
people agreed that Galactus stomps him so why not the same for a celestial?

King Kandy
A bloodlusted Celestial sounds weird. They don't even have emotions.

Anyway, the celestial wins.

Celestial stomps.

In Exiles you mean

Remember friend, Celestials 'attacked' Super Ego and not much is know about the outcome, but Ego went insane

yuga was able to transform into the primal energies of the source, on a whim. so imo, there is a logical chance that in a neutral universe he might also be able to transform into/harness the energies of hyperspace - to at least a level roughly equal to sue richards.

and if yuga did in fact accomplish the above, he would, in turn, possess no less than exitar-busting power.

just saying... happy

Wow that's pretty lame. Though it never says Exitar will take 1000 years to regenerate, just that that's how long it will take for the celestials to war with the watchers again. In fact iirc Exitar appeared in other comics later on, so it couldn't have taken too long.

Galan007
i was under the impression exitar has not been seen since that issue... could be wrong though

at any rate, what sue did = a win. exitar was obviously incapable of reforming in anywhere near a 'reasonable' amount of time.

King Kandy
Yeah. Really stupid but I guess that works. Silly Odin for not thinking that up.

Have we seen any hosts judge against planets since? That's about the only time you'll see Exitar.

that's why, in a neutral universe, i think it's logical to assume yuga might be able to harness the energies of hyperspace in a similar fashion. quite honestly, approximating powers equal to those of the invisible woman seems like it would be among the lower degrees of hyperspace control one can achieve - yet it's still more than enough to own a higher level celestial.

What your saying is a viable tactic for Khan but he's less likely going to accomplish that feat Sue did since she only had to deal with the anti-bodies of Exitar. Yuga Khan has to fight the Celestial itself and destroy it's brain to pull that off.

He'll pull out two or three wins against a Celestial if he can channel hyperspace.

Endless Mike
Most likely the Celestial unless Yuga Khan figures out how to tap into hyperspace.

Omega Vision
I'm thinking that Yuga Khan could shrink down so that he could do the same thing that Sue Strom did.
And when has it been said that Celestials = Galactus?

In the middle of battle Yuga's like 'Boy, I wonder what it would do if I harnessed an otherwise useless/never used power... it would probably destroy this Celestial!!!', because that's a likely scenerio. Yuga 10/10

either way. ermm

With the very little that is known by most about the celestials how would their vulnerability to hyperspace energy be "common knowledge"?

I feel that Yuga being able to manipulate/transform into source energy on a whim has a lot to do with that being the source behind his power. It's much more plausible that you'd be able to manipulate something running through you than some unknown outside power that you've never been in contact with imo.

Yuga Khan is limited by the fact that he has few appearances but when he did show up he's been shown to be on a whole other level even when compared to skyfathers like Darkseid and Highfather. He's pretty much more powerful than all the other New Gods put together. It's a shame he hasn't appeared again, he was such an interesting concept. I still believe that a Celestial should win a majority but its not a stomp by any means.

WhiteWitchKing

What he meant was that how can this be common knowledge when it's only one appearance and only a handful of beings were present. This isn't common knowledge to the public or heroes/villains.

but as i said before, there is *obviously* no way of knowing whether or not yuga would be able to mimic hyperspace energy - which is why i would only give him a few wins out of ten.

Omega Vision
So if Yuga has prep (ie: knowledge of the hyper-space weakness and knowledge of how to transform into it) he takes 8/10 because the Celestial still might be able to counter the strategy.
Otherwise Celestial 8/10

Hell, using your logic, we might as well put Surfer in there because he can make energies and has cosmic senses.

Also lol at a Celestial's weakness being common knowledge.

yuga has shown the ability to transform into the same energy as the source. thus, the assumption that he might also be able to transform into hyperspace energy is perfectly logical, based on previously established feats.

for instance, surfer has never made kryptonite - but based on his feats, most people assume he would be able to in a neutral universe.

that said, yuga having the potential to transform into hyperspace energy is a perfectly logical and justified point, based on his feats.

The difference between Surfer/Superman and Yuga/Celestials is that Superman's weakness is common knowledge and Surfer actually uses a lot of matter manipulation. Plus people like to bring up the Gladiator instance... etc.


What feats?
The one time he was next to the Source's energies and replicated it? That probably means he'll go out of his way to create a never talked about or used energy to combat a Celestial.


Like I said, using your logic, we achieve the same result with Surfer in this thread as with Yuga.

Couldn't Yuga go from planet to planet absorbing life force until he's powerful enough to take the Celestial on his own terms?

yuga wanted to enter the source, he sensed it's specific energies, he transformed into them, he entered the source. to assume he would be incapable of potentially doing the same basic thing with a celestial/hyperspace, is ridiculous.

Omega Vision
I suppose so but Celestials have never done that so far as I know whereas that's how Yuga regained his power after splitting from the Source Wall.

That's what I just said. He had something to copy off of. And it's not like that even tells him the weakness.
Also, this is a battle btw, not a 'stand there and don't hit me until I figure out your weakness.'

Ridiculous!
There, now my point is better.

Omega Vision
It would be interesting to see Celestials try to study the Source Wall and get trapped on it. Their solution would probably be to send reinforcements. stick out tongue
I don't see how assuming SS would make Kryptonite is much different from Yuga exploiting the Celestial's weakness. Think about it, if they're both occupying a shared, neutral universe and have knowledge of one another then Yuga would be a damn fool to not have some contingency planned in case he had to fight a Celestial (which is more or less inevitable considering Yuga's cosmic stature and the Celestials' love of meddling) If Yuga could unlock secrets of the Source Wall that Izaya couldn't then I don't see why he couldn't discover the Hyperspace weakness.

a celestial's power stems from hyperspace. thus the celestial itself would be yuga's link to it.

you're right. that's why i never once gave yuga favorable odds - just gave a justified opinion as to how he might be able to take a few wins.

I realize. But again, that's just the power source. That has no telling of weaknesses, or even how the hyperspace would be effective in battle (at least, Yuga wouldn't know).

I am right, I know.
A different thread and Yuga would be taking all the wins, just not here.

A different thread and Yuga would be taking all the wins, just not here. the same energy that powers the celestials is also their weakness. sue merely had to focus and hit the "proper harmonic chord" to rupture exitar's shell. so if yuga did assume hyperspace energy, i would logically have to think he'd also be able to hit the right "chord" very quickly.

huh? "in a different thread"? not following.

huh? "in another thread"? not following. I didn't learn anything from that post.
I know, but like I said, his energy source doesn't say that that's his weakness. Just because he knows his energy source, that doesn't mean he knows his weakness, and as such that makes it hard to believe he would replicate the energy source. You know what I'm saying?
It makes it even harder to believe that he does so in the middle of battle.


If someone created another thread that had the stipulations of Yuga knowing the Celestial's weakness, then Yuga would probably win.

Question though... I thought vs battles were treated as all new battles each and everytime. Not a oooo I learned this worked pretty well last time before I got stomped so lets try that first etc etc. What is the exact rule here?

Galan007
i was always under the impression that the characters learned from their past battles in an 'out of ten' scenario. otherwise, nothing would differentiate a single battle, from 10... hell 100 battles - as they'd all have the exact same victor.

Omega Vision
That could be. Of course the ten out of ten might be differentiated by random choices. Ie whether Yuga just goes for the throat or if he takes his time. Then again since both are bloodlusted the ten fights might be incredibly similar. In any case Yuga wouldn't be the only one to learn from the earlier fights so the Celestial takes a majority still. When I made this thread I assumed that Celestials were high skyfather level beings, now I know they're much more powerful than that. Still Yuga Khan is one of the few non abstract beings in the DCU with the power to keep a being like Galactus on his toes. The Celestial won't win easy.

Yeah I just don't know the exact rule and maybe a mod could clarify this question. I will say, just because you might not be able to learn from your past fights, doesn't mean you'll attack the same way. Either way I guess I just never knew the exact ruling on this.

i agree. Wait...what? Are you talking about when someone posts "So and so wins 6/10"? If so that's just an expression of percentages won. Close battles like Supes vs Thor or Bats vs Cap are never a stomp and people use the fractions to show their opinion.

The vs forum is set up as who would win a single fight unless otherwise noted in the opening post. There is no learning by one character involved or best out of 10 fights. Tourny and gauntlet rules don't apply here in the vs forum.Originally posted by KuRuPT Thanosi

apparently that's not how shit rolls though. thumb up

apparently that's not how shit rolls though. thumb up I see both sides of the argument really. I get what your saying and agree that could be a good way of looking at things. The flip side to that is it open up the door to then people saying... Ooo he learned from the first battle and now it pwns 9/10. It then becomes kinda like a prep battle when you remember what did and didn't work before and can thus bring new tactics to the table. I see both points.

The vs forum is set up as who would win a single fight unless otherwise noted in the opening post. There is no learning by one character involved or best out of 10 fights. Tourny and gauntlet rules don't apply here in the vs forum. Hope that helps. This is exactly how I thought it went. I never ever thought a character learned from his losses and kept his memories. Each battle was completely separate with a character maybe taking a different action but not because he had any memory of any previous battles.
