Nah. RKT would just amp himself as needed.

Odin, while seemingly only brawling, was destroying galaxies and the like with Seth.

RKT, who is > Odin, would wreck them.

Team wins. Too powerful, imo. Rulk was in Watcher KOing, one punch Elder killing mode and WBH ... even more powerful.

Same Rulk also got merked by OF Thor, Lady Liberators, and Hulk himself.

Not sure how anyone can give this team the win over Odin (without just ignoring everything about the character, anyway) let alone RKT.

Yes the Rulk that was casually murdering OF Thor, KOing Uatu (with one punch!) and killed an Elder. All before being wearing down and becoming worn out from expending all that energy.

Unlike Hulk, Rulk doesn't amp up the more he fights. He just becomes weaker. Which is why, after Savage Hulk wore him out some more, OF Thor was doing well against him.

He wasn't do anything close to murdering OF Thor considering the shit that didn't kill OF Thor. Sure, he beat him up and used Mjolnir (irrelevant here).

If Savage Hulk getting his ass kicked and OF Thor nearly murdering him is enough to tax Rulk, RKT will obliterate him.

Rulk basically could have killed OF Thor, leaving him bloody and unconscious on the moon. He was just dismissive of him, that's all.

Rulk's energies were depleted over the course of his fights, not just the Savage Hulk and OF Thor fights, but the expenditure of energies over all of them.

Extremely doubtful considering the Destroyer Armor and Bor couldn't kill him and both have or could have slayed normal Thor.

And RKT can't tax Rulk to that point? wat

Jake, just save yourself the brain cells brother.

You may doubt it but it was depicted as a pretty straight-forward dismissal of OF Thor by Rulk.

And again, imo Rulk had depleted his energies by the time he got back to Earth and fought Savage Hulk... He had been in continuous battle for some time, by that point.

RKT

Naija Boy has so much respect from me after the Battlezone debate he had with Newjak that, under normal conditions, his opinion would be enough for me.

What's complicating the matter in this case, however, is that the original poster of this thread is specifying Loeb-force Rulk.

This is confusing me because Rulk won all those great battles largely hand-to-hand, but he did so because, under Jeph Loeb, he had the innate ability to absorb energies from many of his opponents and use the enemy's OWN power to make himself stronger. People are saying Rune King Thor can amp himself and make himself stronger. If doing that, using a special ability to increase one's own strength, still satisfies the edict of "hand-to-hand only", wouldn't Rulk's ability meet this criterion, too?

If so, wouldn't that mean he could simply absorb energy from Rune King Thor AS Rune King Thor is amping himself and match, then exceed RKT?

Remember, Loeb-force Rulk did essentially the same thing to Hulk:

... even as his daughter, Red She Hulk, demonstrated more or less the same ability on HIM:

Check the Rulk respect thread. Notice that Loeb-force Rulk is able to absorb seemingly any form of energy an enemy possesses: gamma, sound, cosmic, even Thor's Asgardian magic energy, if the fight where he jumped with Thor to the moon, left him KO'ed there and then used jumped back is any indication. Note that in that encounter, Rulk was apparently able to work some of the very magic of Mjolnir to attack Thor with ELECTRIC hammer blows not just regular ones.

Team for the win if the Rulks are allowed to use their special energy/power absorption ability, the very ability that MADE them "Loeb-force", against RKT in this struggle.
