He's not. The only reason he killed God was because he was off his throne, and his throne possessed all his power.
So the difference between Kratos and Saint is that Kratos killed all the Titans and Gods of his world under his own power while they were at full strength.
Kratos has survived worse than nukes, though isn't SoK agreed to be capable of beating ****ers like Marvel Thor? Pretty sure he stomps pretty damn hard
I don't recall this

You really can't really make straight comparisons between characters from Vertigo imprints like Preacher to Marvel mainstream characters and use them to validate the results of other threads.
The Saint is immortal and he has a gun that kill any living creature it hits, but he doesn't have feats beyond surviving a nuclear blast, and killing the devil, angels and a powerless God.

The Saint of Killers is far and away one of, if not the most overrated characters in fiction.
Kratos is fast enough to grab the Saint of Killer's guns before the Saint can stop him, and his strength feats are several orders of magnitudes greater than the Saint's or anyone you can powerscale the Saint off of. Unarmed, the Saint does have anything resembling the feats suggesting he can begin to contend with Kratos, who has better strength, speed, and durability feats, as well as being a far more established hand to hand combatant.
This is all assuming Kratos can't just outright tank one of the Saint's bullets, considering there is not a single character in Preacher the Saint killed with a durability feat on par with Kratos.
Kratos stomps, hard.
The only way the Saint wins is if you assume that God's powers of the throne transferred to him and that that is the Saint in this thread. I think it's pretty obvious that this isn't the case.
I'm as big of SoK skeptic as anyone but why are we assuming normal bullets couldn't penetrate Kratos, let alone bullets that can shoot through tanks?
The argument could be made I guess that Kratos would be fast enough to Golden Fleece a bullet or two but I have severe doubts one wouldn't go straight through him. If he gets shot in the heart or head he's dead (considering how long weaker characters have stayed alive after being shot by him, I wouldn't call it an instant kill on a lesser area). Sure he could climb out of the underworld but for all intents and purposes he lost.
Because Kratos has tanked a volcanic eruption that sunk the island the volcano was on without any injury, as well as being smacked by Cronos (as shown when he caught his hand and forced it off of him), who is hundreds of feet tall and capable of carrying around a castle on his back, as well as resist being crushed by Cronos, who holds the world up.
It's not an assumption. Kratos' durability feats are far beyond bullets whose best feats (IIRC) are punching through tank armour.
The gun was forged from the angel of death's sword. It never runs out of bullets, it never misses and it kills any living thing it hits; so it's definitely not conventional damage by any means.

so what's concept of his weapon ? perhaps his bullet can destroying soul ? or reality warping ? magic ? if not, maybe all of his enemies that he shoot is glass canon ? in that case he's like saitama who can punch anyone with one punch.

the problem is his bullet can't be dodge in his series. in that case we should calc about : -distance between him and his enemies when he shoot his bullet.
:- does his enemies has speed feats ?
No at significant ones as far as I recall, but I haven't read it in years, and I don't have the series and I don't feel like downloading them and going through them again.
If you're really interested you can always ask Galan, he's a big fan and he does have it in digital format.
