What exactly would SS do the first 2 seconds of combat before DD decides to blitz?
Thanos is arguably more dangerous and has killed countless people (even Surfer before). Yet Surfer ALWAYS engages him with blasts the first few seconds. Even after that time Surfer blasted Thanos with no effect, Surfer still blasts Thanos the first few seconds.
Just answer the question. Be honest and no trolling. I have admitted I was wrong many times. Are you a big enough man to admit it?
Surfer gets the knowledge of the general population about the character. The general knowledge that Metropolis knows about Doomsday is, Doomsday is a killing machine that killed humans, slaughtered heroes and killed Superman, a great hero. This is the knowledge metropolis alone knows about Doomsday, the world basically knows the same thing. It was on freaking news. General knowledge, "he killed one of the most powerful heroes on the planet by beating him to death and he crippled some heroes using brute strength, speed and durability". Surfer knowing this would be foolish going in circling him, blasting.
I dont understand why you're mentioning Surfer blasting Thanos. You don't do this with Superman. Superman knows how dangerous Kalibak is but he still go in fist cuffs with him and actually gets koed. Superman knows how powerful Mongul is and still goes fist cuff and actually gets koed. Superman knows how powerful Grundy is and goes in swinging and still gets koed. The list is long but yet you still debate in the fashion of "he won't get touched fighting Hulk". Yes, Superman has used his speed in a fight. Yes, Surfer has snatched someone's soul out of their body during mid combat. Yes, Superman has used his speed in combat. Yes, Surfer has energy drained someone in combat. Yes, Superman has used his speed in combat. Yes, Surfer has trapped someone in his board, opened black holes in someone.
I will answer your questions once you admit you're a hypocrite.
