I am currently leveling up a priest and I'm getting a new computer.. Once I hit Northrend with this priest, I'll be recording every encounter with the Lich King.. Whilst my intentions are not primarly to post the clips as feats here on KMC, I will be doing that, to once and for all set the facts straight that Lich King is no longer featless and far more powerful than many here give him out to be.. The priest is currently 61, so I probably wont have all the material until december.. Patience is your friend..

We can clearly see Cloud's body and sword, phase through Sephiroth's body. So no, it wasn't a physical attack.
And cannot you guys see this debate is useless?! I already saw all of you argue about fights involving those characters(Lich King, or Sephiroth, or Kratos, or Samus, or Dante, or Xemnas) many times, and the end is always the same: No one is able to convince each other that their favorite character wins.
Then later, someone creates another topic with one of these characters, and everything starts again.
Seriously guys, stop wasting your time here, insulting each other because of fictional characters, and go do something more productive.
This is a weird thread to create, given that no significant weakness has been applied for the Lich King. Lich King with all certainty can take on Sephiroth, Kratos, Samus or Dante in a headsup battle him and any one of them. I can not speak for Xemnas because I have not played Kingdom Hearts.
If the likely takes place and they attack the Lich King one by one as the first post suggested, they will bite the dust. None of them can match the strength of the Lich King in a battle between two. Not including Xemnas, the one way they win would be through a common charge.
Kratos would be the one to oppose highest threat due to his great size, strength and strong skin, but even he would oppose very little by himself. Then Lich King has the additional advantage that unlike his foes he is able to follow every step, every thought, every word that is spoken. They will not be able to surprise him and he stands in defense.
This thread in my opinion is formed with an unfair advantage in Lich King's favor. The benefit of defense, the power of knowledge and the arsenal at Lich King's disposal makes this almost an impossible battle for the heroes.
I for one am pretty sure Samus could take out the Lich King. Might be tough, but she could do it.
How would the Lich King do against someting like her Stacked Beam? Plasma, Ice, and Electricity at once in a large wall of energy. Or she could use the Light Beam/Sun Burst or the Annihilator Beam.
Of course, there's always the "Screw Attack at supersonic speeds" option.

You gotta make a better argument than that, Silly Goose. You're basically repeating the same basic stuff ("Lich King wins, I don't see how the heroes can win this"😉. You can't expect people to get anywhere if you're saying stuff like that.Now explain WHY Lich King wins.
That post is over a year old and it has been months since Silly Goose was last online. I would not expect too satisfying a response.
Unless the 5 here have some kind of weapon that is the complete polar opposite of Frostmourne, they're quite screwed. Feats of killing Gods or whatnot are moot.
Ashbringer was forged from Naaru essence. In modern day terms, that's like God shedding part of his essence into a mortal-forged weapon.
As depicted in-lore and in-game, Arthas is pretty much invincible if he has that sword.
A 'successful' LK encounter endgame, ludicrously enough, ends with him owning everyone in one move and he basically toys with the entire raid.
If the 5v1 can do something about Frostmourne, they have a good chance, otherwise not a single feat they have in the past will protect them from that sword.
Telekinesis, teleportation, intangibility, super-speed, some kind of divine intervention, whatever. Fury of Frostmourne owns them all in one shot.

So what kinds of attacks has he survived, brushed off, or otherwise?Because I have doubts as to his "power."
The dragons, who are basically power-scaled and have such type attacks as to be the 'Essence' of something, like Magic, Life, Time, they don't dare go up against him directly. Basically includes all your elemental or cliche theme based attacks.
As for mind control he's able to telepathically direct, control, and maintain the entirety of the Scourge. Without Arthas fused.
Just read up on him on the Blizz site.
Ner'Zhul (While trapped on Frozen Throne)
1.) Enslaved a powerful race with his power even while weak and imprisoned in a giant prison of ice.
2.) Created the Scourge and the undeath plague himself.
3.) Reached out to beings across the world individually and corrupted them, some being very prominent (Kel'Thuzad, Anub'arak) but most relevant was Arthas, one of the most devout and loyal paladins at the time of the story. Took a prince and made him a pawn, easy as that.
Arthas (DK)
1.) Can raise the dead in the blink of an eye.
2.) Extensive knowledge of necromantic magic.
3.) Martial prowess.
Adding the two together made, quote, "one of the most powerful beings Azeroth has ever known".
LK:
1.) Even when toying with Saurfang, Saurfang got one-shot and got his soul stolen, body taken and reanimated later into the LK's most powerful death knight.
2.) The entirely of the Scourge bends and is controlled under his will. Think psionic entity as in Overmind to the Zerg from StarCraft, so is the LK to the Scourge. Which is powerful. Heck, in Arthas: Rise of the Lich King he even made it start snowstorming violently in his slumber.
3.) When he gets pissed he unleashes Frostmourne, which is a part of the LK's soul itself. Even when in great distance from the LK himself, said sword is able to unleash great power, aka ignoring any armor. Not even a divine intervention saves anyone from Fury of Frostmourne, and after that predictably resses them as undead.
Sadly we haven't seen much of LK being fully serious and at full combat capacity other than the super OP one-shot move. He just dicks around half the time. When he gets srs, he uses the srs moves. More than once he's hurt his pride for being lax.
Originally posted by DarkCsee if it was just samus dante and xemnas i would agree with you. but kratos is almost certainly physically stronger than "arthas". btw you should specify, there is a difference between arthas and the lich king (not talking to you about the specifying dark) and sephiroth has some crazy magic abilities, frostmourn would do nothing to sephiroth, if he tried to suck his soul out....well, it wouldnt happen lol. at the end of ff7 after the group beet sephiroth he pulled clouds soul, and stopped his from entering the life stream, to fight him in a last ditch effort to stop from dying, and defeat cloud
