I said he got overpowered by Yat. Which happened. And Mongul seemed fully prepared, even trash-talking about the 'Death Wish' thing beforehand. If GL Yat can overpower his constructs and abilities, you know BRB would be able to.

He overpowered him for moments if thats your reasoning for giving Bill the W i won't argue

Number of rings shouldn't matter, btw. I thought it was established with Hal that extra rings didn't = extra power. Might be wrong there though.

Youre right Digi. Its all in the mind. The more rings someone has, the more they have it in their mind that they are more powerful when in actuality its not the case. Because its in the mind, they tend to have more will power than normal thus having extra kick in their blast, constructs, etc.

Each Ring retains its own energy reserve. In order to maximize the use of the rings, they need to not only release the rings energy but, manipulate Fear.

So in short, it fall back’s to how well Mogul can manipulate fear. He has the potential to install great fear, and took the time to learn all about the rings upon gaining them. For a Noob with rings, he is handling them much better then Hal did.

I really want to see how he stands up to Sinestro.

It was phrased sarcastically, but I was completely serious about it. My bad. The rings should be a non-factor with Stormbreaker, unless Mongul uses it to amp his physical stats...which, I don't think he's done.

Mongul is a better brawler than BRB, but he's almost certainly weaker strength-wise. And durability-wise. Few planet destroying blows from BRB and that should be all she wrote.

Yes, I am taking into account ring shielding in this assessment.

Initially this is what I would've gone for.

Until Mongul started taking on a shitload of green lanterns and such. Mongul spent over a day listening to the ring go on about its capabilities, so I don't doubt his proficiency with the ring. 10 rings would theoretically equal 10 times the power if he empties his ring like Haanu did against the Anti Monitor.

Mongul's durability is insane. Surviving Mother Mercy and fighting with one arm. lol.

😬 Mongul's been one-shotted twice by Henshaw and once by Krypto. I think he's also been one-shotted by Superman.

I really hope Sinestro kicks his ass. But his dialogue with Yat once he dropped his ring's shielding made me like him a bit more.

Mongul 7/10, his a better fighter and brawler then BRB, and the rings just add to his favor.

He was never one-shotted by Superman, and plenty of people have been taken down by Henshaw, Eradicator for one. Krypto just sounds like PIS, but the dog is strong. You saw what he did to Atlas and Superman Prime.

This is also part of the reason why he is at low herald without his rings, because he's not as strong or durable as Superman.

I'm pulling for Mongul over sinestro myself, but don't hold much hope out for a Mongul victory.

Yat was damn near bloodlusted and it was a cheap shot he knew he couldn't win. Why ignore the context Quan?
What are you talking about?

I can't grow a mustache so by nature I hate all characters who proudly sport them as i fthey are rubbing it in my face.

May Krona and Sinestro have horrible comic deaths. May it also take them many years to return.
