Kratos vs Link

I agree Kratos is incredibly strong, easily strong enough to crush sub-100 tonners, and contend with levels of strength well into the hundreds of tons, maybe he's at the thousand ton marker, maybe more. But we can't know for sure, because his best feat has no real number attatched.

How much weight you can support is directly related to durability, if the collossus can injure him, the crushing force between Atlas' fingers can't be -too- much more than the Collossus' own weight/the force of it's hand.

TGE makes a good point, which version of Kratos are we using?

My point stands though, because he was still in said weak poitn when he held apart Atlas' fingers, and thus Atlas' force still had to be less than enough to crush weakened Kratos.

Kratos was not in that weakened point.

Hold on, I have a misunderstanding of the chronology, it seems. 😐 Please tell me what state Kratos was in.

When Kratos was crushed by the Collossus, he lost all of his powers, dumping them in the Blade of Olympus.

He was more than half-way through the game when Atlas was trying to crush him.

So how much power had he regained? I didn't think he had the blade of Olympus back yet, ect... o.O

Well he has it in this fight but...

He at that pointed gained powa from the Titanz and whatnot.

It has been a couple years though so I cannot remember any specifics.

Hrmz. This puts holes in my argument, which I shall reorganise!

yea jaxx makes a point. kratos had dumped pretty much everything he had in the blade, and was talking to the gods, and then got slammed by the collosus' whole hand coming down on him, and didnt even die. Atlas holds up the crust of the earth, it wouldnt be very hard for him to put more force on kratos than the collousus did.

It wouldn;t be hard for him too, but it doesn't seem like he did. If Kratos can be damaged by lesser forces like the colossus, I'm just trying to point out that the feat is hard to really quantify.

I shall return with new points.

well look at the situation when he did get hurt. you cant really count it as a valid damage dealing force on kratos.

If it injured Kratos it was enough force to deal damage to KRatos. 😐 Thus he couldn't be able to support that much force.

Apparently he got more powerful before the Atlas incident, but you get the idea, it's valid. Like I said, I'll be back with more info laterz.

again, if kratos had knew the hand was coming i gaurantee you he would not be hurt as much.

If i walk up to you and unexpectedly punch you in your chest my hardest, its going to hurt. But if i warn you before i do it and you have time to embrace the impact it would not hurt nearly as much. If kratos was in a fight with link he would be ready the entire fight, so to use that as a feat against kratos is pretty retarted, unless during some point in the fight kratos would stop paying attention to link and turn his back to him.

If Atlas wanted to crush Kratos, i'm sure he would have done it. He was hurt by a Colossus hand, and him pushing Atlas' fingers could be PIS or a Plot Device. Hell, he needed strength to move Typhon's hand/fingers. Even if Kratos didn't die (it's not like a human wouldn't survive), he was going to die, eventually. Besides, when he cast himself down the highest mountain, he would have died. Kratos knowing the hand coming down has nonething to do with him taking lesser damage. Kratos was also probably weakened when he faces Ares. Not to mention that Colossus wasn't even trying to put pressure on Kratos. If Kratos is so "strong" why does he always struggle? Why does he struggle to open doors? Why does he struggle to push things over? Why couldn't he outstrength Icarus? Hell, even Kratos was pushing Pandora's Box slowly. Heck, how do we know if Atlas' fingers didn't feel like 1-2 tons?

Shut up Gumachi.

He does make so fairly good points, namely Pandoras box and all the struggling Kratos does, its quite consistant and constant, he does a few impressive things but you have to take what he does in chronological order, atm the only impressive strength feat I can think of was when he tossed COlossus of rhodes and that tbh was before he lost all that power. Also I think he does have a high durability feat, like when Ares tossed the spear or w/e it was around the world

The spear killed him.

But from that distance, how much damage did it do? it does not matter at all if it killed him, if I remember correctly it was enormous and thrown from across the planet nearly, it should have gibbed him.

If you look at it, it went from big-to-small (when Ares picked it up, it was big, when it hit Kratos it was small).

hmm fair enough, so what Strength and durability feats does he have?
