Originally posted by carver9This is odd, carver, because just a few posts ago you proclaimed that CB "wasn't up there with the big boys" solely because of his low-end showing against Ms. Marvel... Yet for some reason you completely write-off/ignore his high-end showing against Phoenix.
He doesn't have one to match it and I agree with the average comment.
Mind explaining the discrepancy..? 🙂

But alt Hulk has been shown, in direct comparison, to be more powerful than Green.
There was an comparison in the comic and it was never said that he was more powerful. The words they used were 'more angry'. Don't know if that Hulk was still angry since they switched him from fighting the Hulk to saving their lives from the drop.

His Phoenix showing is a display of how powerful his shields are. His fight against Carol is the opposite. Would you even consider his Ms. Marvel fight as a low showing? If so, why?
^ So a single cherry-picked low-end feat courtesy of Ms. Marvel constitutes an 'average' in your world?
Originally posted by zopzopIronic, considering that I've personally witnessed you argue that the Mad Celestials were "teh weaksauce" because Thing survived their blasts. But now, it's just a high-end feat for Thing.
Didn't Thing withstand multiple blasts by Rogue Celestials? High feats are nice, but we have to go by averages.
It's interesting to me how you people change your opinions when it suits you.

How many times was Thor humiliated in AvX? But make a Thor vs Captain Britain thread and see how many people choose Brian.

Naah. I'm balancing it out. He fought a top tier...Juggernaut and was getting worked. I know he beat Air Walker but that fight had context and he admitted Air Walker was too powerful. What showing puts him on Sasquash level? That's all I'm asking.

However, you used ONE poor showing as your basis for why CB can't beat Sasquatch:

With that said, that win for Ms. Marvel is legit and it proves that Captain Britain isn't up there with the big boys. Not even close. I change my vote, Sasquash slaughters him.
And THAT is what I'm addressing. You readily accepted ONE low-end feat as law, but swiftly dismissed/ignored a high-end feat as though it shouldn't even be considered. That glaring double-standard is what I have an issue with. If you're going to use averages, use averages. Don't pick and choose when it suits you. 👆

That's a very high end feat, not sure if Sasquatch has one to match but he's got a better average imo.

Are you sure you aren't referring to Iron Man: Legacy of Doom? I ask because the exact same thing happened to Doom in that mini:

She did beat him mostly off panel, but he may have not been at full power because he had a round with War Machine. It should also be noted that losing a fight against Carol isn't a low showing, she's a powerhouse capable of going up against Wonder Man, and easily handling the likes of Tiger Shark..
a) A weaker Captain Britain tanked Binary's best attacks
b) She had Hulk down earlier without hurting him
c) Captain Britain was up and standing in the very next panel
But even if she had beat him there's the fact that
a) He's not in Britain and on a fixed energy reserve
b) Has been fighting a last stand battle against the incursion the last year, and just lost his eye

a) He was weakened by Merlyn at the time.
b) His powers especially waned when he fought someone alone/refused help from team-mates.
c) That was 4 incarnations of Captain Britain ago.
d) You'd know all this by reading the respect thread.
e) Those showings have been posted.
f) He's over Sasquatch's level, and reported for low-balling 🙂
Originally posted by carver9Brian got worked by Juggernaut hard core but a lot of people have. Sasquatch would get rolled by Cain as well as he had his hands full with depowered Cain while Sasquatch was wearing Canadian Hulk-buster armor.

I agree but I don't think he would've worked Sasquash as easily as he did Brian.
