Oh wait, Dante can use Devil Trigger for Shin Akuma? Geez, I keep misreading things!

Though there is a problem:

That's just regular Akuma. I'd hate to be Dante if there was Shin involved.

Nice.. Still, he will have to be alot faster to land effective hits, and thats if they're not absorbed by Royal Guard. (if thats allowed here) And if he manages to get past Dante's speed and Royal Guard any hit will be recovered by his impressive regen thats made more potant in DT.

I don't think Royal Guard could handle something like Akuma (unless it worked on big demons).

By itself it can absorb most of the damage, a right timed one takes in all the damage both for any attack, and in the novel Dante uses Dreadnaught to block the Saviors huge beam attack and didnt take damage from it.

I just played DMC2 and I think if Dante (as crappy as the game was) had access to some of those abilities...he could beat Akuma (the one we know of). Still unsure about Gill.

1-Ryu
Dante has more attacks, moves, and tricks at his disposal so he passes

2-Sagat
Dante has more attacks, moves, and tricks at his disposal so he passes

3-Seth
As long as Seth doesn't absorb him with his ultra, Dante should be fine

3.5-SNH Ryu
As long as he can evade SNH Ryu's raging demon and not get surprised when Ryu does his teleport, Dante should clear with a few injuries. Losses here if Dante isn't allowed to get rest.

4-Gouken
If Gouken's power of nothingness can negate Dante's powers, then Dante loses here. If not, then Dante continues.

5-Oro
Can't recall enough info about Oro

6-Shin Bison
Probably stops here because Shin Bison will go apeshit on Dante with his Psycho powers and overwhelm Dante.

and as for dante out-speeding Bison's warp.... Err, no, Dante cannot react faster than thought. Hes not a DBZ character.
The speed of forming a coherent thought is about 550 milliseconds. Not all that fast honestly.

Though Bison's thoughtspeed is probably greater than the average human's, he has shown to travel at mach 3-4 speeds.

Dante speedblitz.. As far as I know no one in street fighter is hyper sonic

As I always say, Dante can win if he has Yamato. If he does not have it, he will lose, quickly and badly.

All the speed in the world is worthless if you lack the strength to hurt the foe and the stamina to survive even the slightest assault.

He is gonna need that sword against, Evil Ryu, Shin Bison, Akuma, and Gill for sure, cuz those guys have damage soak and destructive power output beyond Dante's wildest dreams. They all could literally vaporize or liquify him in 1 move. And anything he throws out at'em, that's not from Yamato, will tickle them at best.

no if you watched the gilgamesh video it clearly shows dante cutting up the hellgate with the spikes on gilgamesh http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeYPxNsVSNc

You banned QS but Dante still has acess to the Bangle Of Time, which completely stops time.

What does that have to do with what I said? Yamato is stated to slice through the fabric of space, itself. That's very sharp and is literally his only chance at a win and as the plot of SFIV advances, his chances are becomin less and less slim.

I would sort of agree.

Against the top-tiers of SF, Dante would be hard-pressed to hurt them.

Nuke+ surviving is not out of the realm of possibility for them.

Lol show me some durability feats then I'll believe you cause the shit you're saying isn't making sense

YouTube video

In this video, Bison flies faster than a jet, as well as surviving his base going nuclear while being bombed. Yes, he is then taken out by jet bullets, but by then IIRC his Psycho Drive was destroyed.

Lol seriously? The fastest jet moves at mach 9.8 Dante's fastest speed is Mach 15 and how do we even know that ending is canon? Seriously it's contradicted by everyone's else's ending where they too also kill bison and him being killed by jet bullets proves he probably had a psyho power shield on when he tanked that nuke so yeah Dante still rapes nice try though

We see him being hit by the explosion, there is no shield. And once more: Psycho Drive was destroyed. Plus, you know, he could have been injured by the nuke, but surviving it alone is above a feat of Dante's.

I'm not saying Bison is as fast as Dante, but he and other top-tiers have large-scale AOE to compensate for the lack of speed.

Try to be a little more clever the next time you debate me.

still haven't showed me if that ending was canon or not

Endings show canon abilities short of examples where someone beat someone else or power-ups.

Though this event occurs throughout multiple endings, and is part of the canon in SFA3.

... I don't really feel like looking for the information needed to show this.

Bison is nuked, in canon, in this ending.

Then he comes outta of it all, and fights her, a very strong character.

Those are the final events of SFA3's story. To get the whole story, read here http://www.gamefaqs.com/arcade/564869-street-fighter-alpha-3/faqs/14699

And Akuma and Evil Ryu are on the same lvls and split mountains and blow up islands, whilst holdin back. And the Laws of Motion dictate that the physical force a body can dish out can be taken in.

Bison flies faster than fighters jets. Dante can't fly at all. Advantage, Bison.

And Bison never dies permanently in any of the endings, due to the Psycho Drive makes Bison immortal and he can revive an infinite number of times.
