Very...VERY...bad...matchups...

In this thread we will explore fights where a character can consistently beat another character that is atleast 2 tiers higher than he/she/it is (CIS/PIS are off btw)...

Two examples come to mind:

1) Superman (High Herald) vs Nimrod (Low Herald); Between Nimrods ability to reconstruct itself from near total destruction, its rapid ability to adapt to and negate enemy strengths, and its ability to scan a foe and come up with a weapon that can kill its target, I am thinking that this is a very, VERY, bad matchup for Supes...

I honestly cant see Supes beating Nimrod at all save perhaps via BFR, for after Nimrod scans his weaknesses, it just becomes a bladed kryptonite weapon or kryptonite-based disintegrator beam waiting to happen...

And combined with being almost totally indestructable...I believe Supes goes down to this thing for a large majority (bare minimum) every single time...hell, unless Supes can get some wins via BFR, I truly believe he inevitably loses to Nimrod 10/10.

2) Ultron (Low Herald) vs Adam Warlock (High Herald); Warlocks Soul Gem would be completely useless in this matchup and there is absolutely nothing Adam could do to harm Ultron physically...nor can I see Warlock beating him via BFR...

So its inevitable in my minds eye...Ultron beats Adam Warlock every single time and there isnt a dam thing Warlock can do to prevent it.

Now that you see where I am heading with this, think up some matchups that fall in line with the two above examples...

I think it'll make for some great brain storming and debate! 🙂

Blink vs. a character that can be BFRed

Supes grinds Nimrod into dust..then eats it.

Supes would have no issues with Nimrod.

Yeah so he's right it's very very bad matchup 🙂

Why wouldnt Supes have trouble with Nimrod?

Is Supes immune to being scanned for weaknesses? Is Supes immune to kryptonite based weapons? Can Supes just casually, utterly, destroy Nimrod beyond its ability to reconstruct itself?

No, no, and no...so how in the hell can Supes have no trouble in this matchup?

Please...feel free to extrapolate with your answers...support why you feel the way you feel.

You assume he can create K-nite from the scratch which is even in DC almost impossible.

can sandman kill hulk?

Yes, Hulk doesnt like sand. Hes afraid of it, its his kryptonite.

LOL...

Batman was able to synthesize this stuff with nothing more than effort and a huge bank account.

So the most advanced Sentinel ever, from the future (thus using ultra advanced tech), that was created with weakness exploitation (which it used to kill countless mutants; was a major factor in driving them to extinction) as one of its key features cant synthesize this stuff...eh?

😆

I'm not sure Nimrod can change his body into kryptonite. If I'm not mistaken, Nimrod re-configures his pre-existing components to create the effects, he doesn't transmute his base materials into different substances (like Martian Manhunter or Apocalypse). I'm not sure Nimrod has the components to change his substance into kryptonite on a whim, but he probably does have the capacity to emit kryptonite's radioactive frequency, if not red solar energy.

However, since Nimrod has issues with cold, and Supes has his super freeze breath, I'm pretty sure he could just indefinitely keep Nimrod frozen and shattered.

Wouldnt Nimrod eventually adapt to the cold and come back after Supes...

At which time, that tactic wont work anymore...

And maybe Nimrod cant turn himself into pure kryptonite, but he should definitely be able to make weapons that duplicate it effects...

Which essentially makes the weapons "kryptonite" as they would do the exact thing and have the exact same effect...in other words, they'd be kryptonite in all but name and formality.

Yeah except it was imperfect and inferior.

And Nimrod cant do better?

Besides, as was pointed out, all Nimrod really has to do is duplicate its effects...which should definitely be within his capability.

This is a fact.
