Why not? They were using the power. It's insane to assume he wasn't using a power he had at his disposal and didn't one of the brother possess the full Phoenix force?

You can't quantify how much of the Pheonix force they were using, or if they even knew how to tap it. It's not like Jean, where they were host to the Phoenix entity; we're talking about a completely different set of circumstances.

I agree to a certain extent. The sword was forged to contain the Phoenix Force and kept it in control...they were able to tap into this power but like you said, we don't know how much they were dipping in to. Just a small piece still make it a high showing since an inexperience Phoenix was able to stalemate/beat Galactus.

I don't see how, when an inexperienced Phoenix would still be infinitely more times powerful.
It's like smothering a Kryptonian baby in their crib and then saying you beat a creature as powerful as Superman.

I would put them around low Herald imo. I get what you are saying and I agree if it wasn't stated on panel how powerful they were.

So if they were low herald, he beat a couple of characters (with help) weaker than him. Okay...
Originally posted by carver9We're good. Feel free to use the feat. I'm just stating for the record that that wasn't Nova anywhere near his best. Besides, I've had to work damn hard to get ppl to look at Rider as a solid mid herald. Some even as a hh. I can't be having images of him running around bouncing off of peoples chests! What are you trying to do to me man? 😂
Da** my boy Hulk got messed up. You didn't have to post that dmills...that's messed up.Dmills, my point in bring Gladiator up is to show Gladiator durability. It's not a low showing for Rich involving him bouncing off of Gladiators chest like that since we all know Rich is a top tier...it just shows you how durable Gladiator is.

Yeah, sorry for the bad wording.
Guy thinks they're brothers, and he thinks the sword powered Rook... 2 page Phoenix Forcer. Oh, and he thought his name was Korvak...
Basically Carver, the Guard somehow took out Rook'shir (who only focused his power through the sword), and then Gladiator head punched him, and a tiny remnant of his power stayed in his sword that only descendants could use. Which was Korvus, and that guy was a pussy.
The all off panel fight against the Phoenix user is pretty much Gladiator's/The Imperial Guard's best feat. Which, quite frankly, is sad.

Still can't believe I spent actual money on that comic.
