We saw a small glimpse of Surfer cutting loose in Annihilation after Galactus changed his mindset, especially in his rematch against Ravenous, where he destroyed the planet and created a black hole. Even then Surfer still spared his life. A Surfer out to kill would be a monster. Too bad he's back to being a pacifist.

Agreed.
Tbh, being out for the kill won't make him in any way more competent, just more ruthless imo.
Originally posted by Sin I AMThis is where we disagree. At least as I interpret it, bloodlusted means you're not thinking clearly, you're being more emotional than tactical. The finer nuances of battle are not tended to because you're more animal-like. So while I could see Surfer pouring on the power like he's cisless, recklessly so (causing major collateral damage), I don't see him applying his vast versatility, thus taking away from his overall effectiveness.
a surfer out for the kill is > a cis-less surfer imo...as he has no qualms about putting an opponent down, ruthless killer. a cis-less surfer will just use all his abilities at his disposal
I suppose I'm modeling him somewhat after a WM Thor. Plus, Exiles Surfer was ruthless*, but I don't recall him using a vast array of exotic powers (did he even use any?). If anything, slicing Glads in half was a pretty basic, animal-like thing to do.
*and what the hell is 'ruth', anyways, such that when you don't have any, you get mean?

The word "ruthless" is middle-English in origin, referring to the biblical story of Ruth; the theme of the story being kindness, love, and redemption.
To say someone is ruthless is to literally say that that person is unlike Ruth; cruel, unforgiving, and unloving. (Ruth+less)

interesting lol. Anyway no normal version of a herald would be able to beat a Cruel, unforgiving, and unloving surfer.
