Originally posted by srankmissingninAsgard is back in Asgard since Odin rebuilt it in Siege. Anyway the first thing that happened the Asgardians took up shelter on earth was two idiots got drunk and one of them was killed by accident in a duel because the rules on earth were different and they weren't protected the same.
Thing is fast too. Virtually every time he throws down with someone we are told that his massive bulk doesn't slow him down any... and Shatterstar danced around him like he was Spider-man. If you want to say that Balder is faster or more skilled than Shatterstar... then prove it. You saying "He's Asgardian!" is inconsequential. He doesn't have the feats to back your opinion of what he can do. On panel feats show that Shatterstar is faster and more skilled than Balder.
Ben Grimm would smash Balder. We saw how Shatterstar dealt with him.
The Thing was trained as a wrestler, how can you begin to compare Balder's skill as a true warrior to Monday Night Raw? Balder would kill the Thing in a true battle as well, simply because he has the skill to do so. Shatterstar is not on Spiderman's level so let's not go there. Balder defeated was the last warrior standing in a battle that Thor, Loki, and several other very skilled warriors competed in, which shows me that he does have the feats to defeat a much weaker Shaterstar. Shatterstar would not even be able to defend himself if he attempt to parry with his sword, because he would be sorely lacking in strength to take the hit, even behind his sword. This is common sense. One guy can hit with 50 tons of force with a sword, and the other guy has yet to even lift a 2 ton sedan. Balder would hit him like a major league baseball power hitter hits a baseball. Sorry there is no contest Balder wins.

I was also wondering if Balder can be hurt on Earth, and what are the forum rules regarding him? According to forum rules Shatterstar may not even be able to hurt him if he does not will himself to be vulnerable. These are questions that need answers to.
Doesn't really matter. He is faster, stronger, crazy skills (best swordsman/combatant) in Asgard, and he'll just burn the bastid.

He couldn't stop Thor from swinging his hammer, it's an irresistible force. He just needed to ride it out and hope for the best.
Awesome Thor managed to catch a featless Zefra who has an ambiguous level of super speed! Wow.
FYI I've seen all of Thor's sad sack "speed feats" before. This isn't the first time someone has tried to make the case that he is faster than the top tier streets... and they've all failed miserably.
Ive made the argument and won iirc
