Fallen One is hard to place. They should have kept him around and had him fight someone else. Though judging by him actually being able to blister Galactus, he's probably raw power wise above Surfer.

Galactus was damn near dead at that point though.

Got a couple of PM's with the same question concerning this thread.

Question was : Is this our favorite heralds?

Answer: Its who you think the 5 best heralds are in order from best to worst.

He was recuperating for a while. Maybe somewhere around the level he was in The Devourer. He's supposed to be linked to infinite energy too. Would make sense for him to be higher in output than Surfer.

I don't know though. He had nothing to really go off of besides that. Though his durability didn't seem too great. Plus destroying Sanctuary like that is no joke.

He seemed like something Firelord durability and above Surfer level output.

I'd peg him around Godhunter level. Because it was explicitly stated that Fallen could never harm him before and at that point could kill him.

Meh, surfer has been said to wield nigh infinite power too.

I don't think his power output was above surfer. But yeah, he was crazy powerful.

They are above heralds.

Don't ever insult them like that again.

In some order:

Classic Strange
Superman
Thor
Surfer
Take your pick for #5. Mine would likely be from among Zoom, Swamp Thing, GL Alan (if we're still making the distinction between GL and Sentinel for him) or Hal.

I was always a bit lower on Superman than Thor/Surfer, but it was largely because he was the riskier tourney pick due to weakness exploitation. In a random encounter or forum match, he's probably a sliver above them both.

I might be able to cherry-pick a version of Hulk that I could justify in the last slot. But WBH is too high, and most other versions are just too much of a one-trick pony for me to feel ok about it (even if it's a really good trick).

Also I find it amusing that Surfer can't even make Galactus blink when nearly every top tier can at least make him feel their attacks.

Might have something to do with power source, no? Like trying to attack Banner with gamma radiation.

Balancing raw power, potential and versatility.

Nah, if that'd be a reason Tyrant or Fallen One wouldn't have been able to harm him.

Iirc fallen one had a different power source not linked to PC

Back to topic, Thor, Clark and SS will always be top three, everyone else is interchangeable
