Originally posted by carver9So, would that mean who's had the most/highest trans showings? First impressions...
Based off their showings (everything counts here), who is closer to trans tier?
Superman, I think, has the highest outlier feats, whereas Thor beats him on average. Surfer has some intense stuff too, of course, but (afaik) he has never done well against Thanos, Galactus (not as well as Thor), nor has he ever beaten Thor solidly (stalemated, yes, but not outright, on his own power, defeat). Again, this is a general impression (not an expert, am I).
I believe someone once posted that, because DC doesn't have as well developed a cosmic hierarchy as Marvel, that sometimes DC's 'A' listers have to rise to that occasion. Also, the essence of the Superman character is to always "save the day" (even when other DC superheroes fail). Surfer, otoh, is more of a philosophical platform, often tragic (it's why Stan Lee loved him), where his power is not the point.
Generally though, I consider these top 3 more/less equals, and that victory in any fight between them would be circumstance determined.
Good match Carver. These are the top three heralds in my oppinion. All of them have hurt universal and in Thor and Supermans case hurt multiversal beings. In answer to your actual question, I must give my nods to the original superhero.
Superman
Thor/Surfer
In who I believe to be thenover all most powerfull due to powersets
Sufer
Thor
Superman

Here's some more off the top of my head.- Overpowered Mephisto in his own realm so save Shalla-Bal's soul. Mephisto is supposed to be nigh-omnipotent in his realm.
Not under his own power.
- Defeated Tenebrous and Aegis, both are Galactus level
Overloaded him when we don't know his capabilities to store energy as he was already full as per his admission.
- Beat Krosakis, who had Gladiator's power stacked with the Uni-Power
Not only Abom was weakened after he nearly killed hulk by banner but surfer put him to sleep. And weakened Abom is no Herald. Even Namor has pushed his shit in.
- Beat down classic Abomb who killed Savage Hulk
Skaar was using oldpower to destroy the planet not actually amping his strength. And Skaar is no Herald.
- Beat down Super Skaar tapping into his whole planet's Old Power
Did he? Or did he trap him into a black hole?
- Beat Red Shift without his board
Only genuine win.
- Beat Firelord twice
Holy shit, so much context is left for this.
- Beat Uni-Lord
Straight up?
- Beat Durok
😂
No, he didn't. He absorbed his power which was taken from him. He has lost twice to his clones, first by skrull surfer and by cosmic Messiah.
- Disintegrates his clone, who was equal to him in power
Haha, what?
- Nearly splattered Super Skrulls brains with one punch
Did he now?
- Beat Mrrungo Muu
It was a board attack. But it was also in the same time where Namor could ko him.
- Knocked out Savage Hulk with one blast

Surfer beat the follwing Heralds
Beta Ray Bill
Burned out Cable.
God like Cable
Didn't beat him.
Nova Prime
Killed his seeker first. And without the seeker, Ravenous would be lucky to be a meta.
Ravenous
Legacy? GTFO.
Genis Vell
Does he?There is more.. A lot more, but he has a big string of victories in this wight class

Wondy is DC's Superman stopper. Even in new 52 he's her biatch. 😛
"Hey Clark. Bend down and assume the position. We call this Amazonian style."
Not to mention the bitchslap he gives her in their fights.

Iron Man's has never pushed Surfer's shit in. The best he could do is accomplish is a double KO via using his own power against him, and this was during the era when Surfer was depowered to a fraction of his original power.Here's a more recent encounter, where Surfer tanks the combined attack of Iron Man, Wonder Man, Vision, Ms. Marvel, and Wasp after Surfer's energy was disrupted.
And the best Iron Man and his team could do is stall Surfer, they couldn't even KO him.
mmm

Using the Old Power to destroy the planet doesn't automatically stop him from using it to amp himself, the Old Power flows through Skaar's veins and is an artificial Power Cosmic. That's like saying when Surfer blasts, his durability is weakened, which obviously isn't true. And planet busting isn't herald level?
Did he? Or did he trap him into a black hole?
Only genuine win.
According to you only Morg and Firelord count. Actually, you don't even count the Morg fight because you claim Morg knocked himself out with his own energy, which is ridiculous and untrue.
Also there's the time he beat Terrax twice.
Straight up?
😂 No, he didn't. He absorbed his power which was taken from him. He has lost twice to his clones, first by skrull surfer and by cosmic Messiah.

It was a board attack. But it was also in the same time where Namor could ko him.
This was their first meeting and before Surfer was depowered. Namor can KO Hulk with a single attack?
And even if it was a board, why would it not count? The board is part of Surfer.

Cable wasn't burned out during their fight, or else he wouldn't be able to do things like hold up providence, fight Surfer and help reconstruct the damage on the fly.
Ravenous isn't a meta. Meta's don't survive point blank planetary explosions.
Legacy was still a herald level. Not high herald, but still herald level.

Well, I guess this never happened?

In the more recent encounter (which I posted) where Surfer isn't depowered, Iron Man and his team couldn't KO Surfer with their combined attack, even after disrupting Surfer's energies.

Abhi's not completely lowballing.In some of those cases he's providing context, which gets ignored so very often.
Unfortunately a lot of people only have 2 settings
"stomp"
or
"PIS contextual win"
Also some retard voted Hulk. Please die.

I care about feats too, I mean that I wish that they stop treating Thor like a punching bag/jobber and start putting him back in or near the trans tier again. I want Thor fighting Thanos, attacking Galactus, uber Doom etc...
A properly written Thor is great, and it's long overdue. 👆

Seriously? So where's Abby's context when he claimed that Surfer couldn't beat Firelord even though the scans show Surfer had him on the ground trying to reason with him when Firelord landed a sucker blast from the ground?? Abby is the last poster on this board to champion context. Of course he's attempting to lowball and does so daily.
