Sersi Vs Maxima

Maxima does not rival Superman in anything other than possessing powers that he does not have. She can not survive the higher damage thresholds that he has walked away from. She is crazy tough, powerful, and extremely strong, but so is Sersi when truly waging war.

Is there any proof to question whether or not Sersi being in a feral mind set isn’t her true game face? Kind of like, this is what she looks like beneath the makeup?

Think about the notion of being in it to win it.

This could go either way.

Her initial burst speeds suggest that there may be a possibility that Sersi could weather it. Eternals are extremely hard to kill after all, and they can be pretty fast themselves.

Almaracian’s (or however it is spelled) are sort of like the weak cousins of the Kryptonian’s in terms of physical statistics. However, she is nowhere near as tough as Superman, and could not survive many of the things that he has. If Sersi can not react even though a telepathic probing would likely be the first action, then she may be turned into a high speed punching bag before being KTFout.

I just don’t think that it is within Maxi’s character to bull rush off of the bat in this particular case, but she most certainly could. I believe that in no matter the amount of battles waged between these two, that one thing is certain to happen first. They will both immediately sense each other’s TP probes, and from there the battle will begin.

Sersi does have the power to destroy Maxima if she is able to successfully land the attack, and Maxima can most certainly KO Sersi in a more docile, or civil mindset. I’m just not entirely certain that this would be the case if faced by Sersi operating with the feral mind set? My less than eager desire to immediately crown Maxima the winner here, is pinned down by the telepathic link that they would naturally and immediately form the moment that the battle begins. Speed alone may not be how this turns out. Or begins.

I lean toward Zop’s opinion on the subject.

Ive read pretty much everything Eternal related and I'm 100 percent certain that she wouldn't survive a speedblitz or bullrush from an elite herald level character and would probably be flash koed it simply koed. She doesn't have that kind of durability nor reaction feats. Now if it were prolonged and Maxima didn't use her speed then it skews back to Sersi.

Fair enough, but I reserve the right to research Sersi’s interactions with Thane Ector. The Mighty Avengers 334-339. There may be others that suggest that Maxima would not steam-roll Sersi as well, will see if I can find any. Remember, more things would likely happen here other than a bull-rush. This is all meaningless however, if we aren’t using Sersi to the best of her ability.

What did Sersi do to Thane?

Maxima's durability on the high end is trading blows with Doomsday or taking Batman pressure-point attacks from Superman. Regarding the latter, this is in the ballpark of Superman fighting Gor hand-to-hand. However, while the conditions during the encounter with Clark versus a commander from the Kryptonian Military Guild were even, Maxima was actually facing off against a somewhat sun-dipped version of OWAW Clark who remarked that he felt like he could move planets around.

Maxima's teleportation feats are in the 100 trillion light-years in terms of distance given how far away Earth is from Almerac. Compared to Sersi, it's probably worth pointing out here that Maxima doesn't risk being paralyzed at her destination.

Nothing, I had to go further past that arc. I actually side with you on this after reading more stories with her in them. I don't believe that Maxima would one shot, but she definitely has her in the physical stats dept.

Maxima also held her own against Doomsday and kinda damaged him, though eventually she lost.
