RULK- Latest version

VS

Beta Ray Bill- Latest version

I can't see Bill taking the amount of butt whippings that Red has been taking for nearly a full year now. Bill wins. Have to hand it to Red though, he can take a hell of a lot of abuse.

Bill.

Bill if he keeps his distance..

Bill, up close or at a distance.

Bill.

rulk vs piotr will determine my opinion

Rulk. He's gotta be tired of letting people punch him. And, happily, BRB is not people, nevermind people who he tried to conquer.

If he fights with determination, I wouldn't be surprised to see him 3-shot BRB too.

They squared off in Annihilators during that team battle with the Avengers & Bill said he was a handfull. Fight was inconclusive though.

If Bill goes all out, I wouldn't be surprised if he splatters Ross' remains all over the planet, assuming Bill doesn't wreck it.

yep. seemed pretty even, but bill was likely holding back some. i'd take bill, like i'd take thor. bill's not quite as versatile as thor, but still, he's got enough on top of his physical power to take out non-loeb rulk.

This is true.

Bill looked to be more dominant in the brief glimpse of their fight that we saw but Rulk should still be problematic if written with respect. Bill wins either way though, especially if he cuts loose.

bill due to versatility. great fight though...rulk in my imo can take a few wins.

Bill wins but if Rulk ever decides to use his full power, I would give him a majority against anyone in his tier minus people that can amp at "will". Rulk is currently holding back but a full powered Rulk is pretty much unstoppable.

Ya, that guy can beat anyone... except Galactus apparently

Nnnnoooo, I'm talking about a Rulk that's using his powers instead of walking around punching people...ya know, his absorption powers.

He was invincible unless he overheated, or Loeb left him in the cold cruel wilderness.

Sigh*

Bieb, you understand exactly what I am saying. This has nothing to do with Loeb.

Guy goes from smashing Odin Thor, Surfer, Hulk, Uatu, Grandmaster, Terrax, etc, to getting beaten by every body ever. Terrax should get another go at him.
Even with his limited absorbing powers he's shown since then, he's been rather shit.

He has been on a losing streak because of him "not" using his absorption abilities. Was there any other time he used it outside of Loeb writing him?

^ I never liked the whole "he had been using his absorption powers the whole time" schtick for the initial battles. Annoying cop-out retcon.

Loeb just wrote him extremely high end.

He used it one time after that and that wasn't in a fighting situation.

All of his fts came from him using his absorption abilities.

Rulk is a disapointment, if he is written like he was at first he wins, otherwise he lose

All of his fts came from him using his absorption abilities. Used it against Hulk, Cosmic Hulk, and used it a couple more times. It's "killing him" though.

Oh? And I'm sure you have some scans to back this up?

Don't need scans. Everything went downhill when he stopped using it.

You certainly do need scans to say that all of his good feats from then come from energy absorption though
