Thunder clap, gamma blast, ability to overcome bfr. Speed that gets augmented when angry. Preventative for matter manipulation, transmutation. Adapting abilities. Etc, etc, etc..

How can Hulk overcome bfr?

Where in comics does it say that Hulk's speed is augmented further when more angry?

Most top tiers have defenses against that. But thats not versatility (not offense).

You take one adapting feat in Hulk's whole career (breathing underwater) and think its going to fly on the forum? Especially when Hulk has not adapted anytime in battle.

His body adapts to extremes in temperature, his lungs adapt to environment, his strength increases are an adaptation, his eyes adapt to detect invisible beings, his body has adapted in order to touch, grab, or hit intangible and energy based opponents. This has happened on panel. It is your choice to ignore these showings, or to acknowledge them.

hulk is so versatile he can create black hole in superman's brain

How did I forget about Hulk absorption abilities and yes, he's even absorbed cosmic energy before.

leonidas
but you haven't put together a plan that shows he can take mags out carv. this is your chance to showcase hulk's exotic abilities. let the scans roll, man...

the biggest thing to overcome is the blood control. how does he avoid being made a mags puppet ala the avengers and she-hulk?

carver9
Aaahhhh, this is Hulk vs Magneto... like, the Magneto that was said on panel (backed by a team) that he isn't in Hulk league?

https://ibb.co/s3pdqb6

Question, I'm just curious... what is messing with Hulks blood suppose to do?

🤣🤣🤣... he doesn't need to talk. Lol... what were you expecting, all of them to mind link and say the same statement at the same time. The writer made it clear they were no match for him.

Remove BFR and it's a different story.

Kluh is Hulk, just a Hulk that doesn't care. Yes, it's a statement about a team Cable is HIGHLY familiar with from a character that knows the team potential. Mags doesn't need to say it. If Cap say Galactus is out of the Avenger league then he is out of their league since he knows the team potential. Cable knows Magneto, EVERYTHING about Magneto. I think you should move away from this topic.

dur If Cap Says that Silver Surfer is out of the Avengers league then he isn't because Thor would still beat SS sorry arse.

Lol at comparing Hulk to G. That is a new low.

anyway, the fight is in a standard ring, no bfr is available unless you consider mag's opening a black hole a means to bfr....

as for what can blood control do:

https://imgur.com/a/Gsromkq

she-hulk couldn't break free until mags let her. i have my own feelings how the blood thing would go, but i wonder if in the hulk's arsenal anyone can think of something that would directly counter that attack. in theory, i'm not sure the blood thing would actually ko hulk, but it would likely incapacitate him long enough to count for a forum win. mags could literally pull all the blood out of the hulk which might briefly ko him before the healing factor kicked in i guess.

let's see some real versatility scans of hulk that might convince someone he could win a forum match against mags.

In that case, I don't believe that Magneto has the power to restrain the Hulk for long. The Hulk pushed the Inbetweener who was at half power. I can't imagine Magneto being even close to being as powerful as even half of the Inbetweener.

The only way that I can see Magneto beating the Hulk is through BFR, or depowering the Hulk. Trying to restrain him just won't work, and I'm considering pre Uncanny X-Men issue 199. The Hulk has feats of strength that made the Shaper of Worlds have fits. He tore open dimensional barriers that were set to imprison a powerful race of demonic creatures during his time on the Crossroads. His upper level strength feats are ridiculous.

Isn't restraining Hulk a prerequisite to bfr him? Sure, he won't hold him forever, there we agree but he should be able get rid of him.

Leo turned BRF off. This is why I said that. I just can't see Magneto restraining the Hulk, and we're about to get a taste of that in the next Hulk comic where he likely flattens the U-Foes. I could see him messing with his connection to the Gamma Force and turning him back into Joe Fixit as is his current personality, but straight up restraining him wouldn't work for long.

Cap wouldn't say that because he knows people on his team is powerful enough to fight Surfer. Cable knows no one on the team is powerful enough to fight Hulk. There's a difference here.

Okay, but Magneto was severely depowered at the time.

He was even warped into the size of a mouse and his body countered it and he was back to his normal size in a couple of panels.

With that said, Magneto blood crap will work in the beginning but Hulk will resist it in no time and knock him clean out.

Compared to Thor, Hulk IS a one dimensional brick.


What could he do is Thor dropped him into the Dark Dimension, or just knocked him in to space?

Good thing Thor is much dumber than Hulk at his worst.

Fast and brutal enough to keep Hulk from healing and shrugging it off, huh? Based on what, exactly?

We forget you are so knowledgeable about Magneto... you, who thought that Fatal Attractions was non-canon vin

You're going to be banished to the Rage Zone, Dambo. The kmcouncil has decided.

Surrounded by Somalians, never allowed to leave!

Because he wouldn't be able to do anything when he's in the air 🤷‍♂️ his blood is getting pulled, not his muscles, nothing to fight against.

That would be GG.

It's the same reason no Hulk fan will ever take a battlezone against Thor. Because Thor would beat every incarnation of the Hulk combined if he's allowed to use his powers.

i think the general idea is that the hulk has performed several impossible and even 'illogical' feats. overcoming mag's control could just be one more. the other thing i've garnered is that even if he did control him for a time, hulk might be able to overcome that control as his power grew. without bfr what would mags do with him once he's airborne? hulk is immortal. he'd win via attrition. mags could try to...pull him apart? hulk would heal. sooo.... i dunno.

But what control is he overriding? Hulk has never shown control of his blood cells, for example.

It just boils down to 'Yeah well, Reed has done impossible intelligence feats, so he wins'.

Immortality is a copout. Mr Immortal doesn't win every match, nor does Deadpool in a street level match etc....

Good question. As far as I know, that part was never clear.


From google:

In most cases, a knockout lasts less than 10 seconds, after which the person regains consciousness. However, a bad knockout can last longer than a minute and even several minutes. The length of the knockout depends on the severity of the concussion and whether or not the brainstem was damaged.


Of course, we need to factor in that comics can be weird about it, too.

Or fiction in general. In reality you don't get KOed and are out for hours and wake up with just a headache before being fine. I think it was being unconscious for even a few minutes could be a sign of serious brain damage or worse.

StiltmanFTW
Correct. Jinzin, decade or two ago, was always reminding everyone on the basics of how a knockout works irl laughing out loud

In comics, it can last anywhere from fraction of a second (flash-ko) to even hours, as you said. Or longer stick out tongue

Which is fine, I guess, when the ko'd character has superhuman physicals, alien physiology, healing factor or some other power related to physical attributes.

But those extreme knockouts happen to everyone, even completely powerless heroes/villains.

What about incap'ing someone via other method?

Restraining, immobilizing, etc.?

Yeah, Shaw's not the best example, not just because of the nature of his abilities, but because he lost, iirc.

Magneto can be clobbered, sure, but he does have many options to avoid that or prevent the opponent from doing that.

Even when writers reduce him to being the magnet-guy, he can still be incredibly creative with just his metal control.

If I fight a young boy, and hold him down - doesn't matter if he's still fighting back, or healing, I'm still controlling his limbs.

But yeah,all the responses for Hulk seem to boil down to 'he finds a way'.

No it isn't if there's a power struggle. Incapacitated means there would be no struggle. We know that there would be, and we also know that Magneto doesn't have to power to hold the Hulk. If he does, that would mean that Magneto would outshine the Inbetweener at half power, and that doesnt really make much sense.

Magneto can just lift Hulk and hold him there casually.
Hulk cant struggle against that.

I point out Iron Fist outshines Spider-Man against a common enemy, Black Tarantula, and this proves Danny should be able to defeat Shang Chi rather easily, and get countered that BT was "jobbing".

Yet Hulk outshines In Betweener, and people just accept it as a "feat". No possibility In Betweener, even at half power, was jobbing for Hulk.

No double standards there.

no idea. but i think the case with the hulk here is different from ds's juggernaut example. jugg's powers don't continually escalate like hulk's do. i don't think it would be too long before hulk's strength simply exceeded mag's power. or maybe his blood adapts. i also don't know how it can be called an incapacitation when we don't even know how long someone needs to be incapacitated FOR to earn a win...? i don't see mags holding him for long--a minute? less? he can go full wb and just overwhelm mags with energy. i don't think anyone would say mags could contain wbh or deal easily with the energy hulk puts off. i think it's much more likely hulk would go full wb than there is of his losing via incapacitation. and unlike a bz where hulk was limited, there's no reason to prevent his going wb.

even staying short of that though, there is reason to think hulk might be able to overcome that type of control if he has time.

to me, an incapacitation means the enemy is prone, done, in a position where he/she/it can be killed. ww incapacitates with the lasso. the webbing would incapacitate SOME, but only delay others. i can't believe in all the time the forum's been around the rule has never been fleshed out clearly. not blaming anyone, it's just weird is all. shrug

carver9
I just don't get why people tend to lowball Hulk. Magneto stands no chance. Even Reed compared Hulk to the Phoenix Force and called him an Omega level threat...

https://comicvine1.cbsistatic.com/uploads/original/10/104431/3849925-asm692_0016.jpg

Ironman compared him to a Celestial destroying Robot (that actually fought against the entire Celestial race).

StiltmanFTW
Good thing Mags easily handled Phoenix twice, then cool

ShadowFyre
Do people really lowball him though Carver? Even in a comics forum we have to be somewhat realistic.

When two people both have planetary level strength and durability (just an example) but one of them flies, can move and react at 187,000 mph and oh yeah, shoots lasers right out of they're ****ing face or control electromagnetism, storms wtf ever. Its kind of a no brainer who wins.

Now obviously, if he clearly outclassed them so much they can't hurt him is a different story.

This. I mean, there's a reason people don't draft him in BZs. Even Carver doesn't - I think to date I'm the only one who has willingly chosen WBH in a tourney.

Now obviously, if he clearly outclassed them so much they can't hurt him is a different story.

I always see flight and reflexes as something different. Example, Surfer can easily fly billions of times the speed of light but I would still give Diana the edge overall reflexes. Gladiator can fly millions of times the speed of light and can basically do everything you've mentioned but I would give JLA Darkseid the edge over him, even though he doesn't have a single speed ft during that Era (hell, even now) that come close to what Gladiator have performed. Now we can easily say as soon as the bell ring, Darkseid is a statue to Gladiator and Gladiator punch him in the face with a hundred planetary level punches in less than a nano second but we both know this isn't true. I feel like this, if you're going to argue something, then be consistent. Yes, some beings might have showings of tagging faster beings or being too fast for someone to see, probably ONCE but if you're going to argue speed, it needs to be across the board. Is Surfer, Gladiator, Wonder Woman, Northstar, Quick Silver, Monica, to fast for Darkseid to react to which leads to them having a life time to kill him or can he slap them to sleep because on panel showings prove he can. I'm just using him as an example.

I can use World Forger as well. I can use Monarch, Orion, etc... lol, make an Orion vs Monica/Spectrum thread and let's see the results. There's a reason I'm using DC characters as well.

Lmao we are STILL on this powerset argument....Carver, I am beginning to think you are actually legally retarded.

Wait, that was in response to what I wrote? Ok, I'm just saying if two people have 3 powers that are comparable, but one has 3 more powers than the other...

No, because that's not what we do. That post was just horrendous.

ShadowFyre
I sometimes think that debating off of powerset is more realistic than what they do in comics. Thats mainly due to shitty writing.

I mean, I personally think someone like Philo would run circles around what these writers do with someone like Thor or Magnetos powerset.

You're not wrong.

Most of the people on this board have at least one or two characters that they know far better than some random writer that came onboard in the last month. And you will have people say "well you're not a writer, how can you know better than a writer?". This is the internet age. If I wanted to read Amazing Spider-Man 1-700, I can do that.

But will random writer 47 take the time to do that? I don't think so.

But if you hand someone that has done the reading, and knows the character that well, then they're obviously going to write a version of the character that's far more efficient/effective in a fight than other writers have.

DarkSaint85
We also have posters who actually know a bit about science etc. And conversely, comic writers who admit they make mistakes with science.

Yup.

I mean, I know all my science from Star Trek, and I'd still be more convincing than some of those guys.

Is the writer even thinking about those things though when writing stories? Some probably do but its rare.

A lot of comics border on, if not completely become science fiction. Good science fiction, even if it's not the hard kind, has to, imo, have at least a basic scientific foundation. And it has to be consistent.

Using vague words that sound impressive isn't good enough when this is what they're being paid to do for a living.

This is an interesting thread. At what point does versatility outweigh raw power?

For example : If you were forming a team and needed a brick/tank, who would you choose : Gladiator or Hulk, Captain Marvel (Shazam) or Hulk, Wonderman or Hulk, Blue Marvel or Hulk, Hickman's Hyperion or Hulk? IMHO, Hulk would be any of these guys for the majority in a straight up fight but flight + their other powers makes it so they can do things he can never do.

problem with that is in a forum he is often limited to below wbh level. you think anyone you named can beat wbh? i certainly don't. in a no bfr environment i think hulk would throttle all the people you named... if ALL of his showings are considered valid, his powerset is actually pretty ridiculous. i mean hulk can adapt to breathing underwater, doesn't need to breathe in space (he doesn't really HAVE to hold his breath...immortal hulk has made it even more redundant), his healing factor is ridiculous, he's performed legit impossible feats --i mean LEGIT impossible feats like punching time, holding energy. his 'strength' is as much a deux ex machina as thor's hammer in some cases--and those feats were well BEFORE he was even wwh let alone wbh. his ability to adapt to things is often overlooked because it's not often used. but he's adapted to things about as often as thor has used the godblast, or lobo has used clones. yet it is NEVER a factor in his matches. it is a little puzzling. marvel itself seems to consider hulk one of if not its MOST powerful hero, but that doesn't translate at all to the forum.....

Well, what has he adapted to? And I don't mean just becoming stronger, ect, or doing weird things via strength. What feats are there to work with? I wouldn't say he's completely restricted to this in a topic but there's only so far you can go beyond what he's actually done before it's No Limits Fallacy.

carver9
They considered Doomsday growing bones over his ears as adapting, lol, but discredit Hulk adapting showings that far exceeds that and let's not pretend Doomsday adapted to physical Damage because this was never shown.

Uh, yes it was. And Doomsday did far more advanced than physically adapting his durability.

dd definitely showed more focus in regards to being able to adapt, but we know weaker hulks can adapt to breathing underwater and fury has said hulk can evolve to the point where he doesn't need oxygen if he were put in orbit. his varying degrees of healing are types of adaptation, as is his ability to perform the impossible feats i mentioned above. more recently he's been shown to both both absorb and emit energy, and of course his now immortal nature. his rage enables him to do things that...don't make sense like resist mind control, grow new glands in his body, his blood makes f'n flowers grow ffs laughing out loud none of these abilities are strength related. but he's been pigeon holed as this one dimensional brick. if his full range of abilities were taken into account, i think he's more than just a brick. quite a bit more.

I just feel like hulk isn’t given the same....consideration as other characters are. /shrug

Disagree on the rage making mind control resistence, but other than that(which I do see get brought up when he faces a telepath, at least previously) I have a feeling a lot of the more weird ones are rare to the point in a regular topic, they'd be pretty situational. Someone familiar could use them in a BZ, but it seems weird for them to be brought up in general unless it's a topic like this.

What if the scenario called for someone to lift classic Mjolnir?

Would you choose Hulk, Magneto or Graviton?

Hmmm so tough!

I see your point (One arbitrary impossible scenerio where Hulk is best pick for another)

But bet you Magneto actually does it. laughing out loud

If using the pure of heart, (social justice) warrior Magneto.

While adamantium does absorb some of the kinetic force used against it, it's not vibranium (far from it).

Hulk would kill anyone inside by trying to smash it apart.

And he would fail to do so, too --- Banner admitted on panel that genuine adamantium is unbreakable even by WWH's and Skaar's standards.

Of course he is. And back in the day, his mutations produced plenty of unexpected results:

But it's better to focus on the abilities that are a part of his standard powerset.

Such as the ones you mentioned.

Or his resistance against transmutation.

Interaction with ghosts, always finding his way to the gamma bomb site and so on.

The only adapting feat Hulk has that I know of is breathing underwater. Is there anything else?

DD adapted to the sword, to the OE, to energy brings, etc. More importantly he was stated to be able to evolve on the fly and implied by the writer (through the mother box) that the only thing that could kill him is entropy.

If there is more, does it really matter to you? Tell me your first thought on that question.

He didn't adapt to the sword, he HEALED the damage. Show me him adapting to the Omegas.

It was said Hulk could evolve on the fly. laughing out loud

Is it just wording you're looking for?

No. Strength wouldn't do it at all.


Magneto could lift it with his powers, as could Graviton. Hence my usage.

crazy site doesn't allow edits now.... the hammer being lifted by only the worthy is one of the VERY few things marvel has actually somehow kept consistent through the years. i actually kind of like it. hulk would need to overcome a skyfather enchantment to lift it, and even at wbh levels i don't see that happening. there is no one below odin level who is not worthy that could left it, so i don't really count it against hulk.

Forgot about that.

Now I remember, inanimate objects like Vision could move it too.

So would armored up Tony Stark lift it? Does it know the difference between a remotely controlled shell and inhabited?

Why can't Hulk just adapt to it and lift it hmm

leonidas
apparently his ability to adapt falls short of skyfather level magic...?

DarkSaint85
Is Skyfather level versatility where he caps out then?

Or can we go further down the tiering to get his limit?
