I’d post this on r/TheBoys but it doesn’t allow powerscaling posts. Here we go:

A-Train in s5 episode 1 goes way faster than he’s ever gone before (and there’s no mention of a power up, training, etc) and Homelander can keep up with him and spammed lasers, yet Homelander didn’t fight like this in either of his fights in season 3. Homelander in season 4 was unable to catch hughie in a chase yet Homelander kept pace with a-train in season 5.

Butcher in season 4 ripped Neuman in half quicker than he almost ripped Cindy in half in season 5 and since starlight easily snapped Cindy’s neck, Neuman is a lot more durable than Cindy considering we’ve seen starlight attack neuman and they never thought of starlight as an option for killing Neuman.

Butcher gets up quickly from Homelander’s lasers (and somehow evades Homelander’s senses quickly) yet butcher takes a long time to get up from Bombsight’s attacks who is Soldier Boy level and even Soldier Boy himself admits he is below Homelander. Bombsight literally just threw butcher to the ground and through a couple walls. Also Kimiko is also able to make butcher struggle some in the fort harmony fight, and we know she’s one of the weakest supes throughout the show. Somehow she’s also able to get up from bombsight’s attacks faster than butcher is.

Bombsight uses super speed against butcher and Kimiko but conveniently doesn’t use it against Soldier boy. Soldier boy bleeds homelander with 1 punch yet in season 3, soldier boy and butcher wailing on Homelander’s face didn’t bleed him. Ryan also bleeds homelander which is crazy considering seconds later Ryan gets incapped by getting slammed into a wooden box a few times.

Soldier boy got briefly pinned by a car thrown by butcher yet soldier boy goes on to beat bombsight who easily beat butcher. Soldier boy and butcher had a close fight in season 3.

Black noir tanked minigun bullets in season 4 yet the Deep uses a knife to stab noir one time which kills him. Noir conveniently didn’t use his flight.

Starlight just doesn’t use her powers at all vs Oh Father.

Sage is listed as an expert of human thinking yet she seemingly didn’t consider soldier boy’s love for stormfront.

Soldier boy’s blast can now go off in seconds but for some reason in season 3 when homelander was around it took over a minute for the blast to launch.

Etc

What did I miss?

Round 1: pre dark side Anakin vs base Maguire Spider-Man

R2: corrupted Anakin vs Maguire Spider-Man with symbiote

R3: Darth Vader vs MCU iron suit Spider-Man

Quinn. I thought Homelander being a dick was typical but he wasn’t really like that when they were outside fort harmony. It wasn’t till they got inside the building that he started being more of a dick. Soldier Boy was seemingly helping Homelander but then the influence of Quinn made Soldier Boy trap Homelander, yes? I mean, in the upcoming episode, based on the marketing we know they are still teamed up. Maybe Soldier Boy is genuinely team Homelander, or maybe it’s more for survival sake. Maybe SB feels the need to help Homelander because Homelander spared Soldier Boy. Thoughts?

Obviously in 1v1s yes he solos anyone in The Boys verse, but there are just too many crazy abilities for him to contend with especially considering he’s just a flying brick. The Seven alone would already give him a tough fight. Throw in the blood types (Marie, Neuman, Cindy, etc) and some of the other wacky powers and it’s not looking good for Immortal in a 1 v all. Imo

I used to think it was Spinosaurus>Indominus>Giganotosaurus> T Rex, but what Minya-fda says here seems pretty irrefutable at least for Indominus. Indomimus killing a pack of long necks while T Rex who can at least put up a fight against Giga gets thwarted by one long neck. Spino had the best showing against a T. rex but that T. rex is apparently weaker than the big 3 T. Rex (Rexy, Buck, Ember) that Minya-fda talks about.

Thoughts? What are your placements of the 4 from weakest to strongest?

Wesker had more fun tbh
