pretty much just handwaved it to just be some usual salt comparing it to thor vs vegeta and kept it movin didn't really adress the main issues

Except nobody was under the belief Vegeta even had a chance against Thor, let alone thought he should stomp like Omnidock
 
vsb uses that too, its just common terminology in the hobby atp

the issue isnt the term it’s how people apply it which is usually nonsensical in both directions (cherry picking low end speeds for jojo characters etc)

if anything an anti-feat should apply to things with no consideration to the authors. Like Superman destroying a tree in a fight. A feat literally means something notably impressive. The Viltrum feat was a feat. It was supposed to be an impressive authorial statement of Viltrumites' powers and limits
 
Anyways, for Chiefslayer, Doomslayer fires a single ballista shot and it flash vaporizes chief.


The end.

Seriously though the biggest issue with Chiefslayer is that Doomslayer's whole modus operandi is oppresively preventing his opposition from even landing an attack edgewise through chain combos. This won't be "Oh DS fires a super shotty and downs Chief's shields and Chief runs and hides." Doomslayer will take out his shields, then switch to another weapon probably a ballista or precision shot, and do this on repeat. Chief won't be able to hide as Doomslayer will just keep pursuing him. The only way to make the fight animation happen is have Chief somehow actually survive any of Doomslayer's weapons which already seems unrealistic, and possibly gimp DS' whole fighting style in the animation just to justify why Chief isn't being pasted by SSG-->Ballista-->Precision Rifle combo. The animation will be for the worse just to only allow a reasonable level of suspension of disbelief.

So it sounds like they said "we get people disagree and we understand the reasoning why but we still think we had a valid interpretation"

Which i guess is fair since there isn't an objective stance on vs scaling so once you choose a method you may as well stick with it, and them at least acknowledging that it's super easy to have it go the other way in different interpretations is better than most vstubers would give their audience.

Still think they're wrong tho

with you on that
 
I still want DLucard but the biggest issue is D only has two pieces of visual media with a third in development hell and all of his feats that make him so infamous in versus debating is behind a 25+ long novel series. He is a hax machine and is the prototypical overpowered LN character, but thats why I want him in Death Battle against Castlevania Alucard.
