#Too much even

[ganondoodle]

reminder that my totk rants are me just rambling about my thoughts, ideas and complaints, im not trying to analyze anything, be smart, be right, debate or convince anyone who likes it that its bad just bc i think its bad or simply dont like the choices made, im literally just spilling out my brain so it doesnt keep haunting me

if you think something makes sense that i think doesnt i, and forgive me for being so blunt about it, do not care why you think it works, my opinion of this game will not change and i am okay with that

you are free to disagree with anything i say of course but i really dont care why, sorry

(sth i said only in the tags before but added now in this edit bc i think its important: its not bc i dont want to hear other peoples opinions and live in ignorance or something, but bc im tired and i PROMISE you i have seen 99.9% of those arguments already)

im not trying to be mean, aggressive or dismissive, but again, these rants are just me rambling with no intention of arguing with anyone, the only reason im still posting whenever i think of something thats bothering me (even if it might be dumb or be disproven in game bc i am not all-knowing and might be possibly misremembering something), and letting those posts be rebloggable/interactable is bc i have been told by quite a few people that they like reading them or that they feel validated in their own disappointment

thats it.

Good King Moogle Mog lays slain thanks to some very kind friends from Party Finder. (Whom I noticed were both from Zalera! Love my hometown heroes. <3)

The queue was abysmal today seeing as it's early on a weekday, so in case you happen to see this, thank you to the two friends who helped me unsync that! Y'all allowed me to get back on the road quicker! xD

Speaking of parties, Nanari has a certain Alliance Raid coming up. Mayhap some of you would be interested in joining for his foray into the Crystal Tower?

Also if anyone brings a G'raha alt I will personally give you the biggest hug.

I realise this could sound like I'm complaining about Fruit-Salad, so I want to ieterate that I'm not, but just asking if you're still taking questions/answers about Pokemon habits and the like?

I get a lot of them about species I dont focus on here, so I dont answer those often, and while I try to do a few now and then, its a job that takes so long and drains my energy levels highly. I try to keep up but the amount I get in vs the amount I can answer based on time is never enough.

I do answer the fruit salad ones more often because they bring me joy, as opposed to just being a job that I get stressed out over. One mainblog answer can take anywhere up to an hour to answer and is incredibly mentally draining, the salad junk however is a break, a chance to flex more creative and free muscles, have a little fun. After hours of working I like to indulge in them and try to have a mental break to get away from people pleasing hahaha

I will alwasy take questions but can't possible answer them all, its a huge job, one i'm not paid for and I have to spend my time drawing to try to pay bills. I do my best lol but theres only so many hours in the day.

I do not take this as a complain, so do not worry. Its a free blog with countless things to read and enjoy, I feel no guilt taking time for my own sanity.

Meliodas is such a monster in fights.

Physical prowess is stupidly off the charts. He can effortlessly blitz most with just his hands, just blinking them away. Destroys a prison meant to withstand 10 tyrant dragons - each who can level a town - while arm wrestling. Just embarrasses Dogedo who is lauded among his knighthood for strength, shattering his hand like he folded a piece of paper. Parries Drole  ( a giant with four arms who is considered a fighting god amongst his people ),  punching him at three different angles near simultaneously, and then slices his arms off with basically no resistance. In a single sequence he easily tore through miles of the dense rock maze created from Drole's magic, destroyed Gloxinia's cursed tree like it wasn't even there and then snapped Gloxinia's spine in half with a single punch, almost killing him on the spot. The top half of Fraudrin's body just straight up disintegrated in one blow after Meliodas bullies him lmao, and this was a guy who said he had the power to wipe out Liones. He blows away mountains like a house of cards with the force of his sword swings in 4kota. Split in mountain in half with a twig in the earlier half of the series. He 1v3s three top ranking demons while defending Elizabeth and puts them in their place while looking like he barely exerted any energy. Took on Mael by himself back in the day and made him back the fuck off.

Crazy strong magic strength. The man blows open 30,000 ft holes into the earth that obliterates surroundings into nothing, once by accident which deleted the entire kingdom of Danafor off the map and again when he sealed Gelda at Edinburgh. Also was trained by a master in the arts of magic, Chandler.

Power level is ridiculous. Ok, the combat classes we see are really just resting power levels that can and will fluctuate. They should be used as vague guidelines to indicate tiers of power rather than something immutable, and that bigger number means you can play in the same league as other huge numbers though they don't guarantee shit, they just grant the access pass. Now then. With Mel ?  His is constantly in flux. The thing just keeps growing, or rather returning to what it used to be before Merlin gipped him. It’s 60k when he fights Fraudrin and it becomes even greater when you factor in his demonic powers. It’s 142k when he first uses assault mode, and only continues to grow as he recovers his original strength. It’s at least on par with, if not easily greater than Mael, who already surpasses Ludoshiel at 201k in a vessel. Ludoshiel basically said he needed to team up with Sariel and Tarmiel before daring to pick a fight with Meliodas on his own. The goddess Elizabeth is Meliodas’ closest equivalent in power, and she was noted to be equal to / stronger than the four Archangels. In the end it was still nothing before the Demon King and Supreme Deity.

Can be scarily accurate. Senses Gilthunder's spear coming which was thrown from over 7 miles away, walks outside and catches it, throws it back, and simply destroys the fort Gilthunder was in instead of killing him outright, which would have been easy to do.

He's skilled with blades. He uses short swords nowadays but has used enormous broadswords before, which seem to be his preference of weapon. He’s said he likes heftiness in a weapon. While his sword techniques aren’t as fast as his little brother’s, Meliodas still has a move that cuts something 1000 times in an instant and uses a movement that looks like him sliding his blade an inch out of the sheath before putting it back and not moving from his spot at all, which then translates to Galand casually diced to ribbons a second later ( the same guy that instantly jumped miles out of merlin’s range before she could finish lifting her hand ). Destroys all the fake Zeldris’ by himself in a single move.

Durability is almost unfair. Can withstand light magic that disintegrates demons and is implied by Estarossa to be able to take attacks intended to destroy a demon at the molecular level to the point where they can’t regenerate. He just tanks nuke level attacks to the face, being barraged by Derieri’s 50+ Combo Star ( where each consecutive blow receives an additional 200,000 pounds of force compared to the previous one ), and can still fight after being punched through a mountain or being cooked by Monspeet with an attack that reduced previously a mountain to nothing. Survives a consistent assault from the Ten Commandments. Treats getting a limb severed like snapping back on a lego piece.

Insane speeds and reaction times. Dismembers Guila’s hand before she realizes it’s gone before proceeding to tear Ban in half. He can react to lightning and the movements of Ludoshiel, who has a grace that lets him move at the speed of light. He blocks a lot of the surprise attacks people throw at him, even when someone is invisible. Crossed several miles in about two or three seconds while basically ignoring any obstacle Gloxinia threw up in his way. Takes on Zeldris’ and Estarossa’s attack with no issues before swatting aside Cusack like a bug.

He's a cunning tactician. It's best to try and kill him quick before he works out your moves and kicks your ass six different ways. It’s shown numerous times that while he can get caught off guard initial in a fight, he’s incredibly adaptable and usually recovers pretty quick to retaliate, often to devastating effect.

Lifetimes of experience. Man’s old, so he’s got thousands of years of fighting experience. Accumulated knowledge like that is nothing to scoff at when it’s being used against you in a battle.

Generally blocks mind reading, even the heart reading abilities of the fairy clan. Though he's not immune to things like Drole's eye or Gowther's Invasion.

Full Counter, aka virtual immunity to magic attacks if he knows the nature of the attack. The opponent's attack blows up in their face with at minimum twice the power. It doesn’t matter if it is a projectile or something physical infused with magic like a weapon or fists. Depending on the magic tossed at him, Meliodas could probably kill you using a spoon or a stick honestly.

Counter Vanish deletes “magic” attacks full stop. It nullifies the magic portion and turns a fireball into a puff of smoke or can reduce a tidal wave to a kiddie puddle.

Revenge Counter is basically Original Demon’s Crisis  ( allows power to constantly increase while taking damage ). He accumulates damage over time to gather it into an exponentially stronger attack and one shot his enemy. Only difference is that his stored damage is reduced to 0 again after it’s used while Original Demon maintains it.

Can use other magic. Chandler is his teacher after all so he has a variety of techniques and a great understanding of magic. He just actually chooses not to use it because he prefers the Full Counter he’s got and he likes to physically beat up people instead of wailing on them from a distance. Can you believe this ?  Ignoring a whole branch of attacks for the most part because the guy literally said he prefers kicking ass while up close and personal.

Darkness has such utility and for what. Shields, weapons. He can just. Sprout wings of darkness and fly. He's hard enough to fight on the ground, much less adding in aerial maneuvering.

At least twice as strong at night because the biology of his species works that way.

He's a demon so he can do a number of other things, like possess a person, eat their soul, survive getting cut in half, has multiple hearts and won't die until they're all destroyed, etc.

Access to Hellblaze. A powerful, inextinguishable flame. Think Amaterasu but dialed up and none of the blindness drawbacks.

Can inflict curses and seal a person. Gelda was safely tucked away under a spell that no one but Merlin noticed. Zeldris was standing right above that hole Gelda was sealed in and had no idea she was down there. The man spent 3000 years researching curses in order to break the ones inflicted by the gods.

The more he leans into the demon side, the more cruel he can be. He has a tendency to play with his opponent, viewing them as entertainment. At a certain point his callousness grows and he likes seeing others suffer in despair. When he stops fucking around, he just brutalizes the other, often quickly killing them.

Assault mode. Take everything above and multiply it several fold. Sometimes he indiscriminately attacks.

Immortality via curse. Even if you kill him, he'll eventually come back. In that sense Meliodas is unable to lose a long term battle of attrition, seeing as he'll revive whereas the other most likely won't.

If you somehow add the Love, a completely broken commandment, and the fight's over before it began if you hate anything whatsoever. You’re infinitely stun locked, can’t pick up a weapon or even stand up, meaning you’re a sitting duck and its open season for Meliodas.
