| Topic | King of Fighters 2020 (NOT MERCS) R1D27: Popeye vs Illryia (High) |
| MariaTaylor 07/28/20 1:08:35 AM #12: | I think Popeye has some weaknesses, like the fact that his big attacks always seem to require a lot of wind up and exaggerated motions. Not everyone is going to stand there like Bluto and take it. Though I don't think this prevents him from grabbing someone quickly when the situation calls for it. It's true that he might or might not be willing to fight her, but, this is a contest where the characters are compelled to fight each other -- so I typically find that kind of reasoning shaky at BEST and it doesn't really seem airtight in this case either. The big thing for me is not even the difference in power, but the difference in durability. Popeye can comfortably soak ANY attack she is capable of launching. If there was a nuclear launch site on the battlefield and she gained access to it, and pelted him with nukes, he would probably just punch then into the sun or weather the explosions without taking any damage. My logic is similar to Drak's way of thinking above. Literally what the fuck is she going to do other than rewind time and keep repeatedly losing? POPEYE, comfortably --- all the rest weren't so unfortunate https://imgur.com/yv2eC4n ... Copied to Clipboard! |
