Did Deadpool overcome the techno-organic virus with his willpower, or was it his healing factor that overcame it?

Healing factor. His will-power had nothing to do with it.

Well then. This is what Mr. Pie said in the Snake-Eyes vs. Deadpool thread.

Mr.Pie said:

"I said it doesn't take a genius. By no means have i implied that i am a genius...genius!
Right, so you say it's his healing factor? I disagree. The timing he says "nah" right after the techno organic virus broke away from his is too specific and not to mention, obvious.

Mr.Pie said:

"Deadpool was being taken over by techno organic virus and he stopped it just by his will alone. That' goes a long way then some cheap hypnotism done by snake. "

Mr.Pie said:

"You actually want me to bring out the scan and show it to you? It was stopped by his pure will alone. Hell, i confirmed it before i posted that as a legitimate feat. "

Mr.Pie said:

And neither do you have enough evidence to proof that it is his healing factor. And he said 'Nah' After it broke away simply means he used his willpower to simply prove a point.

"I can be whole again"......."Nah"

There does not appear to be anything that would indicate that it was his willpower at all. I deem it to be the healing factor.

I'm gonna rub this in Mr. Pie's face.

Who knows? Ther is no proof either way, but I do find it suspicious that way he is smiling after it's gone. I believe it was meant to be his willpower, But if I should look at this my way(my way is: What defines reality) I would say it is an combination. That: he in the first capture bids the techno-organic virus welcome(the healing factor stop fighting), in the second capture he fights it with an will to be normal-Deadpool(his healing factor fights it of) and in the third caption he won(TA-DAAAA).

Neither of this makes sense. In relevance to what's in bold, saying that it's his willpower that fights the virus is like Batman (who has no healing factor) fighting off HIV with his willpower. You can't fight HIV (or any virus for that matter) with willpower.

Well his healing factor is mentally driven somewhat, but he couldn't had done it with just his will, so it was his healing factor.

A little bit of both in my opinion.

That's actually what I meant. In the battle thread some people thought I meant that Deadpool's healing factor wasn't used at all and he just forced the virus out with pure will power. Now that's ridiculous.

It wasn't his willpower. You can't force a virus out with willpower. Willpower doesn't not give you immunity or resistance to viruses and infections. That's what the healing factor is for. Willpower isn't made to serve that purpose.

I'm saying that Deadpool used his willpower to concentrate on making his healing factor quickly remove the techno organic virus from his body.

Still incorrect. His healing factor did it alone. The healing factor itself worked harder to remove the virus. Willpower and healing factors don't go hand in hand. That's ridiculous.

Looks like his healing factor and his will power, just becuase of him saying "nah" I could be wrong though

He's saying 'nah, because he's confident in his healing factor. It doesn't make sense to fight a virus with willpower.

No he said 'Nah' because that showed that he used his will power to get rid of the virus.

Hmmm... I was somehow under the impression it was neither. For some reason I thought that he overcame it because it rejected him as a host (whether through his horrible cancer or disturbed mind). But if I was to pick from the two I'd say B) Healing Factor. Willpower implies control in my book... a feat I don't think DP can boast.

#33 Posted by warlock360 (24794 posts) - 4 years, 17 days ago - Show Bio

I'll have to disagree and say

A. Willpower

or

B. Healing Factor by WILL

because from what I've heard, deadpool has NO control over his healing factor, it just repulsivly regenerates. And the moment the virus infested his body it should of revolted it (if it could! Or if deadpool wanted it in this case of control by will!)

so seeing that he had the time to run a monologue, i doubt it was his reflexive Healing factor, more like Willpower.

He even said "Nah" and in that moment it shook off, you do the math. I'm going to have to say "Nah" to everyone who voted for healing factor :P

He said 'nah' after the virus went away. Not a sign of willpower. The man's confident in his healing factor. That's why he said that. Willpower and healing factors don't go together.

Yeah. Say 'nah' to the people that are right if it makes you feel better.

anywho, you posted the can of the lower stripe but how long has it been infecting him is my question, show us the whole scan, then we'll see if it's prompt or over a long time.

I don't have the whole scan. I got it from someone else who's saying the same thing you are. He wanted to believe his willpower played a part in it, (when healing, as a whole, is an involuntary process and cannot be control by willpower) when it didn't. Whether it's prompt or over a long period of time means nothing. Being infected by the virus for a long period of time would only make the healing factor work harder to get rid of it.

#39 Posted by warlock360 (24794 posts) - 4 years, 17 days ago - Show Bio

Now if it were his healing factor alone he wouldnt be able to get it out since it was able to work its way in meaning the healing factor wasnt strong enough :>

anyways im off ill debate this tomorrow (if this post didnt already settle it ;p)

I disagree with that part. His healing factor would have eventually gotten rid of the virus. I'm saying that he used his will to get rid of the virus QUICKLY. His HF would have just done it slowly without him using his willpower.

Just because it was able to work it's way doesn't mean that the healing factor wouldn't have stopped it.

Well, I would not normally give Deadpool any credit for willpower . . .however, the TO virus was in his system for a bit, and he did have time for the monologue, and the whole "nah!" timing, are all a little suspect. Plus consider, that his immune system has already fought off the the TO virus (when he needed it from cable to cure himself of the Facade Virus), but was still affecting him again.

I think it was like a Psychosomatic effect - not with the curing of the TO, but with the holding back of his healing factor (i.e. he had some control during this infection - governed by his subconscious).

When infected his healing factor should have wiped out the To almost instantly (faster than it could spread), but it did not - because Deadpool did not want it to (willpower holding it back) - he was feeling like he could fit in and part of him has always wanted that. Then he realized that it would completly destroy his individuality (which he wants more than to fit in) so he let go and his Healing Factor kick the crap out of the TO.
