@rpottage: Wow. you don't have to quote the entire post mate, it makes the page harder to browse for people using a cell.
Do me a favour; actually read what I said and watch the link. I explained exactly why it's wrong, and it has not to do with Clark. Had you watched the video you would have seen one of the planes flying as close to civilians as Neo was to the ground. And if you knew anything about satellites and rockets you'd know Rockets travel insanely close to satellites because they have no choice.
I did actually. and the video explains a specific phenomenon, nothing to do with the point you're trying to make. Flight effects aren't a single isolated phenomenon like the one explained there. It's not the only force in action there. What you're doing is taking a table-book system and just using normal reaction to try and explain it.
Planes flying as close to civilians...? did you even watch the video you posted yourself?
No, he can't. Watch the video and listen to how it works, or re-read my comments where I explain it.
Your comments explain nothing related to the topic. Anyway, unless you're going to tell me the cars started flying on their own, I don't see literally any point in your discussion.
No,that doesn't make it debatable. You can't say something debatable because Neo didn't have the chance to show off; if the fastest he travelled is far slower than clark's fastest, then that's a factor.
No, what makes it debatable is what he shows in close range outclasses clark's close range. Clark is just more quantifiable.
1) Yes, he is. Combat speed is useless when someone is fast enough for an initial blitz; and being able to dodge a bullet isn't helpful again a guy who will tackle you at superspeed.
Not really. Higher combat speed = easy side step for blitz, replacing 'blitz' with a 'blind rush leading to a swift counterattack'.
2) Most of his punches weren't that fast, and they're slower than Clark's initial attacks when he flies out of nowhere at someone.
Not at all. There is nothing saying clark could speedblitz a regular agent in the first place. Only people who he has fought against are those who have miserable combat speed. With exception of faora, and she was lolstomping him. Not that she shows anything extraordinary either.
3) I'm calling complete bullshit on this one. Go re-watch the final fight between Neo and Smith. The FIRST real hit completely staggered Neo. He was in the air and when he got hit he couldn't recover. Smith then smashed him into the ground and Neo lay there. Minutes later he struggled to move and got up. And when Smith attacked him he couldn't fight back getting only one punch in before being beat down again.
... He was perfectly fine after first real hit. What staggered him was the large one, and he got up right after smith rammed him on the ground.
Neo is a glass cannon; but his strength isn't even up to MoS.
He's about as much a glass canon as clark, considering he can exchange far faster hits and still keep going.
No, he doesn't. His punches aren't as fast as their speed fueled attacks and his hits aren't nearly as strong. And if he tried to stand there and punch Clark that leaves him wide open to a counter; and Clark has shown he's willing to take a punch while he's punching someone else.
Of course they aren't equal to clark's. They're faster.
It doesn't matter if he leaves himself open really. Clark's combat speed is too low to make any difference.
No, none of the qualifiers are actually right. You haven't demonstrated any of that. You've simply claimed it and tried your best to ignore everything that makes your view seem wrong.
They are actually. Clark has zero feats saying he could actually land a punch, on which most of your arguments are based. Neo has taken hits that caused block-wide shockwaves, fall far more destructive than clark's, exchanged hits far faster than what dazed clark, and still kept on fighting. Add in the skill gap, it's pure slaughter.
So it's your assertion now that Neo can dodging a moving heat vision attack even though he has no experience dodging beam attacks, no experience dodging attacks from such close range, and his method of dodging leaves his lower half exactly where it is and completely vulnerable with no indication of any ability to recover if someone sweeps down with an attack during his dodge? Cause that seems like fanboy bs and is unsubstantiated.
A beam attacks is as straight line as a bullet. No particular reason he won't be able to dodge it.
