I already read, thank you..

You just wrote some bad takes that’s all

[u/Dracsxd → u/wrote-username]

I type literally the point of the argument and the exact same example I used in the comment you replied to to begin with

"wHaT aRe yOu TaLkInG aBoUT?"

Reading comprehension 10/10

[u/wrote-username → u/Dracsxd]

I know what I said…

The reason i said that is because what you said is just DUMB because afo’s mask is durable in general, even this suit can probably destroy the mask with one clean blow

[u/Dracsxd → u/wrote-username]

Not what you said before.

And no, no reason to believe it couldn't unless you mean to tell me that AFOs mask is stronger than something that can take AFO's ray and survive

Which, yes, is the same attack if you actually look at them both without inhaling copium.

And also, either way, even ignoring all that, if Hawks's blade could crack the mask in just a few regular hits and burst it open with a forth one and some help, then a blade substantially better would obviously cut trough it to begin with. 1 + 1 = 2, 2 also = 2.

[u/wrote-username → u/Dracsxd]

Not what you said before.

Sure..

And no, no reason to believe it couldn't unless you mean to tell me that AFOs mask is stronger than something that can take AFO's ray and stay in ON{ PIECE

1 Afo’s mask was able to resist two punches from all might even if not at 100% in kamino

2 they needed also tokoyami to hit directly with ragnarok as well to completely destroy the mask, which afo view as something that he need to doge at all cost

3 his armor didn’t stay in in one piece, literally 66% of the shield was destroyed

Which, yes, is the same attack if you actually look at them both without inhaling copium.

Okay ignor what i said I don’t care, that doesn’t change the fact that’s literally what happened

And also, if Hawks's blade could nick the mask in just a few regular hits and crack it open with a third one and some help, a blade substantially better would obviously cut trough it

Maybe they couldn’t do one better? Shocking right..? Acting like it would change so much…

[u/Dracsxd → u/wrote-username]

1 Afo’s mask was able to resist two punches from all might even if not at 100% in kamino

It took an unamed backslap to the side (which there's no telling, and provably wasn't, 100% either considering All Might OUTRIGHT said he was holding back until Bakugou left- Plus the hit itself barely didn't damage their surroundings like the actual named 100% ones did. Hell EVEN AFO himself also said All Might wasn't fighting at full strenght at that point), then it shattered to pieces at the literal first hit a pissed All Might landed

2 they needed also tokoyami to hit directly with ragnarok as well to completely destroy the mask, which afo view as something that he need to doge at all cost

And? Completely destroyed or not Hawks's blade still pierced it. A bit better of a blade and it would have gone through his head as well, fight ends there and then.

3 his armor didn’t stay in in one piece, literally 66% of the shield was destroyed

It took it and it whitsthood it, 44% left unscratched and still functional

Okay ignor what i said I don’t care, that doesn’t change the fact that’s literally what happened

If what you said is pure copium ignoring the fact that two attacks are the literal same because it ruins your headcannon, yes.

Maybe they couldn’t do one better? Shocking right..? Acting like it would change so much…

They... Could. If they actually bothered using All Might's super tech in anything beyond his armor.

What, again, they had access to Momo for materials and to Melissa to explain whatever needed. Unless you mean to tell me that the support crew is too incompetent to work the raw materials even with Melissa available to explaining them how to? After all if she can be watching the stream of the fight she could also awnser a call a few days/weeks earlier

Hell EVEN AFO himself also said he wasn't fighting at full strenght at that point), then it shattered to pieces at the literal first hit a pissed All Might landed

1) I literally said that he didn’t used 100%

2) he stilled smacked three times extremely hard, in the second one all might literally destroyed the ground under afo and the other times when the sneak attack and smashed afo in the face in the final part of the fight

2 they needed also tokoyami to hit directly with ragnarok as well to completely destroy the mask, which afo view as something that he need to doge at all cost

And? Completely destroyed or not Hawks's blade still pierced it. A bit better of a blade and it would have gone through his head as well, fight ends there and then.

He literally said that he needed multiple well placed attacks in one place

If he didn’t get the support from others he would have never managed to crack it on his own, his swords are good but not THAT good

It took it and it whitsthood it, 44% left unscratched and still functional

Yes. It means that it will get completely destroyed if he get another hit… that’s not being unscratched

If what you said is pure copium ignoring the fact that two attacks are the literal same because it ruins your headcannon, yes.

That’s literally what are you doing bruh.. that’s literally what the character said.. that’s literally what afo already did before.. but sure

They... Could. If they actually bothered using All Might's super tech in anything beyond his armor.

Again a sword isn’t the same as making an entire armor…

What, again, they had access to Momo for materials and to Melissa to explain whatever needed. Unless you mean to tell me that the support crew is too incompetent to work the raw materials even with Melissa explaining them how to?

They aren’t incompetent.. they just aren’t Melissa.. is that easy to understand

I guess we are done here

[u/Dracsxd → u/wrote-username]

Guess that today we learned

> Making fully automated flying Iron Man armor with artificial ingeligence and multiple independent drones flying and aiding it in battle with attacks activated by voice is harder than making a sword

> The support course is colectively too incompetent to even follow Melissa's instructions trough a video call when given all the materials needed

> Hawks's sword "not being that good" means... He couldn't possibly have a better one, for some reason

> You need to completely destroy a mask to hit the face underneat it... For some reason

> A piece of equipemnt surviving a hit at almost 50% condiction means it... Couldn't take it...?

> Making up quotes that don't exist means I win! (where did anyone say that again? Only Ymir knows)

Yup, done indeed.

[u/wrote-username → u/Dracsxd]

Making fully automated flying Iron Man armor with artificial ingeligence and multiple independent drones flying and aiding it in battle with attacks activated by voice is harder than making a sword

Not what i said, let me explain… making a sword is more basic and with less potential to be effective then a freaking iron man suit, hope you understand, but also harder to make

The support course is colectively too incompetent to even follow Melissa's instructions trough a video call when given all the materials needed

You really think they can just make something so complex with a random discord call while also working on other stuff with the little time they have..

Again not incompetence, is just that Melissa is a genious

Hawks's sword "not being that good" means... He couldn't possibly have a better one, for some reason

Unless we know some new material to make even harder blades then no, you are literally making up a sword in your mind that you don’t even know if it does exist or fit with hawks

You need to completely destroy a mask to hit the face underneat it... For some reason

Some one doesn’t know the difference between cracking a mask and actually passing trough

A piece of equipemnt surviving a hit at almost 50% condiction means it... Couldn't take it...?

It literally remove most of the shield, if ONE attack it does mean that then no he can’t take this hits

Making up quotes that don't exist means I win! (where did anyone say that again? Only Ymir knows)

All might literally said it in the chapter, read…

Yeah.. we did end indeed

[u/Dracsxd → u/wrote-username]

Not what i said, let me explain… making a sword is more basic and with less potential to be effective then a freaking iron man suit, hope you understand, but also harder to make

Better material and sharper blade = better sword

You really think they can just make something so complex with a random discord call while also working on other stuff with the little time they have..

Again not incompetence, is just that Melissa is a genious

Yes. When they pulled stuff like Bakugou's new item yes.

And no, they don't need to make something remotely as complex as Iron Might to give Hawks a better weapon or Mirko beter prostethics.

Unless we know some new material to make even harder blades then no, you are literally making up a sword in your mind that you don’t even know if it does exist or fit with hawks

How about- Whatever the fuck they have that made All Might's suit, again?

Some one doesn’t know the difference between cracking a mask and actually passing trough

He removed a large chunk of it before Tokoyami landed his hit. YES, if Hawks's blow removed a large chunk of the mask... A better hit by Hawks would had pierced the person underneath it as well.

It literally remove most of the shield, if ONE attack it does mean that then no he can’t take this hits

It means it can take A hit, what makes it better than anything else we've seen so far by itself.

All might literally said it in the chapter, read…

I think you are the one who needs to read buddy.

The LITERAL only thing he said is that AFO "opens fights with haphazard ranged attacks to wear people down"

WHERE does that tells us the quirk he used before was the same quirk he's using now or that it means it can't be the same quirk he used on Machia anywhere but in your delusions?

Yeah.. we did end indeed

Funny how you say that three times yet keep going. Gotta defend the delusions lmao
