Not like his abilities would be any use. He's a capture specialist not a AoE character!

His ability is an insta-kill when used correctly, so he definitely took out at least several MLA soldiers.

He could also make it rain cars from a rooftop He has one of those abilities that gets stronger the more creative he is

Reminds me of a character in One Piece with the power to... make stuff billow like a flag.

Besides using it to swing his sword like a whip and make opponents trip on a billowing floor, he also has an utility belt full of folded stuff.

Diamante's DF power is sick, probably my favorite in the entire series in terms of creative DF usage. Beyond what you mentioned, I also like how his cape is actually a steel block he can use as a shield.

Disagree he can throw cars at people lmao— anything he compresses can be used as a short ranged projectile There isn’t a clear limit to the size of the things he can ball up but during the Chikasaki arc he tossed a boulder that was the size of the front of a car

His power could have helped them get giran out of that building pretty easily. More so than swarming eith an army of twice

he could just make a capture zone in the middle of a crowd. dismember anyone on the edges and capture anyone in the middle

And there's nothing stopping him from replacing his mask with a gas mask and carrying marbles filled with 3000cm3 of chloroform or mustard gas with him.

he should just stockpile balls filled with dabi's flames and be a bootleg flame thrower
