Battlefield

From 6-10 could make a case for either however also has potential to clear.

Could stop at prime, definitely not making it past Ultron.

Morals off probably isn't getting past the Silver Surfer

Depends on the level of jobbing going on.

The Darkseid who disintegrated Kalibak and took down Superman with two punches can clear.

The Darkseid who struggles and loses against Superman alone stops at Superboy Prime.

Stops at 10.

Maybe he could clear based on Mangog's modern showings.

Bump, @chimeroid@au_141 thoughts?

i'd hate to say it, but he clears even if high diff

Stops at 2 depending on which annihulus, definitely stops at WBH, Thor can also give him a run for his money with mjolnir strikes and absorbing the omega beams with mjolnir, Surfer who shouldn't be ahead of world breaker could give him a run for his money too or outright stomp via producing Radion

Stops at 10 or clears.

Stops at 10.

Clears as long as it's Aaron'sMangog.

How are people saying Uxas beats World Breaker Hulk? I must be missing something

4

If he somehow gets by, hard stop at 8.

He could stop at 8 or 10. I can't see how he defeats Ultron. I mean it's Final Form Ultron ,right?

Darkseid could get past 9 but stops at 10.

If it’s Final Form Ultron then he stops at 8, if it’s not then he would stop at 10 after a good fight.

As xdark said 8

If not 10

9

The Gog eats him.

Hard stops at Surfer. Purely basing on feats.

Could stop at 7 , definitely at 8 , if it's FF Ultron.

I feel like people just miss WBH cause he's so low on the gauntlet. Stops at Hulk.

@mister_surreal: what feats does he have to beat world breaker hulk?

Maybe 7

From the Hulk and up he gets stomped.

@leonardsnart: Not sure.

Edit: He can slap around and one shot Superman via omega beams.

@kevd4wg: good order by the way

@mister_surreal: so he stops at 4 then?

He stops at 1.

Starts having trouble at 7 but he could clear imo.

Assuming Darkseid is at his best you have someone so durable the league best option is to BFR him, and with attack potency to shatter the God Planet indirectly with punch and is capable of straight up one shotting heralds. Apparently he can also drain godly energies from people now too.

If BFR is allowed then he should be able to deal a lot of these guys comfortably.

The biggest threats imo are the bots.

He defeated Brainiac once, surely he can manage against Ultron as well.

Probably stops at 9. Depending on which powers Amazo has

@mega6382: how does he beat world breaker hulk?

Thor should be above WBHulk and Prime above Amazo.

Darkseid Clears this, but with high difficulty mid-way through however.

I think standard Annihilus in his most recent form w/ the control rod is being overlooked. Him being rated that low on the gauntlet is also strange. It took almost everything from Thanos to beat him.

@spambot: you and me seem to be the only ones who have respect for annihilus here

@leonardsnart: ya, imo he might take a majority from Darkseid and he should be rated way above Surfer and a few others. He is a high range teambuster in his most recent form.

@leonardsnart: @spambot: Annihilus seems to be similar to Mantis given his power set and what I’ve read with him in it. Do you guys think that his fight with Darkseid would differ significantly? Or are you only referring to his hulled version?(Not here to argue just genuine question)

Final Form Ultron's is far more durable than many team busters. He has tanked all the attacks of all heroes from galaxies and earth. AOU has already defeated the heroes of Earth and somehow he has shown that kind of power to break CAP's shield and u have to be skyfather level like the Serpent to break his shield. Phalanx Ultron's tech is even better than Galactus and his tech could phase out the galaxy, out of the universe. Unless a composite version of Ultron heavily jobs, no way I am seeing Darkseid get past through Ultron. I am seeing some people heavily underestimate Ultron. Good for them LOL.

I honestly don't know much about dc Mantis or how his fight with Darkseid went. If we are using the more recent versions of Annihilus though(Annihilation and one of the more recent Starlin trilogies) he is pretty close to Thanos in power. He practically killed Gladiator in a few panels and Thanos was highly impressed with how easily he wrecked him.

@spambot: @au_141: Annihilus is no longer Hulked our iirc, and Ultron is composite under Final Form(Final Form not included)

Bump, interested to see if people saying he passes World breaker Hulk will post any reasons why

Clears

Clears

@leonardsnart: He has almost killed Anti Monitor when he had absorbed everything in Anti matter universe in one blast.

What's Hulk going to do against such power?

Also Annihhilus was stalemated by Jane Thor for a hour just recently while amped. He is not even scratching Darkseid.

Id say stops at ultron, but I could be wrong. I see ulton as having better durability than damage output and it may not be enough to put down DS.
