Rules
Random encounter on neutral ground.
In character with standard equipment.
No BFR.
@kaijuking: Doesn't Sonic have some retarded durability feats. Like surviving reentry in the beginning of Sonic Unleashed? Or am I just imagining things?
@cryolancer47: which is meh. Yur only traveling at Mach 20 on re entry. Just like with Samurai Jack and 616 Scorpion its not impressive to a guy who punches apart giant nuke proof mechs.
Even CD Sonic, before the Death Egg was introduced, could nuke mountain tops with chains durable enough to tether a small planetoid with earthly gravity. As well as no sell a massive volcano being reignited around him.
If Sonic can’t spin dash through something, he’s pretty much useless. He has his limits, and Armstrong is way above them when it comes to durability. I don’t think even the wankiest of Sonic Wankers would say Sonic can cut through objects better then Raiden, or has the power behind the attacks that Raiden has, and yet Raiden couldn’t even tickle Armstrong.
This would basically be the first stage of the MGR fight, with Armstrong dropping the best monologue in fiction, and laughing off a character who does manage to get speedy attacks off that are meaningless, until Armstrong gets done playing around, and just pulverizes him.
He’s not one of those beltway pansies

Pretty much.
@tparks: Spacebattles.com calls out the Archie Sonic wank often. I just found a Reddit of Anti Feats for Archie Sonic. https://www.reddit.com/r/respectthreads/comments/k4dyu3/respect_sonic_the_hedgehog_archie_comics_presuper/ge8az1m/ Just to shut up the wankers lol.
@kaijuking: Lol. Nice.
The only good thing about Sonic wankers, is that I’ve never seen them win an argument after they get called out for the wank. Lol
I dunno why Archie's being brought up but Sonic solos the verse easily. Considering that modern/post-generations Sonic scales above his old super self means that the dude is simply operating on an entirely different tier.
Archie Sonic is highly inconsistent, he's struggled against characters that are much weaker than Armstrong
However consistently he's above sound speed so Armstrong would never be able to hit him
Armstrong and the Cyborgs are stated above Mach 2. By feats hitting hypersonic ranges with some feats. Also this is not Archie Sonic.
Even Classic Sonic literally one shots. No Amount of downplay changes that. Archie is irrelevant too, game operates an a much more consistent level in base anyway. Armstrong isn’t anything Sonic can’t handle at all. And that’s besides Sonic’s massive speed advantage.

Armstrong and the Cyborgs have never been stated to be mach 2
6:24 seconds in you can see Sidewinder missiles from the helicopter (around mach 2) whizzing past Raiden even though Raiden is running for his life as the bridge is collapsing
They have mach 2+ reaction easily but not movement speed or even 1/5th of that
False.
Raiden is stated by Sundowner that even moving and running at Mach 2 he wont make it. Thats travel speed stated.
Raiden is fast enough to jump from guided missile to missile. These missiles are stated to be AGM-65 Mavericks. These missiles are over Mach 1. Yet Raiden is easily leap frigging over them at great speed to cross100s of meters to the target.
Raiden jumps across Sidewinder Missiles which are Mach 2, and then shows the helicopter blades in slow motion in Blade Mode.
Raiden is fast enough to make eight slices in what seems two sword swipes.
In Blade Mode, the very drops of rain seem to stay at a near still as Raiden cuts up to 20 attacks.
Yeah so slow.
@slomobackslap: its stated and ignoring it is not a counter.
The missiles are incoming and Raiden is reacting and moving the oppossite direction. Better feat of reaction and movement speed.
Beint ignorant and ignoring the facts just makes you a shit debater or lowballler. No skin off my nose.
Literally does not matter if Raiden is Mach 2 in any way or not, these characters are still getting violently blitzed by classic era. Hell base Fleetway does it as well, which would be a way fairer fight btw.
@slomobackslap: You want to lowball Raiden speed when talking game Sonic? LOL
Not to mention all the bullet parry and after image feats Cyborgs do yet you try to pull a troll move lmao.
Try harder.

Try harder.
Everything is a low ball but then you have no high balls to counter act it lol
I'm not even arguing Sonic winning now because I don't play his games too often but if he's faster than sound we know Raiden isn't going to be able to keep up with him
"bullet parry" bullet parrying means absolute shit.....if a bullet is mach 2 and is coming from say 10 feet away, than Raiden would only have to swing his sword at mach 1/5th the speed to be able to block/parry the bullet.
"after image feats" that don't exist
Got it, glad we established that
You know what, not everyone knows this. Im actually impressed. I take back what I said.
The after images absolutely exist though. Cyborg Ninja and Raiden show this for Cyborgs many times.
All these feats been calc to Super Sonic to Hypersonic in some cases by people on this site and Spacebattles and other forums. I mean clearly your soooo much smarter than all the people who calc and come up with super sonic to hypersonic Raiden calcs consistently.

Clearly your the end all of knowledge here lmao. But if you wish to play ignorant or ignore that, again no skin off my nose.
@kaijuking: Literally nothing you've shown shows FTE speeds lmao
Look at the instance of Raiden punching Armstrong, he punches Armstrong for 11 seconds straight
Lets just ballpark and say he punches Armstrong 200x (and that's being generous) this would equate to 18 punches per second, if Raiden's punch covers 3 feet and then has to retract, that's 6 feet per punch, or 108 feet per second of distance...this is about 1/10th the speed of sound
No one is denying that Raiden can react to super/hypersonic projectiles either
That's nice that you showed a VsBattles calc but we know for a fact that Raiden's blade mode/zandatsu is a 10x increase
Whatever Raiden's base reaction speed is the blade mode would be 10x that according to official sources
@tegridyweed: Nice name btw. But if classic sonic wipes than Archie is overkill
