2- By Statements?

stops at wonder

Stops at 2 or 3. Gets stomped at 5 and above.

Gets pummeled by Hulk

Stops as 2, 3, or definitely 5.

Possibly stops at 2 hard stops at 5.

@crimson_comet: Out of order but DCEU Zod rather stops him

I don't think Deadpool Juggernaut is tanking nukes without harm guys. Unless you all forgot he was defeated by shoving an electric cord in his ass (Ugh... I hate Deadpool). 1v1 Homelander is too much for him. He has flight, heat vision, and speed fast enough to make A-Train look like a snail.

He should stop at Hulk

@rosalinagalaxy3: the order is supposed to be gauged on who would give Homelander trouble, rather than being based which round can beat the other.

Which rounds do you think are out of order?

@mee09: Any reason why he stops at Hulk?

Homelander based on statements can't be taken down by the Tsar Bomba (50 Megatons)

To assume Hulk can drop him, would have to assume Hulk can deal consistent or greater damage than this.

Feat wise, HL has little to talk about, but statement wise is another story. Both of which have consideration options.

@crimson_comet: DCEU guys are too high, MCU Hulk is above DCEU guys ( or this is that soyboy from Endgame ), CW Steel, CW Kara are leagues above them, Krypton Doomsday too high etc., DCEU Enchantress is only goddess with prep time, MCU Cap Marvel isn't that powerful. About Apocalypse i agree

@doctordamn: zod and WW lower than hulk?? LMAO

Stops at hulk

R1: stops at Hulk

R2: could stop at Hulk and Zod, not getting past Doomsday

Probably stops at Hulk

Weird rules.

R1: Stops at Hulk.

R2: solos the entire gauntlet and their verses at once with 0 difficulty.

He is omnipotent.

Around 5 sounds right

why are DCEU characters too high? Only non DC characters below them that are debatable is Hulk. Hulk finds his spot lower due to less diversity, and less options to fight Homelander.

WW's diversity and options to counter Homelander's-beloved-heat vision is what directly puts her above Hulk. Stats were not the key factor; they can also be debated.

Superman and DD for sure have more diversity over Hulk. No debate there.

CW Steel lacks consistent enough feats. He has 3 good feats to talk about, and besides that hes just a massively consistent bullet timer.

CW Supergirl is below above rounds because those rounds go into multiple fighters. Which is greater diversity and team-up options. Has nothing to do with her power level: a high-end SG is crazy!

Captain Marvel should be high-up. She is all around capable with diversity, she also is teamed up with Krypton Doomsday. This DD has insane durability and adaption. Their combo of diversity and capacity should be lots here.

Also, some matches have multiple characters, that is due to me not wanting to put several same universe fighters in the same round.

I appreciate your thinking towards who should be shifted. But I wanted to explain a bit of my thinking of how I chose the characters for each tier

With statements being fully applied for 2. This should work lol

However, this might just mean he has the potential to do anything. But doesn't mean he has access to that potential: yet.

@doctordamn: I placed Zod and WW above Hulk due to primarily diversity.

You can argue stats all day, but Zod and WW have better tools to fight someone like Homelander.

WW is able to counter HL's heat vision. Her fighting skill and sword might also prove something, and her Lasso could potentially destroy HL due to his mental issues, so long as she asks the [unlikely] proper question(s). This proves she has better tools for a foe like HL, compared to Hulk. Stat advantage for either side can be argued, but diversity is something to also consider.

Zod has abilities relative to HL's. His flight also allows him to avoid BFR. This is lots of diversity compared to Hulk.

Of course stats matter. But so does diversity.

Accessing his full potential instantly is something he can do. Soloing fiction is something he can do.

@doctordamn: WW and Zod's stats compared to Hulk's can have arguments for both sides. Personally don't wanna get into that.

I actually did have IM and Worthy Cap on the list. The list originally went to R15, but I decided to cut it short, due to not liking that the 2 other rounds had some universe characters in them.

IW Ironman and Worthy Cap were supposed to be between R8-10 but due to them being same universe, and myself finding it debatable to where I should put them. I chose to cut them.

Same can be said for one of the very much later rounds being CWs Reign & Reverse Flash being cut (due to same universe seasons).

Didn't feel like coming up with an alternative partner for each. Figured 13 rounds was enough, and HL would likely stop somewhere else anyways.

Lo and behold, the Hulk-Zod range is where most claim HL to finalize.

The legendairy milk amp is real.

Stops at Aquaman in R1; stops at Hulk in R2

Stops at Hulk in either scenario.

How is Hulk beating an omnipotent

He clears easily.

Even in terms of statements/writer's intent?

Hulk's writer intent doesn't even make him pant lvl :P

@doctordamn: i don't intend to engage in this argument, but the general consensus is that zod and WW are above hulk.

Definitely stops at Doomsday 9

Stops at 1

9 or 10. Could stop at hulk tho. This is very out of order

@crimson_comet: I actually think the only reason he beats Maeve and angel dust is BFR otherwise I think they can put him down cap can't do much

So homie is stopped at 2

After the s3 finale, arguably Maeve and Angel Dust (easily Maeve's rival) can take him down.

But giving him benefit of doubt and AD's questionable durability vs lasers,

I'd say he can reach R3 where Aquaman stabs his heart out.

If he somehow passes it, he has a better chance against the armored duo (who can also win by BP slashing his throat).

R5 is literally the Hulk who turns him into a red blue and white paste

He could stop at 1, Maeve and Angel Dust at the same time might overwhelm him. His best method of beating them is BFRing one of the duo via flight then focusing on who’s left. However that’s not a tactic he employs, he’s only used flight in a fight once and that was to escape.

feats, with diablolical feats : stops at 5

statements: stops at 5

Stops at 1, he is pathetic really.

Stops at 1 because of Captain America.

Hard stop at 5
