I know Magnus is sorta a meme character around here, but he does have legit feats!
Arena.
1: Original "Berserker" body Alita
2: "Tuned" body Alita
Bonus: Toughest Alita verse character Magnus could defeat in general?

Welcome back to Sir Cthulhu Attenborough's "Planet CBR", and it seems to be a lively day in the world of predators.
Already, we see the mighty Arbitus Twoamus as it begin its daily hunt, in earnest. One of the few species of Anthropomorphic Eateries capable of using complex tools; it is perhaps one of the most clever. Though, what's this ? ... How very curious.
It would seem the shrewd hunter is attempting to lure in one of the comic book biomes most dangerous carnivores:
Pendaran Rex, which is known not simply for its intelligence; but for its ability to simply decimate any creature who happens to wander within its territory. Leaving little behind but bits of blood, and the remnants of their out-of-context feats.
I for one, am curious to see how the Arbitus manages ... though I should think the crafty creature will be in for the fight of its life either way.Last edited by Cthulhu_of_R'lyeh; 10-18-2019 at 06:53 PM. Reason: I spelled "very", "vey".
Yeah, but if you... man, we're getting into weird analogy territory, like if you disintegrated Superman's arms he wouldn't be able to go "fool! Little did you know that my arms and I are one and can be remade from me!" and will his arms back into being from pure nothingness. - Pendaran

Dude, that’s awesome.
Why are we here?
"Superboy Prime (the yelling guy if he needs clarification)..." - Postmania
"...dropping an orca whale made of fire on your enemies is a pretty strong opening move." - Nik
"Why throw punches when you can be making everyone around you sterile mutant corpses?" - Pendaran, regarding Dr. Fate

So both will be fighting through their proxies, eh? Seems more like a gladiatorial match.

I demand an ongoing continuation of "Planet CBR" as told by Cthulhu Attenborough in ALL the threads. Observational comedy on the state of Rumbles or else!

I don't "fight" Pendaran Rex. I circle him from a distance probing for weaknesses as I develop my master plan. One day, someday soon... The Arbiter Redemption Arc will play out. Originally Posted by Desmark

Besides, this thread has an anime/manga character in it. Pen CAN'T comment on it. He has like an allergic aversion to the stuff. ;P

What's this, dear reader ? It seems I have been spotted, by Arbitus Twoamus. Originally Posted by The Arbiter

What will it be I wonder ?

This thread really WAS intended as a legit non-meme fight but I am pleasantly surprised at the direction it's going. :P

Is this manga or movie Alita?
How fast is Magnus?

For a moment I thought you meant Will Magnus. I don't think he's ever been used in Rumbles. Originally Posted by The Arbiter

If he's only CBPH he's getting blitzed something fierce by pretty much any version of manga Alita. Originally Posted by The Arbiter

Really? I know certain Alita bodies are massively hypersonic, but I can't remember much for Berserker or Tuned off hand. Originally Posted by Nik Hasta

Had a building collapse on him and seemed scratched up but mostly fine. A robot bent a lead pipe over his head and he was ok.

Berserker body was dodging Makaku's drill whip fingers which were clocked as above mach and were invisible to human perception. See Alita also effortlessly dodging through a room full of cyborg bounty hunters and literally kicking them all out of the door.
Tuned, I'll need to check the feats but I think tuned was roughly equal to Berserker in several stats.
If Magnus can hit her, she'll have problems but I'm not seeing her get hit if he's just CBPH.
And, oscillation strikes are a bit ridiculous.
