But the fact that the suit is able to take out the attacked before it fails I think is actually cooler than if it just stops working. The suit went down but it took down the attackers with it, while leaving T'Challa relatively unscathed. To me that wasn't all that bad a showing.
What you quoted from me IS playing by the rules, ie there is a threshold, I literally just laid how how easily this was attained by Coogler in the movie. The suit Exploding IS stupid. Because when Coates has it explode th suit was essentially useless at that point and could not absorb anymore. Coogler has the suit explode the energy and T'Challa is essentially unscathed but he is disoriented and felt the strike, but the habit itself is still intact. That is more playing by the rules then what Coates did.
Abd yeah it was a bad showing considering what we have seen the habit tank: hits from hulk, hits from heralds of Galactus, Ironman, super skrulls, Hits from iron fist hits from Phoenix powered namor, hits from Black dwarf (off panel) etc etc.
Yet Coates has it get destroyed by... 3 guys with laser guns?? Are you kidding me that's the limit?? Yeah I can bullisht
