If she could take Down Dr. Doom and Thanos, she will OWN poor Captain America.

Pretty certain those are massive SMvFL incidents

Not really, I mean that's pretty much all her feats, hitting the big guys.

They depended heavily on off-camera wins and PIS. Not really applicable for Rumbles.

It's Squirrell Girl. Does she HAVE any other kind of showings?

The thing with Squirrel Girl, as I think we all know, is that she was created as a parody of us. I don't mean Rumbles specifically but the whole idea of fights between fictional characters, especially cosmic level characters. Almost by definition, her feats are SMvFL because she's basically a joke character created by someone who doesn't get and/ or doesn't like the idea of debating such fights.

Personally, I take any thread with her in it as basically a joke thread and her feats as SMvFL. For instance, her win over Doctor Doom requires an absurd vulnerability to his armor that clearly does not exist in any other story- okay, except that Luke Cage story that was almost as absurd. Then, most of her feats are off-stage.

In the thread, so far, however, Sharp has pointed out that she may have some real feats that do not require off-stage assumptions about what happened or P.I.S. But, since I don't know what those feats are, it's hard to have an opinion, other than that she clearly wins if this is a joke thread where her very SMvFL/ P.I.S. nature is valid.

Here’s part of the fight with Wolvie. Bear in mind they’re just sparring.

And here’s the Deadpool one. He’s not really fighting back.

I could not read the dialogue at normal size, even with a magnifying glass. Increasing their size, the images were too blurred to read, even with the magnifying glass. So, all I can guess is that she was striking so fast they could not defend or get in any offense. Considering Wolverine's adamantium and healing, she also had to be striking very hard.

Again, she's a joke character. But, assuming these are reasonably typical on-panel showings, they are two impressive displays of speed and striking power.

Mind you, I see no evidence that Wolverine was hurt, just momentarily overwhelmed.

Cap's shield would help him. But not sure how much against someone who Wolverine can't get any offense against and Deadpool can't even manage to draw his sword before she hits him numerous times.

The Deadpool fight is Cable and Deadpool 30. The Wolverine fight is New Avengers 15, the 2010 run.

And here’s the Deadpool one. He’s not really fighting back.

He's unable to. He's just getting his ass kicked too quick. It's not dissimilar to a beatdown Peter administered to Wade before, with Wade unable to do much but comment. Before Doreen showed up, he was using guns, swords, and grenades on her teammates, so it isn't like he was going easy on her.

Now, the asterisk I forgot here in the years since I read the issue is he had blown a chunk out of himself with a concussion grenade before this. So he wasn't at top capacity. But it feels notable that the concussion grenade didn't knock him out and Doreen did.

In the Wolverine fight, it is a sparring match, but Logan did better against friggin IRON FIST than he did against her a few pages before that. He wasn't exactly coming at this like a chump.

She also casually yeets people pretty significant distances. She is a legit super human. Peak humans would need more than a shield to take her on, is all I'm saying.
