Strongest (full-fledged) metahuman that Leatherface can fight

[Alan2099]

He could probably beat Lou Martin. Anybody remember him from the 90s DC series Major Bummer?

A chainsaw can inflict terrible wounds, but it's otherwise a poor excuse for a weapon. Heavy and unbalanced, and in need of nearly constant maintenance just to keep it running and to keep the chain from coming off and wrapping itself around the user's wrists. Offhand, I can't think of any unarmed CBPH characters who Leatherface could beat in a normal rumble.

It also needs to be pressed into something to actually seriously cut it, though at least Leatherface has feats for sweeping the thing around and chopping through stuff (takes precedence no matter how silly).

Wrong movie franchise, but I suspect that anybody getting to page two in this discussion may find this amusing:

Might be a new thread but how would that Chainsaw Demon slayer dude from the anime do against our standard metahumans of the lower level> Or our peak humans?

Chainsaw Devil?

.....

He murders them?

.....

All of them?

.....

Simultaneously?

Edit: in fairness, I'm talking manga; have no idea how far the anime has progressed.

Chainsaw Man on Crunchyroll. I watched a few and didn't like it. It was too ridiculous for me.

Yeah. Chainsaw Man, inhabited by the Chainsaw Devil.

I haven't seen the anime, but based on the manga it goes as I noted above.

It's enough of a trope in horror movies about inbred or somehow deformed slasher villains (not even counting the supernatural weirdos like later Jason or Michael Myers) having silly strength. In the remake Leatherface had one of his arms cut off and he didn't just not bleed to death, he had enough juice to not just chase after the final girl and swing the saw at the car she was driving, but also kill the cops that went to his house days later. I saw this trope again just last year in a high profile horror movie, won't name it because this basically spoils the whole movie.

You guys are talking about a normal real world chainsaw tho the ones LF uses are not normal it cuts tro almost anything doesn't run out of gas doesn't get jamd up by blood and guts also LF is far from a normal guy depending on the version he can probably take any low end fighter with weak powes.
