Powers That Counter Other Powers

[90'sCartoonMan]

Typically people with force-fields are vulnerable to people who use light as a weapon or manipulate the air because the person using the force-field still needs to see and breathe.

Some of this depends on how powerful each user is. For example, could a person who controls gravity ground a flying person...or is the flying person immune to the gravity controller?

electric eat flying types
water beats fire
fire beats ice and grass
grass beats rock
sharp beats slick
etc

It's super effective.

The ultimate form of regeneration: adaptive regenerative healing factor can counter any and all attacks by regenerating and becoming invulnerable to said attack.

The only limit to this power is complete disintegration.

Doesn't really help against dimension dump, mind control, soul attacks, etc.

Krodin yo.
Dude adapted against being teleported, against telepathy, even against a freaking nuke.

Easily countered.

Anti-regeneration attacks.

Another (similar) possibility that doesn't come up, but would be interesting to see, would be corruption of the regeneration mechanism. Basically the same idea that causes your body to reject parts of its own body as foreign substances, and attack them. I forget what it's called.

A character who could do that to someone would destroy someone with a regenerative ability, adaptive or not, because their own body would fight itself, probably in a very painful manner.

I think Lina Inverse did something like that once.

LHW's VS Giga Drill Breaker.

Only problem is I don't whow if its a dead heat, or if one can cancel out the other under certain conditions.

You're referring to the disease known as Lupus in the real world.

Your counter that you've described is essentially Super Lupus.

[Postmania]

Wait, so its just a disease? I thought it was a general condition.

You mean Hokuto Shin Ken?

It's an auto-immune disease.

I think Lina Inverse did something like that once.

Lina had a spell that reversed troll healing factors so that the slightest bit of damage ended up causing their body to destroy themselves.

From Inu Yasha, Sesshoumaru's Bakusaiga just released massively destructive energy that spread at high speeds through the body from the slightest scratch, so that the only way to defend against it was to lop off whatever part was scratched immediately, then run away from it in case you still for tagged by the arcing energy (or the homocidal Sesshoumaru that was still within stab-range. The Meidou Zangetsuha sucking anything it cuts into a Hell that instantly kills anyone who isn't a full Youkai or had something like shikon shard unnaturally keeping them alive was a good counter for regen as well. Or slashing Youketsu, the source of a Youkai's power, rendering those portions instantly dead and unregenerable, if it doesn't kill you instantly.

And on that note, Tsukihime's Music Eyes of Death/Life Perception worked exceedingly well against regen.

[Postmania]

It's an auto-immune disease.

Ah, that was what I was thinking about, autoimmune diseases.

You mean Hokuto Shin Ken?

Probably worse. I'm talking full scale Hokuto Shinken + AIDS + Lupus + Chaos effects from WH40K.

[Masonicon]

Purely Mechanical Beings with Invisibility Cloak vs Aura Vision

[Melchior]

I like Araki's explanation for why King Crimson was a hard counter to the time-stoppers in Jojo's Bizarre Adventures. Epitaph/Emblem alerts King Crimson that a time stop is coming up, and then King Crimson simply deletes the second before and after the time stop, thus the time stop never happened. And then Diavolo and King Crimson can nail the time-stopper while the time-stopper wonders what just happened.

One of the more straightforward examples of how King Crimson works, actually.
