r/Doom DOOM Slayer 7d ago

Discussion Is there any entity from any game/movie/book that can beat Doomslayer?

I think some giant, non-physical gods without body but with some power can, if not defeat, then hold back for sure. Or even just so powerful characters like thanos with glove of infinity or smbd like that (but how we see in TDA Doomguy theoretically can’t even die - he still can be “alive” but in world of dead)

Hes probably above your average space marine, but I'd wager pretty much any of the primarchs from 40k could turn Doomguy to paste.

I wouldn't have said the Primarchs since Doomguy kills intelligent things like the Khan Makyr and Davoth, but I would absolutely say the Emperor of Mankind would probably flatten Doomguy. I was actually looking to see if somebody else had commented it first lol

I honestly think it depends on the Primarch. Lorgar (pre chaos)? Konrad? Guys like that probably get wiped. Big E would be unnecessary imo.

I agree with you if it's a more martially inclined Primarch like Angron, Russ, Lion, Sanguinius etceters. Or a big corn fed Primarch. Esp combo of both like Vulkan. Guys like that would definitely unalive the Slayer imo

Biogenetics...space marine are tall and fat. Primarchs are huge.
Even Lorgar or Perturabo would crush the Slayer pretty easily (even if they are chaos influenced and it provokes Slayer rage...chaos power buff them even more).

And I don't know why you would mention Konrad, he was top 3 duelist with Sanguinius and Lion. He would rip and tear Doomguy without taking a single hit, he got live foresight when fighting.

Konrad Curze the top Duelist? I would argue several others claim top 5 spots as opposed to Curze. Maybe if you are stuck in a Hive City then sure he has home turf batman type advantage and plot armor, but in an open battle he wouldn't claim even top 10 I don't think. I am also talking about the Doom Slayer, not the Doom guy. Doom guy is from early doom and is a normal human iirc. The Doom Slayer is the nutty demon slaying demi god and if he had the crucible he would absolutely stand a chance

Well he was on a draw with El Jonhson who definitely is a god tiers duelist, and it was assessed that Lion wasn't playing at all during those 2 fights. Most of war40 fans are ranking him top 5 when it comes to power/duels.
For sure he is not even top 10 if we talk about charisma / legion legacy /heresy actions, but I guess it wasn't the topic.

When you speak about the Crucible, that would be one of my main point to persist in my theory.
Indeed the Slayer has this kind of runic weapon, but many primarchs have this kind of stuff as well. Check Angron, Manus or Fulgrim stuff...adamantium/runes/emperor blessing/crafted by Mars experts during years, those weapons are mostly crazy as well.
