'''Basic Trope''': A character who pulls far more than his own weight in combat.
* '''Straight''': [[TheHero Bob]] blasts through {{Mooks}} by the hundreds.
* '''Exaggerated''':
** Bob depopulates entire worlds on a regular basis.
** Bob is fighting against the whole world going against him, and doing a pretty good job at winning.
* '''Downplayed''':
** Bob is a skillful fighter, able to take on multiple opponents easily. But more than six and he's in trouble.
** Bob wasted hundreds of enemies, though he was mostly using ambushes and traps to get kills while using stealth and superior mobility to avoid retaliation.
* '''Justified''':
** Bob has a vast array of powers that make him ridiculously powerful compared to a normal human.
** He's just ''that'' good.
** He specializes in attacks that affect a huge area, maybe to the point of being a PersonOfMassDestruction, and most of his battles are in wide-open areas where the enemy can ZergRush.
** Bob is a trained warrior, while mooks are an unprepared bunch of peasants wielding [[{{BladeOnAStick}} blades on sticks.]]
* '''Inverted''':
** Bob and his allies are the ones getting blasted apart by a small number of EliteMooks.
** Alternatively, Bob picks a fight with a horde of mooks, [[RealityEnsues and gets steamrolled for his trouble]].
* '''Subverted''': The mooks had been ordered not to put up a fight.
* '''Double Subverted''':
** The mooks had been ordered not to put up a fight, but they did anyway.
** ...Until his superpowered side kicks in.
** Alternately, they were ordered not to put up a fight, but Bob still has no trouble fighting off the wave of ones that weren't.
* '''Parodied''': Everybody, including the bad guys, treats Bob as a OneManArmy, even though he really isn't and makes no secret of this.
* '''Zig Zagged''':
** Bob racks up massive amounts of kills, and then it was discovered he had help...but only on the last of the 1,000 battalions...which were ordered not to put up a fight...but did anyway...even though they had no weapons or training....
** Bob has MesACrowd as a superpower, and uses [[DoppelgangerAttack Doppelganger Attacks]] to take down a great number of the enemy. Technically, he fought them off by himself, but at the same time, he was not alone.
* '''Averted''': Bob's combat abilities are on par with the rest of the cast.
* '''Enforced''':
** "We need to show the audience how awesome our hero is, so let's have a scene of him taking on a few hundred mooks by himself".
** This is a video game.
* '''Lampshaded''': "Help! He's unstoppable!"
* '''Invoked''': "[[OneRiotOneRanger Normally I'd assign backup, but since it's you...]]"
* '''Exploited''': ???
* '''Defied''':
** Bob calls for backup rather than attempting to take on the enemy base by himself.
** [[BigBad Emperor Evulz]] orders some of his mooks to join Bob.
** [[BigBad Emperor Evulz]] sends only one mook after him.
** Bob is an ActualPacifist who doesn't want to fight the mooks.
* '''Discussed''': "Legends say the Mountain Warrior slew ten thousand foes in a single day".
* '''Conversed''': "Exactly ''how'' many kills have you racked up over the course of this game?"
* '''Deconstructed''':
** Everybody Bob knows lives in fear of him, and the government has prepared deadly countermeasures in case he ever switches sides.
** Alternatively, killing hundreds of people has devastating effects on Bob's psyche.
** When Bob gets somehow killed or dies, perhaps of old age, the government realizes how screwed it is because its RedshirtArmy has nowhere near similar fighting ability. EasilyConqueredWorld ensues.
** Bob may kill hordes of mooks with ease, but he's ultimately JustOneMan and can't be everywhere at once. The Enemy adopts a strategy of attacking on multiple fronts simultaneously, which Bob can't defend against.
* '''Reconstructed''':
** The government, due to incompetency, never uses said countermeasures, allowing Bob to wipe out armies anyway.
** All of his friends have been killed while trying to be this trope, so Awesome Bob goes into TranquilFury on all of his enemies and murders the lot of them.
** Bob breaks down for a while, but recovers and comes back even deadlier.
** Bob is a [[LonersAreFreaks loner]] who [[IWorkAlone works alone]] and doesn't care for or need others' concern. If people fear him, all the better, [[ThePrince as long as they don't hate him]].
** The allies build up strong defensive garrisons and advanced transportation so that they can HoldTheLine while Bob zooms from fight to fight.
** Alternatively, they send Bob out to take the fight to the enemy homeland. After all, the best defense is a good offense.
