  • Lung vs Empire Eighty-Eight in Cenotaph 3.4 & 3.5. He goes in knowing it's a trap, and still manages to walk away.
  • Taylor having two separate conversations with Cherish and Burnscar and successfully manipulating the latter into eliminating Cherish for her. Taylor contends with a Master that was the reason why the PRT is hesitant on sending Legend because of the possibility that Cherish could manipulate the Triumvirate (which with how Cherish is capable of making Lung restrain himself from killing Crawler/injured the latter so that he won't heal) there is enough reason that the PRT's paranoia is justified.
    • This is followed with Taylor leveraging Burnscar's emotional connection to a member of Faultline's crew, to send her off Brockton Bay and to a team (hired by Taylor to to pick up people and evacuate them safely) that is currently in the middle of ocean. Taylor removes two of the eight current members of the Slaughterhouse Nine out of the board.
  • Weld's attempt to rescue Panacea. Yes, he loses to Siberian, but he tears apart everything Bonesaw throws at him first.
  • Taylor's response to Jack's offer to join the Nine atop the hospital roof in Wake 8.1: "How often does that speech of yours actually work?" Immediately afterwards, she jumps off the roof on a preset web zipline and pulls Amy, Madison and Weld with her.
    • To give this more perspective, she said no to a man whose power is literally to manipulate other people with powers, who had just made an entire speech to her allowing his power ample time to twist her thoughts to his whim
  • Taylor, after separating from Amy, Madison and Weld, having to fend off 𝙛𝙞𝙫𝙚 of the Slaughterhouse Nine with Siberian, Shatterbird and Mannequin in immediate pursuit and Jack and Bonesaw following in a 𝘭𝘦𝘪𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘺 manner.
    • Putting things into perspective, Taylor has 𝙖) Siberian destroying buildings in her direction as the Siberian can't get a sense of her exact location due to fog of swarm 𝙗) has to avoid general vicinity of glass as it pings Shatterbird and 𝙘) has to prevent Mannequin reforming his separate individual body parts to impede his pursuit by tying his leg or arm in lamp posts and other building materials. All the while making the three members of the Slaughterhouse Nine focus on 𝙝𝙚𝙧 so that the three wouldn't find any trace of Amy, Madison & Weld.
    • After being stabbed by Mannequin and escaping, Taylor has her insects stitch the wound 𝐚𝐬 𝐬𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠.
