Three Ways to defeat the Superpower

The rules are simple. One troper must type down a superpower, while the next troper must come up with 3 unique methods to defeat it, whether it's through exploiting it's Achilles' Heel (such as a Logical Weakness or a Fatal Flaw of power's user) or an Outside-the-Box Tactic. For example, if one selects Nigh-Invulnerability, the next troper must find 3 different ways to get around it, such as an Armor-Piercing Attack, magically removing it, or using a weapon or attack the invulnerability doesn’t extend too.

For my first pick:

Shock and Awe

1. Donning an armor with a material that insulates all of the electricity for you.

2. Burrowing under the Earth and attacking from below.

3. Battling in an area where all the electricity is misdirected by metals that conduct it.

All three of these conditions will make it extremely difficult for an electricity manipulator to attack you directly with their ability.

Let's see what you guys got, Heart Beat-Down!

[SA PTSD flashbacks] Also, was hoping the methods would be a little more unique in response to the ability, but those are certainly ways to beat them.

1. Put a up a reflector and wait it out, then attack.

2. Just dodge it, you have faced worse.

3. Constantly Teleport around so they can’t hit you, then, go for the stab.

Power: Constant Teleportation

Edited by JKBenbot on Dec 31st 2021 at 10:08:47 AM

Try out my new forum game! Man this formating is hard.

1) Analyze the pattern, namely where the teleporter tends to appear next and how long it takes for them to go from one area to the next, allowing you to predict their movements and strike accordingly.

2) Use future vision to see where the teleporter will appear, so you can set some traps ahead of time.

3) Lure the teleporter to a non-teleportation zone, where their power is negated.

Casting a Shadow

I asked Splashpointparabox if he could edit his post from earlier. Should that happen, you can edit your post to come up with 3 methods to counter the power he suggests.

1 Use light to dispell the shadow.

2 Use an anti-magic barrier

3 Call them out for dark magic, burn the witch style.

Playing with Fire

Edited by vjoi on Aug 7th 2022 at 2:36:37 AM

Cornelius, but do not waste in useless pity the few moments left in which to escape from the hands of the enemy.

1. Fight them with extreme cold
2. Manipulate the air
3. Turn them into some flammable so if they tried using their powers, they catch fire themselves.

Size manipulation.

"I just need one of you to come here to give your life to the sun god. It will be for the monkey city's glory."

1. Trap the Sizeshifter in an enclosed space where escape is impossible even if they shrink themselves (bonus points if you're a Space Master).
2. Use your strongest attacks on their weak points if they're a giant, because they're now a bigger target.
3. Take advantage of the Square-Cube Law, whether by freezing the air for a shrunken enemy, or making a giant enemy expend their energy to the point they're too tired to stay at that size.
