I was wondering if anyone can help me locate a specific Trope. The Trope i'm trying to find is similar to the 'Paper scissors rock' trope but more used in film. Example: In the show Gravity falls, the character, Mcgucket is immune to the mind eraser ray, however the same ray was used to defeat Bill Cipher, a powerful god like demon. One item is able to beat someone, but not someone else.
I've just been calling it the paper scissors rock trope. However looking though the tropes list, the Paper scissors rock trope is used more in video games then films, so I'm just trying to find the film equivalent. Thank you
