Talk:Alucard (Hellsing) VS Dio Brando/@comment-28862119-20180329231315

Just to head off any criticism resulting from the Jotaro vs. Kenshiro Death Battle:

Strength: The strength rating that they gave to Star Platinum was flawed for two reasons. The first and most obvious is that they took each tooth as the product of a single blow, which isn't correct. The second is that the durability rating they used for diamond was flawed. This is because they used what is referred to as the 'Bulk Modulus,' which measures the force required to compress something. Diamonds fracture toughness, as stated above, is much, much lower, and given the way the feat is presented, is what we should actually be looking at.

Speed: Personally, I disagree with the assessment that Star Platinum or the world can be considered light-speed, simply based on what we have seen them do. Regardless of that however, a speed advantage wouldn't hand DIO the win, based on the nature of the two characters, and Alucards basic invulnerability in the face of basic physical and non-holy spiritual damage.

Feel free to disagree, but I stand by my outcome.
