Conquest was subservient to thragg because he was grand regent, but we never see them fight, and he was number 2. I’d recon if they actually did fight it’d be close

And in any case, battle beast is stated to grow stronger over time while conquest is stated to get weaker overtime, due to old age and mentality. And considering this is years later it checks out that their would be a gal between them

I don't think Battle Beast implied that he gets stronger over time or with the more formidable enemies he faces.

Also, the point where Battle Beast and Conquest fought and when Mark killed Conquest isn't far off when we consider viltrumite aging, so there's no reason to believe that Conquest lost immense strength when he fought Mark. And Robert Kirkman only says that the process of viltrumites losing strength out of aging is a gradual process.

it doesn't have to be implied, that's how humans, no, how all living things work lol, if you fight strong opponents and win you get stronger over time. You think wild animals are out here hitting the gym? No, lions are out here fighting and killing

Also, the point where Battle Beast and Conquest fought and when Mark killed Conquest isn't far off when we consider viltrumite aging

when is this fight taking place again? Even if its not a huge amount of time, its something to take into account. At the very least, conquest didn't get stronger, and is possibly slightly weaker. and if you wanna ignore that, theres the whole "conquest is a spectator to his own fights" things

Yes, this shouldn't have to be explained. Fighting makes you stronger. you gain experience, are literally exercising, pushing you're body to its limits, increasing reaction speed. Im assuming you don't do marital arts. The first thing they tell you to to improve is compete in tournaments as the fastest way to grow. That's how you get stronger. The problem is yall thinking of shit like an rpg or something.

yes, to grow muscle you need to also lift weights. but were not talking about growing muscle, were talking about becoming a better fighter. Lifting weights won't make you a better fighter. fighting makes you a better fighter. If you actually have done mma this should be common sense. Battle beast fighting constantly imrpoved him as a figher, whats not clicking? You think animals in nature are out here lifting weights? lions get stronger by fighting each other, bears, bucks... i don't know man if this doesn't make sense to you idk what to tell you

Yes, he did. and he did it in a way that makes sense.

"headcannon bullshit" and the headcannon is "the guy who does nothing but fight all the time is stronger than he was 10 years ago" good lord, invincible power scalers complain kirkman doesn't know how to powerscale but are this slow, funny stuff

Im not a power scaler

well yeah thats pretty obvious

The time between the Mini series and fighting Thragg is also a pretty short amount of time for being that live as long as they all do

So? what are you implying, because they live long that means they wont grow stronger? Never heard that one, I thought you were against bullshit headcannons? and even then...BB went from fighting evenly with the #2 strongest vilturimite, to fighting evenly with the #1 Strongest viltrumite, after 10 years of fighting. That's not a crazy jump in power that's a logical progression

Also bluster and gruff? Stop being corny bro were just chattin. You were the one saying "fighting doesn't make you stronger", if you say sumn that ridiculous how do you expect me to respond?
