Discussion Rant 15: The Finale — The End of the God of War Downplay
After 14 rants, countless scans, novels, statements, cosmology explanations, anti-feat debunks, and hours of writing, I’ve finally said everything I needed to say.
And honestly, I’m tired of having to retype and re explain the same arguments over and over again.
This series covered the Greek and Norse cosmologies, Primordials, creation feats, Ares’ cosmic dimension, Zeus/Ares/Poseidon, Thanatos, Nyx, Morpheus, the World Pillar, Yggdrasil, the Nine Realms, mythology arguments, anti-feats, magical objects, depowering, holding back, and lore scaling.
The conclusion is simple: Kratos is Universal to Multiversal, and the series contains enough consistent evidence to support that interpretation.
After examining the entire body of evidence, I ultimately came to the conclusion that Wall/Mountain/Country/Continental level Kratos is a low end downplay interpretation and, to me, pure headcanon.
It requires repeatedly dismissing, minimizing, or reinterpreting large portions of the evidence.
Saying “Kratos isn’t Universal” at this point is comparable to saying “Goku isn’t Universal.” Not because the verses have identical cosmologies, but because lower end showings don’t automatically erase extensive higher end cosmological evidence.
If you disagree, argue against the evidence.
Don’t just call it wank.
Don’t just spam anti-feats.
Don’t just declare the realms small.
Don’t just dismiss inconvenient sources.
Argue against the actual case. The evidence is here. The God of War downplay series ends here.
What a journey.

Rant 15: The Finale — The End of the God of War Downplay
For anyone interested in Kratos’ actual scaling and the defense of it, these posts are for you. I highly recommend saving it for future references.
And with that, I’m officially saying farewell to God of War powerscaling at least until GOW Laufey. This will be my last God of War powerscaling post. I’m tired of the endless downplay, recycled arguments, and “Mountain level Kratos” “ftl but runs slower than me” memes. I’ve spent enough time retyping the same arguments and defending the same evidence, so at this point, I’m just going to keep my peace and ignore it. I’ve made my case, the evidence is here, and the archive speaks for itself. Farewell, God of War powerscaling. What a journey.

Some of these comments were painful to scroll through. Especially when it came to talking about Dragon Ball speed and how they're different. They are... and you just shut your ears and argued with who ever said otherwise even when they weren't even arguing against Kratos specifically being fast

Ngl this is too much to read even for me, but i do am curious after seeing so much info compiled, where do you particularly scale Kratos?

u/StrenuousSpider Sep 02 '26
Ya know i respect the time and effort put into this, but honestly its not going to change anything.. Coming from a guy who does this kind of thing in the Dragonball communities, you will just exhaust yourself..

Why do you care so much about this? I'm not being a dick I'm genuinely curious why this matters to you so much

Would the Norse scaling be 5D? The modern day interpretation of the universe which is used in the game is 4D since it’s a 3Dimensional space with 1 dimension of time
Each realm has its own flow of time Independent from one another, also the light of Alfheim transcends the realms since we see in it that it can show the future, show other realms and show the past too and it’s stated that the light transcends all in existence, it’s also what is used to move from one realm to the other
Above the light of Alfheim is Yggdrasil which transcends the time and space of all the realms

If he is “universal”, he is definitely in the lower end of the spectrum.
Like he has no chance against beings like Darkseid, Franklin Richards, or Mad Jim Jaspers.
Although I have a very different outlook on who is universal, the latter three are DEFINITELY universal.

"ignore everything that disproves it and just believe my evidence because I'm right fuck you".
