Kiria didn't get hit once by Erza in their first encounter and she was fodderize later on, two Erza clearly held back and the battle was used for jokes, three bind snake only works on offguard opponents and four Erza already proven suceptible to hax like Macro countless times b4 hand so no bind snake is not better than macro. It is actually pretty garbage bcs it needs set up while Macro doesn't.
Finally, Jellal blocked an attack meant for a half dead Wendy. Acno only uses force necessary enough to kill his opponents so he blocked a Wendy killer attack. Oh and Wendy actually tanked Acno hits from an enhanced Acno later on along with Rogue and several other characters. So not impressive in the slightest. He has a shield that can block a slightly above Base Wendy level attack
I like how macro was brought in when no one was even talking about it either.
Now let bring back consistent feats. Beat up Gears who straight scales to fodder. One got beat by Base Gray (who went through two battles beforehand) and Juvia (fodder), and the other two got beat up by legit fodder. Yeah, the fact that he needed GC to win and was beat up prior by guy who is legit fodder is surprisingly poor showing. Then we move back to Neinheart in which he was too slow to fully react to Neinheart's fodder attack and got KOed from it. An enhanced Neinheart failed to KO Lucy and Happy with a far stronger attack.
Let's move back to current now in which we use feats from a toying around Erza. Toying around Erza is Kiria level, how do we know this bcs every single time Erza toys around she legit gets beat up by people she could fodderize. Kagura, Minerva, Ikagura, Kiria, and so on and so forth. The only thing that matter is when Erza takes a fight seriously which is usually in R2 of a fight and Laxus did that which is why she was forced to used her best stuff in R1 lol.
Imagine a decade worth of feats and all it amounts to is having a joke battle with Erza, and blocking an attack from Jobberlogia. Same jobberlogia who couldn't even kill a Natsu who just came out of a fight with Zeref in which he lost the use of one arm and used most of his magic up.
You guys just summed up for me why Jellal is the most unimpressive "high" tier character in FT. Instead of objectively looking at his mediocre feats, we hear about is made up fan portrayal which has amounted to nothing in the past decade.
I bring up actual feats and all you guys do is shout fan portrayal or he blocked Jobberlogia like that is supposed to be impressive. Oh and the good ol' dismissiveness of anti feats to the point Jello fans try to say he got knocked out by anchor instead of admitting he got knocked out by Neinheart. Then we have Jellal fans who think he is impressive for oneshotting a S12, but that same S12 was oneshotted while in enhanced by Basic Natsu punch. Basic FD >= a charged up GC. The man is pathetic in feats and is only held up on a pedestal from fan made portrayal and straight up wank. Jellal bias is real. Majority of this thread shows that.
