I'll just split these up into the power level debate and the actual advantages each have in tactics and combat options.
Power levels TLDR:King is usually way stronger even near noon, unless it's noon itself(assuming Mael even has The One), based on power scaling he should almost always win.
King's power level is enough to evenly fight the Sinner while at long range, and the Sinner should be at least 1.5x stronger than Chandler/Cusack are individually, so in other words his PL is at least 240'000, probably more. Graces should be 2.5x the power of a Commandment if all of them make up 50% of SD's power, and she is equal to DK. I'd guess a Commandment normally gives 15'000 at minimum, 25'000 at most(Based on commandment members being already strong to qualify for getting a commandment, a commandment should not give them 90% of their power) so a Grace probably gives 50'000 or more. If we assume the Goddess/Demon clans have usually equal base power levels, but Mael is stronger than normal, he probably has 40K base, similar to what Zeldris would have if a commandment gives him 20k. So 40K base means that at 6PM or 6am when Sunshine gives its 'normal' boost amount, his power level is 105'000. So, at any randomly selected time of day Mael more often than not is at a major disadvantage. But let's say being near noon in the range of 11:30AM to 12:30PM pushes the Grace to 2x the normal bonus. Then he's at 170'000. So overall even at his best Mael would usually be at a significant power disadvantage based on the power scaling of the story so far.
Tactics TLDR:King has advantage in range and versatility, and while he lacks durability, it doesn't really matter with the EZmode defense he gains by constantly manipulating multiple chastiefols at once. He autowins unless Mael was somehow even enough in PL to break through his defense in which
case he may instead be rapidly stomped by Mael, since his durability is just that bad where one good melee attack probably is an instant kill.
Mael basically autowins if he lands a hit, given King's trash tier durability with his body, Mael could quite literally just cut him in half and it's done, but despite his glass cannon nature King just has way too many advantages to lose. Chances are he would always use Pollen Garden or Guardian fast enough that Mael can't get close or hit him directly with ranged attacks, meanwhile he is constantly going to have to watch for Chastiefol's attacks and guard those. Unless something stops him from staying focused on Mael I don't see why even against an even PL Mael he could not keep him at bay. All damage to chastiefol is too easily regenerated so the win is decided by whether Mael can ever land hits. One nice thing Mael has going for him is that he can negate Fossilization through Sunshine as it courses within his body and should be able to destroy petrified parts of his body which he can then easily regenerate. But it just seems like King has too many advantages, where as long as Mael is kept away, he's eventually going to get overwhelmed by the many types of chastiefol attacks.
If it's the Ban that just beat the DK practically solo, King shouldn't be able to do damage. Snatch has never stolen hearts at a very long range before, but if it can, then the PL scaling should make King autolose.
If Nakaba is just messing around with the power scaling and King is not 4x weaker than him or something, then King's wide variety of advantages may give him the win. Strength-steal with Hunter Fest would probably not work as Garan was hit by that due to offering Ban a free hit, and Garan once showed that even supernatural magical attacks that would seem undodgable can be dodged with the proper movement, he could probably also block it with Pollen Garden unless it somehow bypasses defense.
Mael wins with moderate difficulty. Full Counter would seem pretty effective against Ludociel's attacks, and post noon Mael's power level should be around 180'000 allowing him to keep up with Ludo more than enough to counter a lot of attacks.Master of the Sun said:
Sinner wins easily.Master of the Sun said:
King wins, not only is the PL gap significantly in King's favor even when Zeldris uses the "God" power boost, but his flight should be able to outpace the gravity of ominous nebula and get out of range, while Zeldris' magic immunity does nothing against Chastiefol's spear/increase/Guardian forms.Master of the Sun said:
Zeldris wins, their power levels are even when he uses "God" and Ominous Nebula seems to counter the entire fighting style of Flash. If it's Ludociel in his original body then maybe higher difficulty, but Zeldris still wins, or forces Ludociel to retreat, which he can probably pull off well with Flash.Master of the Sun said:
Normally I would say an easy win for the sinner, but that's honestly doubtful after seeing how much Ludociel bodied him while merely in a decaying spirit form and unable to make use of his regeneration abilities for example. If the Sinner is automatically decaying, Ludociel can just retreat with Flash and auto-win, if he's not, then Ludociel would probably refuse to damage him until he's regrouped with more allies that allow him to overwhelm him and make "Crisis" useless.Master of the Sun said:
Seems like King stomps tbh even though that seems weird to me. He was evenly 1v1ing while at long range and Chastiefol can regenerate from any amount of damage. With King's new power up, he can always keep a piece of chastiefol near himself so all damage to a form of chastiefol is non-lasting and can be regenerated.Master of the Sun said:
The Demon King should be stomping without question, when "The Ruler" negates literally all forms of damage he can normally use, but given how his soul alone did major damage to the DK's real body in purgatoryI unfortunately must say it's debatable and Meliodas might even kill him one on one. If he could destroy his arm in one hit, then for all we know he might be able to totally vaporize the demon king in a few more.Master of the Sun said:
