Just for clarification, Liu Kang and Raiden's power combined was capable of matching Cetrion because one is a Thunder God and the other is one strong enough to beat Shao Kahn single-handedly everytime they fought. So how exactly does this mean Shao Kahn scales to the Elder Gods in power? Shao Kahn beat Raiden outside of Earthrealm each time he won, Raiden is much weaker when he steps into another realm. Even Shang Tsung feared Raiden's wrath during the first tournament that took place in Earthrealm. When Kahn invaded Earthrealm at the end of MK9, he was powered up off the majority earthrealm souls and that of the slain Earth's greatest warriors that Sindel killed. Kahn obeyed the Elder Gods' rules for a reason. If we're to get even deeper, Shao Kahn was murdered by a combined assault from Shang Tsung and Quan Chi, the same two who defeated Raiden and Liu Kang. If he truly was as mighty as the Elder Gods, he would have been Shinnok level power which he certainly was not. Kahn is a beast, but he is not Elder God level.

[@praghoxshochkweaveblossom5627]

Honestly, if you ask me Akuma was the faster fighter if you include his appearance in Tekken 7 into account assuming its canon which I think it is considering surviving the Raging Demon was considered a canon feat by Heihachi Mishima in his death battle against Geese Howard, I see no reason why it isn't canon for Akuma. Akuma landed the Raging Demon on Heihachi Mishima (Granted it didn't kill him due to plot and he was caught by surprise) who could react to at least 4.09% the speed of light according to the episode mentioned above by scaling to an Inferior Jack models and Heihachi and Akuma could outmanoeuvre Jack-7s no problem. That is more then double the fastest speed feat Shao Kahn has shown. This didn't even mention the fact that Akuma wasn't in Shin Akuma or Oni form when he fought Heihachi so it's likely the gap been Akuma and Shao Kahn is even bigger then that. I am not saying that Kahn couldn't win this fight he was stronger and more powerful but that doesn't really translate into direct combat I mean Liu Kang has beaten him time and time again so between the Raging Demon and Akuma's superior speed I think Akuma should have won this.

I'm not generally a fan of power-scaling, but I acknowledge that it can be used well in some cases.

They never said Raiden was an Elder God. He's a demi-god. And because he was able to keep up with a Raiden that was amped by ALL the Elder Gods, not just Cetrion, for a decent amount of time, it's reasonable to scale him to that feat.

I move Korra and her power is no joke and definitely more varied but I'm guessing Storm will win due to what I call "the legacy clause" meaning that since Storm has existed for longer and in many incarnations there's a higher chance any of those incarnations will each have a single incredible feat that makes them OP that when melding them into a single "prime" version of the character the newer less explored opponent has no chance

Storm doesn't even need to do that. All she needs is a well placed lightning bolt.

Rey vs korra would’ve been better imo storm is gonna stomp

I do remember that one game that put Akuma against Asura and apparently in one attempt by Akuma to use "the raging demon" Asura actually counted it but then again that was just during a crossover event between Street fighter and Asura's wrath.

I thought the point of akuma's finishing move was that it targets the soul, not its raw power..so comparing it to a feat of raw power is kind of odd.

[@TheTriangle444]

shao kahn has multiple souls he would have to raging demon each one of them. he could also steal akuma's soul right then and there.

@@TheTriangle444 have you heard akuma's catchfrase when he performs raging demon fist? It goes something like uhm I don't know "die a thousand deaths." And akuma has displayed resistance to soul eating abilities.

Legit, I mean they literally stated in their analysis that the only way to survive the attack was to remove your own soul from your body... Shao Khan should have fallen to the attack in my opinion, but it is what it is. You can't always have the character you root for win when it comes to Death Battle, although I was low-key disappointed with this outcome to be honest
