Marvel’s new X-Men power hierarchy

[@Aureilius2112]

Cyclops is an Alpha level mutant. His optic blast being constantly active is not part of his mutation. It’s a result of a physical/psychological injury.

[@RationalRogue]

This is my thought exactly. Every source I’ve seen directly from Marvel lists him as an Alpha level mutant. This video seems like Robs head-canon.

[@SilasSeiler]

Rob says it in the video

[@m.mulder8864]

Good job, you found an error in a KZbin video. You should start your own KZbin just correcting whatever you come across

[@cjmacd07]

Yea, but i will say i did like the definition of beta just he used the wrong one. Rogue would have been a perfect example of a Beta mutant who became an Alpha, and she was right there on screen.

[@bepis2381]

He said this around 8:30. He says cyclops's power is definitely alpha level but because of him having less control over hit it slightly hurts his status as one. If he could control it and didn't have the injury it would be like low-alpha vs high-alpha. his power is alpha level but the struggle of controlling it, though he performs very well with the visor, would be better if he didn't have to use it.

I love how every time something gets mentioned about a character being able to keep up with the Hulk, it's always followed by; "Well we all know, if the Hulk gets more angry, or if time goes on, he gets even more powerful"

Because marvels poster boys can’t lose 🙏🏽

[@butkusfan23]

@@aaronwalker5759He's lost many times. But either way, a powerful character needs to show why he's such a hoss. Kinda hard to do that when you get beaten a lot.

[@marcelo335]

Hope's power actually has been redefined as Power Manipulation since Krakoa, mimicry is just one of the things she can do. She can completely nullify others powers (like Leech) and amplify them (like Fabian Cortez), she can stabilize unstable powers and she can synchronize mutant powers in a circuit, allowing them to operate at their peak and in unison (The Five). All these things are what make her Omega, differentiating her from other mutant mimics like Synch.

[@sunnydacosta5804]

Yeah synch is definitely omega level tho

[@comics_explained]

Wait when was this established? Is it in the Jed MaKay run? I don't remember it in the Krakoa run.

[@terrancehylton-lyons1776]

​@sunnydacosta5804 Synch isn't because when he uses powers of ppl, he is far from it, kills him slowly

[@echolocationn]

I thought that Franklin Richards wasn't actually a mutant based on what Xavier said that his x-gene was artificially created by Franklin himself, which is why he wasn't welcome in Krakoa. Also, isn't Mad Jim Jaspers, the villain of Captain Britain a mutant?

[@Anbualex]

I think there was a comic that explains he hid the xgene or powers on purpose, I remember Rob going over it last year

[@rafaelvillegas2296]

@@AnbualexI think he only activates his powers once a year but I could be wrong

[@Ked7]

Fun fact: that may be false. He could have artificially erased it like he did his powers. We don’t know currently. I think he has it, he just hid it.

[@bignblack63bx]

Franklin has to be a mutant. Mutants are born with their powers. How did he get his powers if he wasn't born with them? All this x-gene stuff is just over complicating things. Mutates get their powers from something. Mutants are born with their powers. Nuff

[@superstcr]

Another thing I’ve noticed about Emma Frost vs Jean is that Emma worked hard to be the telepath that she is today and Jean was destined to be how powerful she is. It’s the argument of hard work vs innate talent

[@Jaymastia]

so which one is greater?

[@jisoostwin3572]

Exactly it’s like Hard work/skill overtime Vs Power just alr being present

[@dbears1603]

​@Jaymastia Jean Emma just doesn't have the power to keep up even if she has the skill, and she stands no chance now that has become one with the phoenix and is now a cosmic entity

[@Jaymastia]

@@superstcr so talent beats hardwork. then again, there is the issue of fated with Jean

[@flipper7511]

I disagree, Jean put a lot of work to learn how to control her powers. You can tell this just by reading her origin story. And after that she had to work on controlling her immense potential. Emma also worked hard to learn how to use her powers and is very precise with them. But in term of pure potential. Jean wins. Love them both

Hey rob, I know you don’t take too many fan requests. But I would seriously love if you continued the “Marvel Rivals Skins Lore” series. As a long time watcher and comic fan, aswell as a huge player of rivals, I seriously enjoyed the series and found it super informative. I have so many questions about some of the other niece skins in the game, and you seem to be the only one with any kind of series that covers skin lore. If not tho, all the best!

[@Aureilius2112]

Yes. In X-Men Annual 2022 fire star asks Cyclops this question. Cyclops chooses not to fix it because of how much the visor has become a part of him.

[@Marx1684]

@@Aureilius2112Sounds like trauma. They aren’t using their resources properly. 🤔

[@KajiXD]

@@Aureilius2112 Yes. It was also temporarily fixed in Astonishing xmen by either Emma or Cassandra nova (can't remember who) but, he prefers the visor

[@JamesakaJimmy]

Man, you are the best comic personality on the internet. Keep up the great work!

[@ABCDG13]

I thought that when Cyclops died over and over again and brought back through the protocols, that injury that kept him from being a alpha mutant would be fixed but didn't, which was a disappointment to his potential! Please answer this query.

[@Aureilius2112]

Cyclops is an Alpha level mutant. Rob is wrong. His blast being always on is a result of that physical/psychological injury. He can overcome this but he chooses not to because the visor has become an integral part of himself and how he uses his powers. Check X-Men Annual 2022.

[@vatazes]

If you listen carefully, Rob says that if not for this injury, which Scott still has (it was never corrected and never explained), he would be an Alpha. Cyclops is very powerful mutant. But because he needs something to help him control his powers due to said injury, he is classified as a Beta. If he had not suffered that injury, he would have full control over his abilities and no need for the glasses or visor and would then be classified as an Alpha.

[@Aureilius2112]

@ If you read carefully, you’ll see the part that I point out the injury isn’t part of the mutation and therefore has no bearing on his mutant classification. And he is classified as Alpha. Officially. By Marvel. So Rob was simply wrong.

HE'S STILL FAAAT! -Scott Steiner

[@godbearxd]

I knew most of this information already but my whole question is what if somebody with an X-Gene got exposed to an external factor as well? A great example of this being 1: What if Cyclops got exposed to the chemicals that created Daredevil? 2: What if Wolverine was on the verge of death after the Adamantium surgery, then made a deal with the devil, and became Ghost Rider? 3: What if Quicksilver had gotten bitten by the spider that bit Peter Parker? Ectect

[@1241Aprilstone]

Interesting ideas for some what if stories tbh

[@Ked7]

1, that would result in a secondary mutation which may bring his status up depending upon the new mutation. And daredevil doesn’t have powers, so exposure means nothing. 2 he would still be his rank of mutant, but he would also then be in the ranking system of mystics(like the lady with a sword and demons) 3, he would die. But he would be the same level of mutant plus a spidersona.

[@godbearxd]

@@Ked7 Dear Devil *definitely* has super senses above that of Spider-Man. He straight up has echolocation so I don't know where you're getting that info from. Also I don't know why you think Quicksilver would die from the spider that bit Peter Parker.

[@Ked7]

@@godbearxddaredevil has enhanced senses, but they are not a power. Captain America, hawkeye, and Cyclops have perfect trigonometry. They learned that “power”, but if you were to copy their powers you cannot get their perfect mental mathematics nor daredevil’s enhanced echolocation. And secondly the spider bite to power exchanges are determined by a *god* or three. If said god(s) does not find you worthy they will kill you as you don’t gain the resistance to the venom+radiation. These are literally facts of comics. I don’t know where you got your information from, but it is false.
