@@CrimsxnGhxstThe Doom Slayer can beat any character in fiction, no matter their strength, speed, intelligence, combat prowess or even experience. The Doom Guy fought off the legions of hell for eons, and that was when he was just a regular human. No matter if you put him up against Kratos, Master Chief, Goku, One Punch Man, or even the literal creator of the universe itself, Doom Slayer will prevail. To quote a certain KZbinr: if you’re strong, he’s stronger; if you’re fast, he’s faster; if you’re smart, he’s smarter. Doom Slayer is the literal embodiment of “I’m just better.” No one can match Doom Guy’s prowess, but if someone could, they would be fighting till the end of time(at least in the scenario that they are enemies). He’s so powerful that, if he so happens to die(like in the Games), time will canonically rewind to give him as many redoes as needed. So yeah, in short, Doom Guy does solo Kratos, and literally any other character you put him up against. Doom Slayer is just better.

[@ianrager]

You were close, but here's my paraphrasing of the actual lore (Get comfortable, and optionally get some food and drink, this is gonna be a long-ass reply, and I won't be including a TL;DR anywhere): Davoth was the original slayer, the creator of all realms, and the strongest demon in all of existence. He's basically Khorne from 40k (from what little I know about 40k) but an all-creator deity with literal God-tier abilities Davoth MADE *_THE DOOM SLAYER_* in his OWN image, to act as the living embodiment and surrogate of his rage and vengeance against The Father and The Makyrs. He did this because he was so incredibly blinded by his own rage and vengeance for The Father sealing him and his people off from all the other realms, that he wanted to destroy the Makyrs, no matter the cost, and didn't give the slightest of fucks about his minions getting FUBAR'ed constantly by The Slayer, as well as the subsequent event that he had long foreseen where after The Slayer kills The Father for good, he then hunts him down and fights him in a mortal 1v1. He was T H A T committed to his crusade of vengeance against the Makyrs. He was so blinded by his rage and vengeance against The Father for D A R I N G to seal Hell off from all other realms, that he created and enacted an entire master plan to allow him to seize control of Urdak and the Makyrs, kill The Father, and achieve his ultimate revenge indirectly, all via his unwitting surrogate of uncanny resemblance, The DOOM Slayer… but simply didn't give a fat rat's ass about the Slayer hunting him down and fighting him, because he was completely resigned from the consequences of his actions, whatever they will be. My personal head canon is that he ultimately wanted what the Slayer also wanted: to fight someone truly equal to them one-one-one to the death for the first time ever, the first time that a fight will *_ever_* be a legitimate challenge to him, and ultimately kill them. Ultimately, The DOOM Slayer lived up to his name by slaying the Harbinger of DOOM, resulting in the immediate complete and utter cease of Hell and Urdak as threats to the multiverse, the Slayer losing his divine strength, returning to simply being the DOOM Marine, and being sealed away forever in a coffin, never to be seen or heard from again. The source for ALL of this information: I read every single collectable piece of lore in the entirety of DOOM Eternal and all of its DLCs. My fingers hurt, I'm gonna stop typing now. Edit: I typed all of this on a phone, that's why I hurt so bad.

​@@ianragerwait, so they actually retconned the original old doom games? Because back then he really was just a human guard on the research of opening portals on Mars, he just got caught in the mess that ended opening portals directly to hell. Yes, looking back on what he done even there he showed many superhuman feats but the flashbacks to when he was caught by the Sentinels showed that he was still mostly human, he was fatigued and wounded, and the Sentinel guards had to beat him up to capture him there, even the UAC researcher notes in eternal said they managed to get blood samples (so he CAN bleed, possibly can still really die and get hurt by the stronger and large hordes of demons he is not ultimately invencible no matter what) and prove that he was human afterall, even if heavily mutated by the argent and Maykr tech with the divinity machine. But if he was always basically the Avatar or the original creator God, wtf was he doing on earth being just a randon ass guard living supposedly a regular life and with the distinct love for a pet bunny which the demons killed and its what started this whole crusade?

[@FringeWizard2]

I like the original lore and gameplay and care nothing for these remakes.​@@unkindled6410

[@ianrager]

@@unkindled6410 Get comfortable again, it's another long one without any TL;DR. Okay, so The DOOM Slayer only gained that divine power once he was imbued with it by the divinity machine. Up until then, he was still pretty much just human… albeit one of the strongest, fastest humans. Once he was imbued with power by the divinity machine, he pretty much just became a human with divine strength, speed, and stamina. Although both Davoth and The DOOM Slayer are the most powerful beings in DOOM canon, neither are truly invincible. Both The DOOM Slayer and Davoth have limitless stamina, and enormous divine strength and speed… that's what makes them so powerful. Neither are even close to invincible, that's why you have a health and armor bar… though honestly that could just as likely be The DOOM Slayer nerfing himself on purpose to make fights more fun. My theory is that Davoth can both create AND destroy using his divine power, whereas the DOOM Slayer can only destroy with his divine power. The DOOM Slayer always holds back, otherwise fights would be trivial, over almost immediately, and would figuratively bore The DOOM Slayer to death. Although in-lore The DOOM Slayer is much much faster after the Divinity Machine, he's technically slower in-game than DOOM 1 and 2… this is purely for gameplay reasons. The same gameplay reasons for why in Sonic games you never *_literally_* run at the speed of sound, or even supersonic or hypersonic speeds: it's unplayable for all humans. Our brains, eyes, and fingers are incapable of processing and moving at the speeds necessary to be able to keep up with that insane level of speed. (Okay, the eyes and brain can SOMETIMES approach processing things that fast when the body is practically E X P L O D I N G with adrenaline, but apart from that, absolutely not.) Edit: I just remembered that fighter pilots exist… god I can be dumb sometimes. Alright, STRICTLY USING A MOUSE AND KEYBOARD OR CONTROLLER, any and all human fingers literally cannot move that fast. Disregard the part about "ALL humans" earlier though… fighter pilots are legendary. /Edit Hell, the *_E N T I R E_* reason that the DOOM Slayer holds back so much is for gameplay reasons. As for the retcon… yeah that happened. He went from being an extraordinary (but still entirely human) space marine to always having been an incarnation of Satan, who is also God, but just as an ordinary human at first. That never did really sit right with me, but canon's canon, so it's the way it is.

[@thedoomslayer5863]

@@ianrager Hell wasnt hell initially it was some other place that became hell when it was sealed off by the father and Davoth's rage changed the entire dimension itself. "Hell" before it was known as hell was the first place in existence. And if i recall it was the Divinity Machine that elevated The Doom Marine to The Doom Slayer. That was when The Slayer truly became beyond gods and could destroy anything and anyone. Been a while since i played but i still remember some of these things.
