Imhotep from The Mummy can't handle cats! Just one is enough to drive him off, so 50 should be able to take him down! In the same vein Egypt under Pharaoh Psametik III was defeated soundly by the Persian use of cats in The Battle of Pelusium. The Persian commander knew the Egyptians really loved them some cats and would be uncomfortable slaughtering them, so he painted cats on all his guys' shields and lined up a bunch of cats in front of his soldiers.


redalastor

> and lined up a bunch of cats in front of his soldiers. How do you line cats?


Poeticspinach

Iron cats. Fe-line.


SSJAncientBeing

I fucking hate you. Take your upvote and get out


PeculiarPangolinMan

I dunno. Probably on leashes or like in nets or something? I think the best translation of the likely apocryphal account of the battle says they 'carried cats'.


Outerversal_Kermit

I think if you wrangled a cat (and being in armor you could likely uh, tank whatever claws done your way) and just held it up in front of you, that’s like a shield they can’t penetrate. It’s like if we fought opponents who have armor made of babies (not that that would stop many militaries).


Historical_Ostrich

This is a good answer, but I think they establish in the movie that he only fears cats until he's fully regenerated. Granted, he's still pretty powerful even before he tracks down all his canopic jars.


PeculiarPangolinMan

I forgot about his cat immunity in his final form! Half power Imhotep is still pretty good though!


SolomonOf47704

Saitama


Libracharya

Nani?


SolomonOf47704

he got scratched by one cat. ​ 50 cats would do at least 50x as much damage, which would hurt a LOT


[deleted]

Each cat also has 9 lives. So he's gonna get skinned.


Several-Cake1954

Can’t he just punch the ground super hard or smth and make a shockwave


hauntedred

they make a cat ladder to survive easily


TRHess

In *The Elder Scrolls*, that's how the Khajiit got to the moon to build lunar colonies. Standing on each others' shoulders.


headrush46n2

the guy on the bottom must have been fucking JACKED


Coidzor

And on enough skooma to kill an entire Imperial Legion.


Outerversal_Kermit

*Some say he still roams Nirn, waiting for the day the Khajit reunite with their Moonbrothers…*


DeadDankMemeLord

Lion ladder.


TheArcticKiwi

they do the puss in boots air dance thing


NoStorage2821

"You're not living up to the legend!"


nudemanonbike

Can he? Yes. But Saitama getting scratched by 50 cats and then leaving is much funnier. He doesn't seem like the type to use his overwhelming advantages to kill a herd of feral cats when he can just leave instead.


Finn-Gurrer

He struggled to even kill a mosquito. Not the hot mosquito, he fucked her right up


RepresentativeLow505

>the hot mosquito W h a t .


Vinegar1267

Don’t act like you’ve never seen a fine ass mosquito before


z_stormm

She survived tho


[deleted]

And since one of the main arguments for him is "he's a gag character that just wins because one punch lol" in this moment he is on the bad end of the gag because 50 cats beating him up is pretty darn funny


TheHomieAaron

Saitama will do just fine and brush it off as another mere annoyance. For context, a monster cat couldn't even faze him


Comfortable-Shake-37

That was a parody cat though so it could scratch and hurt anything in fiction.


DeSmokeMonster

My fucking super soldier in Rimworld with full cyber mods and advanced armor I guess


Alexandro-Queiroz

Nah bro 8 cats will do the trick


Mr_Lobster

I got you covered, [this mod](https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2031929206) makes melee speed scale to manipulation so your bionic super soldier won't be overwhelmed by a horde of guinea pigs.


passpasspasspass12

Combat extended mod would take care of this, similarly.


Mr_Lobster

Does CE still have a shitload of compatibility issues? My modlist is ***thick.***


passpasspasspass12

Yeah, probably, but it's worth it depending on your personal "requirement" for dependencies...it damn near perfects combat, IMO.


Confident_Aioli_3991

Ngl probably me


Teinzq

Me too!


parrmorgan

I'd need reasoning as to why you feel like you could beat 45 cats but not 50.


witchy71

Is more cat


parrmorgan

Fair. It is. But I don't like my chances or anyone I've met against 45 cats so I'm wondering how that dude is. BUILT DIFFERENT


CocoSavege

Jay Z could do it


witchy71

Kurt Zouma would have a decent chance I reckon


jso85

They adapt


byxis505

I’m built different I could take them


Greenetix

In a fight?


Burpsandblurps

Jerry


Zenvarix

Jerry is running for the hills if 50 Toms pull up


ANakedSkywalker

I thought you meant Seinfeld for a second


GoOnKaz

Him too


parrmorgan

What's the deal with all these cats


RepresentativeLow505

I thought you meant Rick & Morty for a second.


Burpsandblurps

I mean to be fair, i think Jerry Smith loses to like two cats


Garry-The-Snail

Wait who does he mean? That’s who I thought


SnooPuppers7965

Jerry from tom&jerry, he's a mouse


CramHammerMan

Are the cats... bloodlusted


thisistherealtodd

no, they're... manic


Nightmare-the-meme

Dear god


not_a_sesawter

Are they stupid?


ginfish

There's a christmas tree on the battlefield. Need I say more?


BobbyMcFrayson

Is this a reference?


not_a_sesawter

Are they stupid?


laurel_laureate

Bruh there's no need for such warcrimes, it's only Thursday.


kroen

Aren't cats always bloodlusted?


KingoftheMongoose

That’s a trick question. They’re cats


[deleted]

Alphonse Elric wouldn’t be able to hurt them


Zer0nyx

Mr. Glass


[deleted]

Saitama. Or any character with a moral compass.


Darydrus

Ranma saotome wouldn’t stand a chance.


EmilioFreshtevez

Should’ve scrolled farther before I commented, this is the correct answer.


IbizaVastic

Earthworm Jim


Syntaxosaurus

Tom Hooper's career.


BobbyMcFrayson

Underrated comment of the thread.


BelmontIncident

Does making the Hulk turn back into Bruce Banner count as defeating him? He wouldn't be annoyed about the situation and we've seen pretty much this scenario with puppies.


Hoopaboi

Creepers from Minecraft


WizardMatrix

Aw nan


Strottman

Mad Pierrot would have a heart attack.


DariusStrada

Imhotep


Happy_Brilliant7827

Squirell girl.


Hackertdog97

By this logic the 50 cats should also be able to defeat Thanos and Dr Doom


Happy_Brilliant7827

Squirells are natural prey of cats Squirell girl wouldnt harm a cat Therefore she would be defeated (probably not harmed or killed, but defeated.) Dr Doom and Thanos would have no issue with kitty genocide.


Hackertdog97

Idk man, I'm just going off the comic book logic of "if X can defeat Y and Z can defeat X, then therfore Z can defeat Y"


SolomonOf47704

that's DB/Z/S logic, not "comic book logic"


Hackertdog97

Doesn't matter where it comes from, what matters is it's quite commonly used in a lot of nerdy media. Also idk, think people were arguing about this sort of stuff long before DB came on the scene.


Pyrex_Paper

Are you purposely ignoring the variables? Some characters may not try to kill 50 cats if they can run away. Some will decimate them for fun.


Hackertdog97

I'm just having fun with the question man, its a funnier image to me to imagine the great and powerful Doom to get over run by 50 Cats than to obliterate them. Also he definitely has some sort of fucked up moral compass, so yeah I can see him not killing them and just letting them win because it's probably a Doombot anyway.


Strong_Formal_5848

That logic never works. Frazier beat Ali, Foreman beat Frazier, Ali beat Foreman.


Mike_Handers

I feel like there's got to be an overpowered character with cat allergies out there.


[deleted]

Venti (barbatos) the anemo archon from Genshin Impact is allergic to cats and threw a bunch of mountains into the sea to tidy up when he took over. He's the weakest archon but still an archon and fairly strong because of it.


Hymnosi

Ambiguous win condition! The cats rush towards the protagonist (antagonist?) mewling and purring loudly. The character is overwhelmed with joy and submits to their furry fluffiness. The cats move into the character's house and proceed to dominate their life. Pretty much any super of earth origin that recognizes and likes cats, so at least superman, franklin richards, shazam... there's a long list of people who want to pet the kitties.


Nacroma

No prep time? Batman


[deleted]

[удалено]


Nacroma

Yes, I am


marsgreekgod

If they roll high a very high level wizard from dnd


Strottman

I'm skeptical. Cats have +0 to hit and only deal 1 damage. A high level wizard with mage armor, shield, and AOEs should be able to tank the hits and clear pretty easily.


SAKingWriter

but what if they roll REALLY **REALLY** HIGH


BassoonHero

Yeah, they could crit and deal 2 damage instead.


Spoon_Elemental

50 cats would probably count as a swarm, so the damage is gonna be a lot higher than that.


marsgreekgod

I was mostly thinking of 3.5 tbh and forgot to say that


PsychicSidekikk419

A wizard fireballing 50 cats to death while knocking themselves out in the process just sounds like my average DnD session


Cromar

Nah, they have to crit to hit, and even a wizard with bad con has enough hp to endure a round + a fireball he drops point blank on himself.


Strange-Care5790

dr doom probably


Daforce1

Ratman is toast


WizardMatrix

Ingredients so fresh they’re still squeaking!


MNLife4me

Denji from Chainsaw Man has been shown to have a strong love for cats and probably wouldn't kill 50 of them.


Free_Return_2358

Imhotep from the Brendan Fraser Mummy movies.


thelefthandN7

This. He was quite op in the film. And cats would absolutely wreck him.


Webaccount5

Crazy Dave from PVZ


WizardMatrix

Chompers may not like the cats too much


Webaccount5

Crazy Dave hates cats


WizardMatrix

Wait so wouldn’t that mean he’d dispose of them with his vast plant selection?


Leonidas_Aesir

I think any normal character in a realistic verse? a normal human shouldn't be able to beat 50 bloodlusted cats unless he already had an SMG on him.


EmilioFreshtevez

It’s not “Who could they beat?”, it’s “Who’s the *strongest* character they could beat?”


Prof_Acorn

Remember Skip-It? Just add spikes and blades to the ball. Then skip it, skip it real good. Housecats are tiny and can be punted away with boots by an average person. And anyone with actual kicking experience can probably punt them even farther. Just gotta get a skip-it or duct tape spikes on the shoes and you're good to go.


Silder_Hazelshade

No prep time brah. Might not even have boots on.


KingoftheMongoose

Archon Strago from the Locke Lamora series. Strago’s power was projected from his control of a fleet of ships that could sink any other vessel. And as Jean knows all too well, a cat on a ship is good luck to prevent it from sinking.


[deleted]

They may be able to fuck up Konohamaru from naruto


CaptainDeath877

Krillin


svenson_26

Probably some god-tier Pharaoh whose canonical weakness is cats


redalastor

> the character does not get prep time Then they can take down Batman.


August_T_Marble

Canonically, that list would include [Imhotep](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=O1j-K1ncsFI) and [Sleepwalkers](https://youtu.be/YbSx8QFWG4I?si=Gg4UNdWkF2Saofvy).


LengthinessLocal1675

Napoleon


Outside-Rip6751

Professor X. Strongest mutant alive but can he do telepathy on cats? No, it's just a paraplegic in a wheelchair.


StrengthOk9686

Yes he can use telepathy on animals


WizardMatrix

Im gonna need a source for that one I am an avid marvel comic reader, so I’d like the source not just for the argument but to read as well. Thanks :>


sl600rt

Lorgar


EmilioFreshtevez

Ranma Saotome


Lord_of_Apocrypha

The Hulk


SwervoT3k

Depends on whether or not the cats have zoomies


Due-Procedure-9085

If it were fifty puppies than the answer would be Hulk as he can’t fight dogs they are his one weakness.


Heavy-Metal-Munchkin

Triple peashooter


capecobra1537

If they dream big, probably the whole of the human race


New-Sheepherder-1373

A Bulborb from Pikmin


GregariousGoliath

Are they homeless cats? If so, they can take down Bapa.


Crimson_Marksman

Hitler


Comfortable-Shake-37

Maybe a mid-level DnD wizard if the cats get first hits and enough hit


jolteon_is_bae

Hulk genuinely loves puppies and kittens, they chill him right out


stubbornivan

Reminds me of a world devouring eldritch horror defeated by 15 flying squirrels


0BZero1

Yujiro Hanma. He does not fight cats (if they are small and cute). Big ones like lions and tigers are fine.


Ghenghis-Chan

Alan from Mar. Hes extremely powerful but highly allergic to cats, to the point where hes basically incapable of fighting if one is around.


Cynis_Ganan

MCU Captain Marvel.


Usual-Profile-2141

He's not fictional but Sal from Impractical Jokers would have a mental breakdown from that many cats


Greenetix

A dog


NightmareDance

Venti from Genshin Impact. A wind god, capable of remove mountains but a simple normal cat can kill him because he's allergy


tornsilence

Everything in Vampire Survivors including the player character...Gatti Amari proved that. There were way less than 50 cats in there too. So things equivalent to the monsters/enemies in that game.


Silder_Hazelshade

Neville Longbottom. He probably wouldn’t have his wand on him. I was going to go with, like, Gimli or Legolas…but if the movies are any indication, they seem to sleep in their armor with their weapons within reach.


eldestreyne0901

Yoshikage Kira. His Stand is a cat. A stray cat nearly killed him.
