He's hardly trolling. See this is what we call "de-ba-ting". One side proposes an argument with evidence, and the other side tries to debunk it with other evidence.

You suck at debating because you resort to personal attacks.

Disregarding the fact that we don't know the power levels for Zarbon, Vegeta, Goku, or Butta during their fights, there still is no evidence showing that a character that is twice as strong is twice as fast. Who says you have to be twice as fact to get the jump on them?

I personally think he lost when I initially tore his original argument apart, but he desperately clings to the idea, so I have to humor him. Because, lol, I'm a troll!

I think the true faster is Goku and Cell, Because the Instant Transmission.

That's a technique, not their own speed

As already pointed out, Goku doesn't actually travel when he uses the technique. As Lustoid said, when traveling from point A to Z, he goes straight to Z, instead of passing through B to Y.

Nice try, but Vegeta already told Kiwi that his speed increased as his power-level did.

Default Re: Gotenks was FASTER than the speed of light...

I'm going to explain the basis of relativity for you all.

It takes an infinite amount of energy to accelerate matter to lightspeed.
At lightspeed, the mass of the matter is infinite.
At lightspeed, the object loses a dimension since when reaching relativistic velocities an object loses length, and at lightspeed the length is divided by infinity. Which means no length, hence loses a dimension.
Time does also bend, when traveling at lightspeed the object is not affected by time.

Note that Goku, who was weaker than Ginyu was before using Kaiô-Ken, was faster than Butta. And Ginyu called Butta the fastest in the universe, meaning he was faster than Ginyu.

So, in terms of speed, Goku>Butta>Ginyu
In terms of power, Ginyu>Goku>Butta

You can't judge speed based on power.

And of course speed increase with power, we all know that. But that doesn't mean twice as strong means twice as fast, it means faster means stronger.

And are you saying "out of character"?

Default Re: Gotenks was FASTER than the speed of light...

SSJ3 increases muscle mass, but speed increases. Your second example fails
Burter never had a speciality. It so happened that he was the same powerlevel as Recoome, but still had a higher speed. His only speciality was his bragging

Devilz is right

Speed is not directly proportional to PL.

Burter and USSJ Trunks are two examples.

Broly is really stronger but he hasn't a great speed.

So what's your point? It's all very well coming into a subject with the "I'm clever lolz" but you really do need to link it to the point at hand.
