He does not use it in the style of Tatsumaki or Mewtwo to spin land rocks around, or lifting entire cities up in the sky he is not a telekintic alien. He just happens to have TK as part of his long list of abilities.
I'm talking about actively using it on the enemy, to restrict them, otherwise who cares about his LS with it, it's useless.
He uses it situationally in combat or in his surrioundings to utilize it in the best way he can. He is an energy alien with TK as part of his ability.
My dude, I just wanna see him actually using it properly. His TK is damn well the only thing that's super dangerous here, it's bordering on instant win, but if he doesn't use it to telekinetically restrict his foe, like a psychic, his LS with it ain't helping.
Energy Cage uses the same principal as Energy net/forcefield and that is something which he uses almost VERY often
So? Yeah no shit they use the same power source, nobody is saying otherwise. But do you think because he uses his main power all the time, he'll use it in this specific way he did once (or never) in an actual fight? That isn't how it works, he's either done it, and does it often enough to where we can reliably say he will do so here, or he doesn't and stop arguing for it.
You can not make the argument of it NOT being the same exact cage shape and size so it doesn't count.
I literally can brother, let's say hypothetically Ben uses the move he used on the deer instead of what he did against Vilgax.
Bam, Superman knows he can do shit like that now, it didn't hinder him at all, and now he can play around it and retaliate back with AOE hax and just win negdiff.
You keep saying he uses his powers, without accounting for HOW he uses them matters greatly and effects the outcome of the match.
Since
entire gimmick of Shock Rock is making forceshields. I have an entire comiplation of him using barriers and since it's TK based barrier it will count. I have entire compliation of him using Forcefields left and right as it's his main gimmick
(Link).
Bruh wtf, saying "he makes forcefields with TK so he'll telekinetically engulf and Immobilize his foe" isn't going to cut it, ever, in any argument.
This is low-key saying "Stands can phase and have done so in combat, so they will phase into a foe's chest and crush their heart"-esque energy.
We use what we see them do, different application of the same power doesn't mean apply it differently here just because. If he's done so, actually show it.
I am, in fact, saying that what he does as Diamondhead doesn't matter in the same way what he does as any other alien doesn't matter. What matters is how he used this one, if he's done so, show some good examples, otherwise I'm going to have to handwave this argument completely and just go with what we see him usually do.
As for your forcefield link, those ain't what I'm asking for either, and aren't really helpful either (Supes is at least 6ish times stronger than them, and gas smashed through forcefields before, don't see any reason he can't here).
Superman can escape a forcefield through multiple means (even though in that clips he uses it for protection, not incapacitation), but he can't really escape what Vilgax had.
