Yes, and his inmense MFTL+ travel speed is still his advantage to charge a Fa jin first and win
all of AMAZO's speeds are brought down by the same multiplier so that MFTL+ travel speed is brought down to Deku's slowest speed.
Deku is a 8-A using amps to get to 6-A, Amazo is a Low 7-B with kriptonian physology, Martian physology, amazon physology and regen + adaptation, he is prepared to tank it
He can copy willpower when he is a robot and he shouldn't have that and also needs a literal technological ring that is almost impossible replicate and the guys who did it are EG
all said physiology is Low 7-B, he isn't suddenly going to tank a 6-A level attack that is millions of times stronger than he is cause of that. adaption to what? he can cover the weaknesses that come with powers but he can't just adapt to the level needed to survive the recoil or needed to use said attacks, he'd obliterate himself trying to use a 6-A level attack nor is this guy Garou who can jump tiers through it since thats not accepted on the profile.
copying willpower =/= copying stockpiled power, OFA took yrs to get to where it was by the end of the series and needed to be directly transferred for said power to be given to the user. i'm not doubting he could but using the full power of OFA for Amazo isn't happening like at all.
Amazo is the one who is using Deku's power first like gearshift to stop him, superman ice breath and can ******* become intangible at will if he needs to dodge anything lethal
AMAZO using gearshift is far less substantial for him than it is Izuku due to him being brought down to his slowest speed, Ice Breath is so predictable its funny, and Deku has fought people who can turn intangible and perfectly predicted them despite being slower, he'd wait for AMAZO to drop his guard and predict him perfectly.
And hey, you want to argue "Deku perception blitz"?
Okey, Deku is the slower one with speed unequalized, not possible to do by the rules, which is irrelevant because Amazo after copying him can just become intangible, adapt to AFO and win by being Deku without human limitations, because clearly Deku is a killer that is gonna use 100% in the first second of the fight, good, Amazo becomes intangible in the first second of the fight as well then
what?
1. Speed is equalized with Deku starting in base so AMAZO due to being faster is brought down to Deku's slower combat speed including all other speeds by the same multiplier. idk why you're talking about "speed unequalized" when thats just not the case here
2. Gearshift is literally accepted as a perception level amp when used, "
even higher with Gearshift (Fast enough to
blitz Shigaraki beyond his perception) and Overlay (
Can match the speed of
Full Power Shigaraki even without Gearshift)" so he doesn't even need to be using Gearshift to actually GET to said perception level speed and can just use Overlay just to prevent the problem and is far more substantial for Izuku due to the speed difference.
3. AMAZO isn't Garou, he can't change stats or change tiers through it. the only thing his adaptation does is remove weaknesses that previous existed and even then thats accepted as "if given enough time"
4. I never said Deku is a killer, read the profile if you don't like the fact he'd use 100% as soon as the fight starts lmao "
Standard Tactics: Deku typically starts his battles by activating One For All at its maximum available output." and Amazo is a robot, why would Deku feel any need to care about it? its not Shigaraki who he was connected to on a spiritual level or some misguided villain within the MHA verse like Nagant of Gentle Criminal, its "evil robot who wants to end the world and is a serious threat" even then Deku had no problem killing All For One at the very end of things.
5. being intangible is nice and all but Deku isn't stupid either, he isn't gonna get trying to attack Amazo after seeing it once, he'd likely even deactivate Gearshift since it'd become a liability after too long and could just use overlay to keep the perception level speed. thats giving Amazo the benefit of the doubt he'd even be able to react to someone who is perception blitzing him as soon as the fight starts and if he'd even try intangibility first out of his numerous options to protect himself well also getting his movements predicted nor does Amazo "copying" give him the knowledge that Izuku's attack would wipe him from existence since its only "physiology, weapons and mannerisms" hell he still needs to actually examine Izuku after glance giving him enough time to perception blitz him.
Finally
If Deku started this fight with social influencing and tried to know his motives, by logic of the series, he could convince Amazo that lex luthor is just using him or that he could used those powers for the good of others, giving him a purpose
But hey, Deku starts via instakilling, so yeah, no, that is how he was "defeated", talking to him and he left, Deku can do it, is in his powers, so sorry, not a stomp
social influencing is something Deku has only ever done towards the end of the battle when the opponent is already incredibly exhausted (Nagant) or clearly someone struggling who he cares about deeply (Todoroki)
social influencing has failed in the past, he tried it on Dabi the same exact thing with Todoroki who simply laughed in his face when he did.
Deku doesn't know anything about Amazo so its incredibly unlikely he'd even consider trying social influencing so this is a pointless statement.
