Introduction
Hello everyone, with every new event in Shadow Fight 3, we get a new statement or feat that could serve as a potential upscale. This crt provides a thorough revision of them.
This thread has three sections: the first focuses on stellar elements, the second contains a major speed rework for the entire verse, and the third focuses on void-related statements.
Section 1
Void energy statement
Chorus of the void is one of the most well known sets in this verse, worn by major characters like Mnemos (ancient). Its legendary skin comes with a statement about void energy (one of the three energy types powering this armor): Void energy can erase any matter in seconds. The outpost where this mysterious armor was found turned to dust in an instant, lighting up the night with a flash brighter than a dying sun.
It produced a flash that was bright enough to light up the night sky. If we consider "dying sun" as referring to the red giant phase of the sun (literally, the dying phase of the sun), we can scale it accordingly. Currently, the sun's energy output (in luminosity alone) is 3.828 x 10^26 watts. During its red giant peak, the Sun's luminosity rises nearly 3000 times its current value (7.7 x 10^29 watts), producing a flash brighter than it should scale to Moon level (referring to the Attack potency page). The suit can withstand such energy output, and characters can deal damage to the player equipped with this armor, making them worthy of this rating.
Supernova feat
In the latest special event, the player faces ITU (the Void’s dream). He has several abilities, including the ability to summon black holes (5-A) that pull the player in and immobilize them temporarily, and the ability to perform Dimensional Slash, which opens a portal to a dying star and deals heavy damage to the player.
Since the star’s mass isn’t stated, we can assume the bare minimum required for a supernova: around 8 solar masses. I’m including this feat to show how consistently the cosmology incorporates stellar-level elements in combat.
Star Liquidator statement
The primordial void of shadow fight cosmology hosts not only its multiverse, but also a star system containing thousands, if not millions of void stars. These stars (presumably burning on void energy) could be way more powerful than any regular star found inside universes, based on the previous void energy statement (energy conversion: Regular matter Outpost --> Moon level energy output). Star Liquidators can burn out the ancient stars to help bring new ones to life. Many characters evenly match the player with this set, but since there are no quantifiable details about these void stars, they remain inconclusive. Again, adding this here just for the sake of consistency.
Section 2
Currently, the characters in Shadow Fight Arena reach speed of light/FTL speeds by dodging light attacks.
For example, we can consider Helga's Light Smite; Fireguard can dodge it perfectly using its evasion move; this speed is then evenly matched by the rest of the cast, warranting them a FTL~ speed (higher with shadow energy).
However, this wiki applies it only to Arena characters; it should be applied to all characters as Shadow Fight Arena is canon to Shadow Fight 3, and the majority of Arena's cast includes SF2/SF3 characters (eg, Helga appears in both Arena and Sf3).
Section 3
Letter from Void's dream
This is to shine some light on my previous thread about The Void, which was rejected because members thought it lacked one of the key characteristics required for BE3, which is to have its state of nonexistence be the reason for its superiority.
Itu (Void's dream) discusses his origin in this letter. What's interesting about this letter is that something very similar to Nirvana is being mentioned as the Universe gets to know about itself (enlightenment), it goes as follows: the Universe goes through countless cycles of birth and death --> finally dreams of a vessel, uses the vessel to know herself/seek answers --> when she finds the answers (enlightenment) --> All meaning is rendered obsolete (all worldly concepts/dualities lose relevance i.e. Trancending them) --> Blissful nothingness reigns (dissolves/ascends to formless emptiness i.e. becomes one with the void).
Hoaxen (one of the 10 underworld gods) personifies the concept of illusions and incomprehensible principles of life; he is the master of illusions. He states life itself is an illusion, and he enjoys as people get stuck in their own illusions; this is a descriptive remark about reality and perception, which reinforces the nirvana argument.
Non-duality statement for the Void (+ addition to tenebris' profile)
In the latest Void world chapter, Caligrapher states that Tenebris (the user of the Tenebris language, which is used to create planes/universes) does not view the world as dualistic at all; dualities like Fire/Ice, Life/Death, and Light/Dark are the same phenomenon to him. He is the one who forged the light and darkness (duality) of worlds. This suggests that Tenebris is a higher-order being that is not bound to classical logic, in general. Reality was shaped using his language, which lacks the logical operator "not", which means reality has a non-dual layer where A and not-A are the same; he both predates it and exists beyond it (in the void). Therefore, Paraconsistent physiology (type 2) should be added to his profile.
Let's look at one more instance where non-duality was mentioned in this series. The plot is about the veil between worlds becoming thin during Halloween (a.k.a. Night of the Dead in some cultures), which allows spirits from the realm of the dead to enter the world of the living. After fighting, one of these spirits talks about "the past combining with the future, truth with falsehood, where the veil is thin". This suggests that adjacency to the void dissolves general duality, and the void exists beyond that layer of reality; Tenebris is the physical manifestation of the void.
Eternally "Now" / "Present"
I want to expand more on the "past combining with the future" part. It is said that void room (a supercomputer in the void) perceives the past, present, and the future all at once; it views the timeline from an external perspective. Meanwhile, inside reality, time is said to be malleable and flexible; changes in the past have real-time effects on the present (in chapter 7.1, the player travels back to the past thrice, each of these travels made immediate changes in the present that didn't exist before the time travel). This indicates the void's higher existence, compared to space-time.
This is backed up in one of the Q&A sessions with the developers; events happen sequentially to the player. June's plane, Itu's plane and Marcus's plane are 3 different timelines, but their events take place sequentially in the story (June --> Itu --> Marcus).
During June's plane, Stranger was still inferior to Shadow. (He was completely powerless)
After the events of June's plane are over, we move on to Itu's plane. By the midsection of Itu's plane, Stranger grows stronger than Shadow; he was finally capable of performing reality warps and changing the world to his will.
In Marcus's plane, the world has always been under his control, which is the complete opposite of June's plane.
This sequence is completely broken due to the nature of the void. All these events take place simultaneously.
Eternal Void
Nothing in the Void is eternal other than the Void itself. It is said to be the source of everything, Incomprehensible and works with its own laws (Void's first announcement in Shadow Fight 3 - Teletype).
The above arguments draw some similarities between the Void and the God key of this profile. But obviously, the argued rating here is not boundless, but 1-A instead.
This suggests the Void's nonexistent nature is, in fact, the reason for its superiority among other things, so BDE3 has to be suitable.
Please refer to my previous crt for some more info on the void.
Edit - A few more scans and arguments have been added this week
Conclusion
High-tier characters of this verse, i.e. the ones who can keep up with Mnemos in combat, should have their tier changed to Moon level (5-C).
This includes (15): Proximus, Shadow, Shadow mind, Bolo, King of the legion, Magmarion, Titan, Shroud, Shadow Doubles and May (Justice).
Speed change for all characters (except Old Wounds): Massively Hypersonic+ --> FTL
Paraconsistent physiology (type 2) should be added to tenebris' profile.
BDE3 is left open for discussion to see if it is agreed upon. If accepted, the following changes would be appropriate
Tenebris (The Father / Creator) - Low 1-C, possibly 1-A (Created everything in the void, which includes the countless number of worlds with their dualities and the Infinity beacon, which stretches to every part of the void, to act as a transportation and communication system.)
Architect (The Writer) - Low 1-C, possibly 1-A (As the writer of the Shadow Fight series, Architect sees both Tenebris and The Void as fictional entities. Architect stated he can delete the entire world of Shadow Fight if he wills so. Kept up with Shadow, after the latter previously defeated Tenebris in combat.)
Shadow (Underworld) - Low 1-C, possibly 1-A at peak (Defeated the underworld Gods and Tenebris in combat. In the TURN BACK ending, Shadow received power directly from the void, to shape reality with his hands and make peace with the Eternals.)
Sensei - 8-C | 8-C | 8-C, potentially Low 1-C, possibly 1-A with Void's power (Received the void's power alongside Shadow.)
Architect (The Writer) - Low 1-C, possibly 1-A (As the writer of the Shadow Fight series, Architect sees both Tenebris and The Void as fictional entities. Architect stated he can delete the entire world of Shadow Fight if he wills so. Kept up with Shadow, after the latter previously defeated Tenebris in combat.)
Shadow (Underworld) - Low 1-C, possibly 1-A at peak (Defeated the underworld Gods and Tenebris in combat. In the TURN BACK ending, Shadow received power directly from the void, to shape reality with his hands and make peace with the Eternals.)
Sensei - 8-C | 8-C | 8-C, potentially Low 1-C, possibly 1-A with Void's power (Received the void's power alongside Shadow.)
