What are your thoughts on how common/countered a hax/ability is? More so about how countered an ability is rather than how popular it is... I was thinking it could be an interesting way to look at it.
At the bottom, we would have elementalism at lower tiers and existence erasure at higher tiers. Very common powers with their conventional forms having boat loads of counters in many different forms, such as various Regenerationn levels, immortalities or even just non-existence physiology as ways to counter basic existence erasure.
Then as you go up, the powers, whether offensive or defensive, become less frequently countered, both because it's harder to think of a direct or indirect resistance to it and also because the power is so unique and unusual, it's unlikely that a character from a completely different setting has a counter to it... Ex: Junko's purification and Oryx's taking are examples of potentially very specific and unique hax that unrelated characters usually don't resist.
The "omnipotence" tier of this would have to describe a power that's so exotic that its effects are described as being 'apparent' rather than the actual power itself, in which the actual power beyond its observable effects is left as an incomprehensible cause through lovecraft levels of vagueness.
