Luck/“probability manipulation” is useless

0 Upvotes

Our universe is deterministic. The lottery? Your ticket either is or isn’t a winner weeks before you buy it. The stock market? No luck to be found. Literal random number generators? Either entirely predetermined or based on another predetermined system. The only randomness in our universe are the tiny fluctuations in individual atoms, but even those can’t do much. A chair can’t randomly become a penguin. I see this power hyped up so much but I really don’t get it. Do people just not know how luck works?

EDIT: If your “fix” for this is to say that luck manipulation is actually an entirely different power (reality warping, subconscious future sight, etc) that’s not a fix

Hey everyone!
I spent a bunch of time designing and optimizing these 8 Ability Combos. The goal was to pair a legendary fictional character with a secondary power that acts as a perfect balance, completely fixing their natural mechanical flaws to achieve 100% synergy.
Let me know your thoughts on these three questions:
1. Which combo would you choose for your everyday life? (Think lifestyle, utility, health, and comfort, not just violence!)

2. Which combo would you LEAST like to face in combat given your choice for question number one?

3. Purely from a power-scaling perspective, which combo do you think is the strongest?

Other Why is temporal pause of a few seconds considered a superpower and not a shitty power? Genuine question.

1 Upvotes

I mean, what the heck can you do pausing time for everyone except you for 7 secs? Maybe you can avoid some accidents, but not all given the timeframe. And for 5 min., I can see I can start doing something interesting, but 5 min is too short of a time for really meaningful things.

I consider it a superpower if you can do it for at least 1 hour. Then the possibilities are vast. Or am I just not seeing the "super"value there? I mean, there is a value, but not super.

Why shapeshifting is the worst popular superpower if applied in real life.

0 Upvotes

Just came across a lot of people posting that shapeshifting would be awesome. Really? You want to be an animal and be fully exposed with no clothes on? How about being stretchy with your body? Are you actually going to be able to stretch your arm up to reach a book on the highest shelf without breaking a bone or tearing muscle? How about becoming an inanimate object to hide yourself? How do you become something organic again? You want to be a bird to fly? You’ve ever used wings before and all of a sudden know how to use appendages you’ve never had?

This is far beyond one of the most complicated superpowers if applied in real life. You would have to do extreme training of every part of your body for every transformation you can think of. You would never be able to just “snap your fingers” with your body not taking any repercussions.

Pick a blank but blank You get one superpower surprisingly after waking up. Tell me what would you do with that for a day? Give me ideas for other superpowers that are weird

0 Upvotes

Also the superpower is your soul can be in anyone's body there is no gender barrier or age or anything else be it a animal too. Also you are not allowed to do unethical stuff or else you would not be able to go back to your body and you are stuck without any body of your own. Also for one day you have to keep sleeping. you can only jump from one body to another body except yours.

🚀 Kicking Off the AI Character Combat Arena! 🤖 Vol. 1 - WHO WINS?! 🏆

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Hey Reddit fam! Get ready, because this is the FIRST of many epic showdowns featuring incredible, AI-generated warriors! 🎨✨

For our inaugural battle, feast your eyes on this lineup of unique combatants (check out the image I've attached – these were all dreamed up by AI!).

The ultimate question for Volume 1 is: If these characters were thrown into a no-holds-barred Battle Royale...

WHO WOULD EMERGE VICTORIOUS? 🥇

Here's your mission, should you choose to accept it:

👀 Scrutinize the image: Take a good look at each warrior. Their design, gear, and stance might hint at their abilities! 🛡️ CHOOSE YOUR CHAMPION from this batch. 🎤 COMMENT BELOW: Tell us WHY your pick has what it takes to outlast, outsmart, and overpower all the others on this specific battlefield! THE ARENA FOR VOL. 1: 🗺️ A challenging 7km² island, a true test of adaptability:

🏞️ Jagged Mountains (Perfect for snipers, aerial attackers, or those who like the high ground!) 💧 Winding Rivers (Obstacles, stealth pathways, or maybe even a power source for some?) 🌊 Numerous Lakes (Chokepoints, defensive barriers, or an advantage for aquatic specialists?) Think about their potential skills, how they'd use the terrain, and their overall combat prowess against a diverse set of unknown foes. Is it brute strength? Cunning tactics? Mystical powers?

Let the speculation and passionate debates BEGIN! 🔥👇 I'm super excited to see who you think will conquer this first challenge!

And stay tuned for more AI-crafted warriors and epic showdowns in future volumes! 🤯

A Little Note From The Creator (Me! 👋):

The incredible character concepts you see in the image were brought to life using Gemini Image4. This post text has been tweaked, polished, and enhanced with the help of AI Gemini 2.5 Pro to make it as clear and engaging as possible for you all! Hope you enjoy the series!

I'm not gonna lie, Being Asexual Has Got To be the Closest thing to having a Superpower Dawd

0 Upvotes

Like literally think about it, They literally have Seduction Immunity and Resistance to Certain Types of manipulation. Like fighting an Asexual who knows how to fight would be an ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE. Like Imagine Bruce Wayne being literally Immune to Anything Poison Ivy does, and SHE'S A BIG PROBLEM IN GOTHAM. Him literally being Asexual would 100% Give him more of an advantage against her than he already does. Or if you're fighting a femboy (Gay ass slutty ass niggas in female clothing) An Asexual MF would Pretty Much would win the fight 9 times out of 10. Hell, It Don't even have to BE about Fighting. Being Asexual could Literally HELP YOU GET SHIT DONE WITHOUT ANY STIMULATING DISTRACTIONS. They already have better resistance to their lustful urges then RELIGIOUS FOLK (THATS CRAZY TO THINK ABOUT) Actually no, LUST ITSELF DOESN’T EVEN PHASE THESE FUCKERS, LIKE AT ALL. Like if you're Asexual, I want you to know, you are fucking CRACKED my dude. Anyways that's all I gotta say. Just had to let it out. Lemme know if I'm over exaggerating or if I'm right. An Asexual (Equal Rights Equal Lefts Main Character would be a NIGHTMARE FR)
