Batman can fight Superman with preparation

Background

Preparation is defined as a character's ability to increase their capabilities significantly. Generally, in the presence of sufficient time, resources and conditions. An example of preparation would be how normal humans are merely weak by themselves, but they can make weapons that can destroy cities with preparation. However, preparation is also an optional addition to Versus Threads as while a character doesn't have to be given preparation, many of them benefit from it or cannot invent gadgets with preparation.

Types

  • Education: - Education is the ability to learn skills or knowledge that a character would not know or would improve. An example of this would be a Slugger training in another form of boxing so that they can counter a Counterpuncher style.
  • Evolution: - Evolution is the ability to adapt, grow, and become stronger before fighting an opponent. An example of this would be a character training before a battle in order to get stronger or even become passively stronger over time.
  • Technological Preparation: - Technological preparation is the ability to create gadgets, tools, weapons, etc. in order to help in combat. An example of this would be a scientist who is Human level but can make Planet level technology.
  • Information Preparation: - Information Preparation is the ability to gain information on the opponent before the battle starts. An example of this would be a character being able to find out his opponent's weaknesses.
