But he can definately screw with anyone whose quirk revolves around releasing a gaseous substance. Also Ralf doesn't breath or bleed. Those are side effects of being able to become a gas. So he can't be gassed out, and he can feign the appearance of infinite stamina, which can add a psychological effect in his favor. Then, his assimilate ability truly shines if he has access to another gas or brings some himself. For example, his hero suit comes with hydrogen and an igniter, which means that Ralf can assimilate the Hydrogen and make himself into a flamethrower or a bomb. And that's just with Hydrogen. He could also get things like Water Vapor or Carbon Dioxide, or some form of Sleeping Gas, or even a Neurotoxin. With these, Ralf only has to get a part of himself inside his enemy. I will concede that he is very bad when up against super speed quirks, as not only can they dissipate him, but they can also hit him before he can use his Cloud Dodge. Like it says in his profile, Ralf is not immune to regular attacks provided they are fast enough to hit him before he can react.
