Yes but that isn't the power that is measured by the "strength" stats. The strength stats are a characters base strength, not whatever strength heir quirk give them. As you pointed out, Izuku's strength varies depending on how much of his quirk he uses, but the same could be said about Muscular as well. For instance All Might's strength is 6/5, but this is just his bodies strength. The strength of the body is something that he has to build in order for his body not to get destroyed when he uses the quirk. Then what in the hell was even the point of All Might training up his physical Strength? Last time I checked, Uraraka doesn't have a set of muslces that even remotely rival Izuku's. It's heavily implied Izuku's physical strength increased dramatically, since he can literally thrown Bakugou around when he needs to, and you need some serious strength to be able to do that. Without that, that just suggests to me that there was next to no point to Izuku training at all - If it's just for show, how on earth does that help hone his body for the impat of One For All?

''You mean like how she made a ball float into space? No, if she touched Bakugou and made him float she could have just given him a little shove and he would have floated into space or out into the crowd. Sure maybe he could have used his own quirk as a jet engine to push himself back, but when he was in the air he would still be a sitting duck. Besides unless his reaction had been extremely fast she could have just deactivated her quirk and made him drop onto the ground outside of the ring.''

Absolutely not. Point one - Yes, she made a ball, that had no way to resist, avoid, or fight back, float into space. Not a Human with an emitter Quirk who is fighitng her. Especially not Bakugou. You honestly think he'd just accept that as GG, he's out? Point two - A sitting duck for what, exactly? Uraraka's trick ends with her Quirk, but she can't do anything outside of it. What could she do, throw rocks at him? Point three, unless his reaction was fast.... You know we're tlaking about Bakugou, right? You think he wouldn't react in some way? In order for Uraraka to even have a shot, she'd need him to be virtually right at the edge of the ring before activing her Quirk to even have a prayer of knocking him out of the ring before he reacts.

Bakugou's quirk is pretty shitty.

His Quirk lets him create literal explosions. I don't need to explain further, he's got one of the shows most powerful abilities, and it's naturally versitile - And that';s not even the point. Even assuming that his Quirk is garbage, he's trained it up to the point where it's incredibly powerful anyway, making it a moot point. The comment about his Quirk making his hands hurt is irrelevant. He used full power to avoid her Meteor shower, and was Still raring to go. Continued use of it? Yeah, that'd mess with him. A one time thing? Nah, he's still good to go.

''How is it untrue? And how does him being smart negate that he was forced to fight her in a certain way?''

Primarily because he made the choice to fight in that way. He could have gone in guns blazing, and still would have more than likely won simply due to his tenacity. He played it smart, choosing to fight like that to maximize his advantage, of which he very clearly had. He's a ruthless fighter, knows what he's doing, and his Quirk is extraordinarily powerful and versitile, without him even doing much with it. Say he wanted to charge her - There's be nothing stopping him from just grabbing her and blasting her out of the ring, like he tried Todoroki, or rapid firing, like Kirishima. Instead, he played it smart, figured out her plan, countered, and then rushed into attack when he saw all her tricks.

Implying that Ochaco's 5/5 technique was after her training with Gunhead.

I do imply it, since the notebook for her statistics came out in may 2016 - After her Gunhead training. That leads me to suspect these statistics are based after the Intern arc, but I have no proof of this, and neither do you, so I'm goig to interpret them as such.

''My sides... dude, Zero Gravity is one of the most overpowered quirks in the entire manga.''

Exactly how? There's no qualifying statements for it. She can make things float and then make them fall - Which could acheive the same result by throwing a brick at someones head. Admittedly it wouldn't float, but the same effect would be acheived. The idea that she could just float people into the air is negated by the fact that people generally would resist it, would avoid her, or just beat her into submission before she even gets the chance to use it.

the number of weaknesses far outweights what it can do. Any force to push someone would render Zero Gravity just making the situation worse, since, as I said, people could just propell themselves if their Quirk allowed it and make her life far worse. She can then drop them, and then they're free. Wonderful. If she isn't careful, she sends poeple into space - Not exactly great for a Hero to murder someone by vaccum and subjecting them to freezing temperatures.

Her Quirk is so eaily countered, I genuinly question why anyone would want it. Seriously, if you can explain to me why this Quirk is overpowered or even worth a damn, I would genuinly appreciate it.
