Time to toot my own horn here:

As it was so delicately pointed out in Ch 9 of my OMB self-insertion:

***
The shrimp gave him an even glare.  "Oniichan, *I* could run you around the
arena.  You're not bad for a mortal, but you've got a long way to go.  You
keep on falling for feints and overextending."

She's right, you know.  'Niichan really needs some practice.  It's not nice
of her to point it out, though.

I made a point of making my avatar technically the weakest of the group in
OMB.  He's got a useful power in the utility sense, and probably someday
he'd be the most physically adept, but come on, this is the OMG universe!
How often does fighting show up here (in the original flavor sense)?
Spellcasting he's whipped, Technology he's whipped, hell...with Belldandy
around he can't even cook & clean.


Hell, even looking at my two other major SI works:

Turn the Page:
    1990's: -everybody and their cousin can take my avatar.  He can probably
hold his own with liberal use of his time-freeze (at least long enough to
RUN!), but in a toe-to-toe battle he's toast.
    3010's: -OK, I'll give you there, my avatar could probably take most of
them...but then, he's been training with war gods for 1000 years, he's
allowed to have some perks.  Besides, being not quite stable has to help in
there somewhere.

God's Toy 1.x, Bubblegum Crisis:
    Ahahahahahahaha.  I'd rank him probably better than Nene, worse than
everyone else.  Only reason he doesn't get in QUITE so much trouble is the
speed.
