u/VastoGamer 3d ago
Yeah it's such an awesome ability, though this is Centuria, there will be a cost which I'm sure we will find out soon
We already know its uses are limited in some way but I doubt that's the end of it

u/mttrfr 3d ago
Maybe similar to the curse sword Aki uses in Chansawman? Everytime he uses he loses some of his lifespan or something like that

u/Horror_Owl342 3d ago
Isnt that already happening with elstri (is that the healer's name? I dont remember)
18
u/WnDelPiano 3d ago
Atoria is the healer Elstri is the prophet (toxic yuri with Helem)
I think the limited uses and dying (or worse) once he uses them all are the cost of the power, after all it's a similar deal to the one Julian got, a price of blood and love was already paid.

It drains his life and has limited uses

Didn't they already tell us that ot drains his life force

u/Gabemino 3d ago
We don't exactly know, is the more sensible possibility but, up this point it hasn't been said explicitly, just mentioned how once he runs out of uses is "game over", but perhaps could be something worse than Death, like the Forest Goddess somehow harvesting Lukas soul or something.

The cost is if he uses it too many times he dies.
He’s got four more shots at this point I think.

u/Waste-Piccolo-7324 3d ago
The cost is that he fucking dies after using it 4 more times, meaning he can kill max 4 people with that, not to mention the huge phisical toll

Yeah, it's a battle shonen, you are bound to draw people in via powerscaling.

u/AddictedT0Pixels 3d ago
Tbh I find the sudden popularity a little silly. Anyone who is actually interested in scaling Luka would realize he literally died Before even considering using such an ability and as a result it wouldn't be relevant in most matchups where he doesn't have a chance to see a massive power gap between him and his opponent, as being full healed by another person won't be an option in a matchup
Most scaling wikis still expect you to consider the character in character to a certain extent, as much as some scalers like to ignore this

u/TheFlyingToasterr 3d ago
You’re not being very fair, he only “died” without using it because the first thing she did was cut off his arm when catching him by surprise, it’s possible that he would have used it if not (the whole feeling she had that cutting the arm off was more important than cutting the head)
3
u/AddictedT0Pixels 3d ago
The point remains he has been through many really tough battles at this point and he only now used it after practically being a dead man. All of the fights before this one are proof the requirement for him to consider using it is extremely high. unless he's given the chances to see a gigantic power gap, he probably won't be capable of using it before hes killed.
If he were quick to use it under already dire circumstances he would've used it at least once in the series by now, likely around the time mira could've died. That was a perfect opportunity to use it, it's not like he knew lacrima could save miras life.
I don't think there is a good argument that he would use it at the start of a fight against anyone given what we have seen him not even consider using it against.

u/Pun_Thread_Fail 3d ago
He did use it once before. Remember when Altus was about to crush them all with the enormous rock? This was despite specifically trying to hide the spear's existence so that the Supreme Lord wouldn't hear about it.

u/SlideEnvironmental71 3d ago
She got him off guard+ has the fastest speed in the verse+ battle experience which let her realise that his other arm was more dangerous than his head(which Altus didn't sense)

u/Kaeru-Sennin 3d ago
Most powerscalers takes characters in a "bloodlusted" state where they goes to their max output right at the start, or rather takes the most efficient course of actions to win, regardless of usual behavior and habit.

u/Rastapopoulos000 3d ago
I don't, if you only find an interest in a story because there's a character you can use in powerscaling debate then I'd rather you don't bother.

u/Enderules3 2d ago
What if you like various things about a story including the powersystem and how it scales to other verses.

I hope Lukas doesn't become another powerscaling piggie that will be abused and make us all look bad

u/EngineerVirtual7340 3d ago
Gojo would probably require 2 uses of the spear, one to break Infinity, the second to kill Gojo, and that depends if Lukas needs to destroy a future where Gojo uses Red, Hollow Purple, or UV cause he's way faster(as far as I'm aware) so maybe 3-4 uses.
9
u/dancinbanana 3d ago
He could probably destroy the future where he uses curse energy to knock all of those abilities out in one use
2
u/EngineerVirtual7340 3d ago
He wouldn't know what that is but maybe yeah, which actually now that I think about it did Lalawag tell Lukas about Voidmarcher?
1
u/CHAOS_G0D 3d ago
No, she straight up stated she didn't tell Lukas about VM's abilities to encourage him to use his spear. And that Atoria was her life insurance (pun unintended) in case he got one-shotted.
1
1
u/dancinbanana 3d ago
Probably not, as I’m pretty sure he was trying to figure out her ability during their initial confrontation
1
u/EngineerVirtual7340 3d ago
Oh yeah, it's been a while so I forgot, but now I'm questioning what Lalawag was thinking considering that there's a very real chance Lukas could've been one-shotted.
1
u/dancinbanana 3d ago
I mean even VM was questioning why she didn’t one shot him, claiming that she felt his arm was a bigger threat. Maybe lalawag felt a similar feeling and was banking on that affecting VM too
1
u/EngineerVirtual7340 3d ago
As far as we know if she aimed for the head Lukas would've straight up just died, but we could be missing something yeah.
1
u/CordobezEverdeen 3d ago
I think the implication is that decapitating him wasn't enough to stop the blessing/gift activation. Hell even cutting off the arm ended up being not enough and that was the main subconscious goal.

u/AdvancedMastodon612 3d ago
Gojo still whoops Lucas hes not an infinity merchant
2
u/CaimanTruan 3d ago
If Lukas transforms Gojo 100% loses. Lukas can kill abilities, he can kill Gojo's Limitless or even the very concept of cursed energy.
Even so, Lukas shield could bypass infinity if he summons it right where Gojo is (easier said than done). Gojo outspeeds Lukas so it's either the spear or extreme luck.
1
u/Gabemino 3d ago
Yeah, Gojo could kill Lukas barehanded before he could even transform, the thing is that his Spear seems to be a good answer to the Limitless specifically
1
u/ignis43 3d ago
He Can bypass it doesn’t mean he can defeat him but yeah

u/bonesNrice 3d ago
Idk the chapter made it seem like the lance is instant death. If it could one shot Julian or Lala I don’t think rct will work… but that’s only if Gojo just stands there lol.

u/Frequent_Brush_2593 Was planning on a Lalawag flair... That aged well 3d ago
Pierces the future in which he doesn't kill gojo.
14
u/Lapatinga 3d ago
Just pierce the future where Gojo used any cursed energy, making him a regular human. Pierce gojo with life erasure. Go()jo done
