  1. The Nox Nyctores shoots a blast from orbit and it reaches the Earth quite quickly. This has been calculated a couple of times (https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:ThePerpetual/Blazblue:_Take-Mikazuchi_fires_a_laser, https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:ShiroyashaGinSan/Blazblue:_Take%27s_beam_speed_recalc) to varying results, but I do have a pretty major issue with both of those calculations. Although they both offer reasonable values for the height of the satellite (but the newer version of the calc utilizes more assumptions rather than actual calculations), they both use a timeframe that I do not think is reasonable. Watching the video frame by frame, they only consider what we see until the beam is close to Earth, instead of the frame where the "explosion" begins, which would actually take into account the distance that is not seen until the beam actually reaches the surface of the planet. Using that value, we have a slightly higher timeframe of 1.56 seconds, which would give us 6% SoL results if we highball it to the distance used in the second version of the calculation (which I consider fair despite it being an assumption). But even then, when Take-Mikazuchi repeats this feat and that same animation is reused, we actually get to see something else: there actually isn't an explosion, because the beam does not get to touch the planet before it gets deflected by Rachel's Tsukuyomi unit (https://youtu.be/FwxxWAiMEpw?list=PLaoJReF6xg7tSsBiAiIJDB-sqHJ2YWsop&t=511). This creates a bit of an issue because there's the possibility of cinematic timing being used when Rachel is intervening, so the feat becomes borderline unquantifiable, but if we are generous with our assumptions, we can still use the 1.56 second timeframe as a highball, as it would approximately be when the beam reaches the atmosphere. This would give us Sub-Relativistic+ results, which is consistent with the results one can get when calculating Iron Tager's Astral Heat (https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:ShiroyashaGinSan/Blazblue:_Thicc_Boi,_Speed_Boi,_Strong_Boi).
