You think Sanji has something on Haki'd red flaming Hawk pistol?G2 alone --> Sanji wins fairly comfortably (Sanji has better firepower)
Did you even read my post???You think Sanji has something on Haki'd red flaming Hawk pistol?
This was never the case. Gear 3 was always something that Luffy used to get in a finishing blow once he's already worn the enemy down or just to deal a massive blow. Gear 2 and 3 were balanced parts of a singular offensive tactic: Wear down the opponent.Remember when G3 was a more powerful stage than G2. Now it has been reduced to just another tactic. Luffy wins both high diff.
He didn't use it this way against lucci. But you kinda hit on the point I was making anyways about it being a powerful finisher. Well I don't think it is even that anymore is what I was getting at. G2 seems to have almost very similar fire power in terms of relative effectiveness against major opponents. Take doffy for example, G2 RedHawks seemed as much as if not more effective than G3 gigantic attacks.This was never the case. Gear 3 was always something that Luffy used to get in a finishing blow once he's already worn the enemy down or just to deal a massive blow. Gear 2 and 3 were balanced parts of a singular offensive tactic: Wear down the opponent.
Gear 2 and 3 were never something like Super Saiyan and Super Saiyan 2. It was never "Gear 2 isn't working, I need to use Gear 3," they were both two halves of the same arsenal.
