People are way underestimating Kuirpaka. His chain jail is his ace against the troope but he was able to fight against the strongest member of the troupe (in terms of strength) equally. His powers when aggravated make him a specialist who gains mastery over all the forms of nen. Thats impressive.

The only person who he cant beat is chrollo. His power is just too haxxed.

So a mid tier like Kastro can take 100% Uvogin's Big Bang Impact with only a broken arm? I don't think so. That's Yorknew City Arc Kurapika. I'm pretty sure Current Kurapika is a lot stronger.


You quit this forum? Why?

This is my scaling for the Phantom Troupe.

Kuroro > Feitan > Phinks > Nobunaga > Franklin > Uvogin > Machi > Bonolenov > Shalnark > Shizuku > Pakunoda > Korotopi.

Kurapika defeated Uvogin back in the Yorknew City Arc. I think he'd be tied with someone like Franklin. He'd be beaten by the top 4 of course.

Current Kurapika should be extremely strong, and with his Chain Jail, he could potentially beat all of them.
Who knows if Kastro can take a big bang, he is an enhancer but its not clear how strong he is. What we do know is that Hisoka respected his talent enough to let him survive their first fight and Machi made it clear that Kastro could have won if he remained cool and collected. But all that is irrelevant to this discussion.

Kurapika will struggle more with Kastro than Uvo simply because Kastro isn't a spider. Kurapika's is the worst match-up for any spider while non troupe fights will see him as above average, thats how the story is written.

Lol. Kurapika was easily beating 50% Uvogin around, and took on 100% Uvogin's Big Bang Impact with only a broken arm. He's certainly very strong.

Current Kurapika, however, is an entire different story. If he got a lot stronger since Yorknew, which he should have done, he could beat the entire Troupe.

Definitely all excluding Chrollo, Feitan and maybe Phinks. Those 3 im not so sure about seeing as how they're the top dogs. Remember Kurapika's chain still has to hit in order for Chain Jail to work, Chrollo can potentially teleport Kurapika within range and its gg. Feitan can definitely avoid Chain Jail and perhaps deliver a fatal strike seeing as how he's the fastest Troupe member by far, not to mention Kurapika barely kept up with Uvo's speed, I mean he definitely didn't speedblitz Uvo that's for sure, and Phinks is a maybe.

Edit: Also can't forget that Chrollo managed to evade both Zeno and Silva's attacks with no intent to kill whatsoever. If Chrollo's serious I can't see how Kurapika would be able to win a fair 1v1.
We can't be sure that Feitan is the fastest in the troupe. Remember that the guy Bonolenov fought was the speedstar of the group and Bonolenov blitzed him twice. Bonolenov's twchnique (Battle Canterbille, where he dons an african spear and a shield) makes him move at the speed of sound, hence why he speed blitz stabbed the ant after activating the technique. Bonolenov other technique, Jupiter, covers a wide range and the technique moves at the speed of sound. We also don't know how fast and strong Shalnark is when he activates autopilot. For all we know he could be the fastest character in the series in that form. Basically what I'm saying is that we shouldn't jump on anyone's bandwagon. Anyone of the troupe could be a GOAT, not just Feitan, or Phinks, or Chrollo. Ofcourse we can write off someone like Shizuka, she's clearly dogshit in battle. Kortopi and Pakunoda can probably be written off too. It seems their abilities are not that good in battle but usefull for torture, interogation, and espionage. But the rest seem OP to me.
