Why are the viltrumites such fucking jobbers? I can't take them seriously.

Well no one takes you seriously so all is right in the world.

> jobbers?
I cant tell if this is zoomer speak or nigger speak or old fag nerd speak.
>>
>>219541325
It means someone who fights like it's their job. A real tough guy. Journeyman types like superman or clark cent
>>
okay i am starting to get tired of the deaths not being real. the original comic had plenty enough as it was with levy, rex, conquest etc..
shrinking rae surviving AND not being a mess of exposed broken bone was silly after all the crunching and gurgling. taking us on some OC filler hell sidequest was bad enough but everyone there also had extra lives to spare and nothing that happened was permanent.
i'm sure so many people were relieved to see damien darkdick's sister wasn't actually exploded to death and she was going to be okay

fuck that's dumb
>>
All that buildup for Thragg and he just watches the battle and then runs away like a pussy at the end

Don't forget he keeps his teddy bear close

Why didn't omniman and oliver feed mark their semen if he needed a protein source?
>>
I just realized they're going to add filler of Thadeus fighting back against Thragg before getting his head ripped off and now I'm mad

No, a jobber is someone that is supposed to be really really tough, but is only ever shown getting beaten up to make someone else look even tougher.
Worf is a jobber. He gets thrown around all the time to show how the new alien is really strong.
Galactus is a jobber. He gets beat by Thanos, DOOM, Red Hulk, or anyone else they want to show is a really big cosmic threat.
The Viltrumites arent technically jobbers, more like hyped up cans, but the description fits well enough.

>new characters show up to battle
>comic relief turns to bad guys and says “HA! You guys are in trouble now!”
It feels like they’ve done this bit over and over again
>>
>>219541905
Oh, i hate that trope. Why is it called jobber
>>
>>219541905
Immortal is a jobber
>>
>>219540652
The Viltrumites mostly job to other Viltrumites though.
>>
>>219541325
It's /pw/ speak, Anon. A jobber is a wrassler whose job is to get beat up and made look weak.
>>
>>219541994
it's a wrestling term
>>
>>219541994
Other anon got that right. It's from boxing. The guys that show up like it's their job to just get beat and make the new contender look good.
Like the term can - a can is a boxer that is easily crushed in order to pad a new potential's record.
A jobber is higher up than a can, but not as serious as a spoiler or a gatekeeper.
Spoilers are guys that will never be top tier, but have some little trick or quirk that can beat someone much better if they arent careful.
A gatekeeper is the guy just below the top tier who all the new guys need to beat to really make the grade. I follow MMA more than boxing, so often this would be someone with really good wrestling but not much else.

Oh I knew it from boxing. Wrestling and its kayfabe make more sense, tho.

just shoot them when their not looking
even goku dies from a laser in the back
>>
Viltrumites don’t feel like a threat at all. There’s less than fifty of them left, their slave soldiers are useless fodder and they can be handled by a buff old man and a little girl in a robot suit. Kraig is supposedly the 2nd most powerful and he gets completely dogwalked in his first fight. And Thragg just cries over his skull the whole time
>>
>>219542128
Problem is their toughness and survivability highly depends on their will and what the writer wants to happen.
Viltrumites that arent supposed to die simply dont, and get better real quick.
>>
>>219542128
I hate that we can see Mark get his guts ripped out but it's too much to show a man get blown apart by a space laser so they just vaporize into white light
>>
>>219541565
well he'll instantly kill someone next episode just to look less jobby
>>
>>219542277
Given that we are allowed to see Mark get a few yards of guts pulled out - dont you think it was a stylistic choice to have the laser not blow him to gooey bits?
>>
>>219542412
A retarded stylistic choice. Why hold back on that? Pussies
>>
>>219542128
I can't believe they killed Disco Elysium
>>
>>219542721
Because they wanted to show it does something different.
>>
>>219543557
So they ignore the source material to make his gun a gay lightshow? Shut the fuck up and don't reply to me again with your retarded nonsense
>>
>>219543752
Just admit you got filtered by the stylistic choice. There's no need to have a tantrum.

>Anissa's first instinct on the battlefield was to grab the only minor and start undressing her
Why is she like this?
