Talk:Metal Sonic VS Zero/@comment-30508636-20170617181632/@comment-29378577-20170617222613

Metal's time stop is way better than Zero's because Zero's only works on minor enemies, it runs on a weapon energy meter, and Metal's can affect Super characters and can be used multiple times, and can be used in base form as shown by Sonic Rivals. Metal can also fly to get around Zero's speed.

Metal Sonic doesn't have a weak spot in Overlord form, even the wiki says this as he is the only final boss in the series with a non visible weak point. Also, when the teams in Heroes attacked his glowing point, it did Jack shit. Also Metal Overlord can fly too and is FTL+ via keeping up with Super Sonic, even if he isn't as fast.

I don't know where you got your info, but Zero is not smarter than Metal. They both tend to charge into things a lot. Zero isn't known for his thinking, if anything Metal is smarter since he was able to outsmart and overthrow Eggman's plans on several occasions, and Eggman has 300 IQ. Zero also gets blown up a lot in the series, so I don't know if he's necessarily more durable, especially since in the mainline games, Metal Sonic has never been totally destroyed, not even in Sonic CD since Sonic 4 Episode 2 showed he was still intact at Stardust speedway.
