* The [[http://www.orionsarm.com/xcms.php?r=oaeg-view-article&egart_uid=4b539f86ef300 displacement cannon]] from ''OrionsArm'' is absurdly powerful. It fires a "bubble" of compressed space-time that is the size of an atom, infinitely maneuverable and travels at the speed of light. When it reaches the target it travels between the molecules in its armor and then collapses to release an swarm of monopoles that convert the mass of the target directly into energy, virtually assuring its destruction. How much overkill is this? A single displacement cannon destroyed a fleet of 10000 ships in ''four seconds''.

** Kara Holmes. Villain Blood Boy slices off her foot, ''shoves it into her mouth'', breaking her jaw and blows the aforementioned jaw off with firecrackers before leaving her to suffocate.

** A good example would have to be using [[http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-272 SCP-272]] on it. SCP-272 is a iron nail that, in the proper conditions, pins someone's shadow to the ground and will not let it go. If the shadow's length is forcefully changed due to the environment, it will pull the person closer to it to keep the shadow embedded under the nail. Thus, if the shadow is changed quickly enough, you can expect the subject to be thrown a large distance. The SCP Foundation decided to use (quoted from the linked page) "a circular array of thirty (30) two-thousand-watt (2,000W) stadium lights" to enact such damage on a large scale. "All thirty stadium lights are then switched on and off in random stroboscopic 'disco' pattern, at 4 Hz. SCP-682 is forcibly hurled around the enclosure in random directions, in accordance with the stroboscopic pattern, and sustains heavy damage." After ''55'' minutes of this, SCP-682 had sustained damage including 63 broken teeth, severance of its back-left limb, and "its skull has been fractured to the point that both its eyeballs have been dislodged from their sockets." It then evolved luminescence brighter than the stadium lights to nullify its own shadow.
** Another good example is having SCP-682 fight against [[http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-096 SCP-096]].
