Don't the Q have self-restricting laws against doing junk like that though? Q himself obviously has flawed mental capacity (see: falling for Captain Janeway >_>). I'm pretty sure even Crono could get him to say his name backwards...er...>_>
Did you see the episode True Q?  The girl asks him
"What do you do with the power?"
"Whatever we want."

The only thing they have to lose is if they go way too overboard and cause too much mischief they might be stripped of their powers.  In the last episode of TNG All good things, they tell Picard that if he can't stop it, Humanity will be destroyed.  Does that kind of answer your question?

I'm fairly sure Crono had a yellow sword at some point. Yellow trumps green, if I recall correctly.

You mean his wooden sword, made of wood?

If it is yellow, then yeah. Pretty sad that the Green Lantern would get his ass handed to him by a stick, but I'm not the one that made his ring weak to the color yellow.

As for the yellow sword thing against a Green Lantern, that doesn't effect newer Green Lantern rings like Kyle's or John Stewart's (the black Green Lantern).

I'm actually glad to hear it. It was a fairly craptacular weakness, almost as bad as being weak to one's own home planet.
<.<
>.>

But anywho, since as you pointed out things are getting a little out of hand in the comparisons. Given that Crono faced a monster, perhaps we should limit ourselves to humans and monsters (rather than humanoids of various origins and sundry).

Which is probably a good thing, because the next step would have been to throw a Time Lord into the mix and he's already proven that he can outdo "fake gods and bad gods and demi gods and would-be gods" etc.

What hero hasn't proven that they can defy dark gods of sorts?
Now the challenge is to make sure the bad guy doesn't come back. Not too many can do that. Crono did do that, by turning it into technically an entirely different being. So by stopping one evil, he accidentily created a greater evil.

And, Green Latern is weak to the color yellow? I guess he can't come onto forums then because of the smileys. Hell, he can't use the internet at all! In fact, how does he live if he's surrounded by yellow everyday?

A yellow smiley isn't an attack, for one...nor does he require his Green Lantern ring to surf the net (though I guess he could create a computer facsimile and then everything would have a green tint)...and like I said, it was a flaw of the old GL rings. Now the only weakness lies within the willpower of the user, I'm pretty sure...I was never a big fan of any GL, really...

I think what we should focus on is the fact that we're being asked who'd be a "worthy match" for Crono...I don't think Q snapping his fingers would be much of a match at all, really...So maybe those kinds of instant death people don't count? Bye bye, Potter, no Avada Kedavra 4 j00!

Watchout!
Jack, jack jack jack.
Back to the past
It's Samurai jack!
That'd be an interesting fight to see. Just like Crono, he battles the apocalypse of the planet itself, he uses a katana, he has major skill with it, he's a time traveler, AND while he might not have magic he's proven against all his magic wielding opponents that he uses very unique and interesting forms of fighting in order to even the odds. I'm not sure but that MAY be a topper(being a better face off than Samus or Megaman, the top choices).
Thoughts? This one seems good.

It almost seems like Jack was inspired by Crono...


This is also coming from someone who sees similarity between Piccolo and Magus, so don't take it from me.

Oh, man... when was the last time I heard anything from Samurai Jack? *after a quick check on Wikipedia* Here's the thing. Jack's sword only destroys evil. ... EVIL!!! It won't harm good.

AH!!!! Knew a match like that was too good to be true.
Sorry Jack, maybe if Crono merged with Lavos instead of Schala?

...I'm pretty sure he could get away with using another sword. Or weapon. Isn't he a master of pretty much anything the plot requires him to use?
