Thread: Who is stronger? Sora or Nike?

Who would you say is a stronger rider at this point? Sora has been given all the spotlight and attention, but we've seen nothing to prove that he is stronger than Nike. What do you guys think their relative strengths are with and without the regalias?

that's pretty hard question. Nike has proven himself quite strong. But he bowed down to Sora the night they reunited, and Nike seems to be quite devoted to his brother, so I'm betting Sora is stronger. Also, Nike was "ignored" by other riders because of Sora, although Nike also had the ability over wind like Sora. And because Sora was the Wind King and not Nike(Nike wasn't even a King before he took Kilik's regalia), Sora seems to be the superior one here, even with the regalia.

But I don't think it's important who's stronger because I think they like to attack in combination.

nike is stronger because kilik said he wouldn't go against him outside of the tower he did not have this problem with going against sora

They've both been made out to be monsters, even for Road Kings. But Nike was spoken very highly of in Trick: 164, with his defeat over Kilik(stealing the Gem Regalia core in the end), and his powerful Road... He's capable of catching the wind, like Ikki and Sora(which you guys will have a more prominent example of in Kuu's tankobon scanslations of volume 18, look forward to it), in addition to his abilities as the Gem King.

It hasn't been said outright, but Nike certainly seems to be the stronger of the two. Following Sora could be for a number of other reasons. Sora doesn't necessarily have to be stronger than Nike for it to play out this way.

When did he say this?

i kind of think nike is a little stronger...

pure speculation though.

there is absolutely no evidence for this but this is what i think...... they are both twins, but most importantly they are guys. if they are like normal guys they compete with one another, even more so because they are twins.from a guys perspective and a brother's, i would never bow to guy unless he was stronger then me and could whup my ass.

so my vote goes for sora being stronger.

at the time of the old SF, nike was waaaaaaay stronger than sora(even though he wasn't even considered a king, but only sora's shadow and everyone forgot about him)

right now, i think he's still the stronger of the two...i mean, sora passed some years on a weelchair, while nike continued to live as a storm rider, and created genesis...he has to be the strongest....oh, and i don't think he was bowing to sora, that was just a consequence of his landing after jumping on the roof of a skyscraper...but he could even be a subordinate of sora, afterall he has always been a subordinate of him, even though he was the strongest of the two...

hmmm well for me i think that sora is stronger than nike because nike is only the shadow of sora, and besides nike bowed to sora when nike got the regalia right? so i think that sora is stronger than nike

im thinking that nike is probabally stronger and who knows maybe nike is just using sora right now?

hard question, I guess Sora is stronger, just speculation.
Nike can take Regalia core from Kilick a lot of because Kilick exhuasted himself fighting Sora and tried to protect the wind Regalia core.
(One thing I dont quiet understand is:how can Nike take the Regalia core from Kilick's AT...and if Nike took/broke Kilick's AT, how did Kilick win Nike or get away...)
And I agree with Amxed, if they need to attack somebody strong,like kings/queens, they most likely would attack in combination..
