Surfer and the enemy aren't trying to destroy the planet. They didn't attack the planet or have an attack deflected so that it struck the planet directly. They were just in a power struggle and the energy that flowed from their struggle destroyed the planet. There is absolutely nothing that suggests that if Vegeta and Goku were locked together in a similar manner that their raging power would destroy the Earth.

And there wont be, that is not exactly a fair comparison.
Silver Surfer can both survive a planet explosion, and survive in space.
None of the Z fighters can do that, it would be committing suicide, murder suicide actually.
If we are are using that reasoning, that there is nothing to suggest they could easily destroy a planet, we can go even further than that and say they can't even easily destroy a continent, since there is nothing to suggest they can.
The Z fighters have three things going against them.
1. They can't survive a planet explosion or space.
2. Their not down with killings billions of people including their families
3. They're not trying to turn Earth into a waste land. (referring to buy there are no destruction of continents.)
^ These three things don't apply to the Silver Surfer, so he has no qualms about using his full power.

First, you guys are missing the point. Surfer and Morg were not trying to destroy the planet. They were caught in a deadlock and the energy from their struggle was enough to destroy the planet.
On top of all that, Vegeta didn't fully come around to being a true good guy until the very end. He was still killing innocent people in the last ac and not giving a flying fuck. So you're crazy if you're saying Vegeta wouldn't do something because he wanted to preserve life. The dude said on more than one occasion that he didn't give a fuck about the Earth or anyone on it.
And lol @ saying not wanting to cause wanton destruction and death doesn't apply to Surfer. The dude is basically Space Gandhi. He pretty much jobs in 90% of his fights because he doesn't like going all out and destroying people.
The Lonious Monk;6937007 said:That's a completely illogical response.
Surfer has reinvigorated stars, closed black holes, and manipulated a mass of energy that was stated to be powerful enough to destroy all life in the universe.
In other words, no one in the DBZ Universe comes anywhere close to Surfer in terms of power. Furthermore, you keep on using the feats of this one character and applying it to everyone. Let's assume that this guy is comparable to the higher Marvel tiers. How does that support what's being discussed in this topic? His feats aren't Goku's and Vegeta's feats. I didn't see that movie, but didn't Goku basically turn into a SSJ god by absorbing the energy from all the other Saiyans and still failed to definitively beat the enemy? Come on. Ya'll dudes are being ridiculous. I like Goku and Vegeta too, but these dudes are not fucking with the top tier Marvel heroes and they aren't packing the kinda power that would allow them to crush planets like peanut shells.
The Lonious Monk;6937142 said:Look we can go around this point all you want, but you can not provide one single solitary piece of evidence that shows that any of the Z fighters are that powerful. It just doesn't exist. You guys are performing all the mental gymnastics to try and support a point that can't be substantiated.
We've seen the Z fighters fighting at their very limits on more than one occasion and we've never see any kinda exertion that affected things on a planetary level. At most, they are able to affect things in their vicinity and that's it. Hell Buu was so powerful that he was busting holes in reality. He gave no fucks about the world or the people, so he had not qualms about letting his power flow, and yet he wasn't destroying the Earth with his excess energy either. They just aren't that strong, period.
veikuri;6938881 said:You do realize that Vegeta sacrificing his life wasn't able to destroy the planet?
If anyone is wondering why large attacks like the Kamehameha don't blow up Earth, and yet that small attack from buu was able to do it, it's most likely because the formation and delivery of the attack were designed differently, example: KHH is more like a wave, buu's blast was a ball of highly concentrated energy.
In simple terms, manga logic.
veikuri;6938881 said:You do realize that SSJ3 Goku easily got one shot by someone who can casually destroy planets?
All this holding back nonsense is pure fiction. Even IF the Z-fighters hold back, do you honestly believe that the villains do too? The only people who can destroy planets are Frieza and Buu, both using the Death Ball or some variant of it. Nothing else.
veikuri;6938954 said:I don't really consider Bills to be apart of the Z-Verse seeing as he made one appearance, in a movie at that. I didn't even plan on bringing up that movie until you started to.
veikuri;6938954 said:Unless they've shown they can destroy planets, then you don't say they can. It would be like giving everyone instant transmission because Goku can do it. It's like giving everyone the Spirit Bomb because base Goku can do it.
Argue feats, not powerscaling.
Alkinduz;6937151 said:fam, you dont know whom Im talking about from the Z uni, so how can you even compare? Or claim nobody in the z verse is fucking with top tier marvel?
its biasssss, thats right Im calling you out monk, youre a Marvel fanboy lol.
and for the record, Goku became the super saiyan god(lol) but changed back to regular Goku during the fight and peaked, Vegeta surpassed Goku in the flick. Overal the movie didnt make much sense and isnt worth watching lol
both Goku and Vegeta can destroy planets like its nothing as other posters have stated but for some reason you refuse to believe that shit. Acting like the cell saga never happened and shit.
BoldChild;6938365 said:It was actually explained in the manga why buu wasn't going as far as to destroy worlds before his kid buu transformation, there was no benefit in him destroying the world. When he was fat buu, he was focused on having fun, and obeying babidi. After that he was focused on fighting and absorbing z fighters. Kid buu was actually weaker than this version of Buu,(the one who absorbed gohan and co) the reason kid buu was so dangerous was because he gave no fucks about destroying the world, unlike the previous buus.

I never brought up the battle of the gods movie, that was someone else.

Not it's not, we know for a fact instant transmission is a skill Goku learned from an Alien race, and it's not something you just learn out of the blue, it has never been associated with his power level, and there have been no mentions of him teaching it to anyone.
Speed, power, and Ki(Ki is power level) on the other hand, we know for sure that those or associated with Power level, and typically, in ~95% all cases, if someone has a bigger power level than you, it means they are greater at all three.
One of the exceptions being SS 1.5 that Trunks and Vegeta were using when they were fighting agaisnt cell.
A persons ability to form energy blast is directly related to their level of Ki, so it's perfectly reasonable to assume that if Frieza is capable of forming a Ki blast strong enough to destroy a planet, someone with a higher power level (Ki) than his canform a more powerful Ki blast than him, with a lot more ease.
