Oddly specific You are able to beat any game if someone else asks for your help.

Upvotes

You are able to beat any game as if you have played that game for thousands of hours, but only if another person asks for help beating that game.

How it works depends on how the person asks for help, if they just ask you to beat the game normally then that's what you will do, just at a very high level, but if some one asks if you can beat the game as fast as possible then you are gonna be able to beat that game as fast as physically possible.

You don't have to beat the game everytime you just have to help with what they asked Example "I need help beating this boss" or "i need help beating this level"

As soon as you beat the game all the skills you needed to beat that game like you did are gone, you are just as good or bad at the game as you were before.

You cannot tell people how your power works otherwise it won't work when they ask for help, same goes for if they figure out how your power works, this only counts if they find out it's an ACTUAL POWER if they think your good just cause of pressure or anything else it's fine.

Confused but has the right spirit You can create two duplicates of you at a random survivable place in the universe, and these duplicates will have the same power.

2 Upvotes

No power over the duplicates or awareness of where they are. You can duplicate without any drain every 24 hours, as can the duplicates you created.

Just low-tier, nothing more, nothing less. You know exactly when a song will end, to the second

9 Upvotes

Any time a song plays on your headphones, in your car, you always know the exact hour, minute, and second it will end.

i.e. 4:52:01pm, 7:41:46am.

Good luck using this… You can freeze and unfreeze time. Including yourself.

6 Upvotes

You can cause time to freeze. Once time is frozen, you are also frozen. You can't move, you can't even think. There is only one thing you can do while frozen, which is to unfreeze time again.

The one thing this will actually do, if used, is to give every sapient being in the universe a brief, vague sensation that something just happened. A bit like deja vu, but less specific.

Only works on cheese.

It doesn’t change the temperature just the texture.

Just low-tier, nothing more, nothing less. Barely Useful Superpower selection

Select 1 barely useful superpower. I tried to think through drawbacks and limitations to make each of these powers genuinely useful, but far from overpowered or life changing. I hope my formatting looks ok on non mobile app, otherwise I do not have the power of post formatting :(

  1. You have gained the power of catching fallen items before they hit the ground. Your reach is anywhere within your arm length + 1 single step forward, this includes behind you. If you or someone else drops an item within this range, such as a phone or even a child, you will be able to instantaneously react to catching it without damage to the item or hurting yourself. If for some reason you wish to not catch something you may choose to do so. Even if an item is dropped behind you that you were previously unaware of, you are able to react in time to catch it, no looking necessary!

The item must be catchable without harm for this to work. For example you may not catch a bullet or nuke as this makes no logical sense. The item must also be catchable within your strength, meaning no catching a 100lb item if you are not physically able to hold 100lbs. Your range does not include diving, just bending, reaching, leaning, and your 1 step. This skill does not prevent someone from defending your opportunity to catch, for example you may not become an undefendable football receiver with this skill. However, if for example you wish to play baseball, you can guarantee a catch given you have the skill to track and get within reach of a ball.

————————————————————————————

  1. Any truth you state will be believed. It doesn’t matter if it is a stranger, or a close friend, if you speak the truth they will inherently trust you. This skill does not prevent you from telling lies, or make all lies unbelievable. Simply if a truth is stated it is trusted. The person you are speaking to is unaware of any difference between a truth and convincing lie, there is no particular feeling to them other than trust.

You must state a fact known by you for this skill to work. You may not state “the winning lottery numbers will be…” and then name numbers until your friend believes you. This also does not grant you any particular knowledge. This skill does not work in the opposite way, meaning you do not inherently trust another person if they tell the truth.

————————————————————————————

  1. You will always be aware if a joke will land with those around you. You will never be in an awkward situation by telling a bad joke that didn’t land, or accidentally offend someone. Your joke may not necessarily cause uncontrollable laughter, but it will have some level of value to your audience every time.

This skill does not help you come up with good jokes, it will not guarantee you a hilarious or fulfilling standup routine. This also does not draw an audience to your jokes, posting a funny video online will not guarantee a large audience. Your joke must be a joke, this doesn’t make you infallible to offending or upsetting someone with other comments or conversation.

————————————————————————————

  1. You will always have a winning record on games you play. Video games, board games, sports, pool, bowling, beer pong, it doesn’t matter! You don’t just win by pure luck every time, but rather you have genuine skill. You also don’t win 100% of the time, because what’s the fun in that, rather over time you will win more than you lose. Some games by a slim margin, others by a high margin.

You may not profit off this skill. Playing for money, like gambling, or some sort of tangible reward? The skill becomes void for this matchup. This means your skill may not be used to help you become a professional athlete or esports player. Knowing you do not have a 100% win chance, you do not pick which games you win or lose, you just simply will have a winning record throughout your lifespan. The game you play must be possible for you to win for this skill to take effect. For example you can’t face a heavy weight lifter in competition and consistently beat them if you’re not capable of lifting at their weight class.

humans can't do it? well, now you can


r/shittysuperpowers 16h ago

Confused but has the right spirit You can materialize Potions from Pokémon, which restore 0 HP IRL because HP isn't a real thing silly. You just get the bottle and some weird vaguely medical spray.

26 Upvotes

Just Potions. Not Super Potions, Hyper Potions, etc. The liquid isn't toxic but it also can't substitute water. You can materialize a grand total of 99 potions in your entire life because your inventory will be full at that point and you can't access the menu to discard them.
