====Mutual Nullification==== If an All-or-Nothing effect comes into tangible contact with another All-or-Nothing effect, they mutually nullify each other's effect: *In her final fight against [[March]], [[Foil]]'s charged weapon conflicted with March's charged weapon. Both weapons lost their charge and became normal swords after contacting each other.<ref name="II12.x eConflict" /> *When Foil fired a charged bolt at the [[Blaster]] from [[Lord of Loss]]'s group, his crystal conflicted with her bolt. Both objects mutually lost their effects and thus shattered from the force behind their collision.<ref name="II11.7 eConflict" /> *[[Clockblocker]]'s power conflicted with [[Hookline]]'s chain. Clockblocker experienced some backlash after failing to apply his power; Hookline's chain lost its effect and became a normal chain.<ref name=clockline>Clockblocker hurried to Hookline’s side. A non-living weapon that would serve the same purpose-<br><br>The effect as they made contact wasn’t the same purpose. Clockblocker winced, hand pulling away, and the chain went completely limp.<br><br>''Power conflict''. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2020/03/03 Excerpt] from [[Last 20.3]]</ref> Note that the chain regained its effect in short time.<ref>Hookline and Disjoint were at the ready, Hookline grabbing Damsel and pulling her out of the way of the spikes, while Disjoint reached out with dismembered limbs and shoved capes out of the way. - [[Last 20.7]]</ref> *Foil's power versus the [[Siberian]] is the classic scenario where an unstoppable force strikes an immovable object.<ref>'''Belial666:''' Harm is harm. Since there doesn’t seem to be a limit to what powers can actually do, think of an effect that could trump other effects. For example, a sword that cuts ANYthing is something that has occasionally appears in fantasy. Not the “absurdly sharp edge” version but the “name the object of objection and it’s cut” version.<br>Swing it at someone and you could cut off a limb. Or, you could cut off their will to fight. Or their strength. Or their ability to interact with the world. Or anything else of them you could name at all.<br><br>'''Wildbow:''' But if you’re talking in that respect, you might as well be asking what happens when the unstoppable force strikes the immovable object. You might be talking about exactly this if you’re referring to flechette’s arrows vs. Siberian. - Comment by Wildbow on [[Prey 14.2]]</ref><!-- https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/09/08/prey-14-2/#comment-4085 --> The Siberian touching an object frozen by Clockblocker is an identical scenario.<ref name="26.5 eConflict" /> Their conflict causes the following to occur: **As the Siberian is entirely an All-or-Nothing effect, it pops (i.e., flickers out of existence).<ref name="26.5 eConflict" /><ref name="26.b eDartSiberian">Up until the moment Foil, still screaming, using her augmented sense of timing to measure the length of each scream, stepped around the monochrome field he’d cast just in front of her. She threw a handful of darts through the Siberian and Gray Boy’s head as his back was turned.<br><br>The Siberian flickered out of existence as Gray Boy collapsed.<br><br>Neither reappeared, healthy or otherwise. - [[Interlude 26b]]</ref> **Clockblocker's object unfreezes. Forces such as gravity can once again affect the object.<ref name="26.5 eConflict" /> **Foil's charged object becomes a normal object but continues its trajectory.<ref name="26.b eDartSiberian" /> *If Foil's charged object theoretically comes into contact with Clockblocker's frozen object, they presumably nullify each other's effect so that their interaction effectively becomes a question on whether Foil's normal object can pierce Clockblocker's normal object.<ref>'''[Spoilers Possible] Could one of Flechette's projectiles...'''<br>...pierce an object or person that's been Clockblocked?<br><br>'''gardenofjew:''' I'd guess yes because the following happens in the story:<br>time-frozen objects and Siberian will cancel each out-- Siberian 'pops', the object unfreezes. We see this in the S9000 arc.<br>A Foil! dart passes through a Siberian (and pops it) during the S9000 arc.<br>Since Foil>Siberian and Siberian=time-frozen, Foil>time-frozen<br><br>'''Wildbow:''' More or less. - Conversation with Wildbow on [https://redd.it/3xjc5q Reddit]</ref> *If [[Ashley Stillons]]' blast theoretically comes into contact with the Siberian, the Siberian pops<ref name="SBashley e1" /> and the All-or-Nothing effect of her blast is presumably nullified.
