Right About Everything
Cadance, a nice but pretty inconsequential pretty pink pony princess. Certainly the least powerful and least important of all the Princesses, right?
Wrong. Behind that pleasant demeanor is a well of unmatched power, far beyond any of her peers. I will now begin to list the reasons why Princess Cadance is the most powerful of all the Princesses.
Remember Sombra? Going by the comics, he has defeated every single one of the Princesses in combat. But not Cadance. No, instead Cadance is the only pony to ever defeat Sombra one on one, using the Crystal Heart to outright vaporise him. She is also the only character to ever outright destroy her opponent, no redemption rainbows for Cadance!
Even before that, she kept up a barrier over the entire Crystal Empire for days, without sleeping or eating. It was in this state that she did all that above!
Remember Chrysalis? She’s defeated Celestia twice, and taken over the whole of Equestria in but a few short days. Well Cadance and Shining Armor are responsible for the single most powerful magical attack in the show, where they created a blast that not only distinguished between friend and foe, it covered an entire city and launched both Chrysalis and her entire army over the horizon at high speed. Nothing Tirek and super-powered Twilight did comes anywhere close (and I theorise that Cadance provided most of Twilight’s power there).
Should I even mention that she was stealing two parters from Twilight long before that scrub Starlight Glimmer?
Discord might think he’s high and mighty, but one sneeze from the Tatzlwurm and he was out for the count. A pretty dangerous creature huh? Well Cadance fought it head on, and came out without a scratch!
Everyone talks about Celestia and Twilight’s fancy magic, but have you noticed Cadance is also a mage? She hides it well, but note that she’s also a fan of Star Swirl the Bearded. And in “The Crystaling” who is it that Twilight consults over the spell to restore the Crystal Heart? Not Celestia, not Starlight, its Cadance! Twilight even shows her the spell she’s made to make sure she hasn’t made any mistakes, and Cadance instantly reads it over and states that it seems ok. Proof that she’s perfectly capable of keeping up with a master mage like Twilight!
She spawned the dark goddess of unbridled destruction Flurry Heart, the first ever alicorn born of mare, and an infant packing more power than most adult unicorns. Even with Flurry’s powers sealed, Twilight Sparkle herself proved unable to fully contain this infant’s rampage in “A Flurry of Emotions”. Clearly she takes after her mother.
It took years of study under Celestia for Twilight to be worthy of becoming an alicorn. Celestia turned Cadance into one five minutes after they first met. Celestia knows talent when she sees it.
The books also reveal that Cadance knows the name of every pony in the Crystal Empire. Twilight is forced to admit that she doesn’t know the name of every pony in ponyville, which is less than half the size!
She married Shining Armor, who is clearly the most attractive Stallion on the show.
So in summary… Cadance is OP, pls nerf.
