The Martian vs. Nouctera
The Martian
Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he’s sure he’ll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive—and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. Chances are, though, he won’t have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plain-old “human error” are much more likely to kill him first. But Mark isn’t ready to give up yet. Drawing on his ingenuity, his engineering skills—and a relentless, dogged refusal to quit—he steadfastly confronts one seemingly insurmountable obstacle after the next. Will his resourcefulness be enough to overcome the impossible odds against him?

It is quite funny how this guy was one of the strongest kaiju for a 1-2 years but got instantly nerfed to the bottom of the meta in post dmca. The nerf it really deserved. Most find this guy too weak, I say leave it. Or better yet rework it to something similar to faulerre because currently Nouctera is too unstable for a big rebalance. It can either get so much better, or so much worse. -MrAz
