Even the combo of Burning Down the House and Heavy Weather which was explained by Emporio in the final chapter of Stone Ocean, "What a Wonderful World", and subsequently used to kill MIH Pucci is rendered useless. This is all I will talk about and I stand by my input "How can you even know? There was only a single fight with GER, against Diavolo. There have been several OP stands in later parts * Bohemian Rhapsody doesn't seem to have a limit as what character may be brought to life, If GER can bypass an ability that fixes an specific destiny then it should be possible to create a character that bypasses or ignores the Returing to zero ability; *Made In Heaven: their interaction is unknown, Pucci moved forward the entire universe, has GER shown anything that powerful? By lack of feats it's undetermined. *The World: said twice by the author to be the strongest and most powerful stand ever in part 6 *D4C Love Train: may redirect GER's actions as misfortune anywhere else *Tusk Act 4, it's power is infinite, it's suposed to last forever, till the end of times. It may be said that it's a partial inifinite, not an eternal one and thus be rewinded. But GER's RtZ is towards a relative zero... Can GER oppose such power. It's unknown. And for the BDTH+Weather Report part... this is Jojo, any and every single OP skill ever in this series has have some sort of weakness no matter how strong. Whether the weakness of a stand ability affects another stand is actually irrelevant."

Alright, fine. You got me there on a lot of accounts that I was oblivious to. So, I'll just clear up and say what the ten most powerful stands in the series are in no particular order. In my opinion.

Anubis. Which I think is criminally under-rated in it's power. Posessing a victim and in a fight as seen between Jotaro and "Black" Polnareff in part 3, makes it's posession progressively faster, stronger, more reactive and dangerous. It's "Potentially Strong" for a stand, but needs the right victim to posess.

Cream. Easy to explain. Since it can turn itself and Vanilla Ice into the void. Essentially rectifying Vanilla Ice's weakness to the sun. Making it and him invincible in a sense. Plus anything it touches is evaporated in it's "Void" state.

Killer Queen (DIU). The power of explosions is touchy no pun intended, but Killer Queen is justified because of it's explosive-oriented powers. The ability to turn any object into bombs in which their destructive force can be controlled from atomizing objects up to extremely violent explosions. KQ is also like an arsenal of stands that Kira used throughout the second half of part 4. Sheer Heart Attack which is nearly indestructible and relentlessly chases the target Kira assigned it to and Bites the Dust. I was stupid to ignore Bites the Dust which reverses time and can revert most "God-Like" stands I thought of back to their original status as depicted in ASB. This type of event too could easily have been pulled off if KQ was theoretically in parts 5 through 7.

Gold Experience Requiem. Return to Zero and otherwise unrivaled capabilities that few other stands match. As you said, Tusk 4 and D4C (Which I'll touch on) makes this a neck and neck comparison as I should have been more cognizant and open-minded about my input. Still, GER's power easily eclipses almost every stand in the series such as directly countering King Crimson's alternate realities. And if Giorno was pitted into situations into other parts with GER (Against MIH in Stone Ocean or D4C Steel Ball Run), it's useful in at least negating the effects of the powers partially I suppose, but given that stands and their powers become stronger in unique ways, certain match-ups would probably be stalemates at the most against GER.

Bohemian Rhapsody. Pretty much a stand based around the users imagination (My personal favorite of part 6 too). Imagine the most over-powered characters from fiction and have them fight at your command. It does take time to get going, but once it's fully active and under the right circumstances, it probably is the most powerful stand canonically.

Made In Heaven. Time Acceleration and the power to reset the universe once infinite speed is achieved may realistically best GER, but not Tusk 4 or D4C with Love Train. Yet, it's also consequential and few stands have the prowess to effectively "Survive" the univeral reset if Pucci was killed like the aformentioned GER and also Heaven's Door which is an honorable mention. Which Pucci was killed through the combined power of BTDH and Heavy Weather. Therefore indirectly causing the genocide of sorts to happen.

Tusk 4. Like many of the stands that I wish I was more wary about when I made my first response to this thread, Tusk 4 is easily one of the most broken stands in the series by itself. Infinite energy embedded through Golden Spin, the also infinite "Infinite Rotation" means these two abilities together making escaping Tusk 4 impossible if it simply touches you once. Plus, it can defy and control gravity and disintegrate it's victimis entirely.

D4C. This stand would probably be unstoppable if Tusk 4 never happened. It's abilities being some of the coolest and the most unfair the series presented. Dimension hopping which gives Valentine brief access to the multiverse and the ability to practically heal himself entirely. And then there's Love Train which basically makes Valentine invincible through his own pocket dimension as long as Lucy Steel remains close by or Valentine confronts Tusk 4 and proceeds to get clapped by Johnny.

So, in the end, and I thank you for shedding light on me about this discussion, there actually are a lot of stands that beat GER from just looking over the abilities. I always thought for the longest time that GER was the most powerful stand and that nothing could beat it. If I had to choose the stands above with the capability to match GER, I'll say Cream, Part 4 KQ, Bohemian Rhapsody, Tusk 4 and D4C.
