They're either massively nerfing Omniman's powers or the Guardians were a way more incredible force in this version of the story. It's going to create a weird disconnect if they continue the story to the point when other viltrumites can just completely wreck all of Earth's combined forces.

I think the guardians were buffed. And it makes sense. Omni man took them out because they were a credible threat to a viltrum takeover. If they get swept aside with ease it kinda doesn’t make sense why Omni man needed to take them out.

If you’re the strongest superheroes in the world you should at least give a single viltrumite a run for their money. Also I feel like Omni man held back. When he got serious. He got serious

If they were buffed then why did they take so long to beat the Mauler Twins? The Maulers aren’t that big of a threat

Took longer because They were saving people.
