Sean That was obviously a huge moment bc I don't think that's ever been done before, that showed us just a little bit of what a true alpha can do. Ummm...not to put you down or anything, but pretty sure that this was only meant to be an indication of Scott's growth as an Alpha, not really a True Alpha thing at all.

And before you say,"but this has never been done before by such and such", just want to point out, we've only seen this particular method used to kill one werewolf, a Beta no less, and he was really shaky and focused on suppressing his wolf side on a full moon. It has nothing to do with True Alphas, as far as we viewers are concerned, until an Alpha is shown to be defeated by a similar attack.

Sorry, guys. Idk man, I think there's something special about True Alphas, Deucalion, the strongest Alpha, we have seen to date...was scared of Scott, and his potential. maybe Scared isn't the best word...but he knew Scott was becoming an Alpha, and was worried of the "potential threat" So Maybe you're right, most alphas should be able to resist the wire.

but I do believe True Alphas are the strongest Alphas that exist. even though we have no proof. it's a rarity.

and like I said, Deucalion the strongest Alpha we have seen so far, was concerned of the Alpha, Scott would become.

So I semi-agree with you about how people shouldn't be surprised that an Alpha can resist a thermal wire.

but I still believe that a True Alpha, is the most powerful. if I'm proven wrong so be it. but I'm gonna wait and see what happens to Scott, by the season's end. I don't disagree that, based on what we've seen/heard (mostly what Deucalion/a few others implied), a True Alpha has the potential to be very powerful. But since we've seen no sign of that, I'm going on a case by case basis.

Meaning, is this something that's been done by Alphas before in show, is this something we can compare to other Alpha's actions in show, or does this surpass what others have done? Until we see something undeniably, extraordinarily powerful from Scott, my little rating system seems to be the go.
