The Superhero Database Classification number, or SHDB Class, is a number that represents the overall 'power' of a character. All traits of a character are used for calculating the Classification.
What it DOESN'T mean
This doesn't mean that a higher class would always beat a lower class character. But the bigger the difference in Class is, the more obvious it is who'll win in a fight.
How is this calculated
( INT^1.3 + (STR*0.5 )^2 + (SPE*0.5)^2 + DUR^1.6 + (POW + (SPS*SPL))^2 + COM^1.8 ) ^ TIER
Super Power Score and Level
Every Super Power has a score (SPS) that is used to calculate the Class. Each Super Power also has 3 levels (SPL). The level is set when connecting that Super Power to a character. The level determines the final score, of the Super Power, being used in the calculation.
The Hulk would never get near him before a dozen assassins converged around Betty, Rick Jones, Tony, Natasha, or whoever else Bruce cared about at the moment. And if the Hulk was too angry to care about hostages, Wilson would use his thousands of connections to simply vanish into the city and work out a way to get the Hulk off his back, probably tricking him into going after someone else.
“That is the secret to power—to pit your enemies against each other, while yourself remaining, all the while, untouched,” the Kingpin once said.
Matching the Hulk against the Kingpin would be a disaster for the Hulk, and an even worse one for whoever Fisk happened to want eliminated instead. It’s a good thing for the world that Fisk considers the Hulk too unstable to make a habit of controlling.
