Theoretically speaking, Could Tirek survive a direct Nuclear explosion?

[Jerry246 32]

Presumable as he grows in power, the more magic he absorbs, conventional modern warfare would be rendered useless as he'd be able to tank shells, bombs, missiles, and bullets, thus forcing the use of the Nuclear option to be used against him.

So could Tirek be able to survive against a Nuclear Explosion? Especially if it's against a nuclear device comparable to the USSR's Tsar Bomba (100 megatons).

This sounds like the 'pony magical shields vs modern weaponry' conversations way back when.

Basically, the consensus is that people just don't understand the amount of energy involved in a bullet. Much less in the physics of a bullet. Even less in what is involved in nuclear fission/fusion.

The problem is that given how soft MLP's magical system is, any conversation is pointless, because you can always argue that magic can do whatever you want.

Um yes. Yes he could.

He's literally just the MLP version of Satan.

Of course he'd survive it.

Heck, he'd probably be able to tank a warhead shot point-blank at him if he was at his full strength.
