Asgore can easily destroy the human if he wanted to

Yes but he's holding back

Exactly

There are two encounters in which your options in an encounter are destroyed, Asgore being one and our old pal Asriel being the other. The fact that his ability was mimicked by a literal god means a lot.
I'm mentioning this mostly because no one else did.
Also, the statistics he has (Atk and Def 80) are reduced from his guilt.

didnt undyne once say that asgore dodged all of her attacks?

Yeah he could dodge too but he chooses not to when he fights because he doesn’t want to kill you

Asgore also has the power to kill 6 other humans and if he wanted to could have absorbed the souls in the battle and even if he didnt if he used his full power he would have killed frisk on the spot

the reason asgore died in one hit in genocide is because he thought you were a fellow monster and so it would have caught him off guard and been a betrayal kill

Yeah he was totally unprepared for fight and as you read in the librarby the less a monster wants to fight the easier they are to kill

Yes, FINALLY someone said it!

Sans is cleverer because he dodges and uses strategies that prevent the human from being able to fight back or catch them off guard. However, the moment that he isn't paying attention, he's knocked down with a single hit. The only reason we die from his attacks is because of karma, which is our fault. (I have not fought Sans, but I've watched enough playthroughs and read enough lore to know his fight.)

Asgore is stronger because it takes many hits to take him down, but he doesn't put his all into it. If Asgore decided to use more of his strength, and not allow us to recover when we're at 1 HP, we would absolutely be dead. I must have died to Asgore at least 5 times even though he was holding his strength back. On the genocide route, however, the human takes Asgore down with a single hit, but that's a different story.

To sum it up, Sans works smarter not harder, and Asgore is scary.

Exactly like ASGORE has to be really strong since you can get his soul just like you could get Toriel’s soul but you don’t for some reason both of them are holding back when you fight them because they don’t truly want to kill you
Sans would literally be the easiest enemy if you did not have the karma

haha karma go brrr

In genocide you one shot asgore, but sans is the hardest boss in the game.

Well that is because he is taken off guard

YES
I'm so glad someone said it
