Relationships in pony land DO have power. "Friendship is Magic" is literal, that's what Twilight is researching. It makes sense that love, which can be seen as stronger than friendship, is stronger than friendship magic.
Now, the EoH AREN'T friendship magic inherently, they're another source of magic that require friends to harness, so there's no need for the power of love to outdo the EoH, so we can get that out of the way.
Chrissy was a member of a race who could turn love into power, and she had the complete adoration of one of the strongest unicorns in the land who specialised in *repelling attacks*. Celestia attacked first, Chris made a defensive action powered by the love of an incredibly powerful defensive unicorn, so her defeat is valid, I think.
Later on, when Shiny Arm is rescued and they use the power of lurve to defeat everything, that's between, again, an incredibly powerful defensive unicorn and the literal goddess of love. If anybody can harness love for energy, it's a love goddess who both loves and is loved by the person she's harnessing it with. Chrissy, now cut off from that love, would be weaker and unable to fight back, and the minions never stood a chance.
Could they outdo the EoH? Fuck no. Could they outdo Celestia in a fair fight? Probably, Candyass is an alicorn too, just her powers are centered around love, not the sun.
Of course, this is me being autistic and desperately trying to justify it, it's still bullshit. |
