Questions & Mysteries Will Oda ever give us a direct answer for Zoro vs Law?

Law's role in the story is finished, he's irrelevant now, there is no EOS Law, at best "EOS Law" gets shown as a washed up nobody reading a newspaper about Luffy defeating the WG and cheering him on

Right now Zoro/Law are comparable, but Zoro will only get stronger, Law won't

you don't think he'll be involved in fighting the World Government?

him being one of the few D's makes it obvious he'll fight in the final war. he'll definitely be involved in fighting the Gorosei/Imu since their immortality likely originates from the Op Op no Mi.

he also has beef with Blackbeard now so he could get involved in that arc

No.

Their immortality is clearly not just because of the Ope, but even if it were, what does that have to do with Law specifically?

He doesn't have beef with Blackbeard, Blackbeard beat his ass and then took what he wanted, that's the end, there isn't some lingering unresolved conflict between them lol.

........... He literally wants to uncover the true history. The ones who are covering the true history are the World Government. Not to mention he's a D and it was emphasized recently that the D are very, very important. I think it's clear he'll be involved. Maybe not fighting the Gorosei like some theorize but he certainly won't only appear "reading a newspaper of Luffy's victories".

It appears that the Gorosei aren't immortal because of the op op no mi, but Imu was implied to be by Ivankov. He probably shares the immortality with them somehow.

and you really think Law doesn't have beef with the guy that destroyed his ship, defeated his crew, stole his poneglyphs and was about to kill him?

he's too popular for Oda to abandon at this point lol

He may want that, but it doesn't mean he'll accomplish it, there have to be losers, people who couldn't accomplish their dreams, that's Law and Kidd. And Robin's dream is also to uncover the true history, and she's infinitely more important than Law, Law's dream will probably get achieved, but he won't be the one to do it.

If Law was going to be even half as important as you want him to be, he'd have appeared in the big double page spread of future relevant characters.

Ivankov theorized, but he has no way of knowing. Also, unless you believe Imu can't regenerate like the Gorosei can, then it makes no sense for his immortality to be because of the Ope, which is specifically unaging.

Law lost bro, he's done, he doesn't get a round 2 or a come back.

He won't accomplish it but he'll still learn about it lol. He has the plot thread with Corazon. He's not a Kidd, he's more important. He can still learn about his dream after Robin uncovers it, Kidd can't accomplish his dream because of Luffy.

If Law was going to be even half as important as you want him to be, he'd have appeared in the big double page spread of future relevant characters.
i didn't claim he'd be important as those 12 lmao, i'm saying he'll be part of the Final War instead of just reading about it in the newspaper

unrelated but it's possibly he can't regenerate. It seems like he "ate/absorb" the attack from Sabo instead of getting hit by it and regenerating/transforming. Though I do think he does. His regeneration could come from a fruit, and the agelessness from the op op.

Law lost bro, he's done, he doesn't get a round 2 or a come back.
he'll never be "portrayed" as a Luffy peer again or as a "superstar big player" again, but he's certainly not done. Oda won't discard one of the most popular characters

you're literally arguing Law will do nothing for the rest of the series while I'm arguing he'll at least play a role in the Final War and future arcs, even if it's just something as fighting someone. Wonder which one is more likely?

Law is so done that Oda didn't even bother to remind the reader that he's one of the few Ds left..

oh wait

SkySanji's entire persona is to piss off any popular character's fandom. Admirals, Zoro, Law etc
it's entertaining sometimes, but in instances like this or the time he said Koby's more likely to have CoC than Blackbeard it just comes across as stupid.
 
I think the answer is that master swordsmanship is defined as the ability to cut what you desire and protect what you desire.

The WSSM has the greatest swordsmanship aka the strongest sword skill aka the ability to cut everything they desire.

Because Law doesn’t focus on cutting, but rather shockwaves, he isn’t Zoro’s rival, even if he is still a swordsman. Shockwaves aren’t swordsmanship, even if Law uses a sword to do it.
 
He already did.

Due to Zoro’s dream about wanting to become the WSS and Law wanting to become pirate king, Pinlolo is bound to be below Law eos.

Law is a devil-fruitman
