Poseidon by far is the best god of all. He has unique and brilliant powers and he had defeated the elder gods, which he won his domain by fighting magnificently. Poseidon was very involved in wars which would help the other gods surrounding him in favor, and he had an impactful precense while in his time.
Poseidon has the most astonishing powers of all of the gods. According to, "What are Poseidon's Powers," "Poseidon had complete control over any body of water, which includes the creatures that reside in them. He had the ability to create storms, earthquakes, floods, and droughts. Like many other gods, he had superhuman strength along with the capability to teleport and shapeshift," (Study). Poseidon's complete control over the water realm shows him as such the captivating god he proves to be.
Poseidon also defeated elder gods on his own, and had won his kingdom as the sea. According to, "The Myths and Legends of Poseidon," "a war ensued and Cyclopes made a magical trident for Poseidon that he used to defeat the elder gods and imprison them. The valiant brothers then drew lots to divide up the cosmos and Poseidon won the sea as his domain," (Mything Links). This shows how Poseidon fought for himself and others to become a strong, powerful god.
Poseidon may be considered to have some concerning traits to him, as the article, "Poseidon [mythology]," states, "Poseidon functioned as an antagonist of other gods usually not through direct malevolence but rather as a result of egotism and uncontrollable fits of anger," (Villian's Fandom). Despite this, Poseidon had fought off the dangerous elder gods, imprisoning them which in return saved many. The article, "Poseidon," expresses, "Poseidon would calm or guide the waves for people he favored, protecting them and speeding their way during voyages at sea," (Britannica). This shows that although Poseidon may contain some unwanted traits [as does any person], he also equips helpful traits and has a soft side to him.
Overall, Poseidon is greater than any other god in existence. For he had the most impressing powers among all the gods, and had won his domain by fighting and imprisoning elder gods which were dangerous to others. He has proved himself worthy in many ways, and proved that he was capable to become who he is today; Poseidon, the god of the sea, earthquakes and horses.
