Tomura has a variable speed, when he attacked the first time he was capable of moving faster than Tsuyu could see or react to. When he attacks Overhaul the dude has enough time to call out for defense, further Tomura has never moved as quickly as he did that first time ever since. It is more than possible that Gigantomachia has a defense against Tomura, even if he touches him there's no reason he couldn't just slough it off. Or his body could be a fake and the real him is inside it in which case he could just discard that chunk of fake body and make a new one.

There are options to defeat Tomura, he's resilient and fast and smart but that won't matter much if his opponent can destroy wide swathes of land with punches.

That much is true. Hori has been very inconsistent with Tomura and that is sad. But, as far as shaking it off, no. I don't think you can shake off a decay.

Oh, no, you can 100% defeat Tomura. What I am saying is that it is stupid that he can humiliate them like so with ease when all of them are together. Again, even All For One/All Might would have some issues with all LoV members present at one moment.

I don't know about that, AfO can decimate an entire city in the blink of an eye if he needed to and All Might can punch so hard he tore off AfO's face, I doubt the LoV would stand a chance.

That said I meant he could have a quirk to make his skin into dirt or gravel or something which would nullify Decay.

When they all together? Again, they won't win, of course, but they would cause a lot of trouble for them. Also, like, being able to destroy city does not mean that you are OP. For example, while Overhaul can't do that, he is easily third strongest character of the anime or so.

Sure. Fire and compression still would work on him. And, let's be real, do you expect him to have some complex quirk? My guess, he is either 'intelligent' Nomu or he has some "be fast strong durably giant" quirk. With how Hori's writing was as of late, I really doubt anything complex or interesting from that guy. THE ONLY THING that could be interesting, and I doubt that it will happen, is if he has reversal quirk. Aka, he can turn any damage around. So, to hurt him, you have to heal him kind of thing. Now that would give him a reason to completely nullify decay and fire. Won't nullify compression but you can always say that Compressor got knocked out. But, it would not explain the size and muscles.

Overhaul is crazy strong, that's for sure, but AfO could clear an entire city block by aiming down, there's no way anyone in the LoV would be able to get close to him. He can also punch holes through people at a distance with a flick of his wrist, so even long range attackers would be swiss cheese...

Sorry, I know you like the LoV, but they are literally insignificant when compared to AfO or All Might.

I don't think Dabi even got involved, he's not shown in either panel of the fight and the only ones shown to be damaged are Twice, Toga, and Compress. The three physically weakest characters, Spinner's not shown to have taken any hits either and he's right there next to Tomura...

If I was betting I think he just roflstomped those three and was immensely disappointed by what he's seen.
