Axonn and Brutaka are each worth a team of Toa by themselves, and together they once handled an army of Skadi warriors and only handicapped by the fact they were there to broker an alliance and thus not (intentionally) trying to kill any of them. What makes this even more impressive is that Zyglak are almost immune to Elemental Powers which Toa usually use as their primary attack. One particular example that stands out is Kopaka defeating three dozen Zyglak offscreen. Toa usually work in teams, but there are occasions where they manage to demolish small armies. While Real Life examples do exist, this is generally not a good idea in Real Life. Compare Gideon Ploy for a more literal one-man army.

It is usually affected by taking so many lives away. The damage to the psychological state of someone like this is not always considered. This is often justified by making the character a Super Soldier against mundanes, possessing far superior weaponry, or otherwise tremendously advantaged. Villains tend to underestimate this person at first, considering him Just One Man.
The One-Man Army does far more than pull their own weight. This one person is the army and can go around killing thousands of enemies. The leader will often say, " You and What Army?", then discover that the hero doesn't need one.
