(Theory) Why Asgore really breaks your Mercy Button

[Stick]

As you all (probably) know, right before the fight with Asgore in the Neutral Run, Asgore breaks your Mercy Button. Well, I have a theory as to the real reason of him breaking it. You all know that you can only spare enemies when they no longer want to fight you. Well, Asgore never wanted to fight you at all. That would explain why he broke the button: if you had it, you could spare him and he wouldn’t fight you, and he can’t afford to fail at getting your soul.

Yes, this is most probably the case.

If he truly wanted to kill you, breaking teh fight button would make more sense.

interesting idea. but I think Asgore just do this to make the clear message: "In this fight is no mercy!" That´s because Asgore think there are no other options. I mean he already killed six humans or was involved in their deaths.

Asgore doesn’t believe he’s worth sparing.
