If in DC universe then the borg would also attract yellow rings because of the fear the borg generate. But it would belong to a cube not a drone. Creativity is limited so the Borg would probably have just a yellow shield. But since lantern rings at full charge can blast planets. We have to say they can overwhelm standard borg shields with ease. So only yellow cubes would be able to really deal with the lantern corps.
If it's on land Lanterns can just punch the ground from under them and bury the Borg.
Would that really stop the drones or just slow them however?
They have infinite strenght?

Infinite strength would mean it did not slow them down. But they do not need to breath it seems. They have multiple small tools. So any borg simply trapped instead of crushed will eventually be able to dig their way out Hence slowed down. Dropping a large solid rock on them instead of dropping them into a mélange of soil sounds more certain.

Great now I feel like I am arguing throwing just an engine block instead of a whole car. . . :lol:

Kinda has a set time. Better to carve out granite chunks for Operation Anvil.
Now go opposite. How do the Borg have a chance on the ground?
