Most Destructive Wars in Fiction

I do want to point out that non-war timetravel also erases timelines on a regular basis. In some time models, at least.

Adding to the Time War, by the end of it all Time Lords in the multiverse were dead, the Daleks had functional weapons, that they deployed, that erased galactic clusters from existence, and the Time Vortex itself was being damaged. The war was quite literally hell, across the multiverse.

Right, one species was wiped out cross-universes- or as it turned out, not really- galactic clusters were destroyed, and the time vortex was damaged.

Certainly big, but some are bigger.

In Marvel, the entire populations of most universes across the multiverse were destroyed, and a small fraction of the populations of a few were saved. The Beyonders were wiped out. All of the multiverse was reduced to a small mini-universe.

Well, see above for other examples :)

And the Time War's biggest weapons seem to have been developed, but not deployed.

The Time War had universes being ripped apart at every point in their history and put back together again. And by the end the Time Lords and Daleks were merely the top dogs, as plenty of races/factions created by the War sprung up. One almost ate Davros, IIRC.

But this is all moot since only the Doctor and Davros remember all of it now. The Master left early and the Daleks have been seemingly mind-whammied since Caan was destroyed. The Time Lords destroying magic has had more repurcassions. I suppose you could argue that the Doctor is who he is because of the Time War, and we know that the Universe is still there because of the doctor, but...yeah, I think that's stretching it a bit.

Hm, speaking as someone who only knows a little of DT, this sounds plausible. How much happens there?

Literally every good/evil conflict in existance, fiction and reality, is Gan duking it out with the Crimson King. Taken in context, that's a lot of fighting, since an atom on the lower levels of the Tower is a universe IIRC. Taken liberally, that's every conflict in every work of fiction ever. But even taking it in context, that is a LOT of fighting. The repercussions of which being that there are people willing to end EVERYTHING just to stop it.
 
Exalted Primordial War? Didn't it destroy 90% of everything on a conceptual level so not even an idea of the destroyed things could exist anymore?
 
The war between Prospit and Derse is a multiversal war that results in both the creation and destruction of every universe in its own cosmology.

That's pretty hard to top.
 
Crisis on Infinite Earths antimatter wave. Infinity minus number of dead universes equals... Five or six, IIRC, that then got smushed together.
 
What about interpreting the question the OP stated as relative to the setting the war was in?
