outbalanced

Exceeded in weight

Outbalanced is the past tense of outbalance, meaning to exceed in weight, importance, or influence.

When one thing outbalances another, it tips the scales—literally or figuratively: The risks outbalanced any potential benefits.

The word suggests a comparison where one side proves heavier or more significant than the other.
