Quote from Nish

The Predator ----> Going against the tide on this because I think the rest of the Predators will show up as they do in the comic cooks when they feel their guy is being outmatched.

Except I particularly stated that calling allies is not allowed. Although it can be justified that that's how they operate as a race. I would be 50-50 on it.


Anyways...

Youmu Konpaku. I don't know. Sometimes Smile's joke noms come through, sometimes they dont. Luck of the draw I guess.

Next one was a tough one. But I think there is a sliver of a chance that Gregor Clegane, The Mountain would pull it off. Yes, he's dumber than Conan. But he's not exactly dumb-as-bricks-dumb. If we're talkin' strategy and warfare, probably. Conan would probably cut this nobody down easy. But we're talkin' first time meeting arena combat with no disadvantage or advantage to both sides. This was a very tough call and I say it'd still go either way, but Ser Gregor is no stranger to this kind of whatever it takes attitude and despite not possessing the smarts, he's very driven and stubborn. Conan wouldn't also have to resort to the same deviousness Ser Martell had to resort in order to poison the Mountain, at least not on the first meeting.

Hey, I wanted Adam to bag it too but Isaac Netero is this easy. No amount of augmentations can beat the nigh-superhuman feats of this guy. Sometimes, Smile just gets it right. Also, he's a cool old guy. And in anime, cool old guys are the best.

This last one is a very very tough one like the Conan fight but I think for all the cool things he can do, The Predator still ekes out in the end. From reading into the Handyman, it just feels like he has to play the waiting game while the Predator can afford to. The difference is, the Predator adapts faster and The Handyman himself is riddled with the resistance of being a wicked being. To the Predator, his target would be nothing more than the best kind of prey and won't be able to hold itself back.


Block B Results:
Youmu Konpaku beats Armin Arlert (11-1)
Conan The Barbarian beats The Mountain (7-3)
Isaac Netero thumps Adam Jensen (11-1)
The Handyman beats The Predator (8-3)

==================

Rand al' Thor, like the Jensen fight was a clear cut win. I wanted Lucas to last a single round but that just ain't gonna happen.

This was pretty even to me. I know Frank West has taken on alotta psychopaths in his career. But Robert Mccall is the real deal. Also I like to think every nut Frank fights never actually happened and what we see is a gamey sequence of events that actually shadows a rather mundane solution. Half these psychos can actually hurt themselves and isn't really a true measure of Frank's capabilities. Even his MVC capabilities are lacking. Robert can freeze time with his mind. And take down any assessed threat within minutes of his OC-addled mind. He's also no stranger cliche tactics and subverts them every damn time.

I'll have to pass this next one. I don't know Campione! enough to decide.

Phoenix Wright. Like, I even have to explain >_>

Block O Results:
Rand al' Thor beats Lucas (6-3)
The Equalizer Robert Mccall beats Frank West (7-2)
Kenpachi Zaraki beats Kusanagi Goudou (7-2)
Phoenix Wright beats Light Yagami (9-1)

Happy Voting.

The T-Rex
Shulk - T-Rex has a big head and little arms, Shulk can think this fight through. Master?

Toothless
Xigbar - He totally has this, not only can he pepper Toothless from any angle he pleases, he can also manipulate the surrounding space to seriously mess with the Nightfury.

Barry Allen/The Flash
Natsu - I would've given Barry the win but recent revelations say that Natsu has a lot of durability and firepower, unless Barry just throws him into a frozen lake.

Rorshach - This ain't kayfabe.
Santino Morella

==================

Undecided

Reisen - If this was a spellcard duel, Sora might've stood a chance as he's enough of a gamer to know bullet hell when he sees it. Unfortunately, since this is a combat scenario, he would quickly succumb to Reisen's abilities upon mere eye contact. She can also use her abilities to create hallucinations that make engaging her much harder, and she's a former soldier for the Lunarians.
Sora

Kirito
Jackie Estacado - His abilities overpower Kirito's.

Undecided until Error elaborates

Shit wait, The Equalizer was in the last round? Aw man, should've read it much more better..

T-Rex
Shulk
Well, he is a person that can think, so he can think of a strategy to kill the T-Rex, it might take a long while to kill the large motherfucking T-Rex but i think he wins this one.

Toothless
Xigbar
As much as i like Toothless because of his cuteness, Xigbar is a fucking gunslinger, i mean those kinds of people are what mainly takes down dragons, and plus, he's a master gunslinger, how can a dragon beat that if it can't even go close enough to spit fire?

Barry Allen/Flash
Natsu
This one is a tough one to be honest, but i think the flash can beat Natsu, i mean he has superspeed, he can outrun Natsu or run away from his fires, Also thr fact that he's so fast, he can either supersonic punch his face and knock Natsu in one blow (i think by the speed of Flash on the supersonic punch, he wont get burned that much) Or he can run super fast and time travel to the time where Natsu was just born and kill him.

Rorshach
Santino Morella
I think that a tactical, improvising, quick thinking guy can outsmart a westler, he is also brutal and uses his surroundings to his advantage so that's another thing.

==========================

Ash William
Insanity Wolf
Alright, im just gonna say this first but why the fuck is there a meme here? Anyway it's an easy win for Ash here, a chainsaw motherfucking hand with a sawnoff.

Reisen
Sora
I think this is gonna be a fight of manipulation, but Reisen will absolutely win here, she can manipulate light and has an eye that is just like a "Sharingan" from Naruto.

Kirito
Jackie Estacado
Dark powers are just too OP, i mean he has summoning, healing, creating, superhuman strength and speed skills.
Fuck no.

Zidane
Redd Heart
Imagination as a weapon? Her imaginations are dark and evil? Zidane is fucked tbh

Ash Williams

Zidane
Redd Heart

Redd Heart: Hails from Wonderland but not as you know it. She is an heir to the throne and much like her kin and protagonist of the series, Alyss Heart, she can use imagination. Again not as you know it.

Whatever she imagines becomes real but not without limitations. She cannot imagine a living thing but can imagine weapons for herself. If she wished several bombs flying her opponent's way, it will be done. There are differences, a yin and yang with imagination and as you can guess, she takes the side of Black Imagination. The difference is that her creations are manifested from dark thoughts and emotions, something she has an abundance of, instead of joy and good memories. Her dress is made of carnivorous roses that can slither like snakes and bite. She also carries a scepter that can easily turn into anything with the use of her power.

She has a large ego, narcissistic, wishes to rule over all imagination, intelligent and kill her niece, Alyss. She is admirable, charismatic, resourceful, fearless and a capable villain. She trained her own squad in Black Imagination. She isn't afraid of joining up with her sister when the need arises and knows when she is outmatched. In every way, however, she is very much easily killed if you get behind her power.

The T-Rex - T-Rex only needs to see him, and he's dead pretty much. Brawns > Brains in this case.
Shulk

Toothless
Xigbar - What is Toothless gonna do in the face of space manipulation and and endless hail of bullets? Not much. Plus Xigbar's a bitch to beat honestly. I consider him one of the hardest bosses in KH2.

==================

Ash Williams - At least pick a more... stronger? meme like chuck norris or smth.
Insanity Wolf

Reisen - This isn't even a question, really.
Sora

Kirito
Jackie Estacado - Everything he has beats Kirito. One sided massacre much?

The T-Rex
Shulk
Shulk has fought way more powerful things than a T-Rex before. He's defeated large high-tech robots and monsters before so it doesn't seem like it would be a problem. Also, his future sight would most likely prevent the T-Rex from ever being able to finish him off.

Toothless
Xigbar

Barry Allen/The Flash
Natsu
Even in his early stages The Flash was really powerful. In the TV show he managed to go back in time by running so I'm gonna say he wins.

Rorshach
Santino Morella
He's too good at fighting and too smart to lose this battle.

==================

Ash Williams
Insanity Wolf

Reisen
Sora
Sora's good at games but certainly not a combatant.

Kirito
Jackie Estacado

Zidane
Redd Heart
idk any of these characters so I'm not gonna vote.

The T-Rex
Shulk - He seems capable <:D

Toothless
Xigbar - This guy's a long range fighter and can barrage attacks, as opposed to Toothless who seems to be capable of only throwing powerful attacks one at a time. And according to his bio, Xigbar can teleport, so that plus shooting a barrage of accurate shots then he wins. Toothless can fly, but that's about the only thing going for him.

Barry Allen/The Flash - Hewitt said no friends, so Natsu's power of friendship won't work in this fight <:D
Natsu

Rorshach
Santino Morella - He's gonna trip on a banana and make Rorschach laugh hard enough to use his finishing sock attack <:D

==================

Ash Williams
Insanity Wolf - This nigga insane <:D

Reisen - I think I might watch NGNL sometime in the far future so I'm not going to read much about Sora, but it seems like his greatest strength is his charisma, which I doubt will help much. And Reisen can make people go crazy so there's that too.
Sora

Kirito
Jackie Estacado - This guy seems to have more perks that Kirito.

Zidane
Redd Heart - Zidane has an ability to "Protect Girls" so that's a bust for him <:D

I don't know why the lizard should be given any chance but Shulk has minor Precog powers. That trumps anything the lizard can ever dish out.

I know he's my nom, but this is really tearing me apart. Xigbar can teleport spam and shoot all over the place despite Toothless' unmatchable speed. Not to mention, his tail is artificial so that in itself is a glaring weakspot.

This was really close but Barry Allen/The Flash can run circles round the guy, even if he's really inexperienced in this universe. The Flash is one hero that doesn't really matter when it comes to sheer power so he'll definitely give Natsu a run for his money. Yeah, pun.

Rorshach. Goddamnit, Smile.


Block C Results:
Shulk beats the Jurassic Park T-Rex (7-3)
Xigbar thwarts Toothless (9-0)
The Flash beats Natsu (7-2)
Rorschach beats Santino Morella (8-1)

==================

This was an odd pairing enough in itself, but Ash Williams not only has the better weapon, he's got moxie too.

Reisen lol. I thought people could have argued for the other guy tbh.

This was a hard choice, but Jackie Estacado is like a budget Spawn, which even at that is enough to beat Kirito no matter how much he grinds.

I'm undecided on the last one. I haven't played FF9 yet, and I feel like the final boss in that game is like Redd Heart in terms of characteristics. So I'd say it's pretty damn even.

Ash beats the Wolf (7-2)

Happy Voting.

Will votes count more IF the write-up / defense of the character is well articulated?

You can use your writeup to convince future voters but yeah other than that, no.

The writeup is just a nice way of arguing and sharing insights about who would win. As I mentioned before, it's suppose to be a debate thread but it seems no one is keen on having intimate discussions and just want to share their opinions all the same. Less interactive, but just as insightful.

I feel like if we make the vote count more, it will lead to more debate. I would love to debate some of this stuff, but I feel like people are just going to vote for who they want anyway.
