Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
And the future winner is...
Spoiler
Batman! Well, Terry. I frankly don't mind but I also don't care much because I know neither too well. I guess I could argue they allowed outside influence but they did the same with the Spy fight, so..
I'm sure you could find other bits to argue about but in the end... I don't care much about this.
Not sure how much attention next week will get... I guess more than this?
Spoiler
Sepiroth vs... Vergil? He's from... uh... I've seen him somewhere... I wanna say DMC? Yeah, internet says I'm right.
Well, this might be fun to watch at the very least.

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
Im not certain I agree with the outcome of todays battle but I admit that as someone who only watched the cartoon series I likely missed a LOT of what terry could do. And as I had never read anything about this spiderman I was totally in the dark about him. As for the upcoming fight, rofl, this is probably going to get ugly in the fandom.

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
The turning point of the battle was the outside assistance I think. I don't think though that it was fair to say the suit was unhackable cause the cave beat Brainiac, when the suit was hacked ATLEAST twice in just the cartoons. Though the speed feat is what kills it. Nevermind the fact that Spidey did not use Mjollner or however it's spelled.

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
I really hate the way they take random scenes, make a ton of assumptions about them, and then base the whole fight on it. Like the composition of the rock. For all they know it's hollow, or mostly ice or something. Most of the time Terry's strength is shown to top out much, much, much lower than 200 tons.
I do think Bats 2099 could win because of Bruce's input, but I don't like their argument.

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
I was actually curious about this match up. Because I loved Beyond cartoon and Spidey2099 is one of my favourites.
I don't care about who won, only....
Spoiler
why putting so much big deal about the "new" "improved" 2099 white suit and then NOT using it?
Expecially when Terry is using the "new" one, with higher speed and the sonic boom?
I agree that the black one is MUCH cooler but... no use of hologram for misdirection?
Also, AI and Batman input were... pretty useless?
So much potential for a match that was so.... meh.

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
I don't normally watch Death Battle...mostly because I'm still angry about the math errors and factual inaccuracies on a couple of high profile episodes, but a friend of mine linked this one and...
Spoiler: A major thing they got wrongThe version of Miguel that wielded Mjolnir did get power from it. The reason he dind't gain Thor's Armor or Asgardian physiology is becuase that's not the kind of warrior or leader he was.
You can't pick up Mjolnir and not gain the power of Thor. The Worthiness Enchantment only stops you from picking the hammer up, most of "Thor's" powers are innate properties of the hammer that just holding the Hammer would bestow upon you.
So this fight should have been ridiculously one-sided in Miguel's favor.Last edited by Rater202; 2017-12-01 at 07:25 AM.

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
SpoilerThat wasn't a one-off thing though. the Miguel from the timeline where he owned Mjolnir owned it for nearly a thousand years.(One of Miguel's spider-powers is ridiculously slowed aging. Not quite on the same level as Captain America, who is clinically immortal, but still)
Furthermore, Miguel's story was kind of building up to him becoming Mjolnir owner, with the Thorites declaring "Spider-Man" to be a sign of Thor's immenant return and all that.
Granted, that's not the version that got the upgraded armor(and the Mjolnir version might have gotten retconned out of existence, there's conflicting info on that,) but they brought it up so they should have used it--even if he didn't get powers from it, it's still a massive War Hammer capable of leaving a dent in true Adamantium when swung hard enough and is magically indestructable.
Belatedly, I realize that they left out that Miguel is telepathic.Last edited by Rater202; 2017-12-01 at 11:53 AM.

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
So, Sephiroth blurb is up. Still haven't played any DMC but doesn't this battle seem incredibly unfair?
Seph has his magical, never-miss "HP to 1" attack. How is Vergil supposed to counter that?
Also, we probably need to make a new thread soon. Any ideas for names?Now I'm thinking with ponies!

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
Eh... I don't know... If Bayonetta couldn't kill Dante, why would Sephiroth be able to kill Vergil? Bayonetta killed angels and gods. Sephiroth... Killed Aerith. With a surprise back-stab. But other than that, he doesn't really accomplish much... And can obviously be destroyed by three relatively normal guys. Also, that full-to-1-hp attack?! It can be interrupted )well, in Kingdom Hearts, anyway).

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
According to a storyline in Question volume 2, a miniseries from 2005, Superman's physiology being sun based means that "Planetary based esoteric and vital forces" are super effective against him, with chi being cited explicitly and a statement being made that a concentrated amount of those energies would cripple and eventually kill him
There are multiple demonstrations that "divine or semi-divine" energies count as magic and are in fact the magic that Superman is most vulnerable to.
Meaning that, had Screwattack read Superman's DC wiki page, the Superman v Goku fights would have gone radically different.
I bring this up, not to start a flame war or whatever the reason they say for why they won't revisit that is, but to demonstrate that Screwattack either fails to do the basic most research on a character at best or cherry picks facts at worst.
Like, for example, them misunderstanding what Miguel Ohara not transforming while wielding Mjolnir meant, to use the most recent example.
The last episode should have been ridiculously onesided in Miguel's favor, but Terry still won.
Sephiroth vs Vergil is even because Screwattack says so and the winner is going to be whicheverone they think is coolerthatthey did the most research ondepends on how many overcites and errors they make.Last edited by Rater202; 2017-12-07 at 03:32 PM.

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
Dante should have probably lost against Bayonetta if we're being honest. The fact that he won means Vergil should handily beat Sephiroth.
However, this is the company that had Wonder Woman lose to Rogue and then beat Thor. They aren't even consistent within the bounds of their own "research".

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
Yeah that was more than a little absurd. As for sephiroth versus dante, im thinking it wont end well for sephy. I mean, even in his final form, unless they go with the fluff of his "supernova" move instead of the crunch, he really doesnt have anything THAT special. "Oh my god, the final attack of sephiroth would unleash the equivalent of 90x the worlds supply of nuclear weapons all over the hemisphere of the planet the fight takes place on, reducing the world to ash in a heartbeat."

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
Honestly the way they handled Dante's regeneration bodes ill for this fight. They clearly just decided he was to immortal to harm for real because he tanks the occasional big hit and left it at that, add in the weird cutting every raindrop ever feat they made up and things go south fast. That said Virgil dies at some point eventually and Sephiroth is among the most dangerous entities in Final Fantasy cannon. If his plan had gone off he would be in the range of Kefka for WTF power scales of outright godhood and without he is rather insane, he doesn't loose to a couple of rando's so much as Cloud has the same genova cell weirdness that he does and can fight on his metaphysical level.

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
Hah! Doesn't even have to go that far... You only have to remember that they completely borked the math from the very beginning! And that the "Superman has infinity strength" makes absolutely no sense! It's explicitly stated that the energy that fuels Superman's powers comes from the Sun, and even if Superman absorbed all energy from every yellow sun in the universe and somehow multiplied it by 1 trillion, it still wouldn't be infinity. Or, even simpler: If Superman has infinity strength, so does every other kryptonian... So why evil ones (like Zod, Faora and evil versions of Superman who have no qualms about killing) don't simply one-shot all their opponents? Hell! Why doesn't Superman simply one-shot robot enemies? Goku x Superman was one of the most obviously biased and "trolly" they ever made.
I don't know about that... Bayonetta has a lot of firepower, but they do have a point in that Dante is effectively immortal (and really freaking powerful with Devil Trigger activated, which he's only beginning to master).
Truer words were never said. This is what irks me the most about DB... They are completely inconsistent even within their own material. And some fights have their results decided even before they start their "research" (Superman x Goku and WW x Thor being clear examples, IMHO).Last edited by Lemmy; 2017-12-07 at 07:49 PM.

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
I tend watch the whole thing. Thought I do wonder how much rigor they would have to put into the research to please everyone...
They were just looking to see if Ichigo could keep up which isn't hard seeing how they lied about most of Naruto's feats anyway.
Though I do wonder about the lying part, can you explain in more detail? Like, was that destroyed moon only a tiny moon like in DK vs Knuckles?
Truer words were never said. This is what irks me the most about DB... They are completely inconsistent even within their own material.
Though that kind of proves your point. Hm.

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
Everyone seems to forget that Rogue was the version with Ms. Marvels durability and powers. That does so much to give her the leverage to get a decent drain onto WW. Sure I think Wonder Woman would likely still win but it is hardly a total stomp.

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
Yeah but it was the xman cartoons ms marvel, someone who rogue beat BEFORE she had those abilities. Its not like she was superman with breasts in that incarnation. Meanwhile wasnt that the wonder woman that can fly at light speeds and go toe to toe with the ACTUAL superman?

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
People are aware that having Ms. Marvels powers was a thing for Rogue in the comics as well right? It was pretty much how she was introduced and was considered her default setting for a long time in comic book terms. Personally I think it was the wrong call to give her said powers since its not the most up to date version of a characters powers but it at least makes some amount of sense to go with an iconic version and it fits with how they have decided the Equipment for RPG characters. Death Battle sense. Kind of like Death Battle logic. Code for bull****

Re: Death Battle II - I don't THINK Gara got robbed I KNOW he did.
Two large ones were Naruto's moon is hollow and the interior's floor space is large enough for them to build an entire county in it so it's not like when I say hollow I mean it has a tiny cave either. Then Naruto's Truth Orb blocked Madara's mouth blown extends-as-fast-as-light laser for a moment before shattering giving Sage-of-Six-Paths Naruto the time he needed to dodge it (in the manga Madara doesn't even shoot the beam directly at Naruto either, instead it's as fast as he can turn his head to swipe it at him), they simply cited this as Naruto is able to dodge FTL attacks. Naruto isn't as fast or as powerful as they claimed.
And if you wanted to count beams of light for speed feats. A Menos's Negacion, the pillar of light Aizen used to escape soul society after revealing who he was, also moves at the speed of light. Sui-Feng & Yoruichi were able to disengage from Aizen in time to dodge it and I know you want to attribute that to them both being fast as far as Shinigami go. But both panel & anime wise a second beam breaks through the sky and after that Hisagi also disengages from Tosen and dodges one too. So if DB wants to say Naruto is FLT for failing to dodge a light-speed attack then Bleach's normal lieutenant's are too.
And so is child Goku, funny how they didn't want to bring that up before...Last edited by Mato; 2017-12-10 at 03:14 PM.
