Magnamax Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Alright, my consistent argument when Ash has drawn this is his ingenuity. If things get rough and a new raft needs to be constructed, etc, he has skills that are good with that scenario. He’s consistently shown to be good at building, etc and I think that helps in this scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peypeypeypey Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Both of them would probably survive pretty well, neither is especially predisposed to letting others survive over themselves, and both and strong and crafty enough to get out of the lower decks if they happen to start there. The only thing I can think of is that Ash is more tenacious and probably more crafty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the same man who managed to out think a member of a space-faring bounty hunter race just by working with the things he had available to him in a jungle. Ash might have done things back in the middle ages, but he had a group of people to help him out along the way and he wasn't really in the same situation that Alan had been put in. As much as I love Ash and his movies, I do not believe that this is that clear cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The predators intentionally nerf themselves and use the bare minimum of their equipment and abilities in order to have a good hunt, so beating one of them is less impressive than beating any of the myriad of demonic horrors Ash fights, in my eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bergy_Berg Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 I don't know about Ash, but Dutch is getting on one of those lifeboats whether the other passengers like it or not. Dutch also has resistance to pain and is a peak human physically, so I like his chances of surviving in the frozen waters better than Ash. 2 minutes ago, Peypeypeypey said: so beating one of them is less impressive than beating any of the myriad of demonic horrors Ash fights He's beaten more than one predator, and even if they do "nerf" themselves I'd say a predator is every bit as deadly as any demonic thing Ash has fought.

He's beaten more than one predator, but the second one was pure luck, and every one after that he had backing from some black ops organization and predator technology, so it's a lot less impressive. Ash is also 100% getting in a lifeboat, and would be just as capable as Dutch at forcing his way into one. Ash sawed off his own arm, so his pain tolerance should be just as high as Dutch's, if not higher. Ash's physicals are all higher than Dutch's also, including strength and speed, so by your own logic Ash would actually be favored here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Ash on the Titanic, fighting off Deadites possessing the passengers as the ship goes down would have been a fun episode. I don't see either of these characters failing to survive. Seems like a just vote for who you like best.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnamax Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Im Most of Dutch’s traps don’t work and he is losing to the Predator in a fist fight, badly, before the Predator happens to unintentionally stand in front of a log trap into a log trap.  I cannot emphasize enough that Ash constructs a prosthetic hand, crafts shotgun ammunition and fixes up a car in Medieval Europe. He has borderline toonish craftsmanship skills.   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It completely misses his post-movie feats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
