Macklemore

Audrey II wins. Louis’s lack of combat experience, clumsiness, and lack of tactical thinking are too big a gap to overcome, even with a Proton Pack. He gets entangled and eaten after some funny slapstick chaos.

The fact that the character she's fighting can teleport?

Deacon wins 6/10 …but Dash wins 4/10 with the edge of preparation, environmental awareness, and very, very lucky shooting. If Deacon ambushes Dash in a narrow corridor, then Dash dies quickly (slashes, acid blood, stealth kill). (Most likely outcome based on your set-up, which is great by the way!)

Carol has the overwhelming power advantage here. I like this idea for a matchup, but it's one that Carol simply cannot lose.

I give it to the Sailor Scouts. Superior coordination, tactics, and range. Their magical versatility should theoretically trump the Wrecking Crews brute force. FTL-scale reactions and spiritual sealing hard-counter brute tank strategies. While the Wrecking Crew is physically stronger overall, their lack of magical defense, poor teamwork, and overconfidence should lead to their downfall against a disciplined magical team such as the Sailor Scouts.

Hakumen’s precise time-based slashes and sealing sword are exactly the kind of thing that shuts down enemies like Blade. Blade has immense physical power and durability, but lacks the mobility, countering finesse, and conceptual weaponry to keep Hakumen down. While Blade could win in a protracted siege-style slugfest, Hakumen simply has too many kill moves that bypass armor and cut through essence.

Don't think that should change anything, the Indoraptor was destroying mercenaries on its own.

Indoraptor has this. I hesitate to say it has better battle IQ than Trevor, although that might actually be true.

I actually think Totoro has this. He has the mystical edge over Big the Cat.

Sarah wins by margin of tactical superiority and offensive capability. Laurie survives, and her bus makes it close, but Sarah neutralizes the Creeper and delivers a larger number of kids alive.

His fighting style is extremely fast paced in a game where characters already move fast enough as it is, and on top of that he has teleportation and leaves after images. I think it's safe to say he's faster than quite a few characters in Blazblue which through scaling should put him solidly above Jinx. Of course, due to it being a fighting game feats are a bit wonky, so a case for Jinx can be made.

Think Hibiki has this due to superior speed and reaction time, teleportation, lethality, and superior durability. Jinx might be able to do something if she catches him completely off guard due to being crazy, but I kind of doubt it.

This is not a clean or happy win. If this were on screen, it would have all the emotional tension and grit of a “Rangers lose one of their own” moment. Jason likely collapses from energy depletion, the Sword of Power is destroyed, and Zedd is left smoldering in a crater—but not dead. He escapes. Barely. The Rangers win this fight, but the war? Still raging.

Leia's experience, equipment, and resolve to protect Hera and the New Republic give her the edge, especially with a powerful explosive like the thermal detonator in her arsenal. But the odds are only slightly in her favor due to the swimmer alien having absolute home-field advantage.

Again, I love these characters. Doomguy wins this on his own though. Not even Samus can stand up to him.

They... are not. I was taking creative liberty with that one. Maybe Skynet REALLY caught their attention.

Doomguy punches Master Chiefs head off.

Agreed. Kazuya breaks Nightcrawler in half. There's really no hope for him, considering a) for a teleporter it's very easy to catch him off guard and b) he leaves a disgusting smell where he teleports to so it's hard for him to be stealthy. Coupled with the fact that Kazuya's physicals are on an entirely different level, I don't like Nightcrawlers chances.

Deadpool should have this. He should be similar strength, decisively faster, infinitely more skilled and most importantly even better regeneration (if they even manage to hurt him somehow). He has this.

I agree. A lot can be done with a character as wicked and twisted as Homelander to the point where you can really let your disturbing thoughts shine through and this just fails to showcase that. On topic, Batman should easily have this considering you have given him insurmountable prep time to beat any flying brick, let alone one as (comparatively) weak as Homelander. Batman has this 10/10 times.

2029, somewhere on Yautja controlled Earth Skynet has fallen. The Yautjas have taken over. Humans are no closer to reclaiming their former lives on planet Earth, they've merely pulled the drapes off of one enemy to reveal another underneath. Calling them 'enemies' is a generous understatement—it suggests they are equals, capable of turning the tide at any moment. Yet to them, humans were nothing more than ants, mere afterthoughts in a war waged across space and time between the synthetics and the Yautjas. Yautja scientists are still holding Skynet on a closed network. Trying to cultivate it's knowledge so they can create the closest synthetics to replace humans for their hunts. They have given up on trying to cultivate humans like they did Xenomorphs. Humans were too unpredictable. They planned and were always rowdy. They did not have the hivemind mentality that allowed them to be easily subdued. As long as there was a one-eyed man in the valley of the blind, there was a chance for a revolt. I guess they've figured out a way to create these synthetics, since they are now going to be taking the last batch of humans that are alive to be hunted. I've heard stories about what they do, stories from humans that survived more than one hunt. They have a strange, abnormal respect for us. We are kept in a large room furnished to resemble a mansion interior, or at least what one can only assume a mansion interior to be like. It's a large abode, where every human is allowed to do... whatever, really. It's a strange juxtaposition considering they treat us like animals that only exist to be hunted. Is this how cattle felt? We never truly gave them any hope—and at this moment, hope is the worst thing they could offer us. It's exactly due to these reasons that I had to do something that no sane human being would ever think of doing. I, of course, treated it as an epiphany had struck me and drove me to do something no rational being would ever consider—I decided to send a Terminator back to the very first recorded Predator hunt. Had we halted the Yautja assault on Earth from the outset, perhaps we wouldn't have capitulated as extensively as we eventually did. We can only hope that the Terminator fulfills its purpose—terminating the very first Predator. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1987, Guatemala Lurking in the treetops, the elusive Jungle Hunter had started his hunt shortly after landing on Earth. Lingering from above like an all-seeing God, he was carefully examining a team of elite soldiers and how they dealt with lesser warriors. It was majestic. Brilliant. He couldn't wait to have his wrist blade taste their blood. As this was happening, about 700 meters away, an explosion which signaled the arrival of a T-800 occured, which caused the Yautja to immediately divert his attention from the Major "Dutch" Schaefer's private military team. It wasn't just the Predator's attention that was caught, unfortunately. "What the fuck was that," Poncho asked. "Sounded like an explosion. Big one. Think it's another guerilla installment?" Blain continued, exuding pure confidence. "Why would they be destroying their own installments?" Billy scoffed. "Hiding the evidence,' replied Blain. "Evidence, huh," Dutch said, turning his attention Dillon. "What exactly are you having us do here?" "What needs to be DONE," Dillon angrily remarked, bringing his face closer to Dutch's. "I don't need you questioning my ethics, I just need you to follow my command. I don't know what they have stored up here, but we need to destroy these so we can stop a bigger war from happening. Is that clear?" "I wish you would inform my men before you send us on these kinds of suicide missions, Dillon. If there is truly more of these kinds of installments," Dutch says as he waves his arms around the carnage which had unfolded around them, "death will come to us sooner than later. I'd appreciate it if you had let us know what we were getting into before throwing us blindfolded, Dillon. I expect at least that. Not as one soldier to another, but rather as friends who have been through some shit." "Major, I think we should get moving. Head towards the explosion and see what's going on," says Mac as they all move toward the explosion. As they head deeper into the jungle away from the outpost, they continue being followed by a extremely well hidden Predator who swiftly and carefully jumps from tree to tree. The explosion got his curiosity, but his attention was still firmly locked onto the group. "Let's slow down a bit, the explosion came from around here," says Dillon, as he signals to the rest of the group to aim their guns toward the place of the explosion. "I mean no harm," says a familiar voice. Hawkins was incredulous. "Major, that, uh, that sounds like your voice. Do you think they are using some kind of playback to trick us?" "No playback, there is a reason why I sound like your Major," said the Terminator as it walked out from behind the dense foliage of the Central American jungle to reveal a naked Dutch. The paramilitary group could not believe their eyes. "Please allow me to explain." "You have 5 seconds to explain before I put a bullet between my eyes," said Dutch as he aimed his gun right at the facsimile's head. "I am an exact copy of the only known survivor of the Val Verde incident. I was sent here to preserve what happened here historically, while also stopping what will happen in the future." "The future? You expect us to believe this bull-crap you're feeding us," Blain mockingly said. "Yes," the T-800's reply was swift and genuine. "What is the Val Verde incident?" Dutch asked, his gun still aimed between the T-800's eyes. "An encounter with an alien lifeform. One that most of you do not survive." "Nothing can survive what we have in store here. We have brought enough weapons and ammo to light up a small town." "And yet you failed to survive an encounter with the Yautja." "I still don't see why I should believe you," said Hawkins. In an effort to prove it's superiority, the T-800 slowly turned to face Hawkins. "I will have to show you then," he said, as he turned back to face the gun that Dutch had aimed at him. "Proceed with shooting me." "Are you crazy," Dillon said, "Major you may not shoot him." "I think I'll listen to myself, Dillon. I trust him more than I do you after this little fiasco you've put us in," Dutch said as he shot one bullet, which seemed to merely graze the Terminator, revealing a shiny grey undercoating beneath Dutch's skin. "Incredible," said Billy. "You are not human, are you?" "Correct," replied the Terminator. "I am much more," said the Terminator as it walked to a nearby tree and punched through its tree trunk. The Predator was seeing this amazing display of strength, and could only be fascinated by what was unfolding. It's interest was firmly locked onto the T-800 now, completely forgetting about the previous targets he had been interested in. "I see. What is it that you need from us, then?" Mac said. "I will need the minigun, a shotgun, and a grenade launcher. And some clothes. You can request back up, while I deal with this alien creature. This display of you shooting me and me punching through this tree has undoubtedly led to this creature targeting me as a high priority target. If you do not hear from me after a while, know I have failed and you are next in line to be hunted. Good luck, soldiers." "We'll come back better prepared, don't worry about that," said Dillon. "Good luck to you too, Major." "I am not Major Dutch. I only look like him," replied the T-800 as it gathered the equipment it requested. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Alright, let’s settle this once and for all. The classic cybernetic killer from The Terminator franchise is dropped into the Central American jungle—right in the middle of where the Jungle Hunter Predator (from Predator 1987) is operating. Both are aware of each other's presence, but neither starts with exact knowledge of their opponent's abilities. The T-800 has the same mission directive as Dutch's team: eliminate an enemy force (which it will apply to the Predator). The Predator views the T-800 as a high-value trophy. Conditions: - T-800: Standard model as seen in Terminator 1, armed with an M134 Minigun, a Franchi SPAS-12 shotgun, and an M79 grenade launcher. No backup or Skynet assistance. - Predator: Standard Jungle Hunter, equipped with plasma caster, wrist blades, cloaking device, smart disc, and medkit. - Setting: Deep jungle, just like Predator 1987. Win Conditions: - The T-800 wins if it eliminates the Predator. - The Predator wins if it successfully kills and claims the T-800 as a trophy. - Morality Off: Both combatants are fighting as efficiently as possible.

Fahkumram is a monster in his own right, but if Apachai fights seriously he has this in the bag.

While the Titans are heroes with powerful abilities, Juggernaut’s sheer durability, unstoppable momentum, and mystical resistance make him a nightmare opponent for them. The best they can hope for is slowing him down enough to escape with their mission intact. But if they go head-to-head, they won’t survive the Juggernaut’s wrath. Raven is the best hope—if she can use powerful magic to restrain or teleport him away, they might survive, but it would take everything she has. I think they win cause I think they can hold him long enough for the president to escape, but he probably steamrolls them beyond that.

While the Time Force Rangers are incredibly skilled and possess superior technology, Lord Zedd’s sheer power, intelligence, and the overwhelming numbers on his side give him the edge. The Rangers may be able to take down Z-Putties and even Goldar with enough effort, but Zedd himself is a different class of villain. His magic-based abilities, teleportation, and energy manipulation are far beyond what they’ve faced before. The loss of the Time Force Megazord is another crucial factor. Without it, their ability to counter Zedd’s overwhelming strength is drastically reduced. Ultimately, while the Rangers might put up an incredible fight, they simply can't overcome the dark lord’s might. Lord Zedd reigns supreme once again.
