Rumble 21433 Kimberly Ann Hart vs. Hawkman (Carter Hall)
RiotGear replied to broadwaybeyonder's topic in CBUB Unrated Rumbles
The set up says the Pink Ranger has the powers and abilities of Ashoka and Demona. This suggests she has inherited skill/ability to use said powers as well as said powers.- 6 replies

Rumble 21433 Kimberly Ann Hart vs. Hawkman (Carter Hall)
RiotGear replied to broadwaybeyonder's topic in CBUB Unrated Rumbles
Kimberly at this point is a Power Ranger Gargoyle Jedi armed with a lightsabers and access to Zord. I'm not sure what Hawkman is gonna do against that.- 6 replies

A couple of questions. When does the draft end? Also, I like a lot of the ideas for this draft, such as using unused characters and matching the slots to categories etc and would join, but my knowledge of Anime is relatively limited and I can't think of a video game merchant. At least not one that is in the Database and I don't have a lot of luck trying to add characters. So anybody got suggestions for those two slots?

Rumble 21209 Roadblock vs. Major Alan
RiotGear replied to leroypowell3's topic in CBUB Unrated Rumbles
Dutch is tough for the world he lives in, but the Joe's are in a different tier. -

The only advantage "Dutch" has going for him is that he's probably stronger( even then probably only in lifting/grappling strength) and that isn't gonna be enough to win this for him. Bourne holds almost every stat advantage, generally has better feats, and is better suited for a rapidly changing close quarters combat environment.

Apex Arena – Semi-final: Jason Bourne vs John Wick
RiotGear replied to Culwych1's topic in CBUB Rated Matches
I'd generally put Bourne above Wick anyway, but this battle also favors Bourne. In that while Wick has shown quick thinking and adaptability. Those traits are kinda Bourne's bread and butter. He did the kind of things Wick did with a whole career and network behind him, basically from scratch. -
Apex Arena – Semi-final: Luke Hobbs vs. Major Dutch Schaefer
RiotGear replied to Culwych1's topic in CBUB Rated Matches
Their stats are close. I think the deciding factor here is that "Dutch" has training and experience in large scale battles from his time in the military during the war in Vietnam. This should give him the edge in this scenario. -
Match 21028 Captain Nathan Algren vs. Maximus
RiotGear replied to broadwaybeyonder's topic in CBUB Rated Matches
This is basically a gladiatorial bout, which is more in line with Maximus's experience. He should take the win. -
Apex Arena – Battle B6: John Wick vs. John Matrix
RiotGear replied to Culwych1's topic in CBUB Rated Matches
Matrix was more than brute force. He also displayed skill and definitely had killer instincts. -
Match 21011 Henry Jones and Indiana Jones vs. Predator Pyramid
RiotGear replied to Venom 2009's topic in CBUB Rated Matches
Dutch didn't join the military until he was 19 and we have nothing to indicate he'd seen any sort of combat or even life threatening situation. Before he deployed to Vietnam. Indy on the other hand joined up at 17 and It's not just his time in military. Jones has regularly found himself in active combat zones both foreign and domestic sense his yearly teens. Even before that he was regularly in dangerous situation in terms of both environment and human opponents. Not just dealing with traps and the like, but also bandits, assassins, and mercs. Jones has been shooting sense he was a child and took up whip fighting as a teen. He is also a tournament winning boxer capable of beating Olympic Champions. He has also demonstrated some knowledge of wrestling, TKD, Northern Shaolin, and apparently an early version of something similar to MCMAP. From what we are shown Dutch is effective, but has a fairly limited move set when it comes to unarmed/melee combat. We also haven't seen him use the same variety of weapons Jones has. So I'm not sure why you'd think Schaefer has learned more combat techniques. They have both ended up reling on guild and luck. -
Yeah, the problem for the Black Knight here is his team mate isn't bringing much to the table. So he is likely to end up in a 1v2 situation. So even if he can out fight any single opponent it won't matter much. I'm also not entirely sold on the idea he is a better swordmen then MacLeod who has hundreds of years of swordfighting experience or even Faith who has the inherited abilities of the Slayers that came before her.

Match 21011 Henry Jones and Indiana Jones vs. Predator Pyramid
RiotGear replied to Venom 2009's topic in CBUB Rated Matches
Your right Indy is not Dutch. Indy has significantly more combat experience and training. In the fight with The Big German Mechanic. Indiana defeated a larger stronger opponent via craftiness and situational awareness. He could use the same methodology against Predators and Aliens. Not to mention that Indy doing poorly against The Mechanic probably speaks more. To The Mechanic's ability then against Jones's. Across multiple forms of media. We have seen Dr. Jones display basically some where between peak human and superhuman physical abilities from breaking metal and smashing stone to dodging bullets. On top of being a top tier fighter capable of defeating opponents such multiple spec ops soldiers at the same time or Olympic champion boxers. In other words Indiana Jones is literally a world class martial artist, with vaguely superhuman stats, and roughly 3 decades of experience with adventuring and combat. This puts him leagues above folks like Harrigan, Hanzo, Royce, and Naru. Who have killed Predators in close combat. As for Xenomorphs they are dropped by pistol rounds and harpoon guns. The armed mercs are here. So Indy has access to guns. Again I ask if Alexa who has none of Indy's skills and borderline no relevant skills/experience that would aid in surviving the Pyramid can survive. Why do you think Indy would do so poorly? -
Apex Arena – Battle B6: John Wick vs. John Matrix
RiotGear replied to Culwych1's topic in CBUB Rated Matches
Wick may be marginally faster, but Matrix is better in every other way. The guy is cartoonishly strong and durable. -
Apex Arena – Battle A6: Marion “Cobra” Coretti vs. John Rambo
RiotGear replied to Culwych1's topic in CBUB Rated Matches
Rambo is better in every way. -
Apex Arena – Battle C6: Jack Reacher vs. Lara Croft
RiotGear replied to Culwych1's topic in CBUB Rated Matches
Leaning Reacher based on physical stats and tactical acumen. -
Apex Arena – Battle D6: Ethan Hunt vs. Snake Plissken
RiotGear replied to Culwych1's topic in CBUB Rated Matches
A gun duel on the streets of a hellish city scape, seems more like Snake's kind of fight. -
Match 21011 Henry Jones and Indiana Jones vs. Predator Pyramid
RiotGear replied to Venom 2009's topic in CBUB Rated Matches
So some one with little archeological or combat experience survived, but you're confused how a guy with 3 decades of onsite archeological experience, including with traps etc, and 20+ years of combat experience, including with special forces and military intelligence, is going to survive? That's on top of physical stats that would allow Indy to throw hands with a Predator, if it came to that. -
Match 21011 Henry Jones and Indiana Jones vs. Predator Pyramid
RiotGear replied to Venom 2009's topic in CBUB Rated Matches
Given everything he's dealt with fighting Aliens/Predator and escaping the pyramid would be a normal weekend for Indy... If he was by himself. His impulse to keep his dad and the others safe is what makes this truly a challenge for Jones Jr. Even then he should be able to rally the mercs and Alexa enough to get most everybody out. -
Rumble 20994 Gamora vs. Elle Driver vs. Connor Macleod
RiotGear replied to broadwaybeyonder's topic in CBUB Unrated Rumbles
Gamora is definitely strong, but she was noticably weaker than Drax. Who manhandled her with ease. I don't see why Macleod's immortality wouldn't play a part. None of his opponents are gonna know how to put him down. Where as Connor's go to move of decapitation should work on both his opponents. It also worth nothing that Immortals in Highlander seem to have some level of superhuman strength themselves from causing swords to spark during clashes to destroying masonry with missed blows, to casual decapitations. -
Rumble 20994 Gamora vs. Elle Driver vs. Connor Macleod
RiotGear replied to broadwaybeyonder's topic in CBUB Unrated Rumbles
Elle is out of her league here and while Gamora may be stronger then Macleod, there are a lot more ways to kill her. In other words The Highlander has the right combination of skills, experience, and powers to take the win. -
Rumble 20981 Indiana Jones vs. Titanoboa
RiotGear replied to Tyrannoraptor's topic in CBUB Unrated Rumbles
Indy's "fear" of snakes tends to be a bit over stated. It's more like a dislike, he has dealt with snakes multiple times. -
Apex Arena - Battle A5: Jason Bourne vs Barney Ross
RiotGear replied to Culwych1's topic in CBUB Rated Matches
Ross has experience, but that is about the only thing he for sure has going for him. Barney may also be stronger and have a faster quick draw, but Bourne is deceptively strong and fast in his own right. He is also tougher, more skilled, has better situational awareness and improvisational skills. In other words Bourne can out fight and out think Ross.
