DEATH BATTLE! Discussion Thread (All-time Death Battle Spoilers Alert)

You know, now that the episode is out of the oven I really think this is the peak model Death Battle. No unnecessary gore, it's completely in tone for both series and I think seeing eggman get splattered would really have taken a bit of the episode's quality, I hope they go with things like this for the future and save gory deaths for series that make sense for it like Mortal Kombat or Invincible. This is probably the best death battle ever tbh, everything is just so... peak

I'm just saying I think putting someone like Tangle in tier 2 is way too weird

Okay I actually 1000% agree with you and it's my main reason why I wished they kept IDW separate. IDW being "Game Sonic but Tier 8-6 and SoL/FTL" was heavily appealing to me because it allowed people to have a more grounded Sonic and could dump all the baggage of planetary-stellar arguments for the Base cast

I do like how they had alternate scenarios not only to fit in bits of animation that wouldn't flow well with the main fight but also as a "Hey here's what would've happened if they did this instead" to show outcomes and the counters to different strategies visually as well.

sadly, one guy ain't too happy 'bout it being JUST alt scenarios.

I had two fave battles before, that being Goro vs Machamp (animation, battle direction, music ect) and Kirby vs Buu (the fight felt like a SMBZ fight which is hype) and now I can proudly add this one to the big 3.

I love when a verse has a tier 7-6 side to it cause it leaves room for fun calcs. When its all tier 2 it just feels bland.
 
Id like to agree with Arceus0x's sentiment, but I feel like if I did some digging thered be vs shit just as bad as current VSW base Sonic character stats that Arceus0x thinks are fine sentimentally, surely not all T2 shit are bad
 
Arceus0x said:
Will say though I am disappointed by the next lineup. DB will probably make enough money to make 50 new seasons off of it but at the same time I just wanna see some of the cooler matches ya know. Instead we will be getting a tier 9 match at most and its not even between interesting tier 9 characters
Click to expand...
Honestly, I like the next time for the meme of it but like what the hell even is that matchup? Tf is fall guy gonna do? There were so many more interesting battles from the vote like uuh idk Sans vs Judge or whatever, and honestly those two games aren't even hyped atm

I think there's one that you can count as vshit here and that'd be pokemon. I think the current legendary ratings are for the most part correct and I think that in many cases scaling trainers to legendaries despite the discrepancies is correct. There's just some much inconsistent shit in pokemon that if you don't give it leeway then its literally impossible to scale. You effectively scale by chosing the lesser of two evils.

I've come to make an announcement, Eggman is a certified fraud. He couldn't even kill a single goomba permanently in that entire fight. That's right, all powers, no wins, no kills. He's not even World 1-1 level!

He was basically like Kaido in Wano, gotch'ya

The IDW comics are so wierd in regards to the scale, like I play the games and buy that base characters could beat saiyan saga characters no issue, then I read the comics and as much as I love them, I can't imagine the likes of Tangle hanging with the old man version of King Piccolo

I think it's just a part of things not being written with battle boarding in mind, I've gotten that check before haha.

Where do you scale trainers and only trainers, not their Mons?

that's the thing, we (I hope most of us at least) are fine with it. The issue is that Sega said its canon and now we're including it into the main canon scaling which throws a rock into both scalings

God I can't recall the last DB episode that had me watching the animation several times in a row like this

Bro I keep replaying the scene where Neo Metal goes Super and just manhandles Fury Bowser, knocks Kamek out of the fight, and overwhelms Shadow Mario. This episode is so ******* GOOD man, I can't believe that Death Battle cooked this hard

LOL

While you're here, you mind checking out some of the recent stuff in the Lupin discussion I mentioned. It's pretty important to the verse's future here and I'd like to get as many points of views on it as possible.
 
Eggman VS Bowser did not disappoint, easily their best episode of this current season so far.

I may not care that much about either Sonic and Mario, and i do think its was absolute fire.

And for the next time... yeah i guess it was going to happen eventually, just endure it and wait to see what its next.

Ngl, it's pretty bold of the site to have an accuracy thread
Click to expand...
Depending on what verse you are a supporter of, you could see this site as the end all be all of scaling. If the verse you support is strong, has supporter mods, upgrades go through, then you'll probably view the site more highly, so the 'accuracy thread' isn't something you bat an eye at.

Then you have those who look at that thread and go 'pfft, like you have the right'
