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

Like DB has ever cared...And I mean...Halo has an stupidly blatant higher dimensional system.
We have discussed this and it got nuked
Not to mention Doomslayer has 11D to 1-A Arguments
 
Speaking of Doom Slayer vs Master Chief: I know this is a bit of a silly question to ask, but how do you folks feel what the episode will do to justify them fighting each other?

And I know that Death Battle doesn't care about character morals and all that, it's called Death Battle, but I don't recall the Slayer being the type of guy to fight human opponents.

My guess is Chief mistakes him for a rogue or traitorous UNSC soldier going on a rampage and tries to put him down and Slayer responds in kind? Or it just starts in media res?

This was when the wiki gave half a dime about sense, author intent, integrity, logic, reasoning, and common sense. Wouldn't suprise me if they decide to make everyone in Gaylo a boundless smurf.
 
Did anyone catch why the battle turned from an initiation to a death battle
After Mahito started landing hits on Tomura (and causing him to lose Quirks with Idle Transfiguration), specially when he drew blood when using his arm blade, Tomura grew sick of Mahito and decided to just kill him instead of going through with his initial goal of recruiting him, hence the echange "Audition is over!" "Did I get the part?" they have just as the train arrives. That, and Mahito's constant taunting and nonchalant carnage didn't help.

Yeah I misspoke a bit in my first reply since I was on mobile. I meant to say that I understand that there's 11D arguments for the universe for Halo as a whole, but none that Chief can actually scale to.

The only ones that get that high are fully powered Flood and the Forerunners/Precursors which Chief doesn't get close to even with his Forerunner gene alteration in 4. He doesn't have a way to weaponize Slipstream space with any of his standard equipment, I don't think Weapon is as efficient as Cortana was (though I imagine she's certainly above how she was in Halo 1-3.

Slayer hears that Chief's name is "The Demon" and he goes to kill him.
 
I know that Chief has some really solid Large Building to City Block physicals and Hypersonic+ reactions, higher with his arsenal, but does anyone take the G1 blogs city and SoL scaling seriously?

I'm just hoping that if they do consider that, they realize that higher dimensionality =/ infinitely higher power without very crucial context. Even besides that, we know Chief isn't complex multiversal considering the fact that:

Chief is threatened by nuclear bombs and has to either run away from them or shield himself

Normal ass UNSC ships can survive slipspace (yes, they use special shields but why wouldn't the didact?)

Even Cortana needs multiple Guardians to destroy a normal 3D planet rather than oneshotting it effortlessly

SoL? Hell no. Maybe if you're a Chief wanker (tbh I used to wank Chief)

Also where are you getting hypersonic+? Chief scales above someone who dodged like a mach 10 weapon or something but he was a couple meters away.

The dimensional scaling comes from cortana, to proclaim that Master chef is a higher dimensional being is on the same level as "boundless mario because platonic scaling"

I think I've seen calcs of him intercepting that carbine round in the FOD movie that get to Hypersonic
 
yall couldve voted shadow vs mewtwo thats just me doe.....
Chief vs Slayer won by a big margin Shadow vs Mewtwo 2 never had a chance the push was never gonna beat a mu with a long history as chief slayer for a rematch

Besides not like Shadow vs Mewtwo 2 ain't going to happen next year prob the most likely year for the mu
 
So, any one else underwhelmed by this ep?
Nah, not really. Then again, do like it less than pretty much everyone else I’ve seen talk about it.

Like, I get it, it’s a good episode, and compared to Kratosura, it’s a ******* masterpiece; but overall, I think it’s probably a 7.5/10 - 8/10. Really, the only thing holding it back was some pretty noticeable jank in the animation a some of the time (no, the “body horror” or whatever doesn’t excuse it, it looks like an animated history video you’d see in class), which can understandably be attributed to humans being harder to animate than more fantastical characters like Bowser or Eggman for Moro. Choreography and cool moments do help make up for it, though.

Also, I kinda found the track a little….boring? I mean, I’ve listened to it by itself and it’s solid, but I never even noticed it in the fight. You could probably put any other somewhat similar track and I wouldn’t notice a difference.

One last super minor thing is that I kinda felt like the editing was just too much a few times. Like, dawg, not every panel you show has to have movement in it, it makes it look weird. But that’s a relatively trivial thing, and I liked the extra stuff as a whole.
 
Speaking from upgrade point of view, MCDoomslayer is absolutely one of the best choices to get a remake just for fight animation alone. Doom 2016 wasnt even a thing in first ep, so a real 3D fight will be glorious.

But lets not kid ourself. This MU probably happened because people were salty lmao

This is basically if TophGaara or YangTifa got a rematch, its just to see DS win.

I'll ask it again, I remember seeing some arguments, that without modern 2016+ stuff, Master Chief should win at the time, is that the case?
