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

This guy did a good review on Halo 4, Infinite, and a few months ago 2 which touch upon just how mismanaged modern Halo has been. The lore retcons 343 did are pretty dreadful, and frankly it makes the Star Wars Sequels look tame with how mismanaged it was.



Honestly if Halo was at least doing well this wouldn't feel like another humiliation ritual for Chief, but between 14 years of mismanagement from 343, the ungodly TV show, and now Chief being about to be pasted by a character who is now more popular, more beloved, and has been in better games, it just feels sad to be a Halo fan nowadays.

I'm sure DB will make Chief look cool as they can despite his upcoming loss.

It’s honestly tragic the state of Halo is in rn. Because 343 are so ******* incompetent They have the IP longer than bungie and couldn’t even make a game half as good as theirs. They need to really wipe the slate clean with that studio.
 
With how much the Death Battle Reddit is downplaying Doomguy and hyping up the Anti Matter weapons and speed “advantage” I’m actually kinda worried they’re gonna do my boy dirty only to keep the fight interesting

Then again the fact they’re releasing this before the next Doom game does kinda point to them not needing any new info for Doomguy to win. So honestly I’m just sad we ain’t getting Loreguy til YEARS from now

the speed advantage only exists if you ignore MHS-relativistic Doomguy feats/statements and take the far more ridiculous relativistic-FTL spartans argument seriously which you shouldn't

They'll likely address the lore regardless but they're not gonna have doom lose here

I've never seen Ben make this face before.

What did I miss? What's this about Homura vs Kurumi?
Basically, the guy who was pitching Homura vs Kurumi fumbled the bag HARD

1. Spent more time talking about Madoka than the actual matchup to the point they had to ask him to speed it up
2. I think he was late to the call
3. Kept talking AFTER the minutes were up
4. Brought up a Neptune body pillow to camera

Maybe me not backing the Kickstarter was a blessing in disguise. I can SOMEWHAT talk about my wanted MUs through voicechat or whatever, but lord knows I'd be a nervous wreck talking to the folks who actually MAKE the show. My pitch would be as basic as can be, and chances are I'd still find a way to fumble...

Homura vs Kurumi is actually one of my most wanted fights on death battle, and this guy just did all of this in front of the creators of the dang show for it's pitch, and all for 3,000 frickin bucks...

Like imagine spending hundreds if not thousands of dollars for Ben and Chad to look at you like that, and that’s them trying to be nice BECAUSE you spent so much money to pitch your obscure ass matchup that they’d never think about again.
At what point do you just cry?
