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

Since Outerversal Simon seems to be possible, wouldnt that also make Anti-Monitor vs Anti-Spiral more debatable as well?

Then again, since DB is kinda lagging behind in VS stuff, they probably wont actually give Simon that stuff.

Hmm since apparently Kyle summoned a Source Wall on Earth, how did they get rid of that?
 
The more I watch Chief vs Slayer, the more I'm liking it. It's a solid 8/10 for me, if only just for the fight animation alone. My only real complaint was that I wish they kept going, because Master Chief hitting the Halo 2 pose had me popping off.

Though Master Chief and Doom Slayer would never come into conflict in the first place, this fight felt like an accurate portrayal of how that fight might go down, similar to Omnilander. That is to say, despite being a stomp, both of their characterizations felt true to the choreography. Doom Slayer's rundown made him out to be unstoppable, and he lived up to it. Putting Chief on the backfoot the entirely of the fight, forcing the Spartan to come up with creative, out-the-box tactics to workaround him was good visual storytelling, with Master Chief's own rundown helping to explain the scrappiness he displays in the battle.

IDK, but I really vibe with this one. Plus the music dropping like gunfire is metal as hell. **** it, 8.5/10.

Actually, I think now is as good a time as any to share my own thoughts on the episode, after a few runs through of the fight:

OST is a hard 'agree', Yates and the fan choir cooked with this one.

As for the fight... until both of these characters ended up inside the portal (something that just kinda appeared... is that a DOOM thing, or...?), I do think there are elements that look kinda janky. The forklift toss looks off, with Slayer's positioning just awkwardly shifting between shots, and it feels like a lot of weapon clashes just sort of snap to certain positions.

When they're INSIDE the portal, however, the fight picks up a lot. The intermission to fight off the demons from hell is kinda neat (even if it is rather short), and I did get a chuckle out of Cortana going 'what the hell was that?'. DS recatching his rocket from the analysis has a good sense of speed, too. Although after the beam/rocket clash, I do feel like the kill with the Crucible just kinda... happens? Even with the reference to DOOM games which... yeah, that's another thing - this does sort of feel like 'The Doomslayer show featuring Master Chief' a lot of the time, largely on a count of the trip to hell being a Doom thing.

Also, it did sound like Kira Buckland was phoning in a few of her lines here - which is a shame, given her role as 2B is a thing, was she having an off day here? Phillip Sacramento sounds bang on the money as Chief, though. GM is hard to judge given he only gets like one line here, so I won't say anything else here, and Yong Yea is... Yong Yea.

I feel similarly about this episode as I did about Killua vs Misaka a while back. I certainly don't dislike the episode, but 'how much' has been hard to pinpoint in all honestly. 7/10 for now, might bump up on future watches.
 
I think Life Equation has to be what they use here, I hope they don't do the Mandrakk thing because that wouldn't work here.

My interpretation is each galaxy is a brane-universe because a big bang happens when two branes collide and the Anti-Spiral created the Infinity Big Bang Storm creating galaxies by colliding two galaxies, and the writers at Gainax were explicitly basing their stuff off brane cosmology which states big bangs can be created by two branes colliding. Given that, that would mean the final drill clash would have to be taken as infinity x 2-A, as opposed to WL Simon which is 52 x 2-A

Even without that, TTGL is like a dozen times 2-A, and STTGL is millions of times to infinitely above that

They're never really used multipliers like that when it comes to multiversal feats, only with finite feats. Furthermore, DB generally ignores the 52 universes thing and simply uses the infinite universes schtick.

Fr tho, how much we betting they're gonna reference that line in some way. Cause I get the sheer feeling they will. 😭

Now that you mention it, i think it's pretty dang likely, they know it's a big meme in the community, and it's also a fight with a green lantern in it. It's the perfect opportunity to reference it

I'm going to crash out completely if kyle wins and he does it like that

They might legit just say White Lantern (Without LE) and STTGL are equal in power then. White Lantern outside the source lantern thing which I'm told is very shaky has no scaling beyond the Orrery. Again the best things a WL ring has done has been defeating an emanation of Nekron whose only best feat was harming a bounded Spectre, slightly knocking back the Anti-Monitor, and being claimed to be a threat to the Guardians. It's just nothing too explicitly beyond orrery level.

He does have scaling, it's just that the WL is not as impressive as some people are led to think it is. Not to say his scaling is bad, far from it, but really, the base WL is more impressive in hax than it is in AP feats.

So right now, just getting through issue 3 of Firebreather, but Duncan seems to be only getting to low end tier 8 right now. But considering his power grows a great deal each passing day, he might show some higher end stuff.
