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

They had the Lich King at like island level when he fought Sauron. Haven't Illidan and Arthas fought each other? Well the hell did this planet level shit come from?
Answer is simple: They DID NOT read the Illidan novel. They did the basic scaling of using Gul'dan's feat to scale Illidan, and then using that to scale Arthas. Might have even read the Arthas Novel. WoW is one of those verses where you basically need encyclopedic knowledge to scale it fully lmfao
This is one of the reasons I didn't want Geats to win. This is the first intro for both of these settings and everyone is gonna get blasted with "THESE CHARACTERS ARE SUPER MEGA GIGAVERSAL WITH THE 1000 HAXES INCLUDING HAXES WHERE THEY MAKE YOU DIE OF KIDNEY FAILURE IN REAL LIFE".
To be fair Gilgamesh is a thousand times worse than Nero for that, it's just he was a main antagonist for Stay Night so he's a solid intro.

Well if we're gonna have a battle of the billion+1 haxes fight then I'd rather it be Doom vs Vecna than Doom vs Gilgamesh like people were expecting way back when. To this day I got no idea where the hell Doom vs Lex came from and it was probably one of the best examples of DB not being fully in synch with the community.

The problem for Gil is that the rest of his matches are either bad, from obscure verses like Realm of the Mad God, or are Warhammer.

And Death Battle can't use Warhammer, they will literally get a copyright strike for even using them in an animation
 
The thing I never understood is that if they wanted to do a Genshin Impact matchup why not just do Xiao vs Illidan? It was evidently popular enough in their eyes to be a part of the first ever Champion's Poll and from what I understand (though I could be wrong) it's not a massive stomp like Aang vs Traveler. You get to have your genshin matchup, it's not a giga stomp, you don't gotta deal with the optics of a beloved cartoon protag getting fed to a gacha character, and it lets you use another WoW character instead of bringing back a character who already had a matchup.
From my understanding it's probably someone on staff's unicorn. Like someone on staff learned about Traveler and went "you know who would be cool for him to fight" and then pitched it and pushed it through as their pick for the kickstarter. This isn't based on what actual Genshin Fans want or what avatar fans want, it's based on some gut feelings.

it's a popular mu, what we see different from what the community sees in there box swan even mentioned this
 
To be honest, Captain America vs Ichigo would also go to alot of hax for ichigo as well, since showa is where all the kamen rider cosmology is
I don't really see them needing to go into that since Ichigo wins fairly easily without that. Like sure he can go way higher but DB would probably cap his stuff to make it not come off as a complete stomp.
