The Rotting Scarlet Light - Malenia, the Blade of Miquella vs Ultraman (Elden Ring vs Ultra Series)

[EddisherSound]

Scenario​

A silver hand slashed through the frail body of a giant bug, cleaving it clean in half. The hand flew towards another cursed insect, severing its neck. This motion continues, until the battlefield is empty of life, filled only by corpses of abominable bugs. The rampaging silver and red figure stood still, a light enveloping his body and giving way to the form of a man in an orange uniform.

The man-like entity continues his journey, eventually seeing a great tree in the distance. He was looking for a terrible source of tragedy, or at least what seems to be one. Throughout his journey across this strange land, he has encountered countless strange phenomena, yet one stood out to him, a disease that consumes the mind and body, a familiar threat to the entity.

When he asked around about this disease, he received varying answers. Some call it a sickness, some call it a deity, but the entity knows the source of it, a goddess and once revered warrior. His journey took him far, his encounters along the way were dangerous and terrible, yet he persevered, closing in on the source of this red blight.

The being of light entered a gigantic tree, his journey nearing its end. Along the way, he encountered a blooming red flower, faint signs of life beaming through them. Yet the man keeps moving forward and arrives at the roots of the great tree. In front of him was a woman, great in stature, and yet unmoving. Her hair was fiery red, similar to the sickness she unleashed, yet she weakly clung to the roots. Armless in her right side, yet her might remained. Beside her was a metallic golden arm, and attached to its forearm was a blade. The man reflected back on the many encounters along his journey here, where he heard the tale of a great warrior, he had reached the end of his journey. As the being of light stepped towards the sitting woman, words of the past echoed in his mind, of loyal warriors, of the battle between lordly demigods, and the blooming of a flower.

"Let's end this long misery, rot goddess"

as he marched forward, the woman stood up
"I dreamt for so long. My flesh was dull gold..."
She stepped forward, picking up the golden hand at her feet
"and my blood, rotted.
Corpse after corpse, left in my wake... As I awaited... his return."
The warrior reattaches her arm. She picked up her helmet, readying herself for the upcoming battle. The being of light rummages the pocket of his orange suit, bringing out a capsule-like item.
"Heed my words.
I am Malenia. Blade of Miquella."
The man stretched his arm to the sky, pressing the button of the capsule. As the light enveloped him, his flesh gave way to a new form, a being of light, adorned in silver and red
"And I have never known defeat."

Well than time to see where this match goes. Though from the looks of it Ultraman has the disadvantage when it comes to AP but a huge advantage when it comes to range. He can however close the gap in strength due to the Ultra Physiology emotion/bond/hope amp thing. Though from the looks of the scenario it seems like Malenia is also be allowed to enter her Goddess of Rot form if the battle gets dragged on since it says she starts in base and didn't mention her Goddess of Rot form being restricted. So if Man doesn't finish the fight fast he'll probably end up getting one shot. But for now I guess I just need to wait and learn what Malenia could do first. Might just go and watch a Malenia boss fight and see what she does.

Phase one Malenia’s going to be healing with every attack she makes. A good enough amount of hits and bleed activates and Ultraman loses a lot more health.

If she had scarlet rot I’d call this a lot more interesting but that’s not a phase 1 thing.

She does that in Goddess of Rot form too.

She is allowed to turn into Goddess of Rot I assume since the scenario just says she starts in Base and not that she's limited to it. So if the fight drags on she probably will turn into that form. Also can she turn into the Goddess of Rot form whenever she want or can she only turn into it after being defeated in Phase 1? And like does she just kinda heal to full hp after entering her 2nd phase?

 

[Jackythejack]

couldn't tell you I haven't gotten taht far yet

 

[EddisherSound]

Yes, she can turn into her Goddess of Rot form

Also can she turn into the Goddess of Rot form whenever she want or can she only turn into it after being defeated in Phase 1

As far as I can see from gameplay footage and cutscenes from YouTube, she needs to take some damage before she can transform

does she just kinda heal to full hp after entering her 2nd phase?

Looks like she does

Bro Ultraman counter her hax entirely Ultraman's species had been facing infection & corruption stuff before and even cure it by purification that can purify to soul level
and this man has been around 20,000 since he make contact with earth He's has ton **** of experience and many many attack abilities he can choose from

and remember this is first Ultraman so he's not using gadget sound like Con right ? til you remember how showa era ultraman love to toss opponents around like ragdoll and this man carry Kaijus that weight 10 K - 100 K ton casually
getting close to him is like Asking Hulk to yeet you oh Melenia about to use Waterfowl Dance ? yeah smack some sense to her what gravity is


the only advantage she has is AP and 2nd form which by look of it didn't help much

 

[EddisherSound]

Yes, he's got ton of options, especially ranged ones, but OG here more often than not starts with CQC,and since he starts human-sized here (which while we don't know his exact measurements, we can base it of Hayata's height of around 175 cm, coming from the 2011 manga), he'll be outranged by Malenia

getting close to him is like Asking Hulk to yeet you oh Melenia about to use Waterfowl Dance ? yeah smack some sense to her what gravity is

Yes, Ultraman has the advantage in lifting strength, but Malenia has more than enough durability to come out from that ragdolling unscathed (unless you think Man slamming her around would cause soul and mind damage lol)

the only advantage she has is AP and 2nd form which by look of it didn't help much

As mentioned above, Malenia has a range advantage, and she heals with all of her attacks, and with enough hit, she causes bleed

Yeah but he can do it later after the match start

Ofc not but staggering by throw and get up later is longer to get up to react than in game staggering where her kneecap just drop and Man can combo her by his variation of attack

As mentioned above, Malenia has a range advantage, and she heals with all of her attacks, and with enough hit, she causes bleed

Sorry but Ultraman never have blood in the first place

 

[EddisherSound]

Bump

 

[EddisherSound]

Yes, but he would still get hit, as 8 or 9/10 times Man would start with CQC
So Malenia still has a wincon against Ultraman, as she could pretty much slash him to death with Waterfowl Dance (assuming she can and would use this move immediately after her first attack) and her higher AP

Not quite. Man can freely adjust his size, as he did with Dada, to match Malenia's height. So, there goes the range advantage.

Man would quickly catch on to Malenia's strategy, just as he did in most of his fights throughout his series. Simply spamming the same attack against Man wouldn't be enough to kill him—it would likely be a disadvantage for Malenia, as Man would learn her attack pattern.

As mentioned by @Emerald, Man's Spacium Beam reaches a temperature of 500,000 degrees and can instantly erase Malenia from the battle. He could also use his Ultra Ring to immobilize her before firing the Spacium Ray, eliminating any possibility of Malenia dodging his attack.

He could also use his telekinesis to immobilize her, just as he did with Red King, before finishing her off with an Ultra Slash.

True, but Malenia's sword would still outrange him, unless Man grows 3-4 meters immediately

Yeah, Man would eventually adapt to her attack pattern if she spams Waterfowl Dance, but she more often than not would use her other attacks interchangeably with it.

The Spacium Beam absolutely decimates her through temperature alone, and the Ultra Ring is a good way to deal with her mobility, but it takes quite a bit of time to pull off, which Malenia could potentially use to get close to Big OG

He could also use his telekinesis to immobilize her, just as he did with Red King, before finishing her off with an Ultra Slash.

Yeah, I got nothing for this one

 

[WanderingGecko]

True, but Malenia's sword would still outrange him, unless Man grows 3-4 meters immediately

If by 'outrange' you mean physically exceeding his range, then yes. However, in terms of projectiles, Man has the advantage. His projectiles can travel hundreds of kilometers—or even farther—giving him superior range in that aspect.

Yeah, Man would eventually adapt to her attack pattern if she spams Waterfowl Dance, but she more often than not would use her other attacks interchangeably with it.

Malenia’s attacks aren’t particularly difficult to learn, especially since 90% of them are slashing attacks that follow a recognizable pattern. Man, on the other hand, has a vast array of hax that make his attack patterns unpredictable, giving him the advantage against Malenia.

The Ultra Ring doesn’t take much time, and Man can perform it mid-air, as demonstrated in his fight with Zetton at 1:33. This effectively shuts down any attempt to attack him—unless Malenia pursues him into the sky for an aerial battle. Even then, she would lose, as Man is accustomed to flying through space and battling airborne kaiju (Bemular for example).

I vote for Man because he is far more versatile, capable of restraining and one-shotting Malenia, and resistant to all of her abilities—even in her Scarlet Goddess form.

Alright, counted

 

[Peter1129]

Man I keep forgetting how characters without heat resistance can get one shot by heat due to it being a form of durability negation.
