Chainz and hellfire. And dead families.

Ascension Kratos and Scorpion-Hanzo is used. Speed equalized.

Scorpio:

 

[Mr. Bambu]

So uh. I'm rusty as **** on my Kratos but isn't soul ripping with Claws of Hades a pretty common move for him?

 

[Ecstasy_Amphetamine]

He doesn't have that here wtaf

 

[Ecstasy_Amphetamine]

But he can bypass resurrection with Soul of Hades' transmutation

 

[Mr. Bambu]

like I said, rusty as ****

so we're talking about is Kratos, arguably one of the most experienced fighters on here with an ability to bypass Scorp's survivability reasonably

If that's the case, Kratos takes my vote for now.

 

[Ecstasy_Amphetamine]

I don't think Kratos is more experienced in this key

Scorpion is in his prime here and has already beaten gods before this guy

Plus teleport spam

 

[Mr. Bambu]

I'm like 900% certain that from any of his keys he was already the most accomplished Spartan, a city of warriors/generals.

Beating gods doesn't mean much since the term is vague.

Neat.

 

[Ecstasy_Amphetamine]

Scorpion is older here and has already become a grandmaster of an entire ninja clan

Said god has been fighting people like Shao Kah who has successfully invaded many realms over thousands of years and Shinnok, who fought the thunder god for millennia in a fierce battle. Raiden also knows 700+ varieties of Jujutsu and 4 other martial arts

 

[Hellbeast1]

He was the greatest Spartan at this point yes. This is also after his stint as a general.

Who has the edge in AP here? I think Scorps is 12 Megatons but I'm unsure of Kratos

 

[Ecstasy_Amphetamine]

Kratos is 30 megatons

 

[Hellbeast1]

Okay so relatively marginal. Does Kratos tend to go for Time Manip here?

 

[Ecstasy_Amphetamine]

I'm not sure

He spammed AoE hax in character in the GoW 1 novel but I need to know if he still does that in the GoW 2 novel, then again time stop isn't enough to kill Scorpion since he needs to use the Soul of Hades right away

 

[Kepekley23]

He did try to use it in a few cutscenes.

 

[Ecstasy_Amphetamine]

IIRC he only used it once in combat when he time stopped the tentacles coming towards him

The rest of the instances were just him deconstructing or repairing stuffs

 

[Kepekley23]

Also he used or tried to use his illusion dispelling hax quite a few times in the game, which shows he is relatively hax-happy.

 

[Ecstasy_Amphetamine]

He had a reason to spam illusion hax since he was fighting the Furies especially Tisiphone, I can't just say Kratos spams the EoT therefore he spams his other hax as well

 

[Ecstasy_Amphetamine]

Bumpe

 

[Ecstasy_Amphetamine]

bump

 

[Ecstasy_Amphetamine]

bump

 

[Ecstasy_Amphetamine]

wew

this is still fair, with all that Tier 2-3 Kratos stuff

 

[Kredory]

Fairly certain Kratos has this in the bag, this is the version that has reacted to instant TP before. See Pollux/Castor for example.

 

[Ecstasy_Amphetamine]

If you're going to vote, give me a wall of text. A valid one ofc
