DEATH BATTLE! Discussion Thread (2024–2025) (All-time Death Battle Spoilers Alert)

Gonna be honest, not hyped for the next fight. Never cared for Among Us and don't really care for Fall Guys. As for this fight, I think it was pretty good.
Tbh you're not alone

I think this is one of the best fights they've directed in quite a while. Next fight looks like a big snoozer meant to appeal to the younger crowd, ngl. Literally nobody talks about fallguys scaling
 
Tbh if they used the pure hearts I would have liked to see Archie stuff used for eggman
There's a big difference between Archie and Paper Mario, though. Paper Mario is considered canon to the series, having several references and all that jazz, while Archie Sonic is its own separate continuity disconnected from the Game Sonic continuity.

One of the black boxes at the start of Eggman's analysis even said that they weren't using alternate media like Archie Sonic.
 
I'm pretty sure they scaled Dreamy Bowser to the Dream Depot, but you could be right. I guess based off what they actually said, Bowser was Universal while Joker is Multi Universal but you could say Bowser is stronger at his peak power

Not like it matters, I'm mostly just curious.
They scaled Bowser with the Star Rod to the Dream Depot, actually

Tbh if they used the pure hearts I would have liked to see Archie stuff used for eggman
Archie Sonic is a completely new continuity, while Paper Mario has arguments for being the same as normal Mario (I don't buy any of them, lol, although there's implications of the events of the first Paper games actually happening on the main timeline)
 
So returning back to Among Guys, is there actually feats above 9-C for the Fall Guys? I know they can get smacked by machines that produce more momentum than what you would see in something like Wipeout (the show), so I hope there's at least a small chance they could keep up physically.
 
Learned from MORØ Twitter Q&A that the animation was gonna be about a minute or two longer but had to be cut due to time constraints. The victims of this cut were the Koopalings and possibly the Time Eater. We could’ve had even MORE frosting on this delicious cake. Ahhhhh
Speaking of Moro, did any of you all notice that one of the frames for the killing blow has sillhouettes of the two's original game sprites?

Ah, thanks for correcting me.

You know in the far off future, assuming Death Battle is still relevant by then, I'd actually like to see DB use Archie Eggman to some capacity. And it's not because of the fact Archie Eggman is a stronger version of the character, but rather because I'd love to see how casual viewers react to how much of an absolute monster and psychopath Eggman in the comics is.

That would be nice, tho I can think of no good opponet for him

Now, a better question would be whether Joker and the Phantom Thieves could steal Bowser's heart.
Could Bowser's heart be considered twisted or corrupted? Because he is someone who tries to conquer the Mushroom Kingdom, kidnap Princess Peach, and defeat the Mario Bros. But the spin offs and a notable amount of mainline games show that Bowser isn't quote unquote "evil" and he's not exactly known to be twisted or corrupted.
 
Ngl, I do feel like Doom powers amped Shadow as well, and they got rid of them.

And now that time is fitting ig, I do agree Sonic has scaling problem after few years looking at it. IDW feats are significantly worse than Game feat scaling, the disperancy isnt good. If this continues its going to be even worse. Sonic never makes a dent anywhere meanwhile Shadow gets to wallop Metal ******* Overlord lol
Going by the Japanese dialogue, Shadow states that Sonic is already much stronger than Metal Overlord during their fight stating that Metal Overload "doesn't come even close to Sonic's level" (The Japanese material seems to be much more into Sonic getting stronger over time, even some story summaries have lines about Sonic training off-screen and getting stronger before on-screen adventures).

He might not be a cruel tyrant, but he still is an imperialist so they can probably steal his treasure and go “stop trying to marry peach and invading the Mushroom Kingdom”.

Dose this mean SS before 06 wasn't universal?
 
technically Shadow saying Sonic is way above overlord could be referring to the super form, since super sonic couldn’t beat Overlord alone before.
 
So my thoughts on the next episode can best be described in four simple words: who asked for this?

Like I get that Among Us and Fall Guys is part of Zoomer/Gen Alpha culture, but I cannot fathom the mindset that DB had when they were presented the MU and they said to themselves: "Yeah, this could totally work as a Death Battle episode!" Add onto the fact next episode is coming after the sheer spectacle which is Eggman vs Bowser, I've never felt more deflated after receiving such a high in my life thus far.

I mean he could be referring to Super form, but isn't that basically arguing through semantics? Because you could argue that Shadow was referring to Base Sonic just as much as you want to argue he was referring to Super Sonic. I get what you mean, though, but I think it's looking too deep into intent.

I mean it could be cartoony silly gold but also we have actually cartoon fights for that
 
Dose the mario series currently have a opponent for Archie sonic? Or is the hights of the sonic franchise just higher then mario?
There's a Japanese manga known as Mario-Kun which, to my knowledge, gets pretty crazy with gag abilities and feats in general. I don't know much about Mario-Kun since it hasn't been properly translated into English, but I've heard that it's pretty powerful.

Lex Luthor anyone?

Speaking of that, what're your TRUE feelings on Bowser vs Eggman?
