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

There is already comments in the Youtube comments section and the subreddit that they forgot that Eggman’s Hardboiled Heavies and EggRobos can pilot a lot of the mechs for him and Sage could send them all to cyberspace etc but that’s just throwing more to the pile of what ifs, I am just personally curious why they were so scared to give either combatant immeasurable/infinite speed.
Relegated to Black Boxes. Same with higher dimension and multiverse stuff.
 
Yeah, I generally didn't comprehend why Mario Party was allowed since I don't remember those games being canon but eh... - wait, they didn't allow Sonic Shuffle or any of the Sonic cosmology either, what the f-!?

Still, it was good enough, much of the explanations made sense and holy hell, some of the scenes such as Metal one-shotting Bowser, decking Kamek, and KO'ing Junior, the punch out between Fury and Death Egg Robot, and The Death Egg firing while Bowser tried to defend his troops from it were all bloody highlights to this

I disagree with the fight HEAVILY (not mentioning some of Sage's abilities, Nightmare Eggman, and Light Man not even being included - though I do like the alternate outcomes showing how it could've gone, and it became super clear who they were going to have win when they had that whole 'Bowser's army is family whereas Eggman is only a schemer' during their run downs which made it less interesting.) This was definetly a super fun fight
 
What were your particular issues with Ultraguys arguments for Bowser/what way did he downplay Robotnik?
Wonder Flower being better than the Ruby because it's real reality warping (and now Egg Field requires prep I guess, which is weird because EVERYTHING in Eggman's arsenal requires prep), transmutation soloing Eggman's army, Pure Hearts negating Time Eater, etc.

Also, I am already getting the salty allegations despite being right about all my doomerism, and getting accusations of wanting Eggman to "stomp" (Even though Ultraguy said Bowser basically stomps). Classic from Death Battle fans, but good on the show for pleasing their fans, I guess.
 
people getting mad over the result is crazy. Ya'll care too much about the research tbf.

In terms of like, animation quality, entertainment, and production this is genuinely a top 3, if not top 1 episode. They put some love Into it, and it shows.
I honestly think we should be talking about the fight more than the verdict cuz holy fck

People are discussing the result cause the episodes so peak theres nothing else to discuss. Words cannot describe how peak it is
 
Honestly my favourite part of the fight was the fake out death, like for a solid second I even thought that was it until suddenly it was like "oh yeah Dry Bowser lol".
Honestly, I didn't forget about Dry Bowser but the fake out still got me for one simple reason. Sage was still active, I was over here thinking "OK, when's the part where Sage goes ballistic and starts trying to solos everyone" but the fight just ended there making the conclusion very surprising to me

Honestly I don’t blame Desth Battle for being confused on how the Phantom Ruby actually worked, not even Sonic Forces can agree on what exactly it does.

Did they even give a reason why Sage would just give up or how Bowser deals with her if he can't kill her? Or did they just give up?

I don't think the average viewer knows about maginaryworld and I don't think they'd spend the time explaining it to be a multiversal construct ext, they didn't mention dream depot either

I think it was mostly just an animation thing. Realistically how are you going to manage to fit that in with the proper setup. I'm just happy they used alternate outcomes to circumvent this
 
Ganondorf when he gets a call from Wiz telling him they're doing a rematch with Bowser with their current scaling and standards:

Once again, the Phantom Ruby is vague and contradictory in Forces itself and Bowser can be argued to have his more potent hax readily available compared to Eggman. Once again, the debate is literally a coin flip so I don’t think neither the researchers/Ultraguy nor Death Battle were trying to actively screw over Eggman.
Billcord vs Bowsegg deathbattle season finale for debatable but peak episodes
I am surprised that not many people made that comparison sooner, the only difference is that researchers weren’t cyberbullied and impersonated to get them fired nor was the discussion page locked for extended periods of time for Bowsegg.
