Lex Luthor is easier to look through than Gil if that's who you're talking about. Lex's stuff is at least all available in english.

At least nothing about Gilgamesh was made before 2004.
No, the actual Epic of Gilgamesh dosn't count.

Brandon knew what would happen today. I'm really happy he decided to soften the blow with Fate in his matchup today.

Eh pretty decent, but likely not on the same caliber as God Emperor Doom so maybe they might have to stick with their base power

Bowser has nobody, unfortunately. There's Lord Hater from Wander over Yonder and the obvious Eggman match to continue the rivalry. Neither are good fights.

I doubt Brandon cares enough about Fate to save a commission release for this specific day seeing as he's never done anything fate-related before and he got the franchise Iskandar was from wrong before correcting it (It said "fire emblem" beforehand)

The only rematch (and Death Battle for that matter) that I want nowadays in Eggman vs Wily 2, so that it can finally have an actual winner and feel less of a fanfic

Also I want to get something off my chest.
This Marvel vs DC crap has to stop. You're being annoying.
No crap the two most popular super-franchises in the world get a ton of representation. The only series that's been on this show that's as iconic as Marvel and DC when it comes to superheroes is Dragon Ball. Not Mario. Not Star Wars. Not Sonic. Not Pokemon. Not Naruto. And certainly not Fate. And seeing Doom in the beginning, while yes, Gil would totally be a more diverse fight, you'd be off your rocker if you thought that matchup was more iconic than Lex vs Doom, something that's been a rivalry for the past several decades. And yes, Fate would by far be the hardest franchise to explain on Death Battle. It would make Kingdom Hearts and Metal Gear combined look like explaining Broly. Contrary to popular belief, the series isn't made for you. It's made for the casuals, not the weebs who spend half their paycheck on trying to get Mordred in F/GO. And I wonder what made more money between Fate and hell...just the DCEU alone. Fate will get in of course. Saber killing Erza or Lucina is inevitable. But shut up about them passing up the "obvious" match when if you know a thing about marketing, it's not the obvious match at all.
This is to nobody in particular. Just those who won't stop complaining.

still a worse matchup that gil vs doom

if by "a bit much" you mean BOOSTERRIFIC

This is giving me the same vibes as Ed's death in Aang vs Ed and yet I 100% agree.

Yeah, for some reason DB knocks battles with absolute "Who?"s out of the ******* park. Lucy, Booster Gold, Lobo (debatably)...
Why do you think I want them to tackle the Indie games that me and five other people like?
Edit: Lobo is debatably a Who, Lobo vs Ghost Rider was amazing.

Look, Gil vs Doom is a cooler matchup, yes
BUT
Lex vs Doom is:
-More Iconic
-More Popular
-Has more of a history
-More mainstream
I genuinely don't understand why anyone actually thought that Death Battle would do a match that only became popular recently, during the anniversary season where they're celebrating their biggest matchups with long histories behind them
And this isn't a jab at VSBW either, I saw this on G1 and Twitter as well. Lord knows I did my best to try and manage people's expectations

which indie game?
- 15,707
- 11,450
Azure Striker Gunvolt, mainly, though there are others. I think Shovel Knight's the only indie character that's been on DB, anyways.
- 8,901
- 4,162
yes but that doesnt change the fact that is another DC vs Marvel plus is a stomp
- 23,049
- 50,395
i been saying this regarding Ryuko MU
Db a Buisness at the end of the day you want obscure character to get in
have them face someone who's far more well known
i feel like folks kinda undersell booster and lucy a bit
Lucy was baby's first edgy anime in the mid-2000s with classic OP
Booster appear in the DCAU and had a episode dedicated to him along with being in the BTAB heavily and appearing in JL action cartoon

Gunvolt would be cool on DB but I don't really think they have any decent opponents that aren't taken by more popular matchups. Like, Cole vs Gunvolt is cool but Cole vs Alex exists
Refer to cal's post.
If you really think they aren't going to do Marvel and DC stuff this season that's your fault. Every single death battle season has at least 2 Marvel/DC Matches.
And no, it's not a stomp, actually. Yeah, Doom wins, but You underestimate Lex.
Once again, under DB rules, Gil beats Doom with more ease than Doom beats Lex

Isaac would be a cool indie match but hard to find matchups for him I think, also there’s undertale

Alright. I'll say as many positive things about Lex Luthor vs Doctor Doom as possible.
- The banter will be god tier
even if not as god tier as Doom vs Gil would have been. - It's a loss for DC
- This isn't gonna be Doom's last chance for an actual good matchup. Doom's obviously going to be in the MCU, and as shown with Captain Marvel DB is willing to give characters who suddenly become popular thanks to the MCU another matchup. And Doom will be popular if they handle him with anywhere near the respect he deserves like they did with Thanos.
- This episode's probably going to be a shitpost goldmine
