Who wins between Shulk and Lightning again?
- 2,281
- 2,846
- 13,816
- 14,899
Very likely Shulk by a large margin by our standard.
And again, this is considered debatable before our big Xenoblade CRT. And it has been in a Community Death Battle before.
And this matchup has been AT LEAST 1 year overdue, possibly far longer.
But TBH Shulk vs Lightning is still arguably the most debatable (beside Shulk vs Silver)Bringing my take on Shulk's MUs back up:
And who are those so-called the one and alternatives? Why are they there?

Kirito (SAO): RPG (in and out of verse) protagonist god tiers who have lost friends (ones that technically came back, depending on your frame of reference), and saved worlds with explicit knowledge and commentary of it's creation (bouts w/ Zanza/Klaus and the Beanstalk vs RATH/Cardinal). Also a bit of a legacy MU with a friend of mine of whom we discuss from time to time. Oh, and have my scorecard with the title being the entire impetus for this MU lol:
P.S: Kirito would probably mistake Shulk for Eugeo. Consider that your premise.
Zael (The Last Story): Operation Rainfall legacy MU, of whom these characters are mains. Both are also 'chosen ones' of a respective power (Monado / Outsider) before that power leaves their respective verse. After Naruto vs Ichigo, anything goes tbh.

Goomba vs Koopa because it was literally a draw.

strange vs fate was so close i mean maybe fate was a 2-A vs a 4-B and he was like 100 trillons time faster but umm... yeah

I heard something about Balrog vs TJ Combo being close af, but I'm into neither game, so I can't verify that claim.
I know Bloodryche did a video on the matter, though.

He's talking about the episode's own given stats.
- 13,816
- 14,899
The crew back then says Balrog vs TJ Combo was close... Until taking into the factor of style crap and limb and drug enhancement.
Nightwing vs Daredevil is one true close battle.
Despite the crew saying Static can oneshot Miles Morales, Static only has a 2 times AP advantage over Miles. Also, technically Mikasa Ackerman can theoretically overpower the aura of Blake Belladonna... Has Blake not been way faster, more skilled and haxxed and are something Mikasa and her ancestors had never faced before.
Oh a super casual Beerus is slightly stronger and more skilled than a serious Galaxia.

I'm not talking where DB out them even though they listed Strange surving the big bang in his feats rundown
Overall

Strange is Low 1-C only when merged with a Low 1-C god. But under no outsider rules this will essentially turn the matchup from fighting Strange to fighting that Low 1-C god.
Vegito vs Gogeta alternate ending

3 more days until my boyo eats dirt, WOO! Okay, maybe not . I had little faith in him until his preview showed that Materia and Summons are being considered this time around (here's hoping they do the same for Limit Breaks).
In general, I'm pretty happy that they aren't sticking to the bare basics like the first time and actually mentioning that Link also has tons of items and abilities and that even his recurring equipment has incredibly potent powers. So regardless of the result, I can be satisfied if in the analysis they comment how both of them are pretty formidable in their own right. Which was my peeve with their first fight, they made weaknesses for Cloud when they could have easily argued how Link had a legitimate advantage in the key categories.
Zephyros gave me a good argument on Cloud's chances, buuut, I'll wait and see. DB is unpredictable, and their criteria to when things count and when not is pretty hard to predict.
And also, the same way I wouldn't underestimate the power of a composite. Link has some pretty broken combos with his utility belt when mixing up the stuff from different games and he can also mix up abilities and feats from anywhere. I mean, for example, any impressive speed feat he had in a game can be enhanced with the Flurry Rush for his reaction and combat speed. Being a composite also means Link completely squashes Cloud in terms of experience, training and knowledge. And in the same way FFVII seems to be getting a major buff since Sephiroth vs Vergil, so could Link be getting one from Dracula vs Ganondorf.
And, honestly, I am genuinely curious about what will they say about the Supernova this time around. They can't just ignore it like in Season 1 or hand wave it like they did in Sephiroth vs Vergil, they either accept it as a feat or dismiss it and explain why. My guess is that it will be considered legit this time, but they will use the International Version and explain the party only tanks a small part of the explosion, reducing the power enormously. (Fun trivia, been checking translations and turns out the yellow sphere seen in the animation is not the Supernova, it's the sun still swelling up and when it reaches Earth then it explodes into a Supernova)
Wiz: The Supernova does seem like an impressive feat, however, it's very blatant that it's a mere illusion.
Boomstick: Yeah, I mean, how the hell would an explosion that eats up planets fail to kill a bunch of weirdos.
Wiz: In a similar vein, Zack may seem like an impressive combatant taking down colossal enemies. But despite his status as a Super Soldier and his skill, he is still human.
Boomstick: They guy was a badass that's for sure, but still fell to the old, reliable guns.
Wiz: Summons in that regard may seem impressive, but they are still inconsistent with the action in the story. It's easy to see why they are mere gameplay mechanics to make battles look more spectacular.
Boomstick: Substance in a game is fine, but I want some flash, dammit!

Based.
Although since dbx is already announced I feel possibly at the end of Cloud vs Link 2 would be announced another 6 characters to another half of season. But that's an assumption.
- 8,219
- 2,575
This is what they said?
- 7,213
- 5,509
No, it's just a meme about how they can downgrade Cloud.
- 15,706
- 11,448
I don't think they'd do that, since they at least considered the Supernova real in Vergil vs Sephiroth, one of the fights with the biggest downplay in versus.
- 8,855
- 4,132
It wasnt a big as a downgrade as you tougth they accidently putted vergil at 9-B becuse bad units conversion
- 22,752
- 49,458
They meant to put Vergil at City right?
- 8,855
- 4,132
Something like that yes
- 14,020

Your opinion is trash, also DB did shittier matches before, if your only problem with it is being one sided, you must have slept under a rock during this whole season
Now you gonna throw the card of "im a woman" to have people come side you? Gender equality is a thing, if you need special treatment for this, this aint the place, keep it for yourself and your outbursts

Its not gonna happen, much like how ryuko vs shadow or mikasa vs blake were made due to legacies, so this too
Jojo and persona also have a rivalry and are compared to one another

So you agree that it's a shitty match then
And no, my problem isn't it being one sided. I'm glad Joker stomps. I just think it's a bad MU iwth bad connections.
Um
I said my gender because you called me "boi". I don't know what you're on about about special treatment. What's your problem?

Hoping Travis vs Scott next season
- 22,752
- 49,458
Travis vs Jack frankly
- 7,213
- 5,509
Considering early Scott upgrades this mu can be even close.
- 22,752
- 49,458
Not until Travis get some big upgrades from his latest Game
- 10,748
- 17,697
I'm personally more of a fan Travis Scott mostly because the idea of mashing NMH music with Scott Pilgrim music from the movie or games
- 8,855
- 4,132
travis is like 1000x times faster and he is absurdly far more skilled that him also the new game
- 22,752
- 49,458
I understand I just feel Travis vs Jack MU better
- 7,213
- 5,509
Still, previously there was massive AP difference, now there's not.
- 22,752
- 49,458
For now
- 7,213
- 5,509
Of course, that's villain's feat from teaser itself already gives goosebumps.
- 8,855
- 4,132
what feat?
