Korra vs Storm was a really old popular match up, but it is by no means a legacy match, same with blake vs mikasa, I might not really like MachoAids, but it was atleast something that was built up for years as a legacy.

Exactly Korra vs Storm was only a MU Ben wanted and was only for few years before her other picks took over
while it wasn't bad it really wasn't a MU that needed to Happen especially when Korra had better like Delsin or Rey

Guys they said countless times to not focus too much on the legacy aspect. Since Yodickey no less.
Now I do think it should hold true for the finale and if it’s not Galacron or Colex I’ll be disappointed (I don’t like Haloid either but I’ve come to…tolerate it), but besides that, y’all only have yourselves to blame for thinking the season would’ve been nothing but matches like Diocard the entire season.

see here's the thing
obviously not every MU was going to be some Main Event or even Upper Card MU but when you are doing a season you would want do MU that would justify their placement or least be what fans want currently

I was wondering about Death Battle combatants
But if they ever used Gilgamesh from Fate, do you think they'll only use Fate/stay night feats and claim the Extra/Grand Order feats are like Archie Sonic compared to Game Sonic?
And who do you think Gilgamesh would ever fight in DB should for some reason he come to DB (as unlikely as it is)? I hear plenty, like Algol, Doctor Doom, Yukari Yakumo, Haoh, Sinbad, or even Yhwach. IDK if he wins all of them but I think even Full Power loses to Sinbad and prolly loses to Doom's hax as well but he might beat the others. But then again, who knows what the DB Research team thinks of Fate stats. The only Fate stuff DB has done is two DBXes, so I have no idea where they could place Gilgamesh in.

Just saw this while scrolling around. There are misconceptions about Da Rules that makes people think it limits Timmy way more than how it really does, as this incomplete blog shows.

No they wouldn't. Because literally nothing implies that.

If they're going to do a Sailor Moon character, they should do Sailor Saturn vs. Raven.

I'm probably gonna get flack for this, but since this is the 10-Year Anniversary, I wouldn't mind Samus vs Master Chief. Wasn't Haloid a major inspiration for DB or something?
- 2,831
- 6,517
I wouldn't mind either, I just don't think it will perform well unless it's really really really good and the algorithm helps them. I think Death Battle needs a huge match-up that brings in more clicks/subs. They need it.

Unless DB Fanboys and Ben are glutton for punishment Black vs Thawne already gave us an answer on how the third round goes down+ movie and manga says no
arguable runner up and at the same time can discarded given we had enough returnees in one season plus Doomguy literally says hi
Clink 2 was our big rematch of the season so nah
Blake vs Mikasa says no to that and playing the waiting game on Ruby silver eyes
only one on the list i can vibe with and its a MU that is a finale esque MU but there likely saving it for next year or doing hellboy vs nero
i hear this while true It's been stated that the series had been heavily inspired by the VS Battle Series and Deadliest Warrior.
so it's not it's the MU thats why DB exist

Oooh, I wanna give the MU comparisons a try. I'll go with Cerebella from Skullgirls.
VS Twintelle (ARMS)
Pros:
Cons:
VS Mystique Sonia (Hero 108)
Pros:
Cons:
VS Twintelle (ARMS)
Pros:
- ARMS and Skullgirls music would work pretty well together
- Both of their skillset works off of each other pretty nicely
- Pretty good animation potential
- Brings two new franchise/series in DB
Cons:
- Skullgirls is fairly niche though ARMS somewhat decent popularity might boost it up a little
- Not really highly requested
- Twintelle only appeared in one game and is fairly featless on her own without scaling and lacks material in general
- No good sprites for Twintelle for 2D sprites unless custom sprites are used
- On the other hand, there is a 3D model for Cerebella that's ready to be used that can fit well against Twintelle but a 3D Skullgirls character would be weird and awkward to see
- Cerebella stomps
- Limited dialogue potential as Twintelle, though has a personality, doesn't really say some interesting lines (though it shouldn't be too big of an issue and DB can insert full lines while keeping her personality in character)
VS Mystique Sonia (Hero 108)
Pros:
- Brings two new franchise/series in DB
- Skullgirls' jazz and Hero 108's Asian instruments and slight techno would make for an interesting fusion as a soundtrack
- Their abilities and skills would work well on each other
- Has some banter potential thanks to their personalities that would play off from each other fairly well
- Would excel best in hand-drawn animation
Cons:
- Hero 108 is extremely obscure and niche and Skullgirls' already fairly niche status doesn't really help too much
- Mystique Sonia stomps
- Also not really highly requested
- If purely using sprites, then MS has no ready sprites in hand without the use of custom sprites

To be fair, it isn't a stats thing, so this is actually a pretty good question.
Batman's palace probably would be extremely difficult to break into, though, considering he would know the tactics that Joker and Co would use and considering all the mental protections he's put on himself throughout the years.

Pros:
Cons:
vs Beta Ray Bill
Pros:
Cons:
Vs Zero
Pros:
- Arguably MK Best MU
- Animation potential is good

- Decent Banter
Cons:
- Zero arguably doesn't need to come back
vs Riku
Pros:
- Animation Potential is good
- Banter could be good
- KH+Kirby would slap
Cons:
- not both best MU
- both have better

Pros:
- Beta Ray Bill in DB is Based

- Animation Potential is decent
Cons:
- Not MK Best MU
- Animation Potential not exactly strong
- Arguably not even the best you could got for BRB
- A BRB Custom Sprite could be very sketchy as hell and would clash very hard with MK one
- BRB not being high up there in Marvel Reps
- Comic Book character cucking Character who has better MU syndrome

This one's a little esoteric. If you want to guess I'll give you a hint: one of the combatants is straight-up a real-world lion.
Cool guesses, but no. The correct answer was: Composite Human vs Adult Lion

Uuuuugh... He does? I mean, i myself liked Zero vs Metal Sonic, but holy shit that animation has some problems. The sound design is probably the worst in the whole show, the 3D segments looked shitty and unnesecary and the whole fight was just Zero dominating.Meta Knight Time

Again, i liked the episode, but this ain't it, Zero deserves better.

Star vs The Forces of Evil could be set on Alabama swamp and nothing would change.
So let's say some show they are going to have a charcter from is going to fight, and that show gets new material, will they delay the episode?
- 6,737
- 13,767
Probably not, they like to call it Death Battle curse. Or maybe they have and we dont know about it.
As for this "legacy" season, there is one major thing for it thats not talked about. Large part of it are matches that people working on it want to do. We know Chad wanted MM vs KAM, but Ben has wanted Korra vs Storm since S3. We know Ultraguy asked for Black vs RF, the team in general liked Lex vs Doom & Shadow vs Ryuko. Large reason why it doesnt feel like true legacy season for matches is thats there are a lot of personal team wants rather than community wants.

It was really a legacy season for them moreso than the fans (even though I still question how the **** anyone wanted Korra vs Storm over any of her other options)
- 40,470
- 12,953
Let’s be honest people weren’t really clamoring for Korra in the first place. Whether it was Storm, Rey, Delsin, or even Boruto, it wouldn’t have been an actual legacy matchup.
