Death Battle Season Eight Discussion Thread (2) (All-time Death Battle Spoilers Alert)

[Maverick_Zero_X]

Maybe Ruby’s Silver Eye hax will be made usable outside her Verse in the next season and she’ll just be able to turn Maka to stone

 

[Tipper17]

Maka should have regen, and is also faster, and Ruby's big stuff dont affect her.

...Just kill Ruby ffs. Why do I fear we'll get like 3-4 RWBY fights before her.

not until Rwby done

Unusable? How would that help?

Typo..

 

[Jimmy.robinson.5099]

Typo..

Figured. Just wanted to make sure. Although this DID remind me of that one theory that Silver Eyes work on anything darkness-related, rather than just Grimm...

 

[BlackDarkness679]

Maka stomped hard before the FF upgrades, being Island level while the highest you can wank Ruby to is Small City level.

After the Fire Force upgrades the MU’s pretty much as fair as Juggernaut vs Bane

F

 

[Tipper17]

Bring him in

 

[JoshDoshMosh]

Best match for Sundowner?

Because the Mark Grayson joke is overused, I'll just say Kenshiro
Real talk: it'd be Doom Fist

 

[Joycap]

Death appeared in fire force and shown creating death the kid after shinra

The only way this shit can only get worse for Ruby is if a Soul Eater sequel series comes out and upgrades Maka to 3-A.

Tbh this reminds me of the fact that Salem doesn't have a 5-C key for whatever reason (see the Light/Dark Gods). That peak is inevitable for the rest of the cast.

 

[Kontororou]

Bring him in

Long overdue, but shame he has to die to all his best matchups.

Maybe Capcom could float us a Complete Edition re-release on PC/console to push him back into relevancy.

Or put him in MVC for an official Hulk vs Asura...

 

[BlackDarkness679]

You would think Asura Wrath could have had a lot more going for it as a series or have Capcom make him get a return somehow in someway

 

[Dust_Collector]

Yeah it's unfortunate Capcom haven't done anything to make him return but it's also understandable given Asuras Wrath didn't sell well.

 

[BlackDarkness679]

Darkstalkers chances at returning any soon didnt go well, yet they still brought up characters from there in crossovers, even haggar despite the possibility to be in street fighter once at least

How come Asura wasnt even as DLC thought is amazing, especially since fans were asking here and there

Because unlike Darkstalkers characters like Morrigan he doesn't have massive ****

Yeah it's kinda weird they haven't done Asura as DLC in any fighting game or whatever, besides being a costume in SFV.

Busty succubus doesnt sound bad, tho no pussycat along her too

Myeah, sucks to be Asura

The only way you should rank death battle opponents, how attractive they are

 

[Tots_Real]

Shinra Vs Death the Kid when?
Also I can't wait for Maka vs Ruby to happen this season and be already outdated, lol.

 

[The_Axiom_of_Virgo]

Now that's just asking for trouble lol!

 

[JoshDoshMosh]

Now that's just asking for trouble lol!

Oh I know, I can already think of 3 different ways

Iirc He was gonna be DLC in Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite but plans were canceled for that game since it didn't sell well

 

[BlackDarkness679]

Given Capcom had that game out at the worst time and with a competitor outshining it

 

[RiloKileyFan]

how about which DB combatants death's funeral would you attend? which one would be the most sad?

 

[TyranoDoom30]

Thoughts?

 

[The_Axiom_of_Virgo]

how about which DB combatants death's funeral would you attend? which one would be the most sad?

All Might would be pretty tragic. A legit heroic, selfless man that was a symbol of peace and inspired so many people across the world to follow their dreams/aspirations.

 

[Peter_"Quicksilver"_Maximoff]

how about which DB combatants death's funeral would you attend? which one would be the most sad?

I would say cap.....but he'd comeback due to some comic crisis fuckery.

Wanda might go bat shit insane after she hers Quicksilver dies

 

[Tipper17]

how about which DB combatants death's funeral would you attend? which one would be the most sad?

idk tbh majority of Comic book deaths tend to be in Alternate Universes or get revives fuckery so idk
All Might death would be sad
Erza would be sad given how she got killed

 

[Spinoirr]

Guys you know there is a massive LoL CRT but it's basically dead in the water for some reason

 

[EJthe24th]

how about which DB combatants death's funeral would you attend? which one would be the most sad?

All Might's, especially for Izuku
Ryuko's, especially for Mako and Satsuki
Jake Long's for his family
Steven Universe (same as before)
Ben Tennyson (same as above)
Edward Elric (Alphonse would be a wreck)

 

[Jimmy.robinson.5099]

You would think Asura Wrath could have had a lot more going for it as a series or have Capcom make him get a return somehow in someway

It's Capcom, what did you expect? They only care about the same three franchises.

 

[Kirbonic_Pikmin]

Despite being the Touhou guy, I think this MU is actually... rather boring. There's some connections but the way the matchup would have to play out would just be incredibly uninteresting to watch as a fight imo (Remilia completely stat-stomps and bodies unless Rachel has Tsukuyomi, and at that point Remilia can't pierce her defense and Rachel could just time travel to kill her in the past or whatever. There's not much of interest there imo. Would work better as a DBX I think.

 

[Nero415]

So, I saw that the Marvel heralds were upgraded. Nice. Not the level they're supposed to be exactly, but it's progress.


Now if only you could do the same for DC.

Just wondering, where do you guys place the marvel heralds?

Now if only you could do the same for DC.

I've heard plans to downgrade them to High 4-C which if that's true, then yikes

 

[Jasonsith]

Ditto

Since Korra got fed to Storm, who is gonna kill Rey? I've got an opponent in mind, let me sum up the connections after I have dinner (good connections).

Either Korra comes back (and have a real epic battle), or Delsin Rowe does the job.
Somehow let's go Brandon has a commissioned music for that.

Ciri is also significantly more popular than Delsin, at least for normies, due to Witcher 3's fan following.

Keyword: recently.
What a strategy to let the fame of InFamous die down then feed a Witcher character to a Star Wars character.

Like everyone waits for how Death Battle handles the Jinx battle before adjusting the final draft. Like I myself will.

I would say cap.....but he'd comeback due to some comic crisis fuckery.

Wanda will be very mad, and she will very likely find Zatanna and kill her. In a destined battle that comes one year too late.

how about which DB combatants death's funeral would you attend? which one would be the most sad?

A short list from me by now:

Hulk's first funeral - he died protecting the Earth against Doomsday (albeit failed). He was kind of a heel in the second fight so I fell way less sorry for him despite him dying a second time.
Gray Fullbuster's funeral - he died defending Fiore from an invasion led by Esdeath (albeit failed). (Oh Juvia will be real sad she will find Katara and kill her.)
Mikasa Ackerman's funeral - she died helping the residents evacuating a village from a Titan invasion just to be killed by an uncooperative Blake Belladonna. (Again, Eren Yeager will try finding Ken Kaneki - but I am not sure I have to attend Eren's funeral or Ken's next)

Despite being the Touhou guy, I think this MU is actually... rather boring. There's some connections but the way the matchup would have to play out would just be incredibly uninteresting to watch as a fight imo (Remilia completely stat-stomps and bodies unless Rachel has Tsukuyomi, and at that point Remilia can't pierce her defense and Rachel could just time travel to kill her in the past or whatever. There's not much of interest there imo. Would work better as a DBX I think.

Why do I smell Ben 10 vs Green Lantern? Or Cable vs Booster Gold? Well animation wise both have good sprites because both have fighting game appearances so animation is actually possible. BTW Blazblue characters crush a lot of proposed/pushed character matchups unless some SMT and Guilty Gear comes to play.

So, I saw that the Marvel heralds were upgraded. Nice. Not the level they're supposed to be exactly, but it's progress.
Now if only you could do the same for DC.

Hell about time. Tier 5 god-tier Flash characters clearing Tier 2 Goku Black or even Tier 1 Archie Sonic do not sound reasonable - the tiers for god Flash characters.

Gonna be awhile on that one

 

[Tipper17]

Anyways won't be until Tuesday we get our premiere

Oh yeah, I'm aware BB is a pretty zoinked verse overall. I just am not a fan of the choreo potential of this fight considering it looks like it's just a stomp for Remilia until Rachel pulls out the special equipment. Wouldn't be interesting to see in a research format imo. DBX would do the fight fine though. Unless someone changes my mind on this and explains the connections better or the fight potential better, I just don't see it currently /:

I also want to specify I don't have a problem with the Touhou character losing, I like MUs like Youmu v Vergil or Kirby v Yuuma and Touhou loses both of those imo.

Hell about time. Tier 5 god-tier Flash characters clearing Tier 2 Goku Black or even Tier 1 Archie Sonic do not sound reasonable - the tiers for god Flash characters.

Aren't the Flashes 2A on this website? I'd say that's pretty good overall... I also wouldn't say he cleared Archie and still lobby Archie had a really good shot of taking it

Reverse Flash's 5A placement is ******* horrendous though, yeah.

 

[Tipper17]

Given season 9 should be starting next month (probably next week) besides the obvious guesses wat are some new series you guys see appearing?

Some feasible and possible ones:

• inFamous
• Prototype
• Shin Megami Tensei (technically its sister series, Persona, appeared in DB already)
• Predator
• Sword Art Online

Not like Delsin is the face of Infamous, that's Cole who has Alex Mercer. I don't think Delsin is half as popular as Cole and doesn't necessarily HAVE to appear in DB.

Most of Witcher's fandom comes from the games which released years ago. The recent Netflix series has only added to it, despite being poorly received by the games fans.

Also lol at feeding Ciri to Rey. I chose Ciri specifically because I believe she beats Rey convincingly. Depending on how you interpret the White Frost feat, you can get anything from planet level to above universe level for End of Series Ciri's Elder Blood powers.
