Junko VS Clover: Despair Fights Another Lucky Being

[Psychomaster35]

I’ve always had the thought of doing this considering I’ve always compared Clover to Nagito many times, mainly with their luck. Given Junko has dealt with ultimate lucky students before, it would be about time she fights the symbol of luck itself.

The general plot is where Junko was wanting to see more people she could give despair to, and upon finding the an interesting one who felt too similar to a certain person who represented hope, proceeds to kidnap Clover and force her into her killing game. Alas, she isn’t buying it, and now she wants to stop the Ultimate Despair once and for all.

Speed is equalized, both are 8-B (With Junko controlling Monokuma), and the battle takes place in Hope’s Peak Academy. Clover starts just in the hallway of the dorm rooms on the 1st floor, while Junko is located in the Monokuma Control Room on the 4th floor. Clover has knowledge of where Junko is, but she has no idea what Junko herself is capable of aside from her and Monokuma being a danger.

Who wins?

The Ultimate Mastermind of Despair:

The Cheerful Contestant of Luck:

SQUID GAMES:

Personally, I think Izuru might have been a better fit, but mah~

... So how much Monokuma does Junko have here? Like, in IF Story, I know that Junko could call upon tens-to-a-hundred Monokumas and could control them with extreme ease due to her Ultimate Bullshit. She also just needs to take a glance at Clover, and would literally know everything about her due to her Ultimate Bullshit, again.

Would also be able to know what Clover would do-sure, her luck could help reduce Junko's bullshit. But she still has a massive number advantage, and her Social Influence is also bullshit as well, and madness hax the frick out of Clover if given the time to do so.

Granted, if Clover's Luck is powerful enough or allows her to get to Junko, she would easily be able to do the job Nagito should have done.

Junko can have as much Monokumas as she needs if necessary.

As for Clover’s luck, it’s passive and it can trigger at convenient times, especially when characters would try approaching her or she’s about to get hit. For instance, Nickel attempted to approach her when he was angry at Clover’s luck, he randomly slips on a banana peel. When a hammer was being thrown torwards her, another conflict between Nickel, Balloon, and Tea Kettle happened to have made them throw Box by accident, causing Box to be thrown between Clover and the hammer making him take the hit instead. When a paper plane containing a message that would get her to lose was being thrown at her, it just randomly stops in mid-air before falling straight down. Even when she isn’t doing anything, gusts of wind would often push her out of the way of harm to save her from danger.

Her luck would definitely help prevent the despair videos from being played considering it’s been used to prevent MePhone4 from loading the votes. While depressed, she also once wished that her luck would go away, which would eventually happen with her getting crushed to death alongside many other contestants.
After she wished Nickel luck, her luck happened to get bestowed to him when whatever he wished for suddenly kept becoming real, which he believed was Clover’s luck that did this even after her elimination. So it would be possible she could use her luck to wish Junko would be defeated in order for her to win.

Hmm.

So, Junko's best bet is trying to get Clover so depressed that she just wants to die. Cuz her luck is more potent and controller than either Nagito's or Makoto's luck. Tbh, it seems more like Utsuro's Luck, if you are familiar with Danganronpa Fan games, going back to the topic on-hand, however...

Clover's Luck would likely prevent her from being surrounded by all sides by Monokumas, and her raw physical stats would push physical confrontations onto her ballpark-granted, in terms of skill, Junko beats her heavily due to her ultimate bullshit, but mah. If that can't work out, however, Junko still might be able to break Clover. She is in Hopes Peak; she has complete access to the speakers and cameras, and would be able to figure out the words to say that would psychologically break her the longer and longer Junko has time to figure Clover out.

... Kinda going with Junko FRA unless I can hear more about Clover's Luck. The former still has the numbers, homefield, and intelligence advantage, plus, Junko's social influence will **** over Clover's mind, especially since she doesn't have any supernatural willpower or whatever to resist it; Junko might be able to negate Clover's hard-to-kill status by simply convincing Clover to off herself.

Mind you, I don't know much about Clover's series, so I am prepared to be corrected if I made a mistake here.

Do note that Clover has had messages prevented from being sent towards her through her luck, which means if Junko were to try to say something to Clover that would make her feel despair, some lucky event would prevent her from doing it. Also, when Clover was unaware she was being watched by Nickel who was trying to take an embarrassing picture of her, one of her butterflies managed to block the camera view and ruin it, so it would be possible for her butterflies to block the cameras around Hope’s Peak so Junko wouldn’t know where Clover is.

... Wouldn't that mean that Junko has no way to actually do her thing? Like unless she was literally right in front of her? Does seem like Junko could try to break her via Monokuma by the way you are talking about Clover's luck, tbh. Again, it seems like Izuru/Awakened!Hajime would be better since due to his own luck bullshit.
