Peridot (Base) versus Risotto Nero

[EightAte8]

Battle of the Metal-Bending Rogues!
Who's going to have a foot to stand on, in the end?

Bump

 

[Torlikoff]

Does peridot have any iron in her, cause I think not. I doubt he'll be able to hurt her.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

That depends on the level to which he can manipulate iron

 

[Torlikoff]

He uses it to turn the iron in his opponents blood into sharp objects like scissors or razors. Seems kinda impossible here.

 

[WeeklyBattles]

I mean there are trace amounts of iron in a peridot gemstone but if thats how he uses his iron manip then yeah that wont do much

 

[Torlikoff]

It's probably a stomp then, Peri's 9-A dura makes him unable to hurt her.

Well, in central park. There's quite a bit of metal for Risotto to use.

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

Metallica's durability negation depends on removing all the iron from the opponent's blood, which makes them unable to breath, but Peridot doesn't have blood, and doesn't need to breath, so he can't really do much to get through that 9-A durability.

 

[Torlikoff]

It's probably not going to help, given Peridot probably also trying to use the metal. I doubt he'd be able to even use it given that we've never seen him use metal as a weapon. Again, there's the dura too, he can't bypass it.

 

[Paulo.junior.969]

The only thing Risotto can really do here is go invisible, he can't really damage her, even if he can take metal from somewhere else.

 

[EightAte8]

Risotto can draw iron from other places beyond blood, though. Doing it from his target's blood is just his preferred method of killing. During his fight with Doppio, he makes throwing knives from the ground.

 

[NoOneCanJustDeflectTheEmeraldSplash]

Yeah, once he realises Peridot has no blood he'll just defeat her with metal from a building or something. Risotto's quite smart.

Peridot stones have traces of iron in them already, actually. The deeper a green the stone is, the more iron is in it.

 

[NoOneCanJustDeflectTheEmeraldSplash]

Peridot's a fairly light green here though. So it won't be enough to be fatal.

Ripping out any amount of her gem should have disastrous results for Peridot, though, shouldn't it?

 

[NoOneCanJustDeflectTheEmeraldSplash]

Oh yeah, Amethyst went off the wall because of a crack. Can't imagine what removal would do. I guess that's a vote for Risotto for me.
