Shadow vs Marx

[The_real_cal_howard]

The ultimate life form has to face tribulations from an insane jester. Speed equalized. Marx Soul vs Super Shadow.

I'll admit I don't know too much about Marx here, so I'm gonna give my take on it. Correct me if I get anything wrong. I'm assuming Shadow doesn't have any RPG equipment or the Wisps.

Shadow definitely has the advantage when it comes to skill and mentality. He's fought Sonic repeatedly, who defeated a robot with 4000 years of experience and copied all skills and abilities from everybody in Sonic Battle. He completely rekt Infinite and his mercenaries with practically no effort. Not only that, but he's more ruthless and doesn't mess around anywhere near as much as Sonic does. It didn't matter that Infinite and his gang were all scrub-level, he killed every single one of them and left Infinite alone because plot and to become the villian lol.

Shadow's major problem here will be dealing with the Regen, as the Friend Heart seems to be kinda easily avoidable. If not, Shadow's teleportation can definitely get him out of a bind. I'm not really sure how to account for Hero/Dark energy here, but I can say that Shadow would be likely to eventually use Chaos Control. He doesn't seem to abuse it in Super Form as much as he does in Base, but the invulnerability that it grants could help as well. He seems to spam projectiles and Chaos Powers more than using brute force. (Chaos Control/Blast against Black Doom, literally nothing but projectiles against Solaris, etc.).

I'll be holding onto my vote for now. Does Marx's Black Holes bypass durability, and could Chaos Blast bypass his?

Don't Kirby 4-As have a pretty big AP advantage over Sonic 4-As?

Marx splits himself in half GG

He starts with that and Shadow has no resistance to black holes.

Going with Shadow due to his time stop, teleport spam to avoid getting hit by Marx, spatial distorting attacks, and Chaos Rift.

@GyroNutz You should check all of Shadow's victories.

@GyroNutz

Iirc Kirby characters are really far into 4-A, almost nearing 3-C

 

[Eficiente]

• Marx Soul one-shots physically due to scaling 14 times above the Doomers, who are individually 4-A.
• Marx's combat experience scales to Hyness and Void Termina, who have lived for aeons, the latter having lived for a ridiculously greater amount of time.
• Marx teleport spams more than Shadow
• Marx starts with an omnidirectional attack
• Chaos Rift and using hax within timestop is OoC for Shadow

If anyone wants to believe that Shadow uses everything IC and the usual stuff then everyone is free to believe everything.

 

[ShadowWarrior1999]

"Chaos Rift and using hax within time stop is OOC for Shadow."

 

[The_real_cal_howard]

Didn't Shake say that Shade or Maverick uses time stop in base form but not often in Super form?

I swear that one's not my words or me wanting to rip on or even trying to scrutinize Shadow. I'm being entirely serious here.

 

[ShadowWarrior1999]

Shadow's character doesn't change in super form.

You can use Chaos Control in Shadow the Hedgehog against Devil Doom when the Hero gauge is filled.

 

[ShakeResounding]

Yeah, I was wrong on that one.

I was speaking from a gameplay perspective instead of a character perspective.

 

[ShadowWarrior1999]

Shake.

Sonic discussion thread now. I brought up something interesting.
