The Batter (OFF) vs Melkor (Lord of the Rings)

Hmmm... I'd have to say The Batter takes this one. With both at their strongest, The Batter wields slightly more power. What about Melkor's hax? The problem with that is that The Batter is FTL, meaning that Melkor would likely never have a chance to use them in the first place. Not to mention, to my understanding The Batter has four different bodies (classified as equipment), so if he does hax one to death there will still be others to deal with. Not to mention, The Batter's ailments serve in a similar vein to hax, if memory serves.

Should I add this to the Notable Victories, then?

Likely does, based on events in the game. You do mean mind control, right?

Well, here's some questions: One, would Morgoth's mind control work on an entity like the Batter in the first place? I mean, he's not human, that much is confirmed, and he's not exactly an animal either. More like a spirit than anything, from what I can see. Two, it's implied that he only is susceptible to being controlled by the player (who is canon to the game) because he wants to be, and apparently could solve all the puzzles in the game with ease but chooses to let the player try to figure it out themselves.

Wasn't done. Three, what's to stop the Batter from straight-up speedblitzing Morgoth? I mean, FTL's hard to get around. And again, four to contend with at a time. Four, could The Batter in theory sneak up on Morgoth and get a first strike? If not, then that might backfire. Five, is it in-character for him to mind-control right off the bat?
...dammit, I just did that.
Sorry if I'm not being helpful enough, I'm just going off of his VS Battles Wiki page, the OFF wiki, and what my friend has told me.

To an extent, I'd imagine. I mean, he basically fights ghosts and monsters and the sort all the time.

Wow, uhh
First off, I'm just laughing myself to death right now, looking back at the times I thought one vote was enough to qualify for addition to a page
Secondly, speaking of, this doesn't have enough input for now to be conclusive, sooooo...
Also, given the buffs both have received since this was originally posted, may be a good idea to limit it to a weakened Morgoth and an early-game Batter.
