Ok let's dive in.
Speed is equal so don't need to talk about that. Same with most other stats. Looking at their haxes and.....
Can someone tell me how applicable Talion's resurrection is? If he got eaten by Alex could he res from it? Also I assume we're using their 8-A versions yeah?

I see, cheers.Kaltias said:
Well I will vote inconclusive, given the amount of time it takes for him to come back Alex will likely depart as soon as the fight is over but Tailon cannot be decisively killed for good.

Talking wins pretty easily TBH
His ressurection says "lolno" to basically everything Alex has and he can beat his regen by simply beating Alex until he can't restore himself or just using whatever Hax he has.
I'm honestly inclined to say stomp unless his ressurection has a limit

Well if it takes 12 hours that is more than enough time for Alex to leave if he won, but seeing as how he can't put Talion down for good that why I'm incon.

Actually, if Alex absorbs Talion, would he gain some of Talion's abilities?
Also, does Talion have abilities that does not require physical contact? Because touching Alex will probably get him absorbed since Alex only needs physical contact to absorb.

I don't think Alex could absorb Talion's more haxxy abilities since they rely on Cerem, who is intangible and within Talion.
Talion via mind hax and resurrection.

Resurrection doesn't take enough time to disqualify. Incap requires 24 hours, this takes only 12.
Also, you do seem to be correct. Change my reasoning to Death Hax.

Incap requires 24 hours? Well fair enough on that point.
In light of Bambu's argument I'm not sure if Death Hax is something Alex can effectively answer so I will change my vote to Talion. Way I can see it is Alex gets a lucky shot, Talion comes back and Haxes him.

Does his Death Hax affect Souls?

He's immune to soul powers. He doesn't have a soul.Mr. Bambu said:

Alex on his profile states he's immune to soul manipulation on basis he doesn't have one, could it still effect his body in any way?

No if it's just normal "Death" it's not going to workMr. Bambu said:
Death should require a level of feats to work on regen at least that's what I remember Kal saying

That's not killing Alex
So his only way to beat Alex at all is too simply beat him to death until his stamina runs out, so its a descisive win for him unless Alex can win some way

Isn't there anything for Alex to absorb in Mordor? Any organic life at all?
- 7,883

Well Alex can't put Talion down for good because of the time cap on his revive and not being able to manipluate it, so maybe Talion wins just by sheer battle of attrition?

Then Alex can keep absorbing those things to force an inconclusive.Kaltias said:
- 7,883
- 1,404
Wouldn't he eventually run out of sources to absorb from? I mean he could perhaps absorb the corpse of Talion to at least regen but Talion would not be taken down. I can see the inconclusive potential because of how long it would take but considering Alex can't seem to decisively put down Talion if it comes to the grind however long it took Alex would lose out.

Depends on the population of Mordor. Would that population last longer then the amount of days Talion can fight for? Keep in mind the 122 hour Regenerationn would allow Alex to stock up for round two.Stillwinston said:

Normally, it wouldn't be in-character for Prototype 1 Mercer to start unleashing the virus on his opponents, but...
In this case, Mercer is dealing with an opponent that he can't even permanently kill due to their soul-based resurrection. Wouldn't he become desperate enough to start unleashing the virus on Talion, infecting him and turning him into an infected, once he finds out that he can't permanently put down Talion?
And scaling from Elizabeth Greene (who he has all the powers of via consuming her), he should be able to have control over his own infected. He could defeat Talion by infecting him, and then Mind-Haxing him.
Mercer might not be able to win via killing, but he could win via incapacitating or infecting Talion...

That might not be much of an issue, as based from the Prototype comics (the one that happens before Prototype 2 took place, so he should still be tier 8-A), he can absorb via making physical contact with his targets.Steven Pogi Paitao said:

Based on how Mercer absorbed that civilian in the Prototype comics (and how his absorption works in general), it works near instantaneously. Probably a couple of seconds at its longest.Steven Pogi Paitao said:

Well I don't really picture anything in the Mordor population giving Mercer much issue, we're talking about mind hax against Talion. Does he have any resistance to mind manipulation that we know of?
