Who do you think will win the next DEATH BATTLE?

Not open for further replies.
Try not to think logically, Season 3 hasn't been off to the best start XD

I normally defend ScrewAttak because it gets a lot more hate than it deserves for only 2 or 3 wrong ones out of over 50... but near the end of Season 2 with the trainwrecks that were Yang VS Tifa and Mega Man VS Astro Boy, then the whole Dante VS Bayo, and Bowser VS Ganon fiasco... It's getting harder and harder to take these guys seriously.

But like I said, there are some very accurate Death Battles, so it's not like they're always wrong. Things have just seemed super fishy since the merger with RoosterTeeth.

But with all of that out of the way... Who do you think will claim victory? Jak or Ratchet?

Since it's Death Battle, they'll either wank the hax to enormous proportions or not use them at all.

In my opinion, this battle could go either way. Ratchet and Clank far outclass Jak in the arsenal department, but Jak's weapons have more ammo and some of Jak's even have a faster fire rate. Clank has some nice hax and so does Jak. But while they both have weapons, Jak is still a huge force to be reckoned with even if they don't have weapons. Ratchet does have hand-to-hand combat training, but the most we've seen him do without weapons is swing around some wrenches.

So in my opinion, I'm leaning more towards Jak but it could go either way. If it does go Ratchet's way... Clank will be the reason for his victory.

Ratchet, because he has a movie coming out.
Yang because RWBY Season 3 is coming out.... XD Yeah, I can see that happening... Hopefully it doesn't come to that. I am a bigger Jak fan than a Ratchet fan, but I can still totally see Ratchet winning. But if he does, they better have good reasons and not leave out anything game changing that Jak has. They better not just hand him the win because of the movie and his new game...
 
In my opinion the amount of wrong Death Battles now outweigh all the correct ones. It just annoys me when people start treating it as the be and all of everything when a lot of the research they do is flawed
 
Ever since the merger with RoosterTeeth that was announced around Yang VS Tifa, DB has gone to crap with their research quality. I don't like playing the blame game or anything, but look at all the signs.

  • RWBY Vol. 3 was just around the corner.
  • SA merger with RT
  • Yang VS Tifa Death Battle with Yang's actress voicing her.
  • The fact that they are all of a sudden doing super requested Death Battles.
I feel like RoosterTeeth may be rushing them to do popular matchups like Dante VS Bayo, Mega VS Astro, Bowser VS Ganon, and now Jak VS Ratchet to attract more attention, and they're possibly rushing the DB team to pump episodes out faster.

All I have to say about them now is, let's see them explain how Yang would be able to beat Tifa with one arm XD

@TheRealCalHoward Uhhh have you seen their stats?
And Did you check Youtube comments?

All i got is "her semblace make her wins"

I hate YouTube people sometimes...
 
Indeed, I've seen people try to justify some of the worse Battles, like Mega Man vs Astro Boy or Gaara vs Toph. And they are extremely toxic when anyone tries to say otherwise
 
Astro Boy vs Mega Man is debatable

Also, we have to think something: we have calcs and everything, but they only have or Death Battle's word, or just checking the feats by themselfs, but they dont now how to calculate them

The comments on the Greymon vs Charizard one were golden. My favorite one was "HAHA DIGIMON NERDS MADE THEIR OWN DEATH BATTLE SO THEY COULD FEEL BETTER ABOUT THEMSELVES" or something along the nature.


As for the next DB, I think it all depends on what weapons Rachet gets. If he gets his most broken weapons like the "Morph-O-Ray" then he wins easily. If he only gets his iconic arsenal, then I think the match can go both ways.
 
@Great ZZ he might have been blocked for being rude... but don't take my word on that
 
I think that the reason DB comes up with some different results than the VBW is because they often use nothing but raw feats and abilities, and only using powerscaling when absolutely necessary. They only used Bayonetta's satellite feat, and didn't powerscale her up to planet buster level.

And I can understand why DB wouldn't make Luigi galaxy level+ because it does seem pretty odd to give the green plumber the ability to destroy galaxies without any powerups, and the tower kicking feat could be an example of toon force.

This, i'm not a huge fan of powerscaling either as it leads to unecssary upgrades
 
Powerscaling is completely fine in most cases. Improper powerscaling gets inflated results, regular powerscaling shows where things should be.

Without any powerscaling whatsoever, Perfect Cell is island level, at best.

Just the idea alone of cell being only island level feels cringe worthy.
 
yeah, DB also does not always factor in speed or lore... They also tend to NLF more often. Like they did in Superman vs Goku and Dante vs Bayo. They also tend to overestimate a character atacks and abilities.

In that case power-scaling is acceptable since Frieza is small star level through direct feats and Cell is definitely stronger than him (prior to Revival of F' of course).

Still while there's a massive amount of fanboying in the Dragon Ball franchise there is an equal amount of downplaying. Recently I had a debate with this guy who claimed that Cell couldn't destroy the Earth because he never did it before

I literally just claimed powerscaling is needed and that's why. Without powerscaling, you can't powerscale from Small Star level Frieza, hence Island level Cell.

It gets worse bruh. Piccolo being stronger than Whis since Piccolo destroyed a moon and Whis has no AP feats xD

Well maybe that's unfair...

Agreed with Skodwarde. Even if Death Battle's made some mistakes in the past that doesn't mean they're incapable of putting out quality episodes and results.
 
I don't personlly mind that they don't use powerscaling, they outright said they don't use it in the first Goku vs Superman episode. but sometimes it doesn't work.

I don't know what you're talking about they still only got a few ones wrong and those are very controversial so there really is no right winner just depends about what fanbase you're apart of. But speaking from a nonbiased point of view, Screwattack does not powerscale literally at all so they are strictly feats & calculations so you can see how Tifa and others lost lol the other ones were pretty spot on their explanations are great Astro Boy would win over Megaman since his overall stats are superior, Same with Dante he's a more capable fighter, I don't see how Bowser vs Ganon is a fiasco just because he survived a supernova doesn't mean he can't be taken down from the inside by hax.

I thought Jak would take it but I could see I was clearly wrong since Ratchet's Arsenal was more than capable of handling Jak and I knew Clank would counter the flash-freeze with his own time manipulation great battle overall!
