Link VS. Dante 2: Low-Godly Boogaloo (12 - 1 - 4)

Link's page got updated with SOL arrows and more Triforce shit, so let's do a thing! DMC5 Dante, Speed is Equalized, Yadda Yadda all that good shit. Both 3-A.

Link: 12 (Schnee, Cal, Giver, Ted, Shikeiki, SoViewtiful, Ploz, Stalker, Unoriginal, Triforce, Zeldasmash, Nicco, Ashen, Migue)

Dante: 1 (Tony)

Inconclusive: 4 (Dienomite, DDK, Axiom, someone else idk who man)
 
I mean, I was the only one who keeped his vote on Dante while eveyone else was with the incon thing.

Dante for my reasons on the previous thread I guess. Heck, Dante can sidestep everything with the x10 AMP speed (and since we got info on the fruit granting 3-A lvls of powah then the AP gap stays as big if not bigger than before)

redundant and unnecessary thread is redundant and unnecessary
 
i mean the reason dante got inconned last time was the triforce being something he couldn't sidestep, the question now is "Can Dante perma-kill Link before he gets triforced"
 
He will blitz before Link thinks on using it and when he keeps coming back he will send his ass to the demon world.

The argument for the incon IIRC was that either Dante one shots till he seals or that Link manages to pull it in between deaths, your call if you want to continue with it.
 
I'm pretty sure nothing changes. SOL arrows are nothing since Dante is FTL-MFTL and speed is equalized.The new Triforce additions doesn't provide anything new or game changing from the last thread.
 
Amping and crossing the distance to land a killing blow before he can get there, and then managing to keep link down without giving Link a chance to think

Speed amp cancelled by Pegasus Boots + Bunny Hood.

We already went over that in the last thread. Those aren't enough to close the gap of minimum 10x speed advantage
 
Full TF Link falls behind Dante in terms of AP, but not majorly, as stated last thread by Kep.

Both have sealing, Link is quicker to the trigger with it and has more ways to abuse it.

Link is supereffective on Dante. Demon slaying sword, after all.

Dante can fly. Link can too but it's limited.

Link's more experienced

Dante has more cool points

Link hands Dante his sword gg.

In all seriousness, Link thinks and GG

I'm pretty sure this was covered too. Basically the general consensus was Link goes for Info analysis and arrows first in character and it works or Dante DT's somewhere in there and kills then seal Link.Inconcluesive

I'm pretty sure after Kep's comment it was concluded Dante does have vastly superior AP. Even then Dante's scaling chain has grown since then, The Qliphoth which is the lowest in the 3-A chain is unknowingly above baseline.

I dunno about that, apparently he does other things first

True, probably.

Largely debatable

Debatable

DT=FDM. And FDM boosts Link just as much as it boosts Dante.

Doesn't Link "Think and EE GG" or "EE arrow" first? And why would Dante give him the time to put on a mask?
 
Tfw cal mentioned Link hands Dante his sword I was thinking of the scene where Riku throws Sora's keyblade back to him. Link gonna be like "here, catch".

I'm pretty sure that wasn't ever concluded. The 2 people voting dante just sort of went with that.

Really? Then we can settle that in this thread, not like it's gonna change anything since this match relies on hax more than AP but it would be a good discussion

In speed equalized matches, speed amps that allow one character to blitz are prohibited. So Dante can't amp his speed by 10x.

"During a match where speed is equalized, speed amplification techniques are allowed, unless they lead to a victory via Speed Blitz in favor of the slower character."

They are allowed

No, they aren't. This is a direct quote from the Versus Thread Rules page: "During a match where speed is equalized, speed amplification techniques are allowed, unless they lead to a victory via Speed Blitz in favor of the slower character."

Dante becoming 10x faster would result in a speed blitz, so it wouldn't be allowed.
 
@Unoriginal Memes

Dante is the naturally faster character and they both have speed amps. It's allowed here. No rule is broken.
 
Unoriginal Memes said:
And if Dante doesn't blitz, how does he prevent Link from thinking?
Click to expand...
No, Dante still blitzes but it's allowed. If speed was equalized and Link had a 1000x speed boost then it wouldn't be allowed since he's the slower character who gain a benefit from equalized speed

Dante got upgraded due to a feat drenched with cinematic timing that really shouldn't be applicable

Sounds like something that should've been brought up in the upgrade thread
