Range: A couple meters with her swords, Several hundred meters with her Heaven's Wheel Armor

Standard Equipment: Various sets of armor, weapons and an artificial eye she uses to bypass illusions.

Intelligence: Erza is an infamously powerful mage, having become an S-Rank Mage of Fairy Tail at the tender age of fifteen, and regularly takes on S-Class Missions described as being so dangerous that a single mistake could mean instant death. While she's skilled with a variety of weapons, she heavily prefers the use of swords, being skilled enough to use both a conventional and reverse grip and can even wield blades with her toes when restrained. She is also an expert hand-to-hand combatant, easily grappling both Natsu and Gray, the former of whom is an equally infamous brawler, to end their disputes and interspersing it into her swordplay to catch foes off guard. Furthermore, she also possesses a keen intellect, methodically picking apart the abilities and limitations of Midnight's Reflector Magic to psyche him out before nullifying it completely with a special robe.

Weaknesses: Some armors make her less mobile, Erza frequently puts herself in harm's way for the sake of her guild members.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Ex-Quip aka "The Knight": Erza uses Ex-quip, a type of magic that swaps weapons and armor at will. Her certain Ex-quip is called, "The Knight." She is noted for her ability to Ex-Quip quickly and is the only sword mage capable of equipping armor while fighting, earning her the nickname "Erza the Titania", and is well known in the continent, not only in the city of Magnolia. Her strength is so great that even strong mages such as Natsu and Gray fear her; this fear immediately ceases their bickering in her presence. Happy said that Erza's magic is beautiful because it causes a huge amount of blood to spill from her opponents. Erza is also able to mix-and-match her armor and weaponry and even switch between various weapons and armor in a short amount of time.

Armor Types
Heaven's Wheel Armor: This armor Erza uses to face multiple opponents. Erza becomes surrounded by many swords which can be thrown at her opponents.

• Sword Requipping: Erza is able to summon plenty of swords (roughly more than 200), and launch weapons at her opponent(s) in a variety of different ways. The armor is meant to be used for facing multiple opponents.

• Blumenblatt (Profusion of Swords): Erza will requip a mass amount of swords, and then charge at her opponent and slice him or her with two of her swords. Then she will fly past her enemy and send the swords she requipped into the enemy at the same time.

• Circle Sword: Erza requires swords and has them circle around her by utilizing the command, "Dance, My Blades". The swords then begin spinning rapidly around Erza, and she sends them flying towards her opponent(s) in a disc formation at first and upon impact, the swords separate and fly in different directions dealing great damage.

• Trinity Shot: While in her Heaven's Wheel Armor, Erza slashes the opponent in a delta formation.
• Pentagram Sword: While using the Heaven's Wheel Armor, the user slashes the swords in the shape of a pentagram to attack the target.

Black Wing Armor: This armor increases the destructive power in Erza's attacks. In this form, she only uses one sword or two axes and grows wings, like a bat.

• Moon Flash: Erza rushes past her target, slashing them in a cross pattern.

Flame Empress' Armor: This flame resistant armor lowers the destructive power of flame attacks by 50%. In this form, she has no armor on her shoulders and more on her limbs, the boots closely resembles dragon feet.

The Giant's Armor: In this armor, Erza is able to increase the strength of her throwing power.

Lightning Empress' Armor: This armor lowers the attack damage of all thunder attacks aimed at Erza. Laxus stated that it wasn't enough to stand his thunder magic; however, the single attack aimed at Erza did no damage to her.

• Lightning Beam: Erza fires a blue beam of lightning towards her opponent from the tip of the armor's spear.

Flight Armor: This armor features very few armored parts. It is cheetah printed, and the outfit has a large collar around Erza's neck and a tail hanging from the back of her shorts, both made of bushy fur, plus a pair of large cheetah's ears adorning both sides of Erza's head. When wearing this armor, Erza is equipped with a pair of short swords with elaborate hand-guards similar to a rapier's, shaped like a rose's thorns.

• Immense Speed: This armor increases Erza's speed dramatically, to the point where she could match Erza Knightwalker's speed while the latter was using Silfarion. She was also able to keep up with Racer despite being under the effects of his Slowing Magic.
• Sonic Claw: Erza dashes towards her target at high speed and slashes them multiple times from every direction.

Morning Star Armor: This armor, which seems to be mainly composed of a leather-like material, sports many feather-shaped decorations, including the short cape, the pauldrons protruding from under it, and the cloth circling Erza's waist, held up by a simple belt on the front. She dons a one piece suit revealing her legs, whose upper part is covered by fishnet leggings, and with high-heeled armored greaves with large knee guards covering her calves. Her arms are heavily armored as well. In this outfit, Erza's hair is styled in tangled buns on top of her head, and she's armed with a pair of simple swords with cross-shaped hand-guards, getting larger near the edges, and blades which seem to lack the standard cutting edges.

• Photon Slicer: By pointing the twin swords towards her opponent, Erza is capable of releasing a large blast at them.

Piercing Armor: A set of armor Erza equipped into to pierce Kyôka through Cube. This set consists of a breastplate, waistguard, gauntlets and leg plates, which all feature a greenish-silver tint. Each pauldron dons the Fairy Tail emblem and her leg plates are designed decoratively. The armor is worn with black pants, brown elbow pads underneath the gauntlets and complemented with an olive belt that is tied above the waistguard. It is unknown if this armor has any additional abilities that are independent from the weapon.

• Piercing: This armor comes equipped with a large, silver jousting lance that features well-decorated designs over its vamplate and has shown the capability to pierce and penetrate an opponent through a mass as large as a fortress.

Sea Empress Armor: This armor nullifies water attacks.

• Water Magic: This armor allows Erza to charge her sword with water and release powerful whirlpools aganist her opponent.
• Water Slash: While in the Sea Empress Armor, the user charges the blade of the sword with water and then attacks the target with water.

Nakagami Armor: A set of armor Erza had the ability to don once she released her Second Origin. Anyone who is able to wear the armor will be able to dispel Magic and wield a peerless sword. Erza is capable of cutting through space using this armor.

• Nakagami Starlight: An attack that slashes midair and cuts a hole through it and open the space. She used this to bypass Minerva's spatial magic.

Wingblade Armor: This armor takes form of a beautiful gown, with a hem sprouting from it, being tied with a belt of some sort. The upper part of the dress includes shoulderless sleeves and a flower petal on the user's left hand, while the foot wearings are a pair of knee-high heel boots. In addition to all of this, the armor consists of swords being used for various purposes, albeit primarily as wings, adding to the peculiarity.

• Blade Wings: The outfit comes equipped with wings, apparently made of swords, that can act as a shield. Moreover, any of the aforementioned swords can be also easily summoned and used for offensive purposes.The swords can "dance" on command in mid-air, similar to the circle of swords of the Heaven's Wheel Armor, in order to attack multiple foes simultaneously. According to Erza, these swords are capable of landing blows without making direct contact, allowing her to bypass other her foes' defenses.

Wind God Armor: This armor takes the form of a tribal-type robe that covers the wearer's upper body in a waist coat-like garb. The neckline is topped with fur along with a dark streak underneath said fur, with short hanging sleeves that end with a triangular pattern along the hem. A fur lined sash that sits beneath the wearer's bust and above the bust keeps the garb tied up and the ends of the coat fanned out by the wearer's thighs. Along the user's forearms are white bandages strapped around them from the wrist to below the elbow. The lower portion of the armor consists of a pair of dark pants and light, shin high boots where the tongue is flanked by the main body of the boot flaring out slightly. The armor is completed with a pair of wings that sit either side of the wearer's head and with the wearer's hair tied into a low ponytail. The armor is also armed with the Sea Empress Sword, instead of having the circular element mounted on the pommel it makes up the guard of the hilt instead.

• Wind Manipulation: This armor equips Erza with the Wind God Sword, allowing her to manipulate wind strong enough to blow away the sand conjured by Ajeel Ramal.
• Water Manipulation: This armor allows Erza to utilize her Sea Empress Sword's aquatic properties, which are capable enough to harden Ajeel's sand and cause him harm.

Sword Magic: In addition to her signature Magic, Requip, Erza is also an extremely talented user of Sword Magic. As the name implies, this is a type of Magic which revolves around the use of swords. Through the use of this Magic, Erza is capable of using her swords to perform different Magical attacks. This is usually done in combination with specific armors of hers, which makes her a very deadly combatant. It is also shown that she can also combine different armors with other swords from other armors to either block or attack using deadlier force and mixing different elements together.

• Demon Blade Crimson Sakura: A sword spell wherein Erza focuses all her Magic Power into the blade for maximum offense.

Telekinesis: Erza is also a skilled user of Telekinesis. The first time she used this Magic, however, was accidental. When she was a child in the Tower of Heaven she used this Magic to levitate discarded weapons from the ground and launch them at her enemies, something which she did inadvertently, due to the shock caused by Rob's death. Erza's most common use of Telekinesis comes with her Sword Magic, in which she can perform different attacks by controlling her swords remotely.

Johnny - 0

Erza - 0

Bump

Bump

I really can't decide between these two...

Empathetic Manipulation seems really helpful in making Ezra stop fighting him along with his firearms allowing him the range advantage, but Ezra has a ton of different armor sets that can immediately replace any damage she took.

Inconclusive, but how good is his Empathetic Manipulation?

Gotta go with my man Johnny Gat on this one. Far more powers, plus some hax abilities on his side. (soul blasts and aura powers should be especially useful here) He can summon Imps and Titans to aid him in the fight, potentially keep Erza in one place with Vacuum Stomp, and use his already ridiculous standard equipment to make things that much worse for her.

Plus, homie can fly.

Ezra can fly too, honestly a narrow Johnny victory though I can see this as inconclusive.

I think I will go for inconclusive as well, since Erza can handle his summoning via telekinesis with her swords. And for everything else they aren't that different, thou i am a little on on gat's side here as he has a little more hax than Erza.

Still, inconclusive for now.

Honestly? I don't see Erza faring well if she gets Soul blasted, or if Gat's Worship Aura forces her to her knees and prevents her from attacking. As far as I can remember, she doesn't have resistance to any of that.

As per its capabilities, his Coldfire Aura will harm her even if she has on her fire-resistant armor. Vamp Aura will just flat-out life-drain her and (IIRC) she doesn't have a counter for that either.

And if he gets the Boom-Chicka or the Last Supper, then he has yet another means of preventing her from attacking him.

Yeah I'm gonna have to switch to Johnny for the Kings reasons.

It's true that Gat has more hax in this battle but remmeber that with Nakagmi armor Erza can one shot, her wingblade armor ignores any defence so she is hitting him directly and her telekinesis can cause a rain of hundreds of swords on him from point blank range also she has water attacks against his flames with a fire resistant armor as she can combine her armors with her swords him so generally she has her fair amount of options that he can't do a lot about.

Still he does has some advantage since his hax are larger in number, but the fact that Erza can potentially even one shot i won't make me go further from inconclusive for now.

Also,did you see Erza's Stamina in confront to his...

Getting in close range is the death of her considering his weaponry gets stronger and will affect Erza once she gets close because if the so much as blocks a bullet, they'll still take affect.

If she switches in Nakgami armor in close combat she can one shot or she can use Wingblade and completly ignore his weapons and hit him directly.

Also superhuman stamina vs extremely large... So he goes down by much less than her.

Also Erza doesn't have to touch his bullets to block them as she has magical and elemental attacks.

I don't think you read my comment......

No, if she uses Nakagami and gets close to using it, Gat gets even stronger and his weapons will be uneffected by Erza blocking them or not, while Erza still needs to hit him, and this is a guy who can handle Satan himself.

Flight armor will make Gat captilaize on the range advantage he has.

I mean Nakagami armor ignores durabilty so him getting stronger is not that important and as I told you Erza doesn't have to touch the bullies as she ton of magical and elemental attacks.

And in range game Erza has huge stamina advantage and can just keep counter and or dodging his attacks while he gets extremely tired while with her stamina she will be quite fine.

"He can face Satan himself" why is that an argument?

Gat since he is more likely to use his hax earlyer (or even at the start of the fight) than Erza is.

As to Gats weapons, most of them, and all they need to do is make contact with her, unlike Erza who needs a clean strike on him.

Huge stamina advantage should help with that as Erza needs less to take him down.

Actually, with Gats massive arsenal and Erza only having Nakagami armor, I'd say at needs less.

None of his arsenal can one shot while Nakagami armor can, plus Erza can use her own magical attacks to take him down as she generally needs less hits so if you say he gets stronger in close combat that only evens the chances.

.......

You're kidding right? Gat's armor can't one shot...You're being 100% not serious here right?

Which can one shot I seriously didn't see any that one shots???

As King has pointed out Boom Chika can seal the deal with Empathetic manipulation turning Erza into Gat's friend, (Or maybe beyond that...)

Blast and Arc of the Covenant have soul Manipulation, though this I'm not sure if it one shots but it's still a huge help considering she has no reistances.

Lava manipulation will also be a huge problem if she isn't wearing her Flame Empress armor.

The soul one can't one shot apparently and how much stronger the damage is kinda just guessing but he would still need multiply direct hits like with any other weapon maybe just less hits.

Lava manipulation can be countered with 2 of her Water swords and fire empress armor and considering the speed she requips I am pretty sure she can requip fast enough or just summon a water weapon when necessary as she requiped fast enough even against Laxus's attack who is faster than her and this is speed equaliszed battle.

For emphatic manipulation not sure if he gets that weapon (if it's a weapon)here.

The hit could but won't necessarily happen also if it's a ray of energy that hits the opponent and makes the your friend I would say he needs to hit her body which is mostly protected by her armor and she also has a sword and magical attack to block it or dodge it.

Anyway the main point is emphatic manipulation is kinda the only thing that could one shot but looks kinda unlikely as @weekly should tell us if he has it would he use it considering just how many weapons he has and which he prefers to use and 3 how it exactly works.

Thou this also evens the things as she has one for one shot and he may have one for one shot, he has weapons that do more damage but she has far greater stamina so she needs less hits.

In general this is again just inconclusive for me.

Wait how can she use two water swords and the flame empress armor? I'm pretty sure those are reserved for each armor...

Nope,She can combine any weapon with any armor as they are separated,but simply belong to the same set. This is unknown for Nakagami weapon as that looks like a special case. Of course only weapons as combining armors is not an option for her, yet that would be pretty cool lol.

WilliamShadow said:

Yes, he gets Boom Chica

1. Soul blast won't one-shot her. IIRC it just staggers/immobilizes upon hit. That's still a big factor, though.

2. Durability and stamina mean nothing when your opponent has two (potentially three) means of preventing you from attacking and two means of preventing you from even moving. She's most likely going to be immobile for most of this fight once he gets his momentum going, and that's not even taking into account whether or not the Boom-Chicka's effects will last even while Johnny's beating the crap out of her. (I can't remember if hitting/attacking enemies is enough to stop the effects of the weapon or not.)

3. If the two of them stick to flying, Gat has an even better chance of hitting her.

4. Coldfire Aura isn't a random fire that she can just put out with water. It's literally an aura that sets people on fire when they're within range. Even then, the flames have freezing properties as well (hence the name), so I doubt water would really do anything to them.

5. Forgot to mention, but Shadow Blast is also a thing. If he hits her with that, it'll slow her down to a snail's pace. Yet another means for him to reduce her mobility.

TL;DR: Gat wears her out with hax and ranged attacks before she can do anything too dangerous, and from there onwards, it's his game to win.

Also, i need to add descriptions for the 7 Sins weapons, but Arc of the Covenant liteally sucks out the opponent's soul and turns it into a weapon. Soul Blast is technically a oneshot as well, but only if it hits, it literally destroys the soul after a brief moment of suspending the opponet in mid-air.

In this case in turns it into armor?

We could keep up for a while but we talk about weapon use timings and how the battle proceeds regarded range and h2h and both can finish this battle as winner with Gat simply having a higher chance for having more hax, but i will limit my self on everything I said until now and leave the inconclusive as my vote.

Umm.....

That's what it does, yeah. Christ, it's been so long since I exposed myself to Gat Out Of Hell.

Anywho, that just makes this even more of a win for him. He's already got several ways to open her up for the kill, and with the ability to one-shot, she's done.

@weekly If soul blast has that effect than feel free to switch my vote on Gat.

I think that puts us at 4 votes for Johnny.

5 actually

Gat FTRA

Gatty boi for reasons above as well.

In that case Cal just add the match since its 7-0.

Well we still have grace period.

Unanimous matche bypass durability...I mean the grace period.
