Battle Help me settle a debate.. Ichigo vs Naruto (Baryon Mode Naruto vs Ichigo True Bankai)

2 Upvotes

Help me settle a debate. My friend is insistent on the fact that Naruto beats Ichigo. Also claims Naruto is universal, and that Ichigo is only planet level. He is very hard-headed like me. For all the folks who know powerscaling, who's stronger? Both characters at peak forms, 1v1, fight to death.

Battle Friend v. Friend

1 Upvotes

Context: My groupchat saw a video on IG with a potential "field day" game where two players stand 10 ft from each other with a knife in the middle and they wrestle for the knife. One guy in the chat (J) said he would let a girl in the chat (C) start with the knife and he would still be able to outwrestle her. NOW, after two weeks of this (lol) both J and C are very much confident that they would "stomp" the other.

In a pure hand-to-4 inch knife fight, J and C to fatally wound/incapacitate the other, who wins?

J: Man, 28, 5'6"(?), 160-170lbs, works a cubicle job, did wrestling for 4-5 months as a kid, claims to do "pushups at home" but basically has not exercised for 4 years.
Last words in the group chat: "bro, jacket over the arm strat and rear naked choke"

C: Woman, 28, 5'1-2"(?), 115lbs, routinely runs and works out.
Last words in chat: "shwing shwing"

Challenge Could Chucky (Child's Play) manage to defeat Zombie!Jason (FT13TH Part 6+) and disable him long enough to steal his body?

5 Upvotes

Had been wondering about this for a while since picking up Terrordrome again. In Chucky's story mode, he's trying to challenge the best of the best-as far as slashers go-and his story ends up with him finding Zombie!Jason lurking in the woods. He calls him out and they brawl. Chucky wins and ends up taking Jason's body for his own using the same incantation he'd have used on Andy.

My question here is do y'all think that Chucky could realistically defeat/disable Jason long enough by himself to DO the body swap voodoo magic? Chucky has all his spells from the movies + TV show/his trusty knife and Jason is from Part 7(where I felt he was the most angriest) and when Chucky comes across him, he's skulking around the woods with just his machete in hand.

Chucky calls out to alert Jason to his presence. Chucky doesn't want to 'kill' Jason but Jason is fully bloodlusted. The setting is the woods near the proper campgrounds of Crystal Lake.

Battle Mike Tyson has invincible hands and wrists, who is the physically strongest animal he can kill or KO for more than half an hour before he gasses out?

Upvotes

Elite boxers can punch very hard. For example, Frank Bruno's strongest punch could deliver 6320Ns/1420lbs/0.71 US tons/0.645 tons of force, being comparable to that of a padded, 13lbs/6kg heavy wooden mallet getting swung at 9 m/s or 20mph.

For some comparisions:

To be fair, Mike Tyson has actually lower KO rate in his wings in comparision to Frank Bruno (7/8 or %88 of Tyson vs 19/20 or %95 of Frank Bruno), but Tyson still should be at the very least quite close or roughly comparable to Frank Bruno in terms of striking force.

This all sounds very impressive, right? But this only works on paper. In reality, human hands are fragile and are prone to break. The primary reason boxers wear gloves is because if they don't they have a risk of breaking their own hands meanwhile punching, which protects their hands. BUT, boxing gloves has the cost of reducing the amount of pressure fists do because boxing gloves have signficiantly larger surface are compared to that of a human fist.

So, instead of giving Tyson gloves, what if we give him invincible hands and wrists?

Rules:

  • Tyson's hands and wrists are invincible and he will not gonna damag ehimself meanwhile punching
  • The animal Tyson's punching can't move and will gonna do nothing but sitting in front of a concrete wall until Tyson gets tired to a point he can't properly fight anymore.
  • If Tyson manages to kill or KOs it more than half an hour before he gets very tired he wins. But if he fails than the animal is going to attack him
  • Tyson can't cheat the battle. For example, he can't anal-fist the animal in the question, or shove his arm into it's throat.

What is the strongest animal Tyson can beat under these conditions?

Battle Question: what magical group is the most powerful (be it in arcane power or political influence) in Tamriel of all time? I assume it’s the Psijic Order? Does College of Winterhold in Shalidor’s time take the cake? What about Clan Direnni, Crystal Tower of Summerset, or House Telvanni?

0 Upvotes

This is a question about Powerscaling, and it is on all fronts: influence as WELL as magical prowess and might.

Shalidor era-Winterhold is different from Skyrim Winterhold, so I’m talking about the most powerful versions of each.

Battle Thor (MCU) VS Demogorgon (Forgotten Realms)

1 Upvotes

Thor from the MCU is on one of his zany adventures when he comes across a particularly talented Ixitxachitl who's successfully summoning his demonic master. Demogorgon is brought out of the Abyss and into the MCU. Thor has to fight this thing to stop it from eating a bunch of alien school children. Who wins between the strongest demon in all of the Abyss and a particularly powerful god from the Marvel movies? Is a super high tier D&D enemy like Demogorgon too much for Thor, or is he just too high above the power scale of the Forgotten Realms?

Battle takes place on a neutral planet. There are a bunch of cute little kids on the other side of the world that Demogorgon is gonna eat if Thor doesn't stop him.

Respect Threads!

Thor and Demogorgon, though Demogorgon didn't do a whole lot while on the Prime Material Plane!


  • Round 1: Thor is unarmed.

  • Round 2: Thor has Stormbreaker.

  • Bonus Round: Who is the weakest MCU character that would be needed to beat Demogorgon in a fight? The strongest the Prince of Demons beats?

Challenge Can Brenden Fraser's character from The Whale become a successful marathon runner?

2 Upvotes

Fraser's character in the film is a morbidly obese man with very high blood pressure who is incapable of walking. If he woke up one day with a burning desire to run a marathon, and if he had access to enough money for a healthy diet and a few personal trainers, could he get himself into enough shape to run a marathon. And not an 'easy' marathon for old people, but a marathon that most young people would find difficult. If it is possible what would this journey look like? And if he could not, how far is someone in his condition likely to get.

I'm basically asking if there is a point in obesity where you become incapable of ever turning it around completely.

Battle Thor (Marvel Comics) VS Wonder Woman (Marvel Comics)

Upvotes

Thor, the Asgardian God of Thunder and son of Odin.

Wonder Woman, warrior princess of Themyscira and daughter of Hippolyta.

It is often said superheroes are the closest modern-day equivalents to ancient myths, and perhaps for no one else is that description as...Literal as these two peerless. Hailing from lands of valour and justice, these two founding heroes enter the world of man to prove that prayers can be answered in a very...Direct fashion. But, in a classic match of Avenger VS Justice Leaguer, will the prince of the golden realm claim victory, or will the archetypal wonder prove her victory the truth of the matter? You better believe, because it’s time to find out!

Standard source material for a Marvel/DC match (IE Pre-Crisis, Post-Crisis, New 52 and all the rest of mainline DC for Wondy, and Earth-616 for Thor), both are Bloodlusted, let's watch a clash of titans.

Challenge Could Iron Man stop civilization from collapsing in TWD's universe?

99 Upvotes

MCU Iron Man is dropped into The Walking Dead universe on Day 1 of the outbreak.

He doesn't know the outbreak's real cause going in: the pathogen is already latent in every living human, not just something spread by bites. This isn't revealed in-universe until the CDC arc, so no meta-knowledge.

Goal isn't "survive." Goal is: prevent a full civilizational collapse while buying time for someone (anyone or himself) to find a cure or containment method and get back to normal.

Could he do it?

I haven't really read any of the halo books yet, but I remember hearing how spartan energy shields can tank small arms fire and it just barely drains the shields.

Though I do remember master chief crashing down from outer space though granted if I remembered right he got lucky.

Since other Spartan's who did the same thing either straight up died or are too injured to continue fighting which I find impressive technology to keep the user alive from getting mulched on impact.

Battle Can humanity stop an army of superhumans from conquering the world?

10 Upvotes

10 superhumans each appear in the capital of every country in the world (1,950 in total). Their goal is to collectively conquer the world as soon as possible by any means necessary. They have as much knowledge about the world as an average Westerner.

Can humanity stop them?

The superhumans have super strength (10 tons), durability (it takes a direct hit by an 20mm armor piercing projectile or more to kill them), speed (Mach 1), reflexes (millisecond reaction time), flight (Mach 1), healing (their bodies are completely rejuvenated once a day), stamina (they only need to sleep once a week) and omnilingualism (they speak and understand every language).

How do you think John Wick would do if you dropped him into The Furious? Wick has some wicked dangerous fighting skills, but can he compete in a modern Hong Kong martial arts action bonanza? John is tracking down some dog traffickers and ends up in an ice factory. A big bald dude proceeds to try to beat him to death. John reciprocates the gesture. Who wins the fight?

For reference: John Wick Respect Thread and here are two of Ho's fights!

Battle Koopa Troop (Super Mario) vs Equestria (My Little Pony G4) army fight

Upvotes

This is a matchup I’ve actually wanted to see Death Battle or fan channels like Fan Battle and Fan War do for a while now because I vibe with the whole “kingdom made from different species of creatures” thing.

Okay now let’s just get started

Round 1:
Bowser has the mainline Mario games, the mobile games, all the RPGs, all the Mario Kart, Paper Mario and Mario Party games, all the booklets, the official Nintendo Youtube channels, side series (such as the Wario Land games or Donkey Kong games), the Mario Sports (like Strikers or Tennis) games and the Illumination duology accounted for him and his army

Equestria has the mainline Friendship is Magic show, all Equestria Girls media and all the IDW comics canons (excluding the Transformers and Generations crossovers) accounted for it. G5 show and comics are viable, but only for Spike and Discord (since they’re the only G4 characters who show up in them anyway lol)

Koopa Troop army members: Bowser (with access to Giant Bowser, Meowser, Dry Bowser (the one that’s a form of Bowser), Fury Bowser, Castle/Wonder Bowser and Dreamy Bowser), Bowser Junior (with access to Shadow Mario, Wonder Bowser Jr, and Fury Bowser Jr from the Galaxy Movie), Kamek, all of the Koopalings (with access to their Wonder Forms), King Boo (Luigi’s Mansion + all other media that fits the above criteria for what to account for the Koopa Troop), King Bob-omb, Goomboss, King Whomp, Petey Pirahna, Gooper Blooper, Kammy Koopa, Dry Bowser (the one that’s a separate character from Bowser himself), Kamella, Boom Boom, Pom Pom, General Guy, the Ruined Dragon, Megaleg, Prince Frog, Bunson the Hot Dog, all members of the Elite Trio, Madame Broode, all of the Broodals, the Koopa General from the 2023 movie, all members of the Elite Captain Quartet (from Bowser’s Minions), and every single standard Koopa Troop member (with access to Fake/Imposter Bowser)

Koopa Troop arsenal: Bowser’s castle airship (from the 2023 movie), all the airships from the games, Mecha Bowser (from Sunshine), Bowser’s mech (from Mario Party: Star Rush), the Muscle Car, all the Clown Cars, all the Karts, all the Tanks, Bowser Junior’s paintbrush, all wands, all standard minion weapons (A Hammer Bros’s hammer etc), the Star Rod, the Bubble Cloning Machine, the Boomsday Machine, the Pure Hearts, the Dream Stone, the Wonder Flower, the Pixls, the Power, Grand and Super Stars, all items from the spinoffs (the Mario Kart Blue Shell etc), all sports equipment and all the power up items (including the double cherries and the items from the RPGs and Paper Mario games)

Equestria army members: All members of the Mane Six (with access to their Rainbow Power and Power Pony forms), Spike (post-Molt Down, with access to Hum Drum and his giant form from Secret of My Excess), Princesses Celestia, Luna and Cadence, Shining Armor, Flurry Heart, Starlight Glimmer, Sunburst, Trixie Lulamoon, Sunset Shimmer, all the Pillars, Stygian (no Pony of Shadows), all members of the Young/Student Six, Discord, Tempest Shadow, all the Wonderbolts, Autumn Blaze, Prince Rutherford, Thorax, Pharynx, Rain Shine, Queen Novo, Princess Skystar, General Sea Spray, Ember, Dragon Lord Torch, Grampa Gruff, Chief Thunderhooves, Little Strongheart, all members of the Cutie Mark Crusaders (including Gabby and Babs Seed), Gilda, Capper, all members of the each of the Mane Six’s families, Daring Do, Captain Celaeno and all members of her crew, and all heroic/neutral members of the heroic creature tribes/species that make sense to be here (including all royal guards and soldiers and generic hero or neutral characters who don’t really stand out much like Garble, Terramar, Greta, Derpy, Doctor Whooves etc but excluding antagonists like Prince Blueblood or Gladmane)

Equestria arsenal: Captain Celaeno’s ship, all MLP airships (except those owned by the Storm King), the Elements of Harmony, the Alicorn Amulet, the Bewitching Bell, the Crystal Heart, the Rings of Scorchero, Mage Meadowbrook’s eight enchanted items, and all of Starswirl’s magic scrolls

Round 2: Same as Round 1 but Bowser and the Koopa Troop gets Skylanders (including Hammer Slam Bowser and his hammer), the Rabbids crossovers (including the Bowzooka and Mecha Jr but no MegaDragonBowser) and Smash Bros (including Giga Bowser) and Equestria gets the Transformers and Generations crossovers as well

Round 3: Same as Round 1 but Equestria doesn’t have Discord

Round 4: Same as Round 2 but Equestria doesn’t have Discord

All rounds take place on a gigantic open field

I will make a follow up post after a suitable amount of the BOOM! Studios My Little Pony comics are released
