Death Battle Discussion

[OrlandoSky]

controversial could mean a lot of things. Either it's a character everyone dislikes (most isekai characters), or if a character people want but a match-up they didn't want (Galactus vs Anti-Monitor or Beerus instead of Unicron for example) or one that has a fanbase that will get heated regardless (Dragon Ball/Ben 10/Star Wars/Bleach) or a match-up that will inevitably cause a shitstorm regardless of which combatant wins (Dante vs Kratos, or Goku vs literally anyone) or it's a match-up people will feel doesn't deserve to be a season finale (Light/Columbo) or a lol memes character (Deadpool/Bendy/Slenderman/Cereal Mascot Battle Royale)

People seem to think Liam is voicing Morty in the Sneak Peek like he once voiced Popeye for a DB

Don't know if it's just a shitpost. But that's funny, if it's true

List of Death Battle episodes in YouTube views per season. Keep in mind this only accounts for YT views, I'm counting minisodes and ads, also keep in mind the TMNT Battle Royale and Beerus VS Sailor Galaxia episodes were taken down, so TMNT's views is based on the re-upload and Beeraxia is based on the amount of views it had before it was taken down. Also keep in mind that the views in Seasons 1-3 had a massive viewership boost because of the RoosterTeeth merger.

Here are the numbers for those curious (as of the time I wrote these down):

Asked the AI to generate some matches for a new season of death battle. lets see what it comes up with.

Darth Vader (Star Wars) vs. Lord Voldemort (Harry Potter): Both characters are iconic villains in their respective universes, known for their powerful and dark abilities. Vader's command of the Force and lightsaber skills against Voldemort's mastery of dark magic and Horcruxes would create an intense and unpredictable battle.

Lara Croft (Tomb Raider) vs. Nathan Drake (Uncharted): Both are treasure hunters and skilled adventurers with a penchant for uncovering ancient artifacts. A battle between them would not only be a test of physical prowess but also of wit, strategy, and survival skills.

Something people have wanted to see for a while iirc

Samus Aran (Metroid) vs. Master Chief (Halo): Both are heavily armored space warriors with advanced technology at their disposal. Their fight could be a fantastic display of high-tech weaponry and armor abilities, with a focus on their respective skills in alien combat environments.

OOF

Geralt of Rivia (The Witcher) vs. Cloud Strife (Final Fantasy VII): This fight pits two swordsmen from different fantasy worlds against each other. Geralt's monster-hunting experience and magical signs would clash interestingly with Cloud's SOLDIER training and Materia magic.

God damn AI 2 stomp matches in a row?

Mega Man (Mega Man) vs. Astro Boy (Astro Boy): Both characters are iconic robots with a human-like appearance and a vast array of abilities. A battle between them would be a spectacular showcase of robotic powers and moral perspectives.

Could be neat

Geralt of Rivia (The Witcher) vs. Link (Legend of Zelda)
Rationale: Geralt and Link are both swordsmen with a rich background in battling mythical creatures. Their skills in swordplay, magic, and the use of various potions or items make them a compelling pair to see in combat. The fight would be a blend of magic, sword-fighting, and strategy.

the man cannot catch a break

Samus Aran (Metroid) vs. Iron Man (Marvel)
Rationale: Both characters are known for their high-tech suits, which provide them with a wide array of weaponry and abilities. This fight would be a showcase of futuristic technology and firepower, with both characters having to adapt quickly to each other's arsenal.

Now this is a much better fight

Kratos (God of War) vs. Sauron (Lord of the Rings)
Rationale: Kratos, known for his god-slaying abilities, against Sauron, the embodiment of evil in Middle-Earth, would be a clash of raw power and dark magic. This battle would be epic in scale, featuring Kratos' brute strength and rage against Sauron's magical prowess and strategic mind.

I feel like sauron wins this one

Shovel Knight (Shovel Knight) vs. Arthur (Ghosts 'n Goblins)
Rationale: This battle would be a nostalgic nod to classic platforming games. Both characters have unique fighting styles - Shovel Knight with his shovel blade and Arthur with his arsenal of weapons. It would be a fun, whimsical fight with a focus on strategy and agility.

another neat fight

Jin Sakai (Ghost of Tsushima) vs. Roronoa Zoro (One Piece)
Rationale: A battle between two expert swordsmen from different cultures. Jin Sakai's samurai skills and disciplined fighting style contrast with Zoro's more unconventional, yet incredibly effective, three-sword fighting technique. This would be a visually stunning and technically impressive battle.

lol
lmao even
kek perhaps
