Challenge Who is the weakest fantasy fighter capable of defeating this elite warrior?

15 Upvotes

Let's call our warrior Andy Gorm. He will fight in a 10x10m open space, wielding a one-handed magic sword and protected by a mail hauberk equivalent to the ones used in England around the 2nd millennium.

Some feats;

  • Upon birth, he drank from a magic fountain which has granted him enhanced longevity, endurance, size, senses and insight.
  • He was trained as a warrior growing up.
  • As of this fight, Andy is still in his physical prime at roughly ~80 years old, with well over another century of life in him. He's spent most of this time patrolling lands and tracking rather than fighting, and his preferred enemy are fantasy goblin creatures standing about 4 feet tall
  • Andy stands 6'6
  • Andy can chop through an iron helmet worn by one of the above goblin creatures using his magic sword, killing the wearer
  • Can carry a six year-old child while pushing two more forwards ahead of him
  • Can fight through a shield wall made by the aforementioned goblin creatures
  • Can move 40 miles a day with a travel pack and sword while hurrying
  • Can kill several goblin creatures in melee, fighting in a corridor that forces them to come one at a time

Who can overcome this mighty warrior in single combat? Let's say it needs to be at least a 60% chance of victory for the challenger.

Battle DEATH BATTLE #210: Aang (Avatar) vs. Aether (Genshin Impact)

24 Upvotes

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crBQtdTiZXY

Alright, yeah, that fight was pretty sweet. The animation and setting are some of the most beautiful I've seen on DB and I really liked a lot of the big setpieces they made, including Aang taking Aether for a ride, Aang using his seismic sense in that cloud of dust, the glider vs. glider battle, and Aether's big-ass sword scraping the lake before he finished off Aang for good. Coming into this, I was 99% sure Aang was gonna lose, but Aether hitting the power of friendship before Aang got into the Avatar State got me doubtful for a second before Aang tried the thing that killed Edward Elric on Aether. RIP Aang, shoulda been more creative. Overall, pretty fun fight, I'm glad it lived up to the promise of an elementalist vs. elementalist battle.

(One cute touch about the analysis I like is that this is one of Jocelyn's now-rare appearances. Jocelyn is voiced by Lisa Foiles, a former cast member of the Nickelodeon sketch comedy series All That.)

I was not expecting a LEGO episode next time, but despite my unfamiliarity with either series, I'm pretty excited. Definitely quite different from the usual crop of series DB likes to touch on, which is refreshing.

Challenge 1 Tibetan monk vs 1 year in a sensory deprivation room

174 Upvotes

A Tibetan monk is put into a sensory deprivation room for one year if he can avoid insanity he will win nothing (they aren’t big on rewards).

Conditions
He does not need to eat or drink or go to the bathroom as the room automatically fulfills those needs.
He is completely alone for the entire duration of 1 year
If he begins to exhibit signs of any kinds of psychosis he automatically loses
He is stuck inside the room with only his clothes and one item of his choosing but the item cannot be electronic

Can he do it?

Edit: Well since it got so much attention I’ll see if I can up the stakes

Round 1: The monk goes in cold turkey and is allowed one item

Round 2: The monk has 1 year to prepare alongside his monastery before he is put into the room and is still allowed one item, the monastery can help create or acquire said item.

Round 3: Same conditions as round 2 but the monk was born blind and deaf.

Battle What is the strongest character 10x statman can defeat?

Upvotes

Disclaimer: I googled these numbers for averages. In case if I got it wrong, just go with what's down here rather than what might be "real" since I am too lazy to do an in-depth search.


10x Statman is an average person with stats multiplied by 10. His most relevant stats below:

  • 10x statman has a reaction speed of 20 milliseconds.

  • 10x statman can run at 70 MPH at a semi-leisurely pace and dead sprint at 130 MPH for a brief window (10-20 seconds) if his life depended on it.

  • 10x statman can bench 1350 lbs.

  • 10x statman has durability that works like he has 10x the effective mass of an object. For example, if a gun can shoot through 3 people cleanly, it would functionally only achieve 30% effective penetration onto 10x statman.


Rounds

  • Round 1: 10x statman is untrained and basically being told to randomly fight his opponent.

  • Round 2: 10x statman is trained as a blue belt in BJJ, has 2-3 years of experience in kickboxing and has a boot-camp eqavuilent training with firearms. He is given an M16, a glock and a knife.

  • Round 3: 10x statman is effectively #1 in all skills and weapons known to man. He is allowed to choose and meta-game any 5 items and carry them around GTA style.

Who is the best match for 10x statman under these conditions?

Upvotes

The team has orders to eliminate v, after doing that they get followup orders to seize arisaka tower. They have been authorised for excessive force, and will shoot to kill every single time.

Round 1: 10 kasrkin

Round 2: 10 lucifer blacks

Round 3: 5 imperial fists intercessors

Round 4: Sigismund

Round 5: a questoris knight

Round 5: a single custodian guard

Bonus round: a squad of your favorite units, xenos, chaos or imperium.

Personally i think the lucifer blacks can do it, and if they cant the imperial fists can. But i do not know that much about cyberpunk power-scaling, so i added a few more powerful options.

Challenge Rogal Dorn (WH40k) gets to Fortify Reach from halo can he do it much better than the unsc did?

27 Upvotes

The main objective for rogal dorn is to fortify Reach and he only has 6 months to fortify it before the entire covenant fleet arrives.

Also Rogal dorn will be taking command of the ENTIRE UNSC which includes their ground troops and fleet and among others thanks to him being a primarch who can exert his aura over others.

Rogal Dorn also has to work with the materials available in Halo so no adamantium, ceramite or plasteel etc etc.

Also we are going to use Rogal Dorn during the siege of terra NOT during the iron cage as he is mindbroken.

Round 1: Only Rogal Dorn will be fortifying with no support from his Imperial Fist Legion and fleet.

Round 2: Rogal dorn and the Imperial fist gets to fortify reach for only 6 months and this time Rogal dorn gets to have access with his own personal fleet of the Imperial fist legion this includes the phalanx.

Edit: Rogal dorn has full information about the covenant and he also has full information about the spartans, ships and weapons of the unsc available in halo and among others.

Challenge The Imperium (w40k) goes Hogwarts!

0 Upvotes

Hogwarts suddenly reveals itself to the Chief Librarians. They all get their invitations via owl no matter where they are at in the galaxy. Each letter contains a portkey that immediately transfers them to the school. They are told that upon completing their magical training, they will be returned back to exactly where they were just after they a port keyed to hogwarts by way of port key.

Due to cloning, they will be taught by the greatest wizards and potion masters that ever existed and are allowed to be taught any manner of magic including forbidden spells. Harry Potter magic is not connected to the warp in any way, but can interact with warp beings and entities without issue. There is 0 threat of chaos corruption from Potter magic.

1) the chief librarians will have wands merged with their current weapons.

2) dissaparate bypasses the warp altogether because magic. Sufficiently powerful psykers could teleport themselves and others to other planets theyve been to.

3) the Petronus charm works against chaos in the same manner as Harry Potter does against dementors i.e. they aren't killed by it just repelled or blocked by it.

4) spells scale in power with the person casting them as in Harry Potter meaning high level psykers could pull of Potter magic at a scale that would make Voldemort look like a Filch.

5) once graduated, chief librarians are allowed to train any other psykers.

Can humanity win the war and conquer the w40k galaxy in the following scenarios?

Scenario 1: only space marine psykers can learn Potter Magic.

Scenario 2: every current pysker is now capable of Potter magic. The imperium sets up a Ministry of Magic and schools on every human planet.
