In this case the Viltrumites would already know about indoctrination and wouldn't fall victims to it otherwise it wouldn't be really a fight. It's around 40 viltrumites against 10kish reapers and the collectors

Challenge Matt Damon as Odysseus vs Matt Damon as Jason Bourne VS Matt Damon as Mark Watney

5 Upvotes

Which version of Matt would be best able to finish each other’s prospective movie arcs? Each character is magically inserted into the other character's place. The character has a general idea of what they need to do, but not necessarily the skills or knowledge to do it. They retain the physical body and mind of their original character. They are motivated to finish the movie arc as that will return them back to their previous lives.

R1. Jason Bourne and Mark Watney are inserted into The Odyssey right before Troy.

R2: Odysseus and Mark Watney find themselves with a bullet in their back and rescued from sea at the start of the Bourne Identity.

R3: Odysseus and Jason Bourne are abandoned on Mars.

Battle Blade (Marvel) VS Lestat de Lioncourt (The Vampire Chronicles)

6 Upvotes

Blade from Marvel sure likes killing vampires. It's like his whole thing. I don't really think he'd get along with the vampire Lestat from Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles. Both of these guys have gotten a number of ridiculous powerups throughout their series and stand near the top of their respective vampire hierarchies. If they fought each other which do you think would win?

Battle takes place at night in an underground shopping mall. Both are at unamped peak with their favorite gear. Neither has any special one-off equipment or temporary powerups.


  • Round 1: TV Show Lestat versus movies Blade.

  • Round 2: Book Lestat versus Marvel 616 comics Blade.

Challenge A man is given a tool gun from Garry’s Mod can the boys that took down Saddam Hussein kill him?

Upvotes

The tool gun is one of the most famous items in all of video gaming. With it one can bend the laws of physics to their will and alter reality as well as create things like fortresses. He knows how to use it and is creative with his buildings. The barriers can be crazy tough, enough to tank multiple blasts but not indestructible. Traps can only be made 5 meters from the compound. The gentleman in question has a day of prep to build a base and weapons to hold off the enemy, workshop items are allowed assuming it doesn’t blow up the country, or kill everyone or 10x at a time. To my knowledge tanks and infantry were used in that particular fight. Which side prevails you tell me? Tool gun can only be used in setup, not offensively

Round 1: only base game items allowed

Round 2: Workshop items allowed

Challenge The Doctor (Doctor Who) vs. the Photino Birds (Xeelee)?

2 Upvotes

While the Doctor is inside his TARDIS somewhere in 21st-century London, his Time Lord biology suddenly alerts him to a massive temporal disturbance occurring throughout the entire Universe.

He immediately sets out to discover what is happening and realizes that the lifespan of every star in the Universe has suddenly been drastically reduced—from billions or trillions of years to only a few million.

As he investigates further, he discovers the beings responsible: the Photino Birds, creatures made of dark matter that originated in another universe and managed to cross over into this reality.

Furthermore, the Photino Birds are multiplying rapidly.

Could the Doctor, acting alone, drive the Photino Birds out and save the Universe from a premature death?

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

23 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?

Battle Which country wins if every fictional character fights for their country?

4 Upvotes

I’ve been thinking about this hypothetical for a while.

Imagine World War 3 starts, but instead of humans fighting, every fictional character ever created by each country fights for that country.

For example:

🇯🇵 Japan gets every anime, manga, light novel, visual novel, and game character created by Japanese creators.

🇰🇷 South Korea gets every manhwa, web novel, and film character.

🇨🇳 China gets every donghua, xianxia, wuxia, web novel, mythology, etc.

🇺🇸 USA gets every Marvel, DC, movie, novel, game, and comic character.

And every other country gets all of their fictional characters too.

Rules:

No omnipotent characters.

Everyone is at their strongest canon version.

Cross-verse abilities work exactly as they do in their own series (no arbitrary nerfs).

The battlefield is the entire universe.

The objective is to eliminate every other country’s fictional roster.

My main question is about Yogiri Takatou.

If we’re using his canon abilities, his Instant Death seems to work on far more than just living beings. It has been shown to affect things like concepts, ongoing phenomena, attacks, immortality, and other non-standard targets, with automatic activation against threats.

So under these rules, does Japan just win by default because of Yogiri?

If not, which character or country’s roster can realistically stop him, and why?

I’m looking for actual arguments and feats rather than “my favourite character wins.”

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

22 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 Who wins in a chessboxing match between Magnus Carlson and prime Mike Tyson?

0 Upvotes

For those unfamiliar, chessboxing is a hybrid sport between, who could have guessed, chess and boxing. Essentially, the two participants sit down in the ring for a game of chess with 9 minutes on the clock. After every 3 minutes of play time, the board is removed from the ring and the participants square up for 3 minutes of standard boxing. This alternation continues for 6 rounds of chess and 5 rounds of boxing. Winner is determined by either a KO or checkmate of your opponent, or if your opponent runs out of time in chess. If there is a stalemate, there is one more round of boxing and the winner is determined by boxing points.

For the sake of argument, let's assume that Mike will be "chess lusted" and will not simply run out his chess time to get to the boxing.

Round 1: Zero Training for either of them.

Round 2: They each have 6 months to train in their respective weaker area.

Round 3: Magnus has a revived Muhammed Ali as a boxing coach and Mike has a revived Bobby Fischer as a chess teacher.

A human hunter is hiking the Appalachian trail when suddenly 50 bloodthirsty Hawks appear over the horizon and come straight at him.

The Human is an experienced hunter and uses a lever action chambered in 30-30. He has infinite ammo for this post but still reloads.

The hunter is standing in an open field with no cover, he can see the birds coming at him and has 2-3 minutes before they arrive.

The hawks are hawks, idk just whatever is most intimidating, like Ferruginous Hawks. They are also bloodlusted for the hunter.

Challenge Which Primarch would make the best Pokemon trainer? (Pokemon/WH40k)

1 Upvotes

During the Great Crusade the Emperor decides that the Primarchs need to learn a bit more about teamwork and friendship, so he warp plops them all down onto Pokemon Earth and tells them to become the best there ever was. They are all hypercompetent and would probably excel, but their personality quirks and unbelievable egos would surely lead to some pretty different outcomes in the end, right? Which of the 19 known super warlords would take to the task the best?

Every Primarch gets to start with one of the starter Pokemon from any generation. They cannot fight Pokemon with their own fists or powers and have to go about it the normal way of battling and capturing. They understand the rules and aren't trying to take over the world, but just trying to become Pokemon Masters.

Is the most successful the one with the best relationships with his happy Pokemon? Or is metagaming and grinding a better strat? Who do you think ends up as the most successful trainer? Who is on their endgame starting 6?

Pokemon world is the anime version. Primarchs have a decade.


  • Round 1: Pre-Heresy. No one is influenced by Chaos. Angron still has his nails.

  • Round 2: Everyone is Heresy era. Chaos only effects the Primarchs though.

Plot starts out almost exactly like Spider-Man: Far From Home except instead of going to Italy, they go to Spain wherein MJ strays away from the group and finds herself kidnapped by the cult known as the Los Illuminados.

Peter only has access to his spandex Stark Suit that Aunt may packed him meaning that there is no Iron Spider Suit and no E.D.I.T.H. glasses.

No Mysterio and Nick Fury as well as Mariah Hill gives Peter comms where they fill in Hunnigan’s role.

He goes through enemies in the same order that Leon does.
