    Don't forget though, teams change each round.

    Can't see how Scare Hood could cause a threat to Savage Predator. Savage is immortal and very old, so wise. Hood is human effectively so would the weakest of the four imo.

    Scare's is the third weakest of the four, so his partnership with Hood does not bode will for the future. I can't see them beating the other two.

    Savage Predator far too strong and take this one easily.



    Yes he is human but has been enhanced to the level where he has gone toe to toe with Wolverine in hand to hand combat, and his ability for reality manipulation makes him useful for distracting a foe for his partner to pick them off. But his partner in this case is the problem. Scarecrow just is not a heavy hitter, and even his Scarebeast persona can be taken down by well trained humans with no powers.

    So against someone as experienced and skilled as Savage, with a predator in tow, I can only see Team Savage Predator winning this one.

    Scarecrow is the the weak link in this and Hood doesn't have what it takes to take down both Vandal Savage and a Yautja.

    The Savage Predator wins this one.

    Savage Predator 3-0. No real surprise there for me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,905 ✭✭✭✭Handsome Bob


    I think Savage could sit this one out and the Predator could still make quick work of both The Hood and Scarecrow. The Pred will put a safe distance between himself and his prey so Scarecrow's fear toxin will be of no use, so that will leave our alien friend with a nice clean shot at Scarecrow's head.

    The Hood will use his invisibility and ability to walk on air to scan the buildings of Gotham in order to see who eliminated the Scarecrow. However, I have a sneaking suspicion that the Predator's vision might allow him to still see Parker, in spite of being cloaked in invisibility. So that leaves the Pred with another clean shot at the head of the Hood.

    Savage & Predator FTW

    Pred & Savage would dominate this, scarecrow wouldn't even get time to counter.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,746 ✭✭✭✭FewFew


    If predator wants to kill these two clowns, which he does, then they're toast. In the past, Predator always gets beaten because he's saving the big hero til last (only have the films to go on here.) but if he just wanted to kill them, they'd be dead men. He's not some sort of dashing hero, he's the sort that'll wipe out a whole gang without taking a bullet.

    Three red lines form in a triangle on the Hood's head, he doesn't react fast enough and there's suddenly a hole in his head. Scarecrow, spared because he doesn't have an obvious weapon, can't see his attacker but sprays the area with his gas. He sees the gas cloud come to life and move towards him. Predator's mask filters the effects and Scarecrow gets an extendable claw through the ribcage.

    Savage looks on, wondering where he put his slippers.

    Savage Predator - win.

    L.m too late but I just want to agree with everyone else :o
    Predator/ Savage win.

    BATTLE 7

    HAWKMAN & ANGEL
    225px-Hawkman_Morales.jpgdavid-boreanaz-angel.jpg

    VS

    MOON KNIGHT & AMADEUS CHO

    LOCATION:
    DENVER, COLORADO
    denver-city-park-skyline-3-b.jpg

    Angel has recruited hawkman to help him hunt down a maniac who is skinning his victim's faces, but leaving them alive. he believes the perpetrator is human. Meanwhile Moon Knight discovering someone is after him has recruited young Mr. Cho to help him devise a way to throw the pursuer(s) off his trail, permanently or otherwise


  • Registered Users Posts: 44,080 ✭✭✭✭Micky Dolenz


    I maybe a bit bias here but this is how this goes down.

    CHQ is explaining his extravagant plan to Moon Kinight, all the while, Hawkman and Angel are perched high above watching and waiting.

    They strike, CHQ calculates how quickly Angel can cover the distance at current speed, CHQ gets his answer just as Angel snaps his neck.

    Now, It's two on one. Hawkman and Angel know that MoonKnight is an honourable and worthy opponent, but against both of them, he has not a chance, while Moon Knight is a modern day warrior, these two lads have been warriors in different ages, they have the numbers and the know how.

    Angel-Hawk for the win

    Angel is evil and is very cunning at the same time. He recruits Hawkman to the dirty work for him but at the same time Hawkman is playing it sly by leaving his victims alive and leaving a reminder of his capabilities on the victims.

    Moon Knight is smart for discovering some is after him but he recruits Mr Cho who uses a different form of attack by making it hard for the enemies to get near him for a while.

    Angel's cunningness will be able to limit Mr Cho and then Hawkman will go in for the attack.

    Hawkman & Angel for the win


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 44,501 ✭✭✭✭Deki


    Hawkman is first to be attacked by Moon Knight. Aiming the cannons of the Mooncoptor not at Hawkman's body, but at his wings, Moon Knight manages to damage them enough to cause Hawkman to lose control. Hawkman crashes into one of Denvers tallest buildings and spirals full speed into the sidewalk below.

    Cho has predicted Angels arrival using his mathematical genius. By controlling electrical signals Cho sends a giant lighting rod to fall from atop another tall tower to penetrate Angel's heart. For good measure Moon Knight tosses an axe slashing through the air of the mile high city, separating the angel faced demon's head from his still thrashing body.

    Cho and Moon Knight win.

    2-1 Angel-Hawk


  • Registered Users Posts: 25,560 ✭✭✭✭Kess73


    Hmmm I can see genuine reasons for each side to win.

    Is it Angel or his Angelus persona?

    If the latter, then I see him and Hawkman having some problems working as a team and with trust issues. Most likely it would be something that somebody with Cho's intellect and abilities could exploit. Distracting them enough to allow Moonknight to slice and dice, or maybe even casuing the pair to fight each other, leaving the weary and bloodied victor staggering towards a fresh and ready moonknight.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 47,802 Mod ✭✭✭✭cyberwolf77


    Yes, it is Angel, not Angelus


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,905 ✭✭✭✭Handsome Bob


    Hawkman takes flight carelessly to which Angel takes issue with. While Angel is insulting his ally's lack of tactical know how, Hawkman is wide open prey for Moon Knight to put multiple darts through him. It's just Angel against Moon Knight and Amadeus Cho now.

    Amadeus Cho has a safe distance from the battle. He preps Moon Knight by phone on how to anticipate Angel's moves, but in his supreme arrogance doesn't realise that Angel has the beat on him. Cho slumps to the ground with his throat ripped out.

    That leaves Angel and Moon Knight.

    Moon Knight feels he can still beat Angel. However MK suffers a prophetic vision and he sees that Angel is the one true champion that will stare down the apocalypse. Thus MK retreats into the shadows of the night, fully accepting that it is not his place to take the life of earth's one true hope of salvation.

    Angel-Hawk FTW


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,746 ✭✭✭✭FewFew


    Cho is the eight smartest man on the planet? Pft, he can feck off, reading his Wiki you'd think he could take down Galactus, but c'mon, look at all the people who are smarter than him and get their asses whupped all the time.

    Moon Knight doesn't get the fact that Angel is a vampire and goes about the fight as if he's taking on a human, too late he notices the darts that manage to land only slightly slow the boy down. The face goes all scrunchy, Moon Knight relies on his fighting techniques, but c'monnnnn Angel has fought massively strong demons, gods, ninjas, puppets... feck off Moon Knight, you're dead mate.

    Cho thinks he can predict Hawkman's flight and make him smash into an obstacle, but Cho doesn't realise that the wings are actually gravitiy defying metal, so ultimately behave in an unnatural manner, as Cho suddenly realises his mistake and calculates an alternative plan... he gets a battle axe in the face.

    Angelhawk wins!


  • Registered Users Posts: 25,560 ✭✭✭✭Kess73


    Yes, it is Angel, not Angelus



    In that case I would go with Angel Hawk to win.

    Songbird has recruited Spike to help her find someone who can return her lost love to life. Their search has brought them to New Orleans. Unfortunately for them Brother Voodoo is aware they are coming and has asked Dr. McCoy for assistance in dealing with these unwanted guests


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 29,509 Mod ✭✭✭✭randylonghorn


    Spike will be too busy spiking Songbird to notice the arrival of Voodoo and the Beast.

    Unless they have a voyeuristic streak and get distracted, they will literally catch him with his pants down and, with an irony Dr. Freud would no doubt appreciate, stake them both as they lay.

    Songbird's dying screams may cause some collateral damage, but this one goes to Voodoo / Beast

    Votes like this make me fear posting the battle involving Black Canary, Poison Ivy, and Buffy


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 44,501 ✭✭✭✭Deki


    Spike is always over confident,This causes him to not take threats seriously, Slowing his reaction time. In this case Brother Voodoo uses a spell to confuse and weaken Spike. This allows Beast to incapacitate Spike who in his confused state doesn't see it coming. Brother Voodoo then focuses on Songbird and using more mysticism confuses her mind as well. The Beast uses his claws to slash the throat of the songstress -silencing her forever.

    BEAST AND BROTHER VOODOO WINNERS.:)

    Hi Deki! Sounds like a soup opera. Ever thought of screenwriting for them?


  • Registered Users Posts: 25,560 ✭✭✭✭Kess73


    Voodoo sends the spirit of his brother into Songbird, turning it into a three on one fight.

    Songbird's sonics then get used to disorientate Spike or just to capture him in a solid light projection, binding his arms, legs, head. He is held prone long enough for Beast to come along with a stake to finish the job.

    Voodoo Beast then have the possessed songbird fly full speed into something sharp and game over.


    Voodoo Beast for the win.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 47,802 Mod ✭✭✭✭cyberwolf77


    Voodoo-Beast take an impressive 3-0 lead.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 8,561 Mod ✭✭✭✭Rhyme


    Ready to withstand verbal assault, Beast and Voodoo hang back and try to flank Songbird and Spike but nothing can hold up against Songbirds secret weapon... the Brown Note.

    The opposition evacuate their bowels and with extended listening, their innards. Game over.


  • Registered Users Posts: 44,080 ✭✭✭✭Micky Dolenz


    Spike is used to being tracked, many slayers have hunted him, he in return, killed at least two of them. he is too old and street wise to be jumped.

    I think he would give the Beast a run for his money in a 1 on 1. Songbirds powers are handy, Voodoo doesn't impress me much.

    SpikeyBird for the win


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,746 ✭✭✭✭FewFew


    First off... what an odd picture of Beast that is.

    Anyhows, Voodoo is on his home ground. In these situations home ground advantage is a big one. He knows New Orleans and how and where to attack.

    If Screaming Mimi was in this fight, I'd most likely go for her to win, but this malleable sound lark is a bit poor.

    Voodoo will use his brother to possess Songbird, taking her out of the game.

    Beast is massively intelligent and has agility far surpassing Spikes. Yes, Spike has taken on a Slayer or two in the past, so it'll be a decent fight, but I reckon Beast will out maneuver Spike and ultimately get to a position where Voodoo can use Songbird to stab spike with a solid sound steak through the heart.

    Beast and Voodoo win.
