Sol has the same weakness as Ragna more or less; if he overuses his power, he'll go insane and kill everyone.

Oh really? Can anyone confirm that? Because they're the protagonists of two of the most breakout fighting games of recent years and made by the same company with similar attributes.

Hmm, well if we compare Ryu vs. Scorpion; Ryu probably would have won, but Scorpion was in hell, where he naturally gets stronger so it ultimately came down to how long Ryu would last. Ragna vs. Sol will probably be similar; how long before Ragna drains Sol of his life. Either Ragna gets his ass handed to him quickly by Sol, or Ragna wins because every Soul Eater attacks stacks.

According to Death Battle, Superman is :V

So it's Goku vs. Superman all over again.

Well Dea Wouldn't Sol have an easier time getting in because he can just YRC his IAD into a normal? In any case, I don't think Death Battle takes system mechanics into account but rather just basic attacks and abilities used by them; basically just the moves like Inferno Divider and Volcanic Viper and not the frame data behind them. Obviously innate abilities like Ragna's Soul Eater would probably apply due to it being related to it's plot point about it needing souls and some shit. So really, it's just down to who's normals and specials are better...even though Sol technically has more useful tools.

You're breaking my heart man. Xrd made me love Sol more too, but that doesn't mean Ragna suddenly sucks lol. Well on the flip side like was mentioned, GG characters take less damage the more damage they take. Ragna doesn't have a system like that. I guess Soul Eater technically counts here, but still.

Ya know what's funny about Ragna is that in CT, his hype is pretty similar to Sol's; everyone fears his Azure Grimoire, his feats of killing thousands of soldiers is constantly mentioned, and everyone treats like some walking path of destruction that nobody can beat. Then in CS and onward, they just kind of dropped that angle and made him look weak as fuck to the likes of Rachel, Terumi, Kagura, and Azrael. Even Jin punks his ass in CP eventually. It's like Mori didn't want him to be too much like Sol, so he just threw him in the other direction lol. In regards to this fight, at the very least I can see Ragna putting up a decent fight and giving Sol run for his money but ultimately, Sol is just overall more powerful. The only way this fight CAN be interesting is if both of them lose control of their power, or some Dues Ex Machina bullshit.

It's not really that, it's just the demographics are pretty far and apart.

You went off campus to school? That is legit, I should try that.

I noticed they removed the SMP on 6C.

Ragna has to literally against his own luck.

It varies depending on how smooth things go, but it's generally on time most of the time. Left me all alone with Elochai and the like ;A;

Poor Ragna, always the underdog.

I figured this is a relevant topic and hey, always good to have some fun discussion once in a while. Anywho, for those who don't follow the Death Battle series, a series which takes two similar characters from a respective series and pits them against each other in a fight to the...well, death. What's notable is that the creators actually do try to do as much research as possible on the characters and stay true to their abilities. Recently, it was announced that the protagonists of both Blazblue and Guilty Gear are going to go at it at the end of their latest video: You can see the preview at about 19:45 of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwzH7eSOwAc So guys, place your bets. Who do you think is going to win? Why do you think so? Just gonna watch the world burn.

So is this just the 2.0 patch coming to console, or is it a new balance patch entirely because I'm reading shit about it being 2.01.

Welcome to fighting games, where you pay for the same game about twice in its run.

I'm sure sales will pick up in 2015

We don't really have a measure of Jubei's full strength, but you can infer Hakumen's stronger based on the fact that Jubei got bodied by the Black Beast(lost an eye remember) while Hakumen was at least able to survive against it, no worse for wear.

Well this is good news, glad they're finally fleshing out the new blood.

Too tired, after finals.

Yo, imma start doing 5C>ODc and do that shit. See how many can block it.

Ya know what I see a lot of Hakumens do as of late, Renka(1)>Zantetsu. Is that easy to react to or what?

I remember this, my friend who was a 360 was so salty about this shit. So when can we expect the US release of CPE? It better be no more than a 2-3 month interval, there's no reason to delay just an update.

Everyone should just play Hakumen, that way nobody complains. Speaking of, ggs to Raiziul tonight. Hakumen mirrors are just what I needed after a final. Its pretty obvious though after like the fifth, it wasn't even yomi anymore, just...mash. and round start 3C CH will always be the best. And yes, my rusty shackles are loosening. I can feel it.
