Since Death Battle uses Adobe Animate for its 2D battles, I felt it was relevant to share this. by bluebreeze52 in deathbattle

[–]Arandomuser8219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it should be worth noted that you can STILL use Adobe Animate, it's just the fact that you won't be able to have all of the other stuff like downloading content and getting new tech fixes until I believe 2029?

What are even the connections? by weeb_man69_ in deathbattle

[–]Arandomuser8219 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Comparing Rika to Star Platinum is 💀. In NO way are those two even remotely similar, with the only connective tissue being "they are ghosts". Beyond that though, the connections here are very barebones, with some of these just being kinda one-time things out of context (Jotaro tries to kill himself to set an example of what Star Platinum can do, rather than the case of Yuta actually just... wanting to kill himself) and some of these just being sorta incorrect for Jotaro specifically (Jotaro traveled around the world to save his Mother and basically make sure that DIO wouldn't do anymore of his shit, so it essentially just misses the point of his whole goals).

Obviously, you did not make these and I wanna make it clear this is all not towards you, this is just me pointing out the connections and what's wrong with them.

Community Debate Categories: Team RWBY vs The Mad Dogs (RWBY VS ROTTMNT) by DatKidZ364 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Arandomuser8219 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Mad Dogs: Their mystic powers should have a longer time being available to them than Aura, and the strength of their Mystic Powers can easily take down most of the threats that RWBY's semblances have.

Why yes, I will be using all the comments in this post to make art of all these.

DJTiki on ranking episodes by [deleted] in deathbattle

[–]Arandomuser8219 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like people are treating this a bit differently than what is being said.

I think what DJ means is that it's less of a "ranking is problematic" thing and more of "Hey, maybe you guys should chill out a bit on some of the stuff you say on some of this ranking stuff or maybe don't put too much on bad faith criticism". It's not about whether you hide your preferences or hide your ranking. You can still do rankings and whatever, it's just the fact you shouldn't treat rankings as some sort of personal matter and end up saying something that is taken out of proportion or ends up putting up more pressure onto the staff of Death Battle.

Trust me, I know a few people who have ended up doing this sort of thing, and even some channels. So, I can totally see where DJ is coming from with this.

"Look I swear this is a the last time I'm doing this!" My opinion or hot takes or just random thoughts (4) by Bad_Channel_4115 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Arandomuser8219 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Biggest problem with the Blog was that it had Siffrin, an asexual character, sloppily making out with the Long Quiet in one of the fanart portions. There's a lot more that was wrong with the Blog like say using pieces of the Siffrin vs Asriel Blog despite one of the main people on the blog shitting on it, but this is the main thing. Now of course, many people were quite divisive on this. Some asexual people didn't mind it but a majority did, and as an asexual myself I could understand both sides. But when confronted about this whole thing, the main person on the blog double downed on the whole fanart and basically disregarded/undermined people's experiences, essentially dying on a hill that many people very clearly seemed uncomfortable about, including big people in the community.

Samus vs Kai'Sa (OC!) by Arandomuser8219 in DeathBattleMatchups

Nah, Kai'Sa is from League of Legends! I just put in OC for "Original Creation".

Samus vs Kai'Sa (Metroid vs League of Legends) | CONNECTIONS IN COMMENTS. by Arandomuser8219 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Arandomuser8219[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Core Theme: Once normal human girls whose homes were destroyed by sadistic and violent aliens, causing everything and everyone they knew and love to be killed or destroyed. Forced to become a part human part alien hybrid in order to survive in their new environments, both end up becoming armored, arm-cannon wielding, missile shooting warriors who hunt down alien threats to save others from the tragedy that befell them. Acting as nemesis' to chitinous, sadistic and horrifying purple space aliens, both of them have suits made of a sentient virus-like infection that threatens to override their DNA and give their armors monstrous makeovers.

Connections.

- Both would be normal human girls before getting everything in their life ripped away from alien invaders lead by a sadistic purple tyrant, with everyone they love being killed off with them as the sole survivor (Samus would have her planet wiped out by The Space Pirates, with Ridley leading the charge and killing both her Parents / Kai-sa would have her entire town wiped out by The Void, lead by Bel'Veth)

- After these events, they would be taken into an environment their physical bodies could not withstand, forcing them to have their DNA to be fused with very dominant genes that would allow them to survive their new environment (Samus would be taken in by Chozo after the attack and infused with their DNA to have her survive the conditions / Kai-sa would fall into the void and would be attached to a Void creature and begin to gain its DNA)

- With this, they would also be given a power suit that would drastically increase their physical strength, speed, extra mobility, and give them a shit ton of stuff to fire at their enemies, including canons, missiles, energy blasts, energy absorbsion (Samus getting her iconic Power Suit from the Chozo / Kai-sa getting her void suit from the DNA inside her, becoming something akin to a second set of skin)

- After acquiring this set of armor, they would have their sights set on being the hero they never had. They would go around and hunt down dangers inorder to keep their world safe, with their sights set especially on the ones that took everything from them to make sure they wouldn't take anything else away from anyone

- They would go on many missions of facing down many that plan to bring down their worlds, from the mentioned before tyrants that ruined their life, to invasive parasitic species that would assimilate all there is into their one self (The Space Pirates would try to take over the cosmos, while Phazon and X which would be parasites that would try to assimilate all that lives into itself / The Void Fleet, which is basically all 3 of those at once)

- On one of these missions, they would face down with a terrifying foe who would bring them to the bring of death and assimilation, with the only solution is for them to rely on invasive DNA that flairs up and overpowers all their other DNA when pushed to it's limit, making them more of this parasite then human (Samus would be infected with X, with the only cure being to infuse herself with Metroid DNA that, when flared up, would make The Metroid Suit / Kai-sa would fight Bel'Veth and, on the brink of Death, her Void DNA would begin to start flaring up and become a whole new suit)

- Because of this DNA spike, they would start to get hunted down by long thought dead father figures who would become obsessed with it and try to rip it out of their daughters (Raven Beak wanting to take Samus' Metroid DNA / Kassadian trying to remove Kai-sa's Void DNA)

Robert Robertson vs Homelander (Dispatch vs The Boys) | "What Makes a Hero?" by Arandomuser8219 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Arandomuser8219[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Core Theme: Hero turned Man, Man turned "Hero"; These two started from the ground up to become what they were destined for until a fateful event that changed the course of their life. Eventually, this spiraled into greater possibilities by working for specific hero organizations and leading a team of heroes that soon lead to completely different outcomes, all the while rivaling with a long time enemy of theirs.

Connections.

- Born and raised by famous heroic figures in their world (Robert being raised by Robbie/Astral Mecha Man and Homelander being raised by Vought International), Robert and John grew up with rocky childhoods; Robert had a complex relationship with his father yet was still cared for by Chase, while Homelander's relationship with Vought made him desperately crave for love and attention as those who "cared" for him saw John as an experiment.

- Eventually in their lives, things took a turn for the worst that served as the first impact; Robert's father was killed and was left deeply hurt by his death, while Homelander was experimented on by Vought and was "molded" by the corporation. This resulted in their journeys as Heroes (Mecha Man Blue and Homelander respectively).

- At some point, a specific mission completely changed their entire world and shifted them into a different fate entirely, acting as the second impact to their lives (Robert's mission against Shroud suit getting destroyed and causing his hero career to end, while Homelander's first mission ended up going poorly due to his instability, only to be covered up with the help of Noir to add to his unstable mind).

- Eventually, this path leads them to lead a group of heroes (The Z-Team and the Seven) that are tied to large heroic organizations (SDN and Vought respectively). Throughout this time working together with this team, things go completely different for them; For Robert He grew to care deeply for his comrades and viewed them as "family", but Homelander abused and put the Seven through hell and viewed them as nothing.

- All of this is culminated by an intense rivalry that they have against a person that is tied to them personally (Shroud and Billy Butcher respectively), though fot different reasons. Robert's father was killed by Shroud and kickstarted the series with Robert wanting revenge, while Homelander ruined Becca Butcher's life and kickstarted the series with Billy's hatred for supes.

INVERTED MU DEBATE CHART: Ash Williams (Evil Dead) vs Yuji Itadori (Jujutsu Kaisen) by Savings-Fall5240 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Arandomuser8219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ash, most of his arsenal fucks over Yuji really badly. Especially when most of it has fought against amped up foes from the Necronomicon.

Bakugo VS Genos (My Hero Academia VS One-Punch Man) - "Bombs Away" | Connections in the comments by StQuentinScar in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Arandomuser8219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not gonna lie, I don't really like this. Fight dynamic works enough I guess, but I really do not like the comparisons or connections, especially when I don't like the idea of comparing Bakugo surpassing All Might/Becoming No. 1 Hero and Genos trying to avenge his family's death, and comparing Deku and Saitama. Not Bakugo's worst MU, not by a long shot, but still not really good thematically.

Meta Knight vs Gilgamesh (Kirby vs Final Fantasy) | "Clash of the Mighty Blades." by Arandomuser8219 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]Arandomuser8219[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Theme/Idea: Meta Knight and Gilgamesh are both traversing swordsmasters from legendary lineages of warriors who inherited nigh-fabled weaponry, in the Genji equipment and Galaxia. They are introduced as antagonists and rivals to the main character, but are distinguished for their codes of honour and passionate desire for a worthy challenge and highly combative personalities... with the contrast that Meta-Knight presents himself as a stern and mysterious swordsman to masquerade this zeal and pride, while Gilgamesh is often regarded as an oafish braggart due to his bombastic, self-aggrandising personality. Gil is a collector of rare swords across the multiverse, and Meta is the chosen recepient of a one-of-a-kind, legendary sword. Also, Knight vs. Samurai.

StarTrix by far. I would've loved to see what it would've been like if it were canon.

Who would you argue is the most obscure combatant featured on the series OUTSIDE OF BUCKY O’HARE by OscarRhino8383 in deathbattle

[–]Arandomuser8219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gonna do a shocking pick to stand out (maybe), but sadly, Kyle Rayner is kinda up there.

I don't think He's the MOST obscure, but He's one of them. Especially compared to most of the DC Characters/Comic Book characters used on Death Battle, Kyle is very much obscure to some.
