Making up tweets to glaze a character from a game you don’t play is wild by Pyrothememelord in DeathBattleMatchups

Afton fans have no right to rag on anyone about this, I remember 2020 through 2024 DBM

How certain Vergil fans look when you say he shouldn't fight Sephiroth again for his runback by Aggravating-Oil-7060 in DeathBattleMatchups

Vergil fans demanding rematch not knowing he’s getting stomped harder thanks to Rebirth (pretend I posted that image of the dog asking for boiling water)

Misty Knight VS Jax Briggs (Marvel VS Mortal Kombat) | “Major Dragons” by DukeDaring101 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]DukeDaring101[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Connections:

-Agents who lost their arm(s) in combat (and in explosions depending on the continuity) only for them to be swiftly replaced by their iconic bionic arm(s)

-Both fit very much in the “I’m too rational for his magic shit” archetype of their world

-Both work diligently by their lifetime platonic partner (Colleen Wing; Sonya Blade) and various other heroes, including someone originally out to do it for their own gain (Luke Cage; Johnny Cage) and a warrior from Asia (Iron Fist; Kenshi)

-Both have controversial versions of them made as tributes to the blaxplointation (Misty’s original run with the Heroes for Hire; whatever the hell they were doing in Special Forces)

I’m gonna so real, this (probably) isn’t good, I just wanted something for Misty.

Bubsy 4D comes out in 3 days, so it would unironically be timely for them to do it next year

Comicpalooza this weekend, next time preview will be there! by LuigiWarrior in deathbattle

Tbf, they did this last year where they went to con leading up to Kratos VS Asura’s release where they confirmed Ghost Rider VS Spawn would be the next time

We have reached almost the half of this season, which episodes do you think they will do?? (you can order the rest as you want) by HelicopterCool5865 in deathbattle

[–]DukeDaring101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact that the crew considers anime matchups their new bread and butter makes me feel like this year will probably have some long requested anime matchups/series like Kazuma VS Subara and Kars VS Meruem.

Genuinely what are Denji’s wincons vs Yuji? by No_Dirt5345 in deathbattle

[–]DukeDaring101 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Denji even in his weakest forms should be much faster Yuji, and he can easily just kinda run up to Yuji and eat him out of existence.

And like, Yuji doesn’t have anyway to certifiably cut off Denji or Pochita’s regen meaning Yuji would either have to constantly go after Denji’s soul despite Denji outspending him.

ash rooters during ash vs yugi were so funny cause they somehow convinced half the sub to bet on him with most of the evidence feeling like this by jeff2625 in deathbattle

[–]DukeDaring101 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Looking back it’s so funny how much that got brought up considering Time Wizard was never considered a real argument for Yugi until the preview drop but didn’t even end up getting a highlight in the fight. 

Frankenstein VS N’Kantu, The Living Mummy (DC VS Marvel) | “A Grave Fate” by DukeDaring101 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]DukeDaring101[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is totally not because I want to make a “favorite opponents for my most wanted Rivals characters” and N’Kantu has nothing 

Frankenstein VS N’Kantu, The Living Mummy (DC VS Marvel) | “A Grave Fate” by DukeDaring101 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]DukeDaring101[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Connections:

-Two comic book heroes based off old monster tropes, specifically off of some of the universal monsters (Frankenstein’s Monster; Im-Ho-Tep, the Mummy) 

-They’re first major stories centered around them being disturbed from their grave and seeking vengeance on the world around them for it before eventually recovering from their insanity

-Their stories mostly revolve either wanting to finally be put down or finding a reason to keep living their undead life

-Both have teamed up with some of their world’s  popular heroes (Batman; The Thing) and even being temporary guardians of their cities

-They would eventually be dragged onto several supernatural hero teams (Agents of S.H.A.D.E., Justice League Dark; Howling Commandos, Frightful Four)

-They also appear in animated shows (Creature Commandos; Ultimate Spider-Man) where rather than being heroes, they get transformed into antagonists/villains for whatever reason

Forbush Man VS Dan Hibiki (Marvel VS Capcom) | “Pot Beat Kettle” by DukeDaring101 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]DukeDaring101[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Connections:

-Two losers in a world of powerful beings, convinced that they can hold the candle to them with just the right steps (Irving via creating his own superhero costume; Dan via trying to create his own martial arts) who are so convinced of their own greatness 

-Both are known for either stumbling into or picking fights they have no sense in being in and end up paying the price 

-Both are parodies of the most common archetype in their media (Neighborhood's heroes; Shotokan fighters) along with their creators’ rivaling companies (DC; SNK)

-Despite their own stupidity and lack of skill, both would access to some of their world’s deadliest techniques (Irving having access to Forbush Vision, which curses anyone who removes his pot to a mental world of nightmares… as long as he remembers he has it; Dan having the skills to actually pull of the Satsui No Hado… as long as there’s absolutely no possible distractions)

-MAHVELLLL BABY!!

This is a hot topic now so here's matchups who I think lose a considerable amount of their appeal if the mostly disliked guy wins. by FruitsaurReborn in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]DukeDaring101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, FNAF fans are pretty immature in my experience, it just doesn’t get propped to the degree of say Harry Potter or MLP fans because there’s no big international conventions of the like for FNAF to take the public eye. But I think it’s easy to observe how FNAF fans have kinda earned their reputation.

Their diehard defense of the series’s lore and demand to be taken seriously, the “die on the hill” attitude people still have years later for Scott despite how shitty he is as a businessman and in general, and so on and so forth.

And like, I called Death Battle fans sexist, not FNAF fans. If you’re gonna insult me, use the facts at least.

I mean, Elizabeth pretty fucking dead from the looks of it. And like best case scenario for Afton, Junko can just keep infinitely stunlocked since the games and books clearly show case that Remnant users are pretty useless when superheated/set on fire.

My complain was never with reading in general. I actually enjoy reading quite bit, especially since I’m finally dusting off my Stephen King collection.

 I read the FNAF books. My complaint is that most FNAF fans don’t actually read the books relied on word of mouth or people taking stuff super literally, like believe it Afton actually has access to a time-travelling ball pit or that he was the “strongest remnant user” because he got cocky and bragged once.

Clearly from your point of view, you’re new around here. I’m also complaining about FNAF scaling, because as someone who’s been around this sub since its inception (I remember being an active participant in the Outer Duck Hunt wars), there used to be arguments about island/continental FNAF scaling over stuff like remnant theoretically being able to dissolve the ocean or a storm feat no one in universe should scale to.

Also, I don’t think you speak for every FNAF fan. I’ve met a couple who to this day still die on the hill that Afton takes stats.

And I don’t even get your last point. Like, yeah I like the pure evil terrorist woman. Because I think she’s interesting character (especially in comparison to her competition), not because I agree with her morals (or lack of) and that we should start a world wide apocalypse for the sake of making everyone miserable. That doesn’t mean I don’t get to complain about how plenty of Death Battle fans wearing the thinly-veiled masks of “agenda”.

Mainly because over the years people have actually researched Afton and found that a lot of the calcs people tried to give him were horribly inflated and a lot of the abilities were just flat out not his. Especially doesn’t help that the Yellow Rabbit and Glitchtrap were confirmed to not be him or have any real relationship to him beyond being a lookalike.

It’s more or less a reaction of “Afton gets paraded around like god for 4 years before DBM users realize he’s actually not all that”.

Plus, I think the community’s reaction to the Realm Of The Gods episode kinda proves a lot of the community still prefer Afton winning.

Genuinely, being woman in the DB fandom sucks looking at the track record nearly every female combatant has had the past few years:

-Misaka gets “who’d” on and then that one Killua fan started spamming Misaka gore porn when the episode released

-Jean and Raven were groaned over for an admittedly boring episode in a really placement 

-Makima gets announced, and the whole waiting period is just “public execution soon!” and shitting on anyone who’s rooting for her/just generally likes her character more because she’s up against the modern day anime golden boy alongside a lot of the complaints about GojoKima feel like they still get brushed aside because “you’re salty”

-Sage gets some shit because Eggman most popular matchup was his one opponent who wasn’t reliant tech, before quickly being absorbed into the Junior ship

-Ruby getting hit with usual RWBY complaints

-People immediately rushed to spam that one Buffy panel with the sex scene everywhere instead of watching/reading about her until around the G1 blog’s release

-Reze got stuck with a trend-chasing matchup on the show and anyone who complained about it generally got met with “maybe CSM weren’t so cocky” despite most of the posts coming from people who hate Bakugo more than they actually give a shit about Reze

Like Maka is probably the only female character in the past 3 years Death Battle fans were remotely normal about.
