Michael Corvin Vs. Sabertooth

Text-only Version: Click HERE to see this thread with all of the graphics, features, and links.



Madness Hero
no healing factors, and both have an equal level of strength

Rogue Jedi
Sabretooth is a mutated human, Michael is a mutated vampire/werewolf. Corvin pwns, faster and stronger.

Placidity
Corvin rips Creed's head off.

Rogue Jedi
Creed laughing out loud He takes him higher.

Placidity
But really, we haven't seen much of Creed's feats. This would be a better topic after X-men Origins comes out. Also remove the assumptions that they have equal strength and HF ... :O

Rogue Jedi
Wolverine versus Corvin would be a better thread.

Placidity
Hmm... Wolverine would eventually win though.

Rogue Jedi
Sure about that? Wolvie can be knocked out, you know.

Placidity
Hmm... yes, now that I think about it:

- X1 - Tree branch to head.

- X2 - Bullet to head.

But then again, Michael's HF can't help him if Wolverine slices anything off, like his arm, or head.

Rogue Jedi
True.

Tommy Jarvis
Couldn't Michael potentially heal from a missing arm? Maybe not during the fight but eventually?

Still, Corvin would pwn Sabertooth badly.

KingD19
Actually, the bullet didn't knock him out, he got up, like a couple seconds later. But, Wolverine and Creed have skeletons made out of unbreakable metal, and claws made out of unbreakable metal, so I don't really know. Wolverine and Creed are definitely better trained fighters than Corwin though.

Placidity
Creed doesn't have the adamantium skeleton or claws.

HF: Corvin>Creed. Only reason for this is because he comes back after dying. In battle, Creed might actually have a superior HF.

Durability: Corvin>Creed

Strength: ?

Speed/Agility: Creed>Corvin

The feats that come to mind...

Corvin:
- Stabs his hands through Lycans with ease
- Rips the first and most powerful Lycan's head off.
- Regenerates after dying.


Creed:
- Being very agile (Origins Trailer)
- Wacks Wolvie some distance with a big ass tree.
- Recovers quickly after being stabbed by 6 blades into the chest/lungs (at which point he yells in pain which he shouldn't be able to wink )
- Recovers quickly after being struck by lightning.

KingD19
Actually, the only reason he really won the fight with William so easily is because he had been confined in a tomb for 800 years with no food, blood, or water.

Although it would be a good fight to see regardless.

Well, that might be the reason. But its still pure speculation. Afterall, he is immortal, he doesn't need food or water. Lycan's also don't need blood, Vampires do.

Also, it wouldn't be so far-fetched to believe Corvin is powerful enough to take William at his peak anyway if we go with your speculation.

One important thing to remember is that Lycans don't grow more powerful over time like Elder Vampires. So William, after the centuries, is still only a Lycan and theres no real reason to think he can take a Hydrid.

What about X3? Juggernaught to the head didn't do squat. erm

But you're assuming that Werewolves wouldn't be equally weakened by being put in confinement as Vampires as well. Given how weak Victor was, and given the fact that William was tombed up even longer than that, if Werewolves need any food for sustenance and strength then it's not unreasonable to assume that William was messed up somethin fierce.
It'd be a bit illogical to think that they were raiding country sides because they're mean. I would assume it was for food.

Yeah it is, considering the fact that Victor overpowered Micheal and Victor would be nowhere close to Williams strength if vamp/werewolf strength is proportional between pawns and elders....

And he isn't a lycan... he's a werewolf... Lycans are the halfbreeds spawned from Lucian I thought that's been made fairly clear by now.

In battle I don't think "might" even covers it. More like definitely.
Creed took 6 adamantium claws to his chest in the area of the heart, lungs, and aorta all in the same fight and wasn't even phased. Corvin took a pole to the chest and was down for the count.

Wanting food and needing food is completely different. Vampires are weakened after their slumber because they require blood. Lycans don't. If Lycans require food, then William should've turned into a little skinny werewolf after 800 years, that's exactly what happens to Elder Vampires. Don't get me wrong, I'm not in a position to dismiss your theory, but mine makes more sense to me.

Victor has how many years of experience of fighting compared to Michael? Who pretty much got his powers on the same day. He was not only inexperienced, but I would say he put up a good fight but lost. But I don't understand the point you are trying to make... Your example compares Hybrids to Vampires. Where does William/Lycans come in?

Which event are you referring to? I'd like to point out Victor has on two occasions killed a Lycan with a single punch and man-handled one with one hand without effort.

No... Lycan is the term for werewolves in Underworld. They different kinds are differentiated by 1st and 2nd Generations.

Ok, you're using the feats I listed against me like I didn't already know about them...

But anyway, Corvin deals with all the crap despite having a weaker HF, that has to be attributed to his durability. Creed, has a better HF, but I dunno if his durability is equally high, so I guess I'm just speculating. But after thinking about it, I think you've convinced me...

Durability: Creed>Corvin

I don't recall any real speed or agility feats from Michael. But if you watch the Origins trailer, I think you will change your mind.

KingD19
Micheal moved so fast he was behind Viktor before he realized he had left. Remember their fight?

KingD19
And to add more to what Placidity said, a lycan, especially a 1st generation, uncontrollable beast lycan craves food more than it needs it, even though it does need it. They're similar to a zombie. William was trapped for 800 years, and while he was severely weakened when he got out of the cage he was in, he was more than likely strong enough to beat anyone other than a hybrid.

Tommy Jarvis
Michael wasn't at full power either, and he still won. Keep in mind whenever Michael isn't at full power his face appears more human, whereas it appears more like a werewolf when he is at full power. But I'd like to think the soldiers William was chomping on was enough to get his power up...guess not.

He was overpowering a hybrid, holding him down, or when he was pushed up against a wall and reversed positions on Corvin.
Corvin did not in the least prove he was more physically capible than an elder other than MAYBE explosive speed.

Where does William/Lycans come in? I'm fairly certain that it was clearly indicated that William was too powerful for any one vampire to engage in combat with regardless of class.

Selene states in the first 5 minutes of the first movie "Older more powerful lycans are able to transform at will"....

Weaker lycans were going down to a few rounds, Lucian took multiple rounds, pushed them out, and chased Selene down in a car... it's not hard to see the difference.

Victor fighting pawns is pretty irrelivent to William.

Wouldn't be the first time.

He was pushed out of an apartment building upside down and landed on his feet, was vanishing from victor and appearing behind him midfight, and is a hybrid of vamp/werewolf. Selene was zipping around a forest like she was in fast forward in II.

He wasn't at full strength. I don't know how anyone can even begin to think this is debateable or think that he was anywhere close. He was also shot to shit by handgun and chaingun rounds before Michael even engaged him.

KingD19
That's what I said, you didn't read my post? I said William was caged up for 800 yrs, and he was still strong enough to take anyone other than a hybrid. And he took those bullets like they were nothing.

jinzin
Yeah I read your post, it insinuates that he was still near top strength. He wasn't.

And he took those bullets and stood up to them, doesn't mean he was uneffected by them as well. erm

KingD19
Never said he was full strength, but he was the 1st werewolf, which meant that even drastically weakened like he was, he could probably take anyone less than another elder or a hybrid.

jinzin
lol okay

Not really, he was captured by a few vampires back 800 years ago when the Vampire race was still quite new and the "Elders" weren't that old at all, and hence much less powerful.

Actually, the first generation of Lycans, like William, couldn't transform at will... They were forever beasts.

Lucian is "special", also, all first generation Lycans also obey him. He has been the only one to have these special abilities and it isn't because of his age.

And did I not make the point to explain it as I saw it as a difference between HF's and Durability? It seems you're looking for any chance to trivial argument, even when I've agreed with you on that point.

And when would be the first time then exactly? Quite frankly, I'm trying to have a civil debate with you, but your condescending attitude is hard to tolerate.

Again, if you think William wasn't the first Lycan (not to mention the other multiple factual errors you have made), then please stop debating Underworld topics because you clearly don't know what you are talking about.

KingD19
Didn't Markus help calm William when he was captured? I can't remember for sure, but I remember Markus with a crossbow, and him talking to William.

Nar, Marcus was against them harming William. He just arrived after they captured him with the cross-bows and he tried to stop them.

KingD19

William wasn't older either so that's irrelivent.

I'm saying that Selene makes a statement that cements the fact that older Lycans are more powerful. So your assertion that they aren't is not only completely baseless but rides agaist existing evidence.

Originally posted by Placidity

The only ability that Lucian showed which could not be attributed to age was his ability to call on Werewolves. The bullet thing. Raze also shruggs off multiple silver wounds like nothing.


How can you continue to argue that older lycans AREN'T more powerful as well? confused

Yup, and your explaination doesn't change the fact that all insinuations given William> any single Vampire in combat.

No, you must mean how I wasn't aware that Micheal ever displayed mass amounts of speed and agil.... NO that was you too.
Oh wait I know! eek! How about how Werewolves don't need food for hundreds of years and it not effecting performance... Oh no,, you again! I guess the lycans were fighting in their cages for food because the sheer taste of gruel is so great right? roll eyes (sarcastic)

Werewolves are not the same as Lycans. According to the third film Lucian is flat out stated to be the first Lycan.
You can see the sheer difference in their appearance as well as states of mind which is referenced constantly. The difference between you and I is that I'm taking what the films state at face value, your reading in between lines that don't exist and somehow coming to the conclusion that your right. It's as bad as the numbskulls who think the whole hybrid plotline had to do with beating Viktor.

I've openly said I could've been incorrect about the Lycans being stronger over time theory, and I was.

I never said Michael wasn't fast. I said I couldn't remember.

Whether or not Lycans need food for hundreds of years is debatable, it is not a "fact". Why aren't they skinny like vampires?

However, you got something basic wrong by saying William is a "werewolf" and Lucian being the first Lycan.

It's a retcon as far as I'm concerned. Vik says flat out that Lucian is the first Lycan in the third film.
The appearance of the werewolves, is also drastically changed from being of similar appearance to the first movie, to looking more identical to William.

Do you remember where abouts in the film he says that?

It wouldn't make sense to retcon something in a prequel though.

Anyway, Viktor is fallible whereas the introduction I posted is accurate, unless in the highly unlikely case that it was retconned, which I would say is an unsubstantiated speculation.

In the very beginning.

I agree that a prequel isn't a good place to make retcons but they did that quite a bit.

Raze's entire backstory for instance, got dismantled and retold completely different from how it was originated.

The intro is accurate up to part 2, if part 3 makes retcons.. well...
